I see this as a clever step in that direction. Make it relatively easy to apply. Wait ten years, point to the lack of widespread abuse and then make it available to everyone.

You probably got them from NOLF revival.

At the moment it isn’t even that. It’s more the concept of an inventory of the landscape of a plan.

The streams are not the problem. Sometimes with content that was especially hard to find I’d grab the URL to the stream and download it via curl.

The problem is getting there. You have to navigate through treacherous sites with dubious “Stream now” buttons that bring even the best ad blockers to their limits. With myriad “sorry your stream is in another castle” and CAPTCHAS so complicated they could summon Cthulhu.

I think op doesn’t want to navigate that shit with a remote keyboard and mouse and would rather have a nice interface that hides all that shit.

There used to be plugins for that. Don’t know if they still exist. But they broke at least once every other year with a short period of uncertainty until a replacement was found.

Sometimes you’d need a companion app to solve CAPTCHAs. And when you just about settled in comfortably everything broke again.

They should happen in that order, and ideally copyright would only be awarded to individuals (or perhaps specifically named lists of individuals, with some reasonable cap), not corporations.

That’s actually the law in Germany. Here it’s not called copyright but originator’s right. The big caveat being that things you create while under contract are licensed to companies. But the originator’s rights can not be transferred or erased.

Of course international contracts severely muddy the waters here.

I use dropbear in initramfs on my Debian server. Works great.

At home I have a cheap networked KVM because I also sometimes have hardware problems preventing a boot. Works really well. Cost 100 € and uses open source software. It’s called GL.iNet KVM.

Quick, someone patent it all!

I only played Simon the Sorcerer Origins. It’s a bit short but got me in the mood of playing the originals again. I’ll probably buy it when it’s released.

I wouldn’t convert mp3s to opus. Apart from the quality loss of converting from one lossy format to another you also lose potential compatibility. Just about any device can play mp3. The number of devices that can play opus is much lower.

You should wrap your text in spoiler tags. Even knowing that someone important could die in game x is already a huge spoiler.

The Signal lead has been vocally against doing a fully fledged version for Linux for a while now. He really likes his closed ecosystems. “for security”

Desktop Linux is soooo insecure because users can access their own data.

And all the people who’ve already bought the original can still play it per usual with Steam and GOG.

OpenSUSE is big on the security and usability front. None of the services you install activate by themselves. Firewall active by default. The first user doesn’t get access to every group under the sun after installation.

And everything can be controlled through GUI tools. But it doesn’t throw a fit when you’ve done something yourself through the CLI.

Nice!

Wenn man anruft ist keiner da.

Username checks out.

Both whitewashing and turning a ginger character black are time honored traditions.

Pictures you (or your users. if any) uploaded yourself should be gone, though.

I’ve turned off proxying myself and purged what I could find from pictrs and it’s still taking up way more storage than it should. And it’s a messy black box where I have no idea what’s really going on. Another reason why I want to switch to Piefed.
