This is one of the most sensible comments in the thread. The law is the problem. This is something which should have been self regulated by websites themselves, but Meta lobbied for laws like this so they wouldn’t have to police it. The law making this mandatory for everyone when this should be a parental control is the issue.
IMO the benefit and curse is you could fork it, maintain it, patch it yourself, etc if you wanted, but then its a full time job keeping it up to date with changes. As others have pointed out, this is a decisive change, so a fork probably wouldn’t be a solo project, but the bifurcation in development would be a large impact, slowing development in other fixes and features.
Thank you, not sure why OP didn’t cross-post the original post here?
This isn’t isolated to tech and is how bigotry persists
So like Pokemon Animal Crossing?
Assuming the laptop you’re looking to control has HDMI out and USB input for Keyboard and mouse, I think you’re right with the KVM switch idea, one that supports USB and HDMI input, and can switch between them between two devices. What I would do is get something which can record HDMI on your main PC. Some gamer devices have HDMI passthrough, which you’d plug into the KVM switch, but you could also use an HDMI splitter to have a feed from the laptop going into the KVM switch and to the recorder on your main computer. On your main computer, you could use OBS Studio to record the video from the laptop.
Not sure when the sale happened, but there was a recent video about the invention of the Blue LED from the past year which was really good, highly recommended. To me click bait implies the contents are not worth the headline / title / thumbnail, but old Veritasium and recent have kept up mostly the same level of quality IMO. I will say updating old video titles and thumbnails to juice the numbers was annoying, but the optimist in me figured that at least people who had not previously experienced old Veritasium got it recommended to them which is a positive.
I think your best bet is to disable suggesting any contacts from the system settings. The setting is called “Show contacts when sharing content” and will affect all apps. It’s not ideal, but there’s no way I can tell to ignore/dismiss specific contacts from the share menu.
The standard is called TOTP and Google became synonymous with it because they pushed it in the late 2000s for Gmail and have a large user base. Other sites did have systems beforehand, like Paypay which had a dedicated fob, but that was not widely used. Gmail was likely most people’s first experience with MFA and Google pushed their own Authenticator app (and didn’t really advertise that others could be used). As other sites got on board, it was easier to tell people to use the app they use for google to get their code, since you could assume people had the app.
Basically that made a situation where people who had a different TOTP app knew their app would work with “Google Authenticator” but for those without an app or using Google Authenticator, they were likely unaware of the interoperability and standards behind the mechanisms.
I would go into the Outlook app and clear the storage and cache and see if that helps. If you don’t want any contacts to show in the list, you can disable “Show contacts when sharing content” if you search for this in settings.

They are requiring Plex Pass for all remote sessions, even ones which don’t go through plex servers, where your client connects to your remote plex server directly. IMO, this should not require Plex Pass if the remote stream is not going through Plex’s server.
Also since the April 2025 update where they required the payment, the “new experience” apps have been terrible, and people have been side loading the old apps because they retain core functionality. Maybe there was a technical reason to release new apps to enforce the Plex Pass requirements, but it has been a terrible experience being told to pay money and then getting a worse experience, compared to what was free a year ago.
I bought Cyberpunk on Stadia on release day, since I couldn’t play it anywhere else, and it was actually great for me. The technical issues I ran into were all because the game was buggy, not because the service was bad. The biggest issue was the self self-fulfilling prophecy that Google was going to kill it, and not worth subscribing to (which they eventually did kill because of low usage). I think that if Google had spun out Stadia as it’s own company, it may have succeeded.
Plus google doesn’t really care if the obscure LucasArt codec is actually fixed, they’re raising the bugs publicly to sell their AI. This is marketing, not security. The more bugs it finds the better, since sales doesn’t care about the quality of the bugs found.
Wow this is so good. Love the judge in this case:
Proven had demanded a preliminary injunction that would stop McNally from sharing his videos while the case progressed, but Proven had issues right from the opening gavel:
LAWYER 1: Austin Nowacki on behalf of Proven industries.
THE COURT: I’m sorry. What is your name?
LAWYER 1: Austin Nowacki.
THE COURT: I thought you said Austin No Idea.
LAWYER 2: That’s Austin Nowacki.
THE COURT: All right.
When Proven’s lead lawyer introduced a colleague who would lead that morning’s arguments, the judge snapped, “Okay. Then you have a seat and let her speak.”
Gris is an amazing game. Love the soundtrack too.
I’d like to believe, but the source for the article is a random Medium article which claims there were leaked document, but the headline is clearly click bait. The medium post doesn’t go into any details about this, it just outlines some open source tools with “ai” to do basic tasks to run your infrastructure in AWS, not what any engineer working for AWS would actually be doing.
And if you comply with unjust laws, then it’s way harder to challenge them in the courts.
