Piped/Invidious

In the lght of recent events (gloogel complaining about uBlock) I tried to investigate other available options out there. While Piped.video definitely works, it looks like it is only fluid for popular videos, and as soon as I want to watch something a little more obscure, it is basically impossible, I have infinite wheel...

What is alien.top and why do all the users from there show up as bots and have no history?

I’ve been seeing a lot of users from alien.top commenting in various threads (mainly sports) lately. They only caught my attention because they are all flagged as bots and I typically manually block most bots (not all because there are some I like). For every one of them their entire post history consists of 1-2 comments or...

A mildly interesting Michael Moorcock/MCU connection or coincidence

Oddly, both the KDE printer setup program and the EndeavourOS Fedora (probably?) printer setup program only detected a driver version of it. I had to open up the CUPS web panel, and it...

Transcoding performance on Intel NUC

I’m taking down my big Supermicro server to save energy and moving Plex/Jellyfin/*arr to a spare 10th gen Intel NUC with SSDs. Performance is fine for DirectPlay media to my SHIELD and mobile devices, but the onboard GPU power is limited and struggles to even transcode some 1080p media – let alone 4K. Does anyone have...

Why does Google keep returning my deleted items, and how do I delete them so they stay gone?

This has been going on for over a year now. About a month after I delete items to free up space, my account will be full again with the items I deleted before. Or I will update a contact and a phone number that they no longer have will be returned to their info. What am I missing?...
