Some TLDs don’t allow full unicode either. Country TLDs usually just add their own special chars, for example .se (sweden) allows åäö.

The whole thing has a name as well: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDN_homograph_attack

I open the series folder from the mounted network share and watch it in VLC.

Similar, but I have a RPI by the TV running LibreELEC and Kodi.

Just a matter of time until you can’t chose what to watch on the lowest tier, you have to follow their playlist of what you should watch.

And we have come full circle back to broadcast TV

security none existsnt. Aws security tools used to scream at you every time you open the aws console. Solution at the company was to restrict views to those pages so (most) people don’t see the security/vuln reports. To get reports, you’d have to ask cybersec.

Not going to lie, that is hilarious. And forget red flags, you have a whole squadron of semaphores right there.

I think that is just an effect of growing, or at least not shrinking and sticking around. There is ni point in spaming somewhere where there are no active users.

It should be doable to so some audio analysis of the episodes. They “always” (I am sure some forget every now and then), have an outro and intro around the ad block. With a clearly defined jingle per podcast. You should be able to make a program that analyses the audio and listens for that block and cuts it out for you.

Nice rack!

That exact same phrase is used in a very different context in other communities!

One problem with that use case is that you as the creator doesn’t control where (screen position) and how (font face, size, etc) the subtitles are rendered. The browser and user control that, so I doubt they would be widely used for meme because of this.

However, I do agree that it would be nice to have support for it for other reasons.

You fool! The en passant odds are through the roof!

Well it makes sense if you think about it.

You invest a million dollar in 100 companies, 95 fail, 4 makes 10 million each. If the last one hits at least 60 million you are even, anything above is pure profit. Basically just throwing shit at the wall and see what sticks.

Personally I think mandatory voting is a bad idea. It will not make then suddenly care, they will just vote for lolrolfcopter party.

The US does a lot of bad things around voting, but it being on a workday is probably the biggest hurdle. Most other countries have it on a weekend or holiday. That means that most people can go vote and not have to chose between potentially getting fired and vote. Which, to no surprise mostly affects lower income voters.

Also combined with the witch hunt on mail in voting makes it very hard for lower income people to vote. Which is by design.

Or even worse, password field doesn’t work with paste.

It says “could” not “will”, so they will just never implement that part.

The funny thing is that the cookie warning only applies to tracking cookies, for stuff like session cookies you do not need it.

But it is always easier to just nag the user too many times than to risk something, so everyone just adds the warning anyway.

Also, IANAL so don’t trust me!

Re-binding caps lock is such a nice thing. I am a Perl programmer (yes, really), though not in emacs (vim all the way!)

I changed caps locks to $ and @ with shift decades ago. Especially since in my native layout they are awkward to reach.

And then there are things like strcmp() that uses 0 as true. At least it is for a good reason, but still confusing.

The problem is that your whole family has to be not dumb enough.

Also the storage is the cost for the user, and google in the case of play store. So the developers have no incentive to reduce the size.

Yeah, that is just how youtube works. You as an individual can say you don’t like annoying thumbnails and titles, but they 100% work. And channels that don’t use them are just not getting as many viewers.
