Welp, time to expedite that switch to RustDesk, I guess!

Well that’s going to be a really awkward episode of Below Deck

Bonjour! Bienvenue à Ontario!

English is an absurd language, and something like 30% of English words are from old (Norman?) French. English is my first language and it just seems like pure chaos to me.

100 gross of self sealing stem bolts!

Soju is waaaay too easy to drink

It’s about time! 😁

Rock Around The Clock?

Good luck (I mean that sincerely). I’ve heard it’s not terribly easy to move here if you’re not a recognised refugee. There was a lot of “I’m moving to Canada if the trumpet plays” talk in 2016, but I don’t think it resulted in any significant increase in Americans moving here.

I will say, as a Canadian, I and a number of my friends are considering moving away from Canada if America goes full totalitarian (which is looking likely, if not this election then the next). It’s essentially America-lite here now, but with a higher cost of living and lower salaries. Most of us are thinking New Zealand or Ireland.

There’s actually a Python-based framework that can make mobile apps called Kivy, but as you might expect it would not be terribly performant.

I don’t believe that’s possible. I think at one point there was a way to disable all access to the history API, but I don’t believe that option exists anymore. Additionally, it would break a lot of websites.

Unfortunately I think this is probably a result of the way YouTube implements their “auto play next video” feature, and they are unlikely to change that.

An option might be using an alternative YouTube front-end, rather than using the YouTube site, but I don’t have a lot of experience with those. (other people on here do though)

No. The API is correctly named, but I can see how it could be misleading (and concerning!)

That API allows websites to programmatically go somewhere in your history. It can go forward, back, or to a specific point in your history, but it can’t see what that history is, it can only go back 3 pages back or forward 2 pages for example. It doesn’t actually know the history, it just navigates to those points in history. So Google isn’t going to know that you were on Pornhub 3 pages ago, for example.

And the caption is a play on lyrics from their song “Head Like A Hole”

"bow down before the one you serve

You’re going to get what you deserve"

Oh no. How terrible. 🙄

Anyway, how’s everyone doing today?

Hello again Mr. Stamets! ❤️

Welcome home, American cousins!

This stuff is fascinating to me, but I’ve yet to dabble in it. What kind of hardware do you have / need?
