| techrights[sec] | ^m$ edge | Feb 20 04:10 |
| schestowitz-pi | added a screenshot just now | Feb 20 04:10 |
| schestowitz-pi | yes, they managed to make chrome even more malicious | Feb 20 04:10 |
| techrights[sec] | https://www.windowscentral.com/how-prevent-microsoft-edge-chromium-installing-automatically-windows-10 | Feb 20 04:23 |
| techrights[sec] | Chrome is derivative of Chromium | Feb 20 04:23 |
| techrights[sec] | also | Feb 20 04:23 |
| techrights[sec] | Opera is also a derivative of Chromium | Feb 20 04:23 |

| -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-www.windowscentral.com | How to prevent new Microsoft Edge from installing automatically on Windows 10 | Windows Central | Feb 20 04:23 | |
| techrights[sec] | As are Falkon and Vivaldi, apparently. | Feb 20 04:23 |
| techrights[sec] | So it would be less accurate to call M$ Edge a copycat of Chrome and | Feb 20 04:23 |
| techrights[sec] | more accurate to call it what it is a derivative of Chromium | Feb 20 04:23 |
| schestowitz-pi | chrome is chromium WITH ADDTIONAL malware on top | Feb 20 04:24 |
| schestowitz-pi | edge is the same | Feb 20 04:24 |
| schestowitz-pi | and the addtional malware is likely worse | Feb 20 04:24 |
| schestowitz-pi | the objective is the same | Feb 20 04:24 |
| schestowitz-pi | falkon just uses the rendering engine | Feb 20 04:24 |
| schestowitz-pi | afaik, it does not add any crap on top | Feb 20 04:24 |
| schestowitz-pi | it blocks ads by default, too | Feb 20 04:24 |

| schestowitz-pi | different topic: while jogging (way to shop) i was thinking youtube might be next | Feb 20 11:46 |
| schestowitz-pi | to make compulsory charges like twitter and FB | Feb 20 11:46 |
| schestowitz-pi | what for? don't know | Feb 20 11:46 |
| schestowitz-pi | but adding lots of ads did not work | Feb 20 11:46 |
| schestowitz-pi | they pissed off everyone and revenue went DOWN, not UP | Feb 20 11:46 |
| schestowitz-pi | some people thought they had "job security" at gulag's youtube | Feb 20 11:46 |
| schestowitz-pi | ailing to grap it changes every yhear and chages a lot every 3 or 5 years | Feb 20 11:47 |
| schestowitz-pi | gulag is also notorious for shutting things down, e.g. stadia | Feb 20 11:47 |
| schestowitz-pi | imagine developing a game for that. no refund to you. | Feb 20 11:47 |
| techrights[sec] | YouTube is too convenient a means of manipulating the public so it is unlikely | Feb 20 11:50 |
| techrights[sec] | that they'll close it down or even reduce access much. | Feb 20 11:50 |
| techrights[sec] | But they do have a problem in that they have been pissing off and chasing away | Feb 20 11:50 |
| techrights[sec] | both their audience and their video producers. | Feb 20 11:50 |
| techrights[sec] | Fewer feel that they are obliged to stay on Youtube and are finding other | Feb 20 11:50 |
| techrights[sec] | platforms. The other platforms have some of the same problems and some new | Feb 20 11:50 |
| techrights[sec] | ones but will last long enough to be a threat to Youtube | Feb 20 11:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | correct me if I am wrong: | Feb 20 11:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | lbry and its offspring are not p2p like peeetube | Feb 20 11:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | or ? | Feb 20 11:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | decentralised is at least likely to last longer | Feb 20 11:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | like tpb/bittorrent/ipfs | Feb 20 11:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | no single point of failure, not even dns | Feb 20 11:52 |
| schestowitz-pi | barry kluer just wrote about youtube-dl (or offspring) breaking aagin | Feb 20 11:52 |
| schestowitz-pi | i think it's important, so put that in TM front page | Feb 20 11:52 |
| techrights[sec] | LBRY has not proven to be viable yet | Feb 20 11:52 |
| schestowitz-pi | if it is still techncially and legally/financially reliant on crypto-babble | Feb 20 11:54 |
| schestowitz-pi | then it is likely doomed in the long run | Feb 20 11:54 |
| schestowitz-pi | btw, the swiss army knife of gulag youtube informal api for videois under attack | Feb 20 11:54 |
| schestowitz-pi | many other programs rely/ied on it | Feb 20 11:54 |
