no I can confirm that it work without gapps on Lineage… probably something else…

Invidious public instances have been completely blocked by this, it’s no longer AB testing. IDK exactly what triggers it but, too many requests from the same ip is going to show this now… maybe OP vpn exits with an ip shared by too many…

Which bridge do you use? do you self-host it?

The point is just differentiating your behavior between what you call a “bad” or a “good” junior.

And from experience the difference is whether they want to learn (regardless of their skill!!) or not (i.e are they passionate or it’s just a job?).

Passionate seniors get frustrated when they try to teach bad juniors, but there is no point on doing that, the problem was just that the senior was not involved in the hiring process…

I get what you mean, I think in a realistic scenario this only work to circumvent some laws. if you are tortured by someone who know about this and don’t care about your life, then it’s meaningless.

Does not “help protecting privacy”, that is marketing. It’s a system for ads that track you in a more privacy-friendly way then other alternatives.

Peoples are mostly angry at the fact that they just silently slipped this system in without asking for consent.

I’m currently on a TLK, and mostly because I want to learn to stop moving my hands away from the home row. It’s not even only about arrows, but also home/end page up/down etc. and combinations with them which I use a lot and it just get slow and weird since I have to reposition my hands every time… mine is currently quite limited in what I can program it to do unfortunately.

QMK looks good, also because I’m familiar with C. I’ll probably go with a prebuild to start out since I’m mainly interested in customizing the setup for now, thanks!

very nice pointer, have you flashed this on any keyboard?

I’ll add something which is not mentioned: Unreal Engine, one of the most popular game engines, is source available, but not open source. Many games modify it but its then impossible to release those sources. I’m guessing that it’s the same with many other engines…

The main issue is more about how many FOSS devs are available to implement what you just said unfortunately…

I meant that without these people who constantly work on it, Invidious would instantly die, we shouldn’t take them for granted…Google is constantly making changes that breaks it.

Btw they are not actually failing: just a few weeks ago Invidious was completely broken, but a guy posted a PR to fix that like the day after…

I kinda agree with you, being impossible to contact is probably unachievable in today society…Isn’t it more important to avoid sharing more personal information, like your exact location history with Google? (or pls explain me the downvotes)

No there aren’t just disable it from tarallo_settings!

Still haven’t got around installing Lineage on my phone to get rid of Google there

I’m going through that right now, definetely worth it, but it can be quite a job on some devices, have a spare phone ready when you start :)

Recently Teams is blocking Firefox even on Windows, but changing user agent was enough in my case…

Exactly, making everyone to switch over to something else is impossible…l’ll uninstall it as soon as they roll this out

In one of my jobs, they were automatically locking any push 2 hours before the shift ended.

I’ll give a different perspective on what you said: dx12 basically moved half of the complexity that would normally be managed by a driver, to the game / engine dev, which already have too much stuff to do: making the game. The idea is that “the game dev knows best how to optimize for its specific usage” but in reality the game dev have no time to deal with hardware complexity and this is the result.
