I much prefer doing ocr by myself if really needed, than getting an half assed “book” full of typos and broken tables just because someone did an automated OCR but didn’t have the 5-6 hours required to manually edit to make it decent
Already be thankful that someone took the time to flip page by page in their scanner manually and upload it somewhere
the main problems of those blocking orders, worldwide, not only in india, is that while blocks are immediate and done with no supervision directly in the hands of the copyright trolls, unblocks are slow and need 100+ approvals
The first batch of Nintendo switch (millions and millions) have an unpatchable flaw that allows the owner to run whatever he wants. They use this flaw to run a program that simply extracts the files from the game cartridge
About the root problem, as of now new installs are trying to let the user to run everything as a limited user. And the program is ran as root inside the container so in order to escape from it the attacker would need a double zero day exploit (one for doing rce in the container, one to escape the container)
The alternative to “don’t really know what’s in the image” usually is: “just download this Easy minified and incomprehensible trustmeimtotallynotavirus.sh script and run it as root”. Requires much more trust than a container that you can delete with no traces in literally seconds
If the program that you want to run requires python modules or node modules then it will make much more mess on the system than a container.
Downgrading to a previous version (or a beta preview) of the app you’re running due to bugs it’s trivial, you just change a tag and launch it again. Doing this on bare metal requires to be a terminal guru
Finally, migrating to a new fresh server is just docker compose down, then rsync to new server, and then docker compose up -d. And not praying to ten different gods because after three years you forgot how did you install the app in bare metal like that.
Docker is perfect for common people like us self hosting at home, the professionals at work use kubernetes
I very rarely backup game saves but only the thought of being locked to a console puts me off. I can’t possibly invest 100+ hours in a Pokemon game and lose everything of the battery dies, screen breaks, console is forgotten on a bus or stolen, and so on.
DVDs were introduced in the western market in 1997 so it can’t be produced in 1993.
If it’s an audio cd or a cd-rom, maybe it was damaged from the beginning. I have many original disks from the early 90s that have “disc rot”, the data layer decomposed and are now unreadable. Watch it with a light behind it, if you see many small dots, it has disc rot and it’s now gone
If then it’s actually a DVD from 1993, then it’ a prototype that can’t be read by modern drives because it predated the standard
You need something like tmpgenc to make Blu-ray compliant discs
I don’t really understand this though, the cost per GB of a blank double layer bluray is higher than an hard drive. Just store Blu-ray images (or direct rips) on the disc and access them on your device. In this way you don’t need to worry about disc damages, bad burns, lost media, and so on.
At the price of a disc + the time to source and take a full disc rip + the time to source a good scan of the cover and disc surface + printing labels and covers + the bluray box (you said you want to look professional so you aren’t planning to just keep them in a spindle and use a sharpie, right?) You’re basically paying almost the same of a real disc
They have to turn on the brain, gather a list of their favorite creators, subscribe in freetube, then it can have an home page with “recommended” videos
The lack of the algorithm is exactly why I like freetube
I just unsubscribe when it becomes too prominent. There was a guy doing a recap of the news of the day in 5 minutes. Suddenly added 2 minutes of ads. Fuck that
