$8 mil is pocket change for the investors. It’s like eight dudes all giving their bro $100 for his art project.

The HOMES mnemonic is now SHAME.

(I’m sure some lib on bluesky figured this out before me)

I think its false, therefore its misinformation.

You’re calling me lazy when you don’t post your own sources? You’re getting offended by me simple asking “and where did you here this?”

You gotta point me somewhere here. What comm? Some old thread? The github issues?

Please be specific.

So its not tracking you across instances? Then its probably tracking the invidious instance itself and not you in particular unless invidious leaks some amount of data about your browser which is possible.

If you don’t want YouTube to be able to develop a temporary profile from a single invidious session then I think you’re out of luck. Either make a new session per-video or give up. Invidious needs to pass YouTube’s bot management somehow and once it does YouTube will give it a trackable session token.

Are you always using the same invidious instance? Does it track across different invidious instances?

Its possible that is YouTube isn’t building a profile of the user but a profile of that specific invidious instance which is all of its users collectively. Its also possible that invidious is leaking some browser info like User-Agent to YouTube. That way switching IP doesn’t matter as long as its the same invidious instance.

Switching invidious instances should clear that up. If not then you’ve got a serious problem with invidious.

You just change it when you want to drop any profile you developed. ie on browser start. The problem with changing it every page is sites will assume you’re a bot and either block you or serve you a captcha on every page.

Browser Fingerprinting. You must configure your browser to lie about what it is and change the lie repeatedly. Simplest way is plugin to change your browsers User-Agent. This will be a big deal on mobile because mobile browsers will actually report the device model in the UA. Be prepared to see lots of captchas if you do this though.

The Gates Foundation had strong objections to releasing the covid-19 patents. I’m sure they had some sort of rationale that wasn’t "this would set a bad precedent for M$ patents.

The Lemmy devs never encoded their personal beefs or political opinions into their software. They’ve always kept that to their own instance. There’s bigger assholes administering other instances. But its only Rimu and Admiral Patrick tried to impose their opnions on other instances with hard coded block lists secret shadowban lists, and hidden social credit scores.

Rimu initially made PieFed because he wanted more moderation tools that the lemmy devs didn’t want. It was always about censorship for him.

All the original PieFed fanboy power users and slowly realizing that they picked a fascist over the communists.

The sycophants worshipping his post is something else entirely. It makes me suspect there’s like a team of people gassing up his ego.

Personal lifestyle choices are totally the same as the liberation of an entire nation of people from slavery.

This is the least intellegent response I’ve gotten in a while.

Oh so that makes it okay that they rounded up all the white polish etc minority on the island

Famously the one group that was spared.

Only to then be fucked by France and the United States for the next Century afterwards.

The US and France had fucked over Saint Domingue long before Dessalines was overthrown. It was Dessalines who was forced to sign the treaty which indebted the entire nation as price for their freedom. It came with support from slaveholders like Jefferson who correctly, saw the Haitian Revolution as an existential threat to their way of life.

The point is to highlight the concept of Critical Support. Dessalines isn’t someone to idolize like Toussant, he was a ruthless thug. But Napoleon rejected the alliance that Toussant offered. So faced with the choice of re-enslavement under Napoleon and Rochambeau, I would’ve taken Dessalines any day.

Under the rule of Dessalines, Haiti became the first country in the Americas to permanently abolish slavery.

1GiB = 1024MiB and 1GB = 1000MB. OP does seem to get those confused.

Storage devices are frequently smaller than advertised just as 2"x4" boards are.

You cannot flash an image onto a device smaller than the image’s size. Your only options are to get a larger device or shrink the image. Shrinking the image is possible but not without understanding how the image is created. It should be possible by taking the published image and somehow editing it. Or by simply rebuilding the image yourself from source. Either way you’ll want to start by reading .github/workflows/build.yml from that repo.

Also, because this is doing some PS4 exploits, its possible that the exploits depend on the 256GB size. Unlikely by conceivable.
