I’ve had NixOS absolutely refuse to run some compiler toolchain I depended upon that should’ve been dead simple on other distros, I’m really hesitant to try anything that tries to be too different anymore.

Yes, some toolchain expect you to run pre-compiled dynamically linked binaries. These won't work on NixOS, you need to either find a way to install the binary from nix and force the toolchain to use it or run patchelf on it somehow.

What do you mean? They can phone without, they install it to "communicate with boomeer relatives", as it's written.

And what about the person the thieves sells it to?

yt-dlp list gamedev.tv as supported and has an issue about adding zenva support with a comment suggesting it might not be hard.

You'll need to pass the auth cookie you got after login to yt-dlp.

Je ne vois pas trop comment ils pourraient faire ça en analysant le trafic. J'imagine qu'ils collecteront plutôt directement les donnés auprès des services cités. Un VPN n'y changera rien.

It feels like you are missing the point on purpose. I don't know why, this feels like laziness.

Criticizing the existence of billionaires and being antiwork are two different things. And being antiwork is different than wanting to do nothing. No one wants to do nothing, except in cases of major depressions.

A lot of antiwork post can lack depth but there are really interesting criticism to be made about work as it's organized these days. I suggest you dig the subject.

No one is going to read first hand what you are up to. It's just companies trying to automate pricing based on data they collect so they can up prices when you need something the most. That's just one simple example so you can understand but there are plenty of other things you can do with the collected data.

This is also important because they'll just straight up sell it to data brokers that'll aggregate it, make it searchable and sell access to it to just anybody. And even if you feel your are not an interesting target now you never know how it'll be in the futur, once the data is out you can't do much.

I don't think the commenter you are replying to is arguing that chrome is a better choice. He or she knows it's bad but didn't make the change out of lazyness (no offence). Change has a cost, especially if it implies changing habits. So people will just delay or avoid them.

Not sure Privacy Badger brings anything, it stopped doing local learning a long time ago. Just enable the anti tracking lists in uBO.

[-] ivn@jlai.lu 8 points 10 months ago

You're right, I should have explained.

Privacy Badger was known to be able to learn what to block but local learning could be used to fingerprint you so it was removed. Nowadays it's only a list based blocker, while the list is still automatically generated on their side through learning it mostly overlap with regular tracking protection list used with uBlock Origin.

They also claim other features but they are either outdated (google outgoing link protection last update is 9 months old and is based on the old url schema) or already covered by uBlock Origin (uBlock Origin can now sanitize urls with the removeparam filter, facebook outgoing link protection is included in the "AdGuard URL Tracking Protection" filter list, for third party widget blocking enable the "EasyList – Social Widgets" list).

It's also in Arkenfox "Don't bother" extension list.

Better use Firefox in strict mode with uBlock Origin.

Well yes, there is very little charcuterie on this picture.
