  • Sideload https://github.com/dayanch96/YTLite

    Sponsorblock, Adblock, background play, skip, etc all integrated

    Sideloading on ios is easy now unless your device was ever provisioned for a dev certificate. If that’s the case and it’s still active then just sign it with your own cert. if it’s no longer active you either need a fresh apple id or you need to use one of the kind of sketchy signing services. Otherwise you just use like sideloadly, altstore, side store, etc

    Also there is no chromium on ios. All browsers use webkit and are basically just reskinned safari. Some heavily modify this (eg orion can run some Firefox and chrome extensions) though





  • Confirm Java is the best roux one can reasonably get outside of Japan

    My additions to the box recipe: I cut the veg a bit smaller, I brown the veg a bit (including potatoes, but you have to have a dry starchy potato type like russet for this to work otherwise precooking it will lead to it just becoming mush during the boil and thickening the sauce), add honey and some kind of neutral hot sauce because Japanese “spicy” is like not even a little spicy. I actually now use one of those ultra extreme spicy 10 billion scoville capsicum extract sauces, literally a few drops in a pot makes it decently spicy and otherwise adds no flavor.

    Unless you live alone you might as well make the whole box in one recipe imo. It keeps for several days, reheats easily, and it’s one of those “tastes better day 2 and 3” kind of meals. The only thing is that freezing it doesn’t work so well (sort of). Freezing busts up the cell walls in the potatoes so even if you use a dry starchy potato like above it will turn to mush once you thaw and reheat. It’s not bad, but it does change the texture with a thicker sauce and much less potato “chunks” (some bits usually survive).

    The only better thing I’ve found is to make a roux from scratch but honestly it’s not that much better (and probably worse until you dial it in) but a lot more work. The roux is like $4 a box at my local market and making it is like an entire Saturday plus way more money in ingredients especially if you don’t have a well stocked spice rack

    And data collection. People think they’re good if they just don’t give it personal info but you’re definitely being fingerprinted and tracked. If they haven’t already they’ll eventually partner with meta or google (in the case of Gemini that’s obviously already done) to match any fingerprinting to much denser profiling. Plus they’re designed in a way to encourage you to let your guard down and talk casually, which disarms you and makes it more likely you mention identifying info they can’t determine from IP and fingerprinting.

    OpenAI has already added advertisement so this is definitely occurring. No one buys ads in this day and age without robust audience targeting

    Someone hasn’t heard of Jimmy saville’s reign of sexual assault that likely resulted in over a thousand victims (though the official number is 589) over like half a century (earliest reports dated to 1958 and he died in 2011), many being sick or disabled children that he gained access to via “charity work”. Like Epstein it was an open secret that literally everyone knew but wasn’t allowed to be acknowledged until he was dead and could not be held responsible. They did arrest several other co conspirators in the aftermath of this like Gary glitter but it was clear that saville had protection and the like 7 other people who went down after he died benefitted from whatever connections he had while he was alive.

    He literally said in his autobiography he “had a predilection for young girls” and made jokes when questioned about his crimes. He was knighted and knew consequences would never come.


  • Depends on what kind of sprinkler system and how old it is. Some of them are closed systems and the water stays stagnant until it’s set off, so when it finally goes the water itself is a hazard because it’s been sitting potentially for years. It tends to come out very disgusting, black sludge that smells like actual shit. And then you have a whole specialized response and cleanup required because it’s loaded with bacteria.

    They won’t clean it though, they’ll piss away more money to hire specialized cleaners and contractors to fix the damage
