  • Won't work if ads are served on the same domain name as YouTube does. Also I think the website just wouldn't load if you block the domain checking the integrity (which will probably be done on the same domain as the website you attempt to access)

  • I don't know: people I know don't always use ad-blockers and if they do they have no idea that they are less effective on Chrome than on Firefox.

    Also they all have been brainwashed to use Chrome because it was marketed as "faster, better and safer" all those years ago and wouldn't even think of switching browsers (or it would be for another Chromium-based one)

  • I'm afraid that browsers supporting this DRM would also block attempts to break it and that browsers that do not support it get blocked by websites using it

  • Well, the engineers say it themselves: nothing would prevent websites developers to prevent access from browsers that do not support this "Web DRM".

    My biggest fear though is that it becomes a standard which all browsers will have to support to stay relevant. And with Google building the engine used by the vast majority of browsers, they can force this upon other browser engines (ie. Safari and Firefox).

  • Quicker but not ideal for users with visual impairments :/

  • I run everything on top of the docker-compose chart, which allows me much more flexibility that I would ever have with official TrueNAS apps and TrueCharts.

  • I self-host a ton of software. For context, I'm leveraging docker-compose on top of TrueNAS SCALE:

    • Monitoring
      • Prometheus
      • Grafana
      • the basic dockprom exporters: nodeexporter, cadvisor
      • NUT Exporter (UPS statistics)
      • PiHole exporter
      • UptimeKuma
    • Ad blocking
      • PiHole
      • unbound (censor-resilient DNS resolver)
      • dnsproxy (in order to use PiHole on my smartphone and laptop outside my home network)
    • Media
      • Plex
      • Transmission
      • Sonarr
      • Radarr
      • Bazarr
      • Jackett
      • Flaresolverr
    • Services exposed to the outside world
      • Bunkerweb (security-hardened nginx reverse-proxy)
      • Bird.makeup (Twitter to Mastodon bridge)
      • FreshRSS
      • n8n (automation software, think IFTTT or Zapier, but open-source and on steroids)
      • Self-Host Planning Poker (my very own software!)
      • Courier (parcel tracking software)
      • Overseerr (user-friendly interface for friends and family to request movies and shows, plugs into Sonarr, Radarr and Plex)
      • Lemmy
    • Kresus (personal finance)
    • Wireguard (VPN I use as a gateway into my home network)
    • Caddy (reverse proxy with HTTPS, I use it for serving locally everything I do not expose to the outside world)
    • Restic server (an HTTP server to push Restic backups from various computers at home)
    • wakeonlan-cron-docker (because TrueNAS doesn't allow installing WoL package. Once again, I made it myself)

    What I'm looking into at the moment:

    • Tandoor Recipes (deployed but I cannot make CSRF work with my reverse-proxy so far)

    What I'll be looking into in the near future:

    • Promtail + Grafana Loki to aggregate Docker containers logs in Prometheus/Grafa
    • Immich (Google Photos alternative with automated backups from smartphones)
  • On Android Firefox has been able to install PWAs for a while, but not exactly as Chrome does (probably a restriction set by Google), they won't show up on the app list but only in your desktop.

  • I would use the entire $1 billion to buy company stocks and use them to try stop their bad behaviors/investments, like stopping Big Petrol from polluting more, Google from spying on their users, etc.

  • Well, yes but not easily: this API will indeed allow developers to more easily develop third-party clients for kbin, but I don't think it is a 1:1 reproduction of Lemmy's API, so it will require significant work for clients to support both Lemmy and kbin.

    Also, do keep in mind that kbin and Lemmy do not have feature parity (like Boosting or following users which are kbin-only)

  • +1, you should be able to block entire instances at the user-level like on Mastodon, we should not have to ask admins to block instances that bother a minority.

  • Don't forget that the track was already rubbered in from the Grand Prix week-end, so it might not have been fully representative of Daniel's true pace.

  • Maybe they chose F4 cars for costs reasons? I believe F1 wanted Academy to be affordable for drivers and teams.

  • Yep, the article mentions that next season will have live coverage on the same weekends as F1!

  • I had the same issue, upgrading to 0.18.1 and using the revised nginx.conf from lemmy-ansible fixed the issue.

  • Elon building AI, what could go wrong?

  • In college we had courses on Linux and we were able to SSH on other students' computers. First I used innocuous commands that ejected the optical drive or that enabled the screensaver.

    But unfortunately it escalated quickly and soon every student would mess with each other by shutting down the computers...

  • Did the same thing, thinking the messages would not leave the classroom (I did not know how networking worked at the time) and got reprimanded by the school's professor in charge of IT.

  • I'm using BunkerWeb which is an Nginx reverse-proxy with hardening, ModSecurity WAF, rate-limiting and auto-banning out of the box.
