This one is already in the default uBlock filters - Badware risks

I also strongly suggest adding https://big.oisd.nl/ as a filter list. It’s a large and well maintained domain blocklist (sourced from combining lots of other blocklists) that usually adds lots of these sorts of domains quickly and has very few false positives.

If you want to take it even further, check out the Pro list and Thread Intelligence Feeds list here https://github.com/hagezi/dns-blocklists

These can all be added to a pihole too if you use one.

This is why ublock origin is an essential security tool.

This is a forum for general discussion, not a question and answer board.

Ok but I don’t see how that was ever in dispute?

Companies cry the same way about the bills to ban end to end encryption, and they’re still bad for consumers too

Every new game that is released with a character dressed in even a slightly sexually suggestive way results in a rabid meltdown from braindead Twitter users. Payment processors like PayPal are forbidding the use of their services for NSFW content due to pressure from fundamentalist christian organizations like Exodus Cry, under the guise of “child safety”

In general, AM radio is the playground of the right wing and I’d love nothing more than to fuck them over because that’s the only thing they’ve ever known.

This is an unhinged take. Kill off the most simple to implement and farthest travelling radio system that would be essential in the event of a nationwide blackout or other emergency (and let the spectrum get sold off to some megacorp), just to own the cons because they broadcast stuff that nobody listens to anyway?

Emergency broadcasts can be made on FM, its not as big of a loss as we fear it will be.

It would be a big loss. FM does not travel beyond the horizon. AM does not require a functioning electrical grid powering the whole country and hundreds of towers linked to telecom services. AM receivers can be built with household scrap. We can get by currently with FM for emergencies, that’s what NOAA weather radio is, but vast swaths of the desert and rural areas are presently left uncovered, and a nationwide power grid or telecom outage would severely impact the service.

I don’t think the severe privacy consequences could ever justify any use of this

When Amazon thinks “sub” means “submissive” rather than “subscriber”

I think it should be allowed to set limited data cap OR limited/guaranteed speed, but never both

They’ve been using opus for probably around a decade at this point, and in fact YouTube was a pretty early adopter of it and had a large role in popularizing it

I have a 5900x (zen3), and apparently I got a bit unlucky with the silicon and ended up with a CPU that’s slightly unstable at its stock voltages and stock boost clock. The system would freeze and reboot randomly, and the bios would report an MCE error. This crash could be reproduced with near 100% success by doing sha1 hashing specifically for some odd reason. This is not a Linux issue, it’s a hardware defect.

It may be an Asus motherboard specific thing, but I found a workaround by going to the bios settings, precision boost overdrive, and increasing the voltage scalar to like 7. Now it’s been two years and I have only ever had it happen once since I changed that, so I’m happy.

@Mistral@lemmings.world Compare and contrast ChaCha20-Poly1305 and AES-GCM

@Mistral@lemmings.world what are boobs? I’m a visual learner btw

Why should I care?

It’s useful for security researchers to collect and analyze what the newest attack bots are trying to do, in order to learn how to defend against it and study the malware they drop. There are some cool videos on YouTube about decompiling malware dropped by the bots.

I already force Wayland global for SDL games because the xwayland one has a horrible stutter while the native Wayland works flawlessly. Making it the default sounds reasonable to me. If specific programs don’t work with it, they can override it

Ratios that extreme would probably only be seen in cases where the source video was really poorly compressed anyway, which is what the commenter probably experienced. I’ve had that happen before too. Expect more like half the size compared to H264, which is still pretty good

At its highest compression setting (zstd -T0 -19 --long), it’s about the same as lzma in compression ratio (varies a bit from file to file though), but slightly faster to compress, and much much faster to decompress. Decompression speed is not significantly affected by the compression setting (though compression speed is) and is usually at least a few hundred MiB/s to 1G+

It’s the spectral emissions lines
