Is this a parody of something?

"raw html" that does not work without JS (I mean literally, links are not links without JS), but on the other hand looks ugly even if 10 lines of CSS would make it look nice

Could you elaborate on "links are not links without JS"?

If you turn Javascript off, the Markdown-formatted text will not display as a clickable link, but like "[hugo](https://gohugo.io/)". You would need to copy and paste the link into a browser address bar to navigate there instead of just clicking the link.

You can't post direct links you get from youtube on your server to the users, they will get 403 most often if they use these links from different IP.

Heck, you even have the IP in the link itself :) 2605:a140:2236:8761::1

Also for protected media, like this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJQP7kiw5Fk it only gives 360p and audio this way. Far from 4K you promise.

I was hesitant to open the link, thought it was a rick-roll. I've been working on the other downloaders, and I guess YouTube is one of the most used platforms, a lot of people are asking me to fix the youtube-downloader, I think I'll start working on that, thanks for bringing it up.

Where can one learn how to do this and all the mechanics of how its done? One of my greatest fears is not having good YT streaming and downloading solutions in the future :(

I use Firefox and I see (on the player's settings) that it goes as high as 1080. The addon of my InternetDownloadManager also goes as high as 1080.

In Poland it's rare, but it's there. I have one and my last two summer vacation stay places had them.

I wonder if is there a monetary reason to be on youtube (music)?

I listen to most music on yt music (although their client sucks) and buy stuff on bandcamp whenever i love some band and it's available there. I've never seen a value in spotify - limited library with no ability to fill the gaps with custom files (like you can do on YT music), client is meh, additional cost or ads are meh too.

Facebook is long dead to me. Half of the pages I once subscribed to are taken over by bots posting scams and even porn, with graphic thumbnails, yet there is no single filter to catch this, wtf.

i liked seeing README immediately. I don't care that much for files list, source code. But README is the essence of what I'm looking for usually

I dunno, I semi-frequently want to look for a handful of files beyond the readme - license for obvious reasons, Dockerfile often tells me a lot about how to actually compile a thing, a handful of language-specific files indicate ex. what compiler version it needs. (Though I agree it's a pretty hard 80/20 rule with the readme being most of the value, then a tiny handful being the next 80% of the remaining value)

enshittification just hit another website. expected.

> Touchscreens. They are a safety hazard.

That's true. But keep in mind everyone have them now. They can be the threat to you.

A car that does good on crash tests should also be very preferred now :)

How often are people touching screens? I have a 2023 BMW and it’s all screen. But, I can usually set it once and not touch it again! Am I crazy?

I imagine it depends on what the screen is used to control. I tend to adjust things like climate control fairly often, for instance, or the radio/music player. I've seen crazy often used things that require the touch screen in some cars, too, such as wiper speed

Fingerprint is never safe. I can just get your phone and it will be all covered with your fingerprints.

It's like sticking a note with a password on your computer :)

Personal protip: I use fingerprint lock, but anything sensitive on my phone is blocked with extra pattern lock. With unlocked phone you can access my gallery but you cannot access bank apps. IIRC this will be the built in feature of next Android, I use Xiaomi smartphone which has many extra security features like this one since basically always. Maybe there is an app for this too, I don't know.

Of course this isn't 100% secure, I probably have USB Debugging unlocked, but at least saves me from a random person just grabbing my phone while I'm on a bus and running away with unlocked phone.

Before anyone asks "But aren't bank apps already locked with their own PIN codes?" - yes, they are. But some forces me to have 4 digits PIN only, some even suggests using fingerprint to unlock them (and for some I do). But I'm also blocking Google Play, a browser where I do the most private stuff, I could block a messenger app. Basic apps does not have extra security features.

What ROM are you using on your Xiaomi?

It should not matter that I'm using Xiaomi.eu ROM, this was available on stock rom too.

But actually you made me think.. So I'm not sure about current models sold in EU, they removed a lot of MIUI features and replaced them with shitty Google alternatives on EU roms. But would they remove such a "deep" feature? It's not "just an app", it's a system core feature to me.

If you have this "Security"/"Control panel" (idk how it's named in English right now) app (the one with green shield icon) this feature should be available to you

Thanks. My question was aimed more towards both caring about security and using a stock MIUI ROM, which seem to contradict each other.

Maybe, but I feel that s not the point here
