About the only palliative measure I can think about is to disengage from society completely, as it’s no longer possible to correct it, and go live in the middle of nowhere until the planet eventually goes to hell. Or until society decides to go fully nihilistic and self-terminate.

If you want to read the gritty-nitty of how exactly was the Widevine blob patched and worked around specifically to not violate the DMCA, here’s the specific article

…and makes playing Destiny 2 impossible, unfortunately.

I would have played on Linux a bit more if I had enough space on my partition. Good thing I recently updated to 2 terabytes!

What about the Vatican? Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition Roman Crusaders to just go and take a claim on the Land of Canaan!

Personally, the current environment has led me to avoid most of the popular culture instead.

At least it seems like you can still do a backup, re-lock the bootloader, apply for an upgrade, then unlock the bootloader again and restore the backup - right?

Is there a way to lock the bootloader and keep a ROM different from the one the device shipped with? Or do I need to relock and reunlock every time I need to update the custom ROM, with all the data loss this implies?

Well, if you talk about the newest AI-powered UTAU voicebanks, that’s because the developers finally thought about crossing the streams, and instead of having the singers merely pronounce syllables in several pitches, they used that data (expanded to also include several syllable clusters) to train an AI.

Expecting Colombia, Peru, Chile and South Africa to be next on the pumping

Or you can pronounce it “heef” as in Spanish, just saying

Currently using Revanced, I’m hoping to see a way to actually integrate my Google account with something else, in a similar manner to what SmartTube is somehow allowed to do.

My only issue with Newpipe is that I can’t sync my “watch later” list with Google’s servers. That, and I can’t reply to comments straight from the app. Otherwise I’d probably be using either that or Piped.

I’d love to use it on my smartphone as well… problem is the interface was designed to react only to directional buttons, not to touch inputs. I wonder if somebody can manage to add the ability in the source code?

So, has somebody managed to mod the missing Spider-Man missions into the PC version of the game?

Also: certain Latin transliterations of Hebrew

And don’t forget the full name would be “X, formerly known as Twitter, formerly known as twttr” https://logos-world.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Twitter-Logo-History.jpg

Been boycotting the media for about a decade. It frankly makes it difficult to make small talk when you refuse to know about the latest trends that Big Media sells to the populace

My setup is similar, but what I have is one UPS for the things that shouldn’t go down in case of power outage (the modem and server) and another for everything else in my room that can go down for a while without much loss (the computer, consoles, screen, etcetera)
