Lots of recommendations for groups, recommendations of random people to follow, and things like that. If these are paid ads, they are not clearly presented as such.

Though I just logged in (first time in a while) and I didn’t see that, so…maybe it changed, or maybe my ad blocker is doing better than it used to? Not sure.

I honestly don’t know how I could use Facebook that way. Seriously. I log in once in a blue moon, and half the stuff I see scrolling through the main feed has nothing to do with any of my friends as far as I can tell. And that’s with an ad blocker.

I don’t understand how anybody can stand it. Maybe it’s a “boiling frog” situation, or maybe they’ve developed better counter-strategies than I am familiar with? I quit Facebook about 10 years ago and when I poke my head in now, it’s completely different. It is terrible in ways I wouldn’t have believed 10 years ago.

I’m not well versed enough in Android app development to answer whether or not one userspace app can even access the screen contents of another app without root or special permissions

This requires special permissions and explicit user approval every time an app starts screen recording, plus it shows a red notification whenever screen recording is active.

I think you could get by with a one-time user approval as a device administration or assistive app permission, which you’d need to manually grant in Settings. Unlikely anyone would do that by accident.

That might be different for system-level apps. I haven’t bought a carrier-branded phone in 10+ years so I’m not sure what that’s like these days.

Oh! I knew European outlets operated at higher voltage, but I didn’t know the standard circuits supported such high current. Jealous!

Almost has to be. 2400W would put it completely outside the consumer market. Consumer PSUs don’t go that high. Home power outlets don’t go that high unless you have special electrical work done. I can hardly imagine what a cooling system for a nearly 3KW system would look like.

Works for me in Wayland on Bazzite. Maybe depends on your distro and GPU drivers.

It means that when they go to KFC, they bring their own tactical spork.

Kind of the opposite. It takes more effort to make a filesystem case-insensitive. Binary comparison is the laziest approach. (Note that laziness is a virtue.)

I’m on the fence as to which is better. Putting backwards compatibility aside, there’s a perfectly good case to be made for case-insensitivity being more intuitive to the human user.

Apple got into a strange position when marrying Mac OS (case-insensitive) and NeXTSTEP (case-sensitive). It used to be possible to install OS X on case-sensitive HFS+ but it was never very well supported and I think they axed it somewhere down the road.

This is network-specific. It’s been going on for a few months at least. yt-dlp itself still works without sign-in, if your network is not “suspicious”.

Always worth making sure you’re updated to the latest version of yt-dlp, but this is probably a network thing.

Are you sure about that? The star over each icon indicates that both of them are bookmarked.

So either this is a bug or there is a second bookmark hiding somewhere. If you go to Bookmarks > Manage Bookmarks and search for “qb”, what appears there?
