Looking at that list, this suggestion seems entirely appropriate.

Nebula might be the answer for you. A low annual fee means every video you watch gives a portion of that fee to the artist.

Thanks for posting this! I have the same router.

Awesome. Perhaps now there will be some renewed focus on screen reader support?

Can we really call it a “spill” if they dump it deliberately?

It’s a different kind of world. You need a different kind of software.

Put Linux on it. 😃

That’s the plan, though I doubt I’ll be able to do a proper install remotely. I may have to wait 'til I visit again, or maybe he can mail it to me.

I also am a fan of splashtop. Works well for me on windows and mac.

Thanks for the suggestion! I’ll add it to the pile. I had no idea there were so many different ways to do something like this. Do you know if SplashTop is very “boomer-friendly” or if it works on rather old machines?

Those all sound promising. Chrome Remote Desktop sounds like the easiest for him since he’s most comfortable with Google things. Thanks!

I hadn’t heard about RustDesk, hence my question. I’ll check it out.

Don’t these dipshits have anything better to do?

Could he now sue the people that beat him (or even Sainsbury’s)?

That’s an interesting thought. There’s a lot of cases you see where people have stripped a comic’s name from the bottom of the image, but that’s not really what this project was designed for. Aletheia will guarantee you that the person/company sharing the media is who they say they are, but critically it won’t prevent infringement.

The example I give in my talk is that InfoWars could take a BBC news story and say “we made this”, but it wouldn’t let them modify that story and claim that “the BBC made this”. The goal is to be able to re-connect what someone is saying with the reputation of the person saying it, with the hope that we can start delegating our trust to individuals and organisations again.

I wrote a version of this in Python a few years ago, but it depended on external tools like ffmpeg to work, limiting its portability. The Python requirement was also a major factor for adoption.

If it were ported to Rust, doing the (de)serialisation internally, I believe that it could have far-reaching implications on how we share and consume news:

If you’re interested, I presented the Python version at PyCon UK a while back.

This is the path to enshitification.

Fuck yeah.

Awesome, thanks!

It says it’ll hit “overnight”, but surely in 2024 we can be more accurate than that?

“Deeply frightening” can you name even one thing Corbyn said or did that was antisemitic other than be openly antizionist? Given that it’s Israel’s Zionist regime that’s currently committing genocide, I would think Corbyn would have been vindicated by now.

Heh. We’ve convinced our kids that Paw Patrol and Cocomelon “don’t work on our TV”. All I had to do was let her select it a few times and then kill the network connection when she wasn’t looking. After that, we marked them as “disliked” in Netflix and now they never appear.

It may not last, but I’m doing what I can :-)
