Clannad? Valid

After-Story?

The back end is open source, but sometimes they've lagged years behind releasing the source code.

I think this is the more worrying part if true. The backend is licensed under the AGPL, so this would technically be a ~~violation~~ of their terms

Edit: For anyone else reading I looked into it a bit more and looks like the issue came to a head around 3 years ago, with this comment being made after a year of missing source code. The public repo has been pretty active since then, so the issue seems to be resolved

If I had to guess I'd say that their other project, Sponserblock, got a little bit more popular than they were expecting and this is just to help alleviate server costs. Most of the API endpoints don't require any auth at all (the single one that does accepts a random UUID), so any checks must be locally done (maybe system time?). The extension and server back-end are licensed under GPLv3 and AGPL respectively and are also entirely self-hostable, so the code is out there to verify if you wish

Additionally if you're looking for it to start on boot without logging in, you might find the loginctl enable-linger command to be of use. Maybe along with a Restart=on-failure policy in the service file if this is for a headless unit or something

PRE-SUBMISSION EDIT: This is a long-winded reply and goes increasingly off-topic as it progresses, sorry. TLDR I agree

Anecdotally, I've also noticed a rapid change in the last decade or so as politicians become emboldened by Trump's success. For example, the premier of a major Canadian province has done the following:

• Took on some of Trump's advisors who claimed the COVID vaccines were a bioweapon
• Denied aspects of the well-documented cultural genocide occuring in Canada's residential schools
• Claimed that people who took a COVID vaccine would have been Nazi sympathizers
• Stated that the first three stages of cancer are "completely within your control", advocating for neuropathy
• Claimed in 2003 that smoking can reduce the risk of disease

She was previously head of the (now defunct) Wildrose party before defecting and indirectly leading to the historic 2015 election, which marked the first time a left-wing party formed a majority government in almost 80 years.

But even then the most controversial thing she said (publicly) was that 'the science on climate change "wasn't settled"', still inane but a far cry from what was to come after her return to power in 2022

Who said it was the US government? Additionally I'd wager that the people who vote both vote independent and browse these sorts of forums are people who would otherwise vote democrat. Note that there are currently many interested parties that would benefit from a republican win at this moment

For fun or to play around with transpilers?

They're talking about the Hogwarts game

An amendment to the popular expression, "All [personal] information should be free", I suppose

Wow, not that bad for a series that was endlessly criticized when starting out