| schestowitz-pi | maybe even invidious | Feb 20 11:54 |
| schestowitz-pi | rianne says many of the more recet videos are not compatible | Feb 20 11:54 |
| schestowitz-pi | maybe it's that fake 'drm' thing where you need to visit a url for a token | Feb 20 11:54 |
| techrights[sec] | s/crypto-babble/cryptocurrency-babble/ | Feb 20 12:11 |
| techrights[sec] | Youtube block their videos with loads of unskippable ads, there are often | Feb 20 12:11 |
| techrights[sec] | longer ads than the video itself. So, in short, there has been no reason to | Feb 20 12:11 |
| techrights[sec] | visit Youtube for many months, except for an occasional video linked to from | Feb 20 12:11 |
| techrights[sec] | outside without such ads. Those are rare. | Feb 20 12:11 |
| schestowitz-pi | thanks to your code I can get updates on indivious again | Feb 20 12:14 |
| schestowitz-pi | i have a cript, url.sh, to convert these to gemini and invidious | Feb 20 12:14 |
| schestowitz-pi | for some reason, probably the rss fields I target, i cannot get these feeds | Feb 20 12:14 |
| schestowitz-pi | to produce much | Feb 20 12:14 |
| schestowitz-pi | either way, a mixture of both works ok | Feb 20 12:14 |
| schestowitz-pi | i am still culling some more problematic domains | Feb 20 12:14 |
| schestowitz-pi | some of them came from thunderbird | Feb 20 12:14 |
| schestowitz-pi | and can be over a decade old | Feb 20 12:14 |
| techrights[sec] | np | Feb 20 12:40 |
| techrights[sec] | feeds tend to be low yield anyway but at least the script streamlines that | Feb 20 12:40 |
| techrights[sec] | process, even above and beyond what quiterss used to do | Feb 20 12:40 |
| schestowitz-pi | quiterss is very good for many things and the best among guis i have used | Feb 20 13:01 |
| schestowitz-pi | but to me there were several limitations | Feb 20 13:01 |
| schestowitz-pi | some of them profound | Feb 20 13:01 |
| schestowitz-pi | and the longer i do not use it, the more remorse i feel about staying with it | Feb 20 13:01 |
| schestowitz-pi | trill the disk died | Feb 20 13:01 |
| techrights[sec] | There were some good things about QuiteRSS but a great many shortcomings. | Feb 20 13:04 |
| techrights[sec] | There are many shortcomings with the script but for me it saves about 50% to | Feb 20 13:04 |
| techrights[sec] | 60% of the /effort/ However, I am not a neutral party in that. ;) | Feb 20 13:04 |
| schestowitz-pi | depends on the use cases and untapped potential | Feb 20 13:09 |
| schestowitz-pi | to whit | Feb 20 13:09 |
| schestowitz-pi | some stuff i did before i do faster now | Feb 20 13:09 |
| schestowitz-pi | and also,as a perk, some things I did not envision before | Feb 20 13:09 |
| schestowitz-pi | are not possible, such as in-line links for blockquotes | Feb 20 13:09 |
| schestowitz-pi | this enriches TM and TR | Feb 20 13:09 |
| schestowitz-pi | this even includes "proper" nesting, styles, and <ul> <ol> lists | Feb 20 13:09 |
| schestowitz-pi | and I am still learning and adapting | Feb 20 13:09 |
| schestowitz-pi | i also widened scope of view to general/politics and _back_ to patents | Feb 20 13:09 |
| schestowitz-pi | trademarks etc. | Feb 20 13:09 |
| schestowitz-pi | i left the latter due to a lack of time and poor s/n ratio when the items were collected | Feb 20 13:09 |
| schestowitz-pi | via gulag noise until late 2021 | Feb 20 13:09 |
| schestowitz-pi | i am still modtifying some code to make the workflow smoother and less error-prone | Feb 20 13:09 |
| schestowitz-pi | ass for kde plasma, i ended up using mostly cli and kate for everything, even p/w management | Feb 20 13:09 |
| schestowitz-pi | it's just a lot faster for most things, if you have the patientce | Feb 20 13:09 |
| schestowitz-pi | and then you can psss it to another machine without ssh _X (-X forwarding) | Feb 20 13:09 |
| schestowitz-pi | so in effence one single laptop can have 9 heads, and right now I type into the pi400 | Feb 20 13:09 |
| schestowitz-pi | but it is actaully pi->ssh vonick->ssh ytalk | Feb 20 13:09 |
| schestowitz-pi | we used -J a lot with clients | Feb 20 13:17 |
| schestowitz-pi | but... | Feb 20 13:17 |
| schestowitz-pi | some of us used shared accounts | Feb 20 13:17 |
| schestowitz-pi | like "ubuntu" as username | Feb 20 13:17 |
