Seems to be a tool for taking an image and Geo-locating it, even in cases where other sources of data like Googles street map cars are insufficient.

OpticalCharacterRecognition is a pretty common practice that’s been around for a century… (1920s)

It makes a lot of sense when you consider those with visual impairments.

At least it’s an inclusive rainbow butthole, lol

Somehow that posted as an entirely empty comment… Here’s what was supposed to be in it:

(linked in the above article) https://mullvad.net/en/blog/wireguard-future

As of Dec. 6, 10,138,526,722 URLs have been requested for delisting from 5,402,321 domains, indicating a rather small number of sites committing these alleged infringements.

Since when is 5.4 million a ‘rather small number’?

But, what does that actually achieve besides limiting Canada’s ability to, for example, seize assets? TikTok, being a digital platform, isn’t very dependent on regional presence; it’s not like you’ve gotta head to their offices to post/view content.

If TikTok/ByteDance isn’t complying with Canadian laws/standards, Canada no longer has leverage to influence change.

How does this actually ‘harm’ TikTok and/or protect Canadians?

The article writer’s didn’t even read the paper they are reporting…

This is power-over-skin. Ie: power transmitted from one device to another via human skin. It’s not harvesting or generating energy from the human body.

The research paper, published by Andy Kong, Daehwa Kim, and Chris Harrison from Carnegie Mellon University, notes that the human body is particularly efficient at generating 40 MHz RF energy.

No. It doesn’t. At all…

Page 1 of the research paper PDF:

We call our technique Power-over-Skin Prior work has found that the human body is particularly efficient at conducting 40 MHz RF, while largely confining transmitted power to the body

Seems it’s a re-write of this article from Monday, leaving out the transmitter part.

(their source from 3 weeks ago) https://youtu.be/5PEN04-jyCU?si=JzzeLW6KalDKxOss

Power isn’t harvested from the human body it’s transmitted (in really small amounts) across the body from one device to another, using capacitive coupling and 40MHz AC voltage.

[…] the Government of Canada has ordered the wind up of the Canadian business carried on by TikTok Technology Canada, Inc. The government is taking action to address the specific national security risks related to ByteDance Ltd.’s operations in Canada through the establishment of TikTok Technology Canada, Inc. […]

[…] The government is not blocking Canadians’ access to the TikTok application or their ability to create content. The decision to use a social media application or platform is a personal choice. […]

Sooo, what’s the goal here? How does this help, or effect, Canadians?

Do you perhaps have a non-English system language?

Radarr has settings in each quality profile to select a release language, but Sonarr does not… Wondering if it’s tied to system language instead.

I do not see this issue: titles search in English only. (including the example series ‘The Penguin’)

It is a Linux tool unfortunately :/

You could use it to clone the windows disc/partition from a Linux machine/live usb, try out your de-bloating process, and restore again via a Linux machine/live usb if needed.

Some more reading, for those following along:

I don’t think that would have changed if not for the backlash Microsoft has received for it.

Now, supposedly it’s optional and off by default, but that could change again anytime…

If you selfhost paperless-ngx, there are option to add email accounts and regularly import emails+their attachments like any other document. You can then have it delete imported mail from the mail server, or just move/mark it so you can deal with that manually.

It doesn’t currently support OAuth2 for providers like Microsoft, so you’ve gotta use App Passwords with Gmail for now, but there is a fix in the pipeline to add OAuth2 support soon. (there’s also other methods you can use to get that part working right now)

The web/browser app really really sucks on console and JF doesn’t have clients for consoles :/

It’s one of the biggest things keeping me away. Xbone is my primary streaming device, and several of my users use xbone as well.

BorgBackup creates compressed and de-duplicated backups, splitting data into chunks then only keeping unique chunks + a list of files those chunks belong too.

I’ve currently got around 470gb being backed up; compression brings that down to 320gb, then after de-duplication that’s down closer to 70gb. (there’s a lot of media metadata in there, results will vary)

17 backups going back 6 months: 8.10 TB original > 5.62 TB compressed > 326.55 GB final backup data stored on disk

/edit this thread is a week old… It showed up at the top of my ‘new’ feed…? Odd.
