My government makes offside backups of my phone data constantly. The problem is they do not give it back when I need them.
They are a mix of small sorting games with a time limit and visual quizzes that can get really hard to solve. There was one where you have to rotate three small round pictures inside another picture to match the background picture that is basically just noise. Every market has its own multistep captcha system and they change quite a lot. Some are creative, some are just nightmare. The hardest ones are those where you have to solve multiple rotations of miniature „pictures“ that are like ultra close ups of things with an extreme compression and noise and somehow you have to decide if they are houses or bridges. The compression is so bad, you can barely even make out what those rotated 30x30 grey pixel smush are. And there are 6 of them you have to solve in a certain time. I ran into timeouts constantly and have to start over.
You have not seen captchas if you have not seen TOR Marketplace logins. Sometimes it takes me 5-7 tries to get in. After that I feel really human.
From the Thumbnail it looked like a Adobe Photoshop Error Message.
I am degoogeled with the exception for YT. Mind to share an example?
We did it Lemmings! Wohoo
I don’t get how the EU is not in arms about this. How is Apple able to get away with offering various browsers in the Store, when in the End they all are the Safari-Backend and therefore do not allow for competition in this ecosystem? How can a competitor stand out with a remarkable/better product, when he is not allowed to use his own engine? Or in this case: Prohibiting user from using Extensions like uBlock? Firefox is only a shell of their original performance when castrated by apples webview engine.
Es hat sich viel getan seit ich die Uni verlassen habe. Ich war selber überrascht als die Frau mir trifft wie viele kooperationen national und international sie im Angebot haben. Der Service für libby heisst Overdrive und ist einer der grössten internationalen services mit dem bibliotheken idr kooperieren
Hol dir einen Büchereiausweis deiner Stadtbibliothek und lade (leihe) dir Bücher und Hörbücher mit der Libby App auf dein handy. Bei mir war der Ausweis 20 EUR für ein Jahr und ich habe quasi eine flatware für englische Hörbücher.
The Video-Industry behaves just like the Music-Industry. They constantly throw dirt at the wall and look for what is sticking to it. If they find something that sticks, they throw further dirt at this point until the whole blob falls down and they start over. The saw what sticks to customers when it comes to price-hikes and now throw everything after this to see how long it will stick. Vote with your wallet.
Geizhals sowieso beste. Alle meine Zuhausis feiern Geizhals.
If it works for you, sure. In the link to the previous comment were also piped links as well as someone who told me, that my code came from the letsblock website. Definitely worth also to check out. Very sophisticated blocking sniplets there.
Same. I do not need this media Format on YT.
For anybody wanting to block it via uBlock, here is the code from a previous comment:

This is the best thing I heard all day. Thank you!
Do you know why it is so badly reviewed? 4.3 is not that high. I skimmed the reviews and saw some people say it only works 30% of the time and another said it “does not work in FF but in Brave” (so relatively sure its just a astroturfing comment). I see they have a github, so I could go the way of reading the JS code and package it myself into a extension somehow that never updates, but that is easier said than done.
I really wish there were more ways to trust extensions. There are so many shady extensions who update in the background and insert malicious code on a later state when they gained track, that it is really hard for me to trust any of them. Eespecially when those Extension ask for nothing less than all my data on all my visited websites. For this reason I really would like to see this implemented natively in FF and not via an extension. Extensions are good for edge cases. The GDPR consent request is not an edge case. It is something everyone has to click several times a day. This is screaming for a permanent solution.
I wish I could toggle a switch natively in firefox (without a fishy extension) to set a flag, that sites have to respect/follow. Cookie banner are only the frontend result of something that could be implemented in software. In the same way as the EU can make everyone follow these rules or get fined, they could extend the rules to acknowledge my set flag automatically in the browser or get fined. Maybe in the future… I can’t believe my children will still have to click deny on every website in the year 2030.
This company is insufferable.
