You dont need a second computer, just replace the drive with an empty one.

It might be worth setting up a seperate Chromium extension store independent from Google

It does (they of course use their Azure Blob storage under the hood). Forgejo however does not (even though it supports it for releases and packages and Golang has this in their standard library).

I’ll keep the idea in mind.

Technically unlimited, but you obviously need to have enough storage to cache the zip files (and RAM to cache the file index). My server is very small, so I needed to set the limit low.

No, that temperature would damage your screen. The professional hot plates for phone repair are typically set to 85-90°C. With a heat gun you may need to set a higher temperature since you are only heating up part of the phone and it cools down again during the process. My printer (Prusa MK3) with PCB heater can go up to 120°C, so it looks perfect for the job.

Spotify does not have the power to lock your credit card or paypal account. Account bans might happen and I have seen E-Mail screenshots of people who got banned. I am not sure if they would take down an entire set of family accounts.

If you care about the content of your Spotify account (playlists, listening history) you should not use it for piracy. Just create a new one. If you are fine with 160kbps OGG files, you dont even need a paid account.

Do not create Spotify accounts with trash mail addresses, they may work at first and get banned the next day (happened to me after I created some accounts for scraping their API).

You can also export all your Spotify data as a precaution (GDPR export from the account page, they send you an email with a link to a zip file after a couple of days).

First thing I was asking is the model of toothbrush that supposedly got hacked. AFAIK there are no mainstream electric toothbrushes with onboard WiFi. Both OralB and Philips use Bluetooth for their smart functionalities.

If the story was about smart ovens or washing machines I would have believed it.

Why put it in the notification about the next video? Wouldn’t it be a better idea to have the favourite button in the player overlay, perhaps in a context menu?

Bad bot, you should verify whether Piped can accept an URL and not simply link all YouTube URLs to Piped.

RSS feeds are XML files which contain a list of documents hosted on the internet (articles, audio/video). The feed entries contain basic metadata (title, date, author, summary) and a link to the original website (or audio/video file in the case of a podcast).

Feed readers send a simple web request to the website hosting the feed, downloading it if it has changed since the last update. The content is then combined with other feeds and displayed. This way you can have a personalized news reading experience without needing to create an account at a a central provider or open every individual site.

Alternative YouTube clients use RSS feeds provided by YouTube (example: https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=UC2DjFE7Xf11URZqWBigcVOQ), but they are only used to update subscriptions. All other requests (search, watching videos) are handled by the same web interface as the YouTube desktop application. Fetching the RSS feeds is a lot faster than opening the channel page, so the RSS featuee allows you update 100 or more channels in a few seconds.

The way podcast ads work is either just like YouTube sponsorships (the podcaster gets paid by a company to speak an advertisement themselves) or they are dynamically inserted by the podcast provider (these are the interrupting ads). Since most podcast apps dont store cookies, there is no way to track users and personalization is done only via the IP-based location and topic of the podcast. RSS-based podcast players have no way of directly reporting back playback telemetry. The server hosting the podcasts can only count the number of downloads/playbacks. So there is no way to count the amount of watched ads when using a RSS-based podcast player like AntennaPod or Kasts. Note: this does not apply to podcasts on Spotify, Apple Music or similar platforms. These platforms absolutely track your listening activity. I have no idea whether this affects ad/sponsorship earnings.

One important thing if you are building a RSS application is that the server should support conditional requests (the If-Modified-Since header). This way, a client does not have to download the entire feed on every update. It simply sends the last update date with its request and the server returns an empty response if the feed is up to date.

There are some applications (for example YouTube) which dont support this, resulting in higher-than-necessery data usage, especially on mobile.

You also cannot use it to store secret information like bank account/credit card details, API keys, etc.

Will they replace Consolas in Windows with this one or is it a GitHub-only-thing? In Consolas the characters 1 and l look very similar, making the font unsuitable for coding and terminal use, so it would be good if they replaced it with something else.

Did they accidentally buy UVC sterilization tubes instead of the relatively harmless UVA party lights?

No, it is Notepad++ and it is called like that because it is written in C++.

Web applications may have vulnerabilities that allow an attacker to run code on the host system (Remote Code Execution). Famous example would be the log4shell vulnerability.

If you want to expose your server to the internet, you have to make sure you are not suffering damage if an attack like this occurs.

1. Give the server application minimum privileges on your system. Use either containerization, sandboxing or systemd hardening to prevent the app from running commands on your system or access important data. Jellyfin for example only needs to read your media library, so if you are using docker, mount it read-only.
2. Keep both the reverse proxy and the application up-to-date. For a docker setup you can use watchtower.
3. Make backups of both your media collection and the Jellyfin database in case you need to restore your system. You should also have a script or at least some written notes on how you set up everything.
4. Ideally isolate the media server from the rest of your network. If someone manages to put malware on your server, they should not be able to access the rest of your network (PCs, smart home devices, cameras, etc). This requires a more advanced firewall than most consumer routers have, so I currently do not do it on my home setup.

They look like good machines if you are printing a lot and need an inkjet (like for photo printing)

If you are only using a printer occasionally for letters or shipping labels, laser printers are probably a better option. Sure, they need more space, but they cant dry out and dont require cleaning programs.

They do publish some open source software like Whisper TTS. Their core products are all proprietary though.

Do they now have additional USB ports on the back side? Or do you refer to having USB modules plugged in?
