NewPipe v0.27.0 released

Jump

  • Can't seem to find this on f-droid or DDG.

    • PSA: Nova Launcher is owned by an analytics company

    Jump

  • Maybe also check out Total Launcher.

    • There is always something: Fighting distractions as a software developer

    Jump

  • Article too wide to fit on my phone screen.

    • SD cards finally expected to hit 4TB in 2025

    Jump

  • They are in some phones.. Shop around :)

    • Are there any things in Linux that need to be started over from scratch?

    Jump

  • Can't even update Firefox in place. Have to download a new copy, run it from the downloads folder, make a desktop shortcut myself, which doesn't have the Firefox icon.

    Can't remember if that was mint or Ubuntu I was fiddling with, but it's not exactly user friendly.

    • Why did they move the comments to the right

    Jump

  • I use the Newpipe Sponsorblock fork, but use the main YouTube client to find content then "share" it to Newpipe. A little fiddly as the share dialog is built to be hostile.

    • What web services do you subscribe to?

    Jump

  • Express VPN for foreign free to air TV, ad blocking on multiple devices. 200gb Google Cloud storage. Vultr VPN for Wireguard.

    • Caption this.

    Jump

  • One is always lower than the other.

    • Roku explores taking over HDMI feeds with ads

    Jump

  • I'm still running an older version of NextPVR with three usb tuners and Comskip.exe - it gets most of the ads out of free to air automatically.

    Ublock origin and / or expressvpn seem to block some ads on the catch up services, but not all.

    YouTube with Ublock origin and Sponsorblock work well.

    Newpipe Sponsorblock fork is good as well.

    • Google sucks.

  • I guess I'm the odd one out. I quite enjoy my Arlec / grid connect stuff for simple things that could be done with wires, timers and the like.

    Tasks include: Controlling the aircon and a basic heater with Universal IR. Running ventilation fans to force air through the house when the missus opens a door for a smoke. Letting the goats out on schedule when they were young. Enabling different banks of batteries to run or charge for the inverter circuit by schedule or sunlight amount. Monitor power usage on the chargers and output to the inverter circuit. Charge the battery mower to 80% only, roughly. Charge my phone to 80% only, roughly. Power up the office lighting / TV / monitors / amp etc when I enter, off when I leave. Keep my dog cool at night but not too cold. (fan control)

    Granted I'm not looking forward to the day that grid connect dies, but I belive I can convert to Tuya locally hosted if that happens.

    None of these need a subscription.

    Likewise my outdoor Reolink camera has free cloud storage but only if you renew it every month, which is a pain.

    • acceptable screws

    Jump

  • Also handy on horrible cheap raised hex bolts when they get stripped. Dremel a slot and you're done.

    • Why can I sometimes not swallow if I wamt to?

    Jump

  • This post was a good deal more innocent than I thought it was going to be.

    And quite interesting.

    It's a bit of a nightmare though how sometimes it's the inability to swallow that sends people into care when they age or get crook.

    • Oklahoma State Patrol says it is diverting traffic after a barge hit a bridge

    Jump

  • Must be client specific. It's fine on Voyager.

    • This laptop released in 2016 no longer receive OS updates. Which means I can't update Chrome Browser

    Jump

  • The droid restraining bolt?

    • What produced the old dead channel tv static audiovisuals on tvs?

    Jump

  • It's not static. It's the ant attack.

    • The slow death of Twitter is measured in disasters like the Baltimore bridge collapse

    Jump

  • I first saw it on YouTube when a local TV station posted the raw video.

    I wasn't looking at any other media at the time.

    • Baltimore bridge collapses into river after being hit by cargo ship

    Jump

  • Time for a redundant array of inexpensive bridges?

    (computer joke about backups and resilience.)

    Or on a more serious note, maybe a tunnel?

    • What product brings a lot more value than its cost to purchase?

    Jump

  • Glasses for my myopic ass. Face I mean.

    • Why do fdroid main repo keep apps that has not been updated in 12 years ? Isn't it more logical to move apps that has not been updated in more than three years to the archive ?

    Jump

    • Is there any movie in which the actor naturally aged and portrayed the younger and older version of character ? Not a prequel sequel thing. One movie.
