Is Trump actually following what the courts say though?

Do those code snippets on the Stackoverflow post allow you to capture the entire screen regardless of which app is open, or do they only allow you to capture the app the code is running in?

Capturing the app itself makes sense (for things like bug reports) but does Android really let any app capture whatever is on the screen?

The one time I do connect the TV to the internet is when there’s a firmware update that fixes an issue I’m encountering. That’s rare though. I still have it on my network so I can control it using Home Assistant (eg have a backlight come on and dim the main lights when the TV is turned on) but it’s on an isolated VLAN.

This is why my TV is on a separate VLAN (with no internet access) and I use an Nvidia Shield for streaming. I haven’t seen any indication that the Shield does anything like this.

I was going to say “that article mostly just seems to debunk the ‘my phone is always listening to me’ conspiracy theory” but then I got to the part about over 50% of analyzed Android apps having permission to take screenshots :/

They’re developers rather than managers, but many are senior or staff level.

As far as I know, most of the major streaming services use Widevine L1. Some (like Netflix) use L3 for resolutions up to 720p and L1 for higher resolutions.

is free

What is their business model?

I know plenty of people in big tech that don’t like this AI stuff either.

A lot of video streaming sites (maybe most of them?) used a chunked video format like HLS (HTTP Live Streaming) or DASH (Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP), where the video is split into a large number of ~5 second clips, rather than having a single video file. All video streaming services that change video quality based on bandwidth uses technologies like these.

The videos are likely also encrypted with a DRM scheme like Widevine. yt-dlp can take a HLS or DASH stream and stick all the small video files back together, but I don’t think it can deal with DRM. Videos with DRM also can’t be captured using screen recording software, unless you do something like using a HDMI cable that strips HDCP.

See if yt-dlp supports the site. If you have an Android phone or tablet, you could try the YTDLnis app.

Even if they don’t release the data publicly, they’ll likely continue selling it on the black market even if they get the ransom payment. You really can’t expect criminals to be truthful if they have a chance to make even more money.

Never pay a ransom. The entire reason ransomware works is because people/companies pay the ransom. If nobody paid the ransom, ransomware wouldn’t be anywhere near as common as it is now.

It’s the same thing with scalpers of event tickets, GPUs, etc. If people stopped buying scalped stuff, the scalpers wouldn’t have a market and there’d be far fewer of them.

Somehow it’s the only old-school P2P network that’s not only survived, but still thrives even today. So many rare songs on there. It turned 24 years old last month. All the others from the same era (like Napster, Kazaa, Limewire, etc) are long gone. ed2k is still around but mostly dead.

The chat rooms are also old-school unmoderated chat rooms, so expect the worst of humanity to be in there.

If you have a home server, slskd is great. It’s an alternate Soulseek app that’s a server with a web UI.

Is this why Business Insider articles are trash? They have so many clickbait headlines (including Buzzfeed-style ones like “we tried five things. You won’t believe which one was the best”) attached to articles that aren’t worth reading. Whenever I click one in Google News, I usually regret increasing their view count.

I miss the old Digg sometimes. Maybe it’s because life was simpler for me back then. Their poor redesign in 2010 is what led me to Reddit, which is what led me to Lemmy.

I didn’t realise it’s only visible to server admins. I run my own server, and it seems like server admins can view the votes on any comment, not just comments on their server.

What I haven’t checked is if non-admins can load the vote data, and it’s just the button in the UI that’s hidden.

Although since Lemmy votes are public, it does take some restraint to not message people that downvote your comments/posts and ask them why.

Yeah I don’t think the multi-select listboxes have really changed much since the days of Internet Explorer 3 and Netscape Navigator. Out of all the standard form components you can use in HTML, it’s probably the one most in need of improvements.

I’ve used software where you have to ctrl click but I’m not sure I’ve ever come across another website where this is the case

This is the standard behaviour on the web for lists where you can select multiple options. See the example here for instance: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Reference/Elements/select#advanced_select_with_multiple_features

Most sites have a custom version though, since the built-in HTML element has such a poor user experience. I really wish browsers would just switch it to be a list with checkboxes.

The behaviour was based on Windows desktop apps in the 90s (where this behaviour was way more common), but after a while, most things switched to checkbox lists instead.
