Index of repositories is held locally, so if you use the same repository with multiple machines, they have to rebuild their index every time they switch.
I also have family PCs i wanted to backup too, but borg doesnt support windows, so only hacky WSL would have worked.
But the worst might be the speed of borg… idk what it is, but it was incredibly slow when backing up.
Was using borg, was a bit complicated and limited, now i use kopia.
Its supposed to support multiple machines into a single repository, so you can deduplicated e.g. synced data too, but i havent tested that yet.
I mean the tools mentioned also support these features, how does duplicacy and its prorpietary software make them better?
No, then they only handle your DNS setup, which is still okay in my eyes.
Its certainly far away from scanning all HTTP traffic. Not to forget the juicy metadata they get about the users across a big chunk of the internet, perfect tracking machine in a neat package with easy access by the government.
Convenience will kill the cat
It not only has to be not ‘open’ in the explorer, but properly unmounted. Tools like mkfs dont do that for you, its just not their job. (and might be unwanted or stop your from making mistakes like accidentally overwriting the wrong drive)
try umount /dev/USBDRIVE
If that still complaints about Device or ressource busy, then something is still using it.
Either try to close things that might be the culprit, reboot and try again or, if installed and you are compfortable, you can check which processes using lsof -D (you can get that location using mount | grep )
I won’t be able to browse suggested videos
Whats funny, you do get recommendations on videos, so would be quite easy to grab the last 30 or so videos of your subscriptions and display some of those on the home-page.
But at that point… might aswell switch to Freetube/Piped
In found this often breaks sites, so the combination is still better.
Just FYI Germany likes to make things more difficult, so with federation every sub-area is separated in many aspects and has own agencies for different things…
BfDI is only responsible for health and internet-provider institutions (and a few more).
Otherwise you can send it to the one where the company is located at, or always where you are located at. (they will forward it, but that can take a few months, so better to submit where it has to go).
EU Cookie Directive applies to all website owners within the EU aswell as Websites which target EU users.
It gives clear rules for different categories of cookies like how you need to display them and for which you actually need consent to be allowed to use them.
It also sets rules for how easy certain actions have to be and granularity.
(very simplified)
The real MVPs are websites not needing a cookie banner because they only use required cookies for which you dont need a banner.
If it would be hard to do and having to bypass DRM yes, but its actually similar to what the player already does.
A court already ruled here that downloading youtube videos does not break the piracy laws by providing own means of downloading and saving the unprotected data.
Of course that does not include allowing the download feature of the client itself.
Downloading from youtube is piracy? How? If it was like a Youtube Red show, sure, but the normal videos everyone can see for free?
For me piracy begins with aquiring things or features which usually cost money to get whilst also taking into account if its obvious a thing should cost money in such an environment (thats also how our piracy laws are worded here).
So our piracy laws also classify things as piracy if it was obvious the deal was too good to be true like Windows for 2$ on eBay or chinese ROM cards for 5$ with hundreds of games.
Videos on youtube, including music, are a normal occurrence. A full blockbuster movie is usually not.
Most fastboot options dont show the logo until windows bootloader comes along.
Though i am not sure how or why the logo is displayed when windows loads? Is that the same image? Loaded and displayed again or just didnt clear the display?
Yes, it can execute code regardless of OS installed because it persists on the Mainboard and loads before any OS, making it possible to inject code into any OS.
Choose the walled garden, live in the walled garden.
ublock works perfectly, anything else shouldnt be used
If its only you and you want best security, setup a VPN system. (Tailscale, Netbird, or others are quite easy)
If someone else should also, and you dont want everyone to have to use a VPN, then you can expose some services directly. Of course behind CGNat you need some third-party system to allow this (e.g. cloudflare or a rented server).
I am not a big fan of cloudflare, they are a huge centralized company, easily allowing tracking across websites with clear-text access and kinda discouraging learning how to secure things yourself (which you have to do anyways, because you are a service provider and only cloudflare is not enough if its still publicly accessible though them)
But in the end its your choice. They easily allow you as service provider to protect yourself from DDoS attacks or allowing IPv4 access when you are behind CGNat, things you just cannot easily do yourself, certainly not without costs.
i had arr in one stack and media in another.
Now in my kubernetes cluster everything is separated, but arr + torrent is in vpn and automatically uses the vpn-sidecar. And media (jellyfin + jellyseer) is separate.
try SkipRedirect, can break some things though, but rare.
Only works for hijacked links where the extension can grab the original link somehow of course.
For general Ad Links, there is FastForward, though i feel it hasnt been on the same level of maintenance since UniversalBypass closed down and they forked it.
