What would you need an addon for? If you enable the clipboard monitor, jdownloader automatically adds all downloads it finds from any link you copy.
Edit: If you don’t like the clipboard monitoring you can also use the Open With addon to explicitly add links.
Have a look at https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Zram - a compressed block device in RAM that can be formatted as swap. There are various tools to set it up, maybe your distro already includes one of them. And htop has a meter for it, so you can see how effective the compression is (besides its own zramctl tool).
But if you implement something in your browser that allows websites to block anything that isn’t an accepted browser (and websites use it because they don’t want their precious data to feed random AIs) you effectively prevent any potential competition from crawling websites to build a search index that might threaten your position.
Someone who is sponsored by an account seller, i.o.w. who doesn’t mind breaking ToS but then seems to complain about others scripting, i.e. breaking ToS might not be the most unbiased and reliable source.
Considering the trust they’ve lost I don’t think they’ve planned to do it this way. And if they didn’t plan it, they assumed that their original plan wasn’t going to result in much opposition, so that was the plan they wanted to go with.
If no person does anything nothing changes.
Of course your own choices in isolation don’t change much. But that’s like saying voting doesn’t do anything because a single vote doesn’t matter. We all can make choices that add up through all of society.
I’m not saying a few people fucking over the rest is a conspiracy theory.
I’m saying that all those conspiracy theories people love to discuss are pushed to capture the attention of those people and have them think they’re involved in something important and spend all their energy on that, so the assholes can keep on fucking them over without much resistance.
If musicbrainz has an acoustic fingerprint for the songs it doesn’t need metadata. Picard is more or less the GUI version of beets.
Just the boring one: That all the exciting conspiracies (and other stuff like “culture wars”) are there to distract from the banal reality of most people and the world being exploited by a few selfish assholes.
It was time to switch to Invidious anyway.
Which will stop working once this is implemented, since it doesn’t use a trusted browser to access YT. As will any kind of automated access. Search engine bots, archive crawlers, third party apps… anything websites don’t like or know won’t be able to access them anymore.
Let’s hope there’s already a law that the EU can find to apply (since they already don’t like the non-EU dominance of big tech), or that they make one in time.
feels a little shady for Google to immediately do this immediately after payment stops. Not saying it’s a direct retaliation
It’s not: https://www.reuters.com/technology/twitter-resumes-paying-google-cloud-bloomberg-news-2023-06-21/
I guess that was boring so it didn’t get much attention.
The study says “subluminal” in its abstract, the linked article hides that between lots of speculation and talk about fictional FTL warp drives, so I’d say the study is ok, the article is clickbait.
