So what’s you’re proposed solution? Your directive to “fix that” was a bit light on details.

This is a step in the right direction. The automated reviews will supplement, not replace, the reviewing triggered by manual reports you supported in your initial comment. I’d argue the pushback from police unions is a sign that it actually might lead to some change, given the reasoning the give in the article.

So fix that.

Were it so simple, it would have been fixed decades ago. The difference is that having AI review the footage is actually feasible.

I meant without Prime. Most of the time, my orders take 4-6 days to even ship anymore. I’ll occasionally sign up for a month of Prime when they offer it for free again, and it’s back to normal for that month.

But yeah, there isn’t free 2-day shipping anymore, just “free Prime shipping,” which is slower than 2-day and faster than non-Prime.

Start? They’ve already been doing that for at least a couple of years now.

This is still a hardware limitation, just at scale.

I use Tailscale when the need arises, but I honestly don’t see ads on my phone very often even without the Pi-hole between good browsers, revanced, and not playing shitty mobile games.

I was mostly just questioning the usefulness of AdGuard on a tv box. It seems to have a pretty narrow scope, which could be better addressed through other means (better in that DNS-based blocking helps the entire network, not just the tv).

Not the guy you asked, but I use Projectivy Launcher. It’s not FOSS, but it does a decent job of putting a suggestions/up next feed on the homescreen and is fairly customizable.

Yeah, this doesn’t seem to provide anything a better launcher + Pi-hole don’t already provide. At least on mobile, the ad blockers help when I’m away from home and not going through the Pi-hole for DNS queries…but my tv doesn’t leave the house much.

A: Why would a washing machine have internet access?

They can download customized wash cycles if you’re into that sort of thing. They can also communicate through an app to do things like tell you when a load of laundry is finished, when it’s time to run it through a self-cleaning cycle, and give specific details when it encounters problems (e.g., mine once notified me the hot water line was giving it cold water). They also allow you to start a cycle remotely, but tend to require enabling that manually via button press for some reason, so that feature’s basically useless.

tl;dr: Yes, but probably takes some effort for most content.

Plex will play the files, but metadata is hit or miss. If it’s something that’s on thetvdb or themoviedb, it can be matched as a series or movie, respectively. With some effort, you could also probably include all the relevant metadata when downloading the videos, then have plex use local metadata, which could cover anything not big enough for the big metadata providers.

I think it’s also possible to find plug-ins/scripts that will pull metadata directly from youtube, but I’ve had bad luck relying on that stuff and then development stopping, so I avoid it these days.

The Sony rootkit thing happened nearly 20 years ago. They’re not just now making dick moves.

Grabbed a year on the Black Friday sale and, holy shit, it’s so much better. Actual explanations and lessons is way better than the pointless gamification/leaderboards.

Yes, the article is about a specific instance of it happening.

I think this might be a case where the generic “scams generally work best if done low effort” doesn’t apply, since to be successful, this sort of scam requires some specifics. The not-kidnapped daughter was away training for a ski race. Blasting “we kidnapped your daughter” to people whose daughter is sitting on the couch next to them or people without daughters doesn’t work at all.

The article mentions people lose an average of $11k in these scams, which means they’re probably working best when targeting people with some savings.

Why keep the 3 staff? They’re not going to be working diligently to do all the human tasks while freshly aware of how little they’re valued at this point. They’re going to look for a better place to work.
