I remember Hooktube. That was when front ends were still trying to play nice by accessing youtube the “right way”.
They killed that one off pretty hastily.
Invidious was the hero successor, but I think we all knew that it would eventually come to this. Invidious’ most recent fixes for blocking involve passing identity tokens, making a concession that Google is then better able to track users behind Invidious.
I’m not sure how much farther there is left to go on the technical angle of this fight.
Further thought: they have to contend with what to do with the string of a tampon when wiping. Whether to tuck it inside, or carefully work around not to smear shit on it.
Windows 11 is a piece of shit so people (including your IT department) don’t want to upgrade,
Deja vu
Just a few years ago:
Windows 10 is a piece of shit so people (including your IT department) don’t want to upgrade,
With time, the normies will acclimate to it, and Windows 11 will become “acceptable”. Just like all the other ones.
Good guy Amazon: Makes employees return in-person to prevent them from using proprietary remote work software.
The genie is already out of the bottle BUT, one solution would be to raise the barrier to entry again.
Return the internet to the pre-“smart” phone era, in which a minimum bar of effort and knowledge needed to be present in order to connect and participate on the web.
In 2008~2010, the flood gates opened for all the normies to stampede in and everything has been downhill since then.

I could have predicted that even if the article never mentioned it.
I no longer view gatekeeping necessarily as a bad thing. In fact, it can be sometimes be necessary to preserve communities.
I’ve also learned over the years that the only people who succeed in migrating to linux are those who both considerably desire to do so while also having a level of technical competency somewhere north of average. Anyone else is just being strung along by a “helpful” linux evangelist in their family or friends group, and will ultimately drop the solution at the first sign of trouble and frustration.
What’s wrong with /proc/*info and dmidecode?
I really enjoy there being a natural filter through this process. I’d rather people who lack the willpower or cognitive capacity to complete an install be kept within the confines of Windows.
I would have omitted the last panel.
I get where 0x0 was going with that, but I also don’t expect lemmings (ex-redditors) to understand it either.
stop using the internet outside of what is required to function in society.
I agree with the sentiment. But also consider the threshold for “what is required to function in society” is experiencing endlessly expanding feature creep. The great mass hysteria of 2020 dealt the heaviest blow.
I don’t really see the problem here. So people dumb enough to use Meta or Tiktok etc become anxious, depressed and suicidal. That is actually awesome. All of the right people are getting hit with consequences of their poor decisions.

Description: tool for tunneling IPv4 data through a DNS server
This is a piece of software that lets you tunnel IPv4 data through a DNS
server. This can be usable in different situations where internet access is
firewalled, but DNS queries are allowed.
leading to significant manipulation of public discourse
Pretending that this wasn’t already a massive issue on places like reddit since years ago, with or without bots, is a little bit disingenuous.
The part that actually describes how the ban would work is at least one hyperlink away from the article.
