With TLS and DoH, how is your bank and other information leaked?

… which is not a high bar.

This is about intro detection in TV shows, not ad blocking. I’m not proposing this as a good way to block ads, just noting that this feature in Plex doesn’t use a database.

Pretty sure they just use timestamps from a crowdsourced database, just like sponsorblock.

Nope, it’s analyzing the sound to guess where the intro starts and ends. Turns out this is pretty simple to implement, but quite reliable. Source: worked for Plex

yt-dl was “shut down” at one point. That led to vastly more interest and the birth of yt-dlp. I think they learned their lesson.

No, they could’t just remove a few lines of code and text - if they could, they would have done exactly that. Yuzu was fucked because they sold early access to day one compat with new games. That’s clearly illegal and scummy, even if it’s big bad corporation on the losing end of it. If they hadn’t complied they likely would have lost any litigation and might also get into other legal troubles because of likely pre-release access to games. No judge would have taken any of it lightly.

I think it’s a function of greater screen resolutions being available.

Lots of negativity and whataboutism in this thread (which I don’t disagree with), but this is still a good move.

How does that happen, exactly? Are you implying that something happened to those hospitals? Any idea what that could be?

[–] mint_tamas@lemmy.world 30 points 1 month ago (4 children)

Can you spell out exactly why hospitals are “unavailable”?

328kbps in a lossy format is plenty. You might be one of those people who claim to hear the difference, but to date we are yet to see a double blind trial where a substantial percentage of individuals reliably could demonstrate such ability.

 

My joke of a country did not order any from the updated vaccines for COVID-19, but still insists on keeping the state monopoly on it. We have private institutions where we can get pretty much any vaccine, but not COVID vaccines.

Is there any country where I could travel and get vaccinated as a tourist? Private service or otherwise.
