Not OP but my general approach is similar: "I see it as wrong but do not feel entitled to impose my standards on others".

You can either root it or enable developer mode to install an ad-free youtube.

Or as Raymond Chen likes to put it: "It rather involved being on the other side of this airtight hatchway".

I've been really happy with the winger addon for managing tabs. I really am closer than ever to complete control.

(no relation, just a user)

It adds a dropdown list of windows in the tab bar in which you can name each window, move tabs between windows, and save/restore windows into bookmarks.

Now instead of having 1000 tabs in 20 odd windows and eventually declaring bankrupcy, I have 1000 tabs in 20 _named_ windows alongside 500 bookmark folders of (named!) past sessions. Much better.

Seems similar to the linux kernel coding style: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/coding-style....

> The screen is yours, the content displayed is not.

Sure but traditionally this was a purely legal mechanism. There was no technological measure preventing you from copying a book, only a legal threat looming over _what_ you do with the copy.

Nowadays we have this very corporate-positive situation where copyright holders have their cake by embedding DRM and eat it too by leveraging the DMCA to prevent DRM circumventions. So you can be screwed even if you only want to take private screenshots, make backups, or exercise fair use.

You can setup a bazarr instance to use whisper as a subtitle provider.

See also selegiline, which partially metabolizes to levoamphetamine and levomethamphetamine. Not OTC though (antidepressant).

For those that dislike their change to substack, there is https://old.chipsandcheese.com/2024/10/11/amds-turin-5th-gen....

At least for now.

Nintendo's latest legal argument against emulators does rest on the DMCA's anti-circumvention provision. The letter from Nintendo to Valve in the Dolphin case makes it pretty clear.

It was already annoying to disable the (non-ad) screensaver on my (rooted) LG TV, I imagine it won't get any easier.

I can recommend the winger addon for managing tabs.

Allows for naming windows, moving tabs between windows, and saving tabs from a window as a bookmark folder.

My perspective as a subscriber for ~6 months:

Search just works, 90%+ of my searches are on kagi. Much better than google, bing, ddg, etc. Worth the $10.

I do use fastgpt and the summarizer sometimes. As with any of these AI tools, you have to get a feel for what suits it and when to use it.

The unbiased review idea _sounds like_ it would be ultimately fruitless as the requirements get philosophical, but it may very well lead to more useful tools in the process.

The GDPR perspective is unfortunate. I'm willing to wait and see if they eventually accept it.

Overall, I like their focus on user experience, customization, fast and light websites, and search quality. Sure it might not as objective as it's portrayed, but it is giving me great tools _today_.

I used a similar setup to reboot my home server remotely, with gpio pins instead of wakeonlan.

I eventually replaced it with an aliexpress tuya pcie power switch. I just wish I'd gotten the zigbee version. Homeassistant with local tuya wifi devices is quite janky.

I recently performed this exact procedure on a wifi card and yes, kapton tape works better. Electrical tape tends to tear or slide.

There might be allow lists, but I fine tuned the domains manually when setting up the TV, as they may vary by region.

My LG A1 does not hardcode addresses. I also rooted it to prevent updates from doing so in the future.

I got my glinet gl-axt1800 mainly for the adguard support out of the box, as a way to keep my smart tv experience sane. Works pretty well.
