Technically we are just keeping the waters clean of unusable, useless garbage. The ad corps are invading our waters.

Losing privacy for convenience has been happening. We use GPS on our smart phones for better directions. We install listening devices to add things to shopping carts and to play music by voice. We install cloud security cameras at home. We accept free WiFi in stores which gives them our cell phone info and our location. We use digital cash instead of physical cash. We buy things online rather than going to the store. Every device, like a toaster, has a MAC address.
FreeBSD doesn’t have desktop environment built in. So maybe running from command line or installation is a lot faster.
BSD might be faster but companies choose BSD because the BSD License is much more flexible than the Linux General Public License. Apple was even able to create their own license, the APSL. They would not be able to do that using Linux.
I use Catima and I am happy with it but it doesn’t have the feature to crop images and use it as a logo. It’s easy enough to image search logos though.
Yes, that is adding controls and using a database from the SponsorBlock server.
What I mean is a plugin cannot see the video. Like you can’t write
if(screen == adScreen) {
then skipToNextSegment();
}
The plugin isn’t reading the video, it is getting info from a database. For AI or machine learning to work ad injection, which might change for every user, doing what SponsorBlock is doing is not enough.
Plugins can add controls and it can download videos, but plugins can’t interact with videos directly I think.
Maybe use the Youtube API closed captions and figure out the patterns for ads that way?

It is down for me though.
Worldwide, Mario is more recognizable than the mouse. Nintendo is going to start their own movie studio soon. They are copying the blueprint set out by Disney.
Me complaining about how Amazon Prime Video is complete trash.
Out of all the streaming services, Amazon is the fucking worst.
In the days of DVDs, Blockbusters and Netflix sending out DVDs, this was mostly used to rip DVDs.
I was watching a show on Amazon Prime and they added in unskippable ads. On top of that it kept on buffering on me.
Why would I subject myself to that? Why should anyone?

Bring them a dumb phone. Ask them to install the app on it for you. Tell then you are not buying a new phone just to use the gym.
I never used a VPN with it. I’ve been using it for years. I figured I’m getting it directly for YouTube. Google already knows my IP. I figured they wouldn’t care unless I abuse it anyway.
