Is there anything that would prevent some kind of proxy stripper? I’m thinking something that loads the page with a clean agent, strips out the shit and serves a nice clean page?

Definitely beyond pihole as it stands, but doable.

GIMP + Inkscape UI refresh and I’d fund the shit out of that.

I am all US American this blessed day

While I’d love this to happen, it’s a very different proposition. We knew heavier than air flight was possible, birds had been doing it for millions of years prior to the Wright brothers. Even humans had demonstrated flight before, the Montgolfier brothers had demonstrated flight more than 150 years before the Wrights.

The issue is we know of nothing that can transmit faster than the speed of light, we have no model to work from.

Just 777 it, then it always works

I personally use piCorePlayer on a raspberry pi which is basically burn an SD card which gives you a squeezebox (basically a client) there’s a couple more steps to get lms running on top of that but the instructions are pretty good: https://docs.picoreplayer.org/how-to/install_lms/

Official docker image seems to be here https://hub.docker.com/r/lmscommunity/logitechmediaserver

You’ll want to install the “material skin” too if you do get it running, it’s a pretty modern front end:

Official forum is packed with info too:

Yeah! The squeezebox software is still out there too, it’s a sudo apt-get get away in something like it Ubuntu and just works (though does commandeer the audio on any pc you do that on by default)

Logitech Media Server (LMS)/slimserver may tick a lot of your Roon requirements.

It’d be nice if I could get a 64G model in the UK.

Not to mention how long it takes a big org to migrate, even between versions of rhel. I’ve seen 6 -> 7 migrations happen inside the last month.

It’s like someone has told them there’s no karma and they’ve misunderstood. Also kind of misses kbin and Lemmy are federated.

Sounds like you’re trying to blackmail spez there.

You can just go get Unity or UE right now. With UE you can make a $1million before you need to pay a royalty and the tooling is substantially better than any of the tools id released back in the day. (And fwiw I think it’s a crying shame id tech engines are no longer open sourced too!)

Lemmy?

It’s going to be fairly obvious fairly quickly if the big apps are nixing ads, no need to sue, just block access to the API for violation.

Is it surprising? There are specialists pushing nonsense to dupe people constantly, fake experts, real news branded as fake news. No one reasonably has the time to research every bit of news they see. The world is a weird place rn.

Yeah, this is my main issue too. Some kind of account container that could propagate round the fediverse rather than a centralised lookup would be better and more in keeping with the ethos imo.

Potentially instances could opt to load balance with each other in that case when usage rises.

Can’t understand why they don’t just pass through the ads, I don’t want them, but I could live with them. It’s this alone that makes me think they just want to kill third party apps and nothing else.
