Why use a whitelist from someone else, I disable it manually per page by using something like https://github.com/maximelebreton/quick-javascript-switcher, but there are more of those in the chrome webstore.

Thx, seems we posted at the same time. AI confirms what you say.

Okay, I figured it out by asking the Google AI (in German): https://share.google/aimode/vEQR65SSttZJkDWax

(In the case of the direct upload, more programs check the file, indicating that the direct upload may in general be a more reliable method. Though the twelve reports seem to be false positives in this case)


And, also not very funny, those corps never tell in advance which data they "require". They grab my mail on "the first page" of the registration form. Then, on "the second page", they ask for my phone and my address. Should I decide to agree to this, they will finally tell me on "the third page", that they only support credit card, no PayPal, no direct payment via Bank ...

The PSF is the most recent org which did not get my donation due to this. https://donate.python.org/ X pages, I will not know in advance which of my data is required and which payment option is supported. All this could be on one page, I guess.

More like, "no, but installation is easy", "yes, if the machine is safe", "depends on what you do"


It doesn't matter, YouTube is anyway unwatchable since everything gets autotranslated to hilarious garbage.


You mean the moonwalking bear?

I would like to see a video.


If each step was 1 frame, and the video played at 240 frames per second, the video would last about 17.5 years


Since the video screen would be larger than 1 Bpxl wide, I would accept a FHD scaled-out video.


Sure! Here you go. Open paint. Set the canvas to FHD resolution. Draw a one pixel thick, gray (#777777) line from one side to the other. You now have a perfect render, with antialiasing.


To me, it would be enough if there existed a search engine which only lists sites which do nothing of the above. But that would require that sites are honestly answering the question "are you tracking?". They won't. Corps have the same thinking as the criminals they try to keep outside.

There would have to be laws which require site owners to answer that question honestly, so that users have a choice and such a search engine can be built. But states are interested in fingerprinting too, so I guess such will never happen.


I always found Django's approach smart. The configuration files are Python files.

That said, TOML is not unsexy.

I hate JSON as configuration format, it is an exchange format, for configuration TOML is clearly more pleasant. VS Code, Sublime, you are doing it wrong.
