I don't understand why all these chrome derivatives and firefox don't just band together and extend manifest v3 with some vendored standardised extension that addresses the limitations.

Browsers do that for CSS and JavaScript features already. An extension could just check if the browser supports the "unlimited filters" option and use it if its available.

I have never researched it but heard that the permissions of manifest v3 are much better for privacy.

I am in favor of removing manifest v2 if the vendored extension becomes a reality.

Browsers already have too much complexity, lines of code and feature creep.

My personal theory for the curved edges is, that samsung just wanted to prevent cheap off brand replacement screens.

I have searched for alternatives. There are none that I am aware of. I just want a streaming box that can run jellyfin with a simple remote. I really don't want to use a keyboard in bed.

If anyone knows a simple setup that boots straight into jellyfin with a remote, I would love to hear about it.

So you would need buffer barrieres essentially.

Still user watches video. Ad avoidance skips forward to buffer barrier to play ad in the background. Streamed ad is thrown away and new buffer data is received. User does not notice if the video is long enough.

In this case the buffer limit is the metadata.

Can you provide some sources that support this claim?

Well the player and its controls are client side.

I think dd is the right tool for the job. Consider using pv though. It can be much much faster.

I have a samsung tv from 2016 and it always lags terribly when switching inputs. Sometimes the menu takes 20 seconds to load. What is it doing?

The biggest offenders for me are:

  • I struggle to navigate and make out alle the controls of the settings app. Somehow finding the settings visually is very difficult.
  • The new settings app is single instance. The control panel had lots of popup windows and you could open it multiple times which allowed parallel open settings windows.

It's like spectre and meltdown you also lost the advertised performance. Less performance is better than a gaping security hole or a broken chip.

Take a look at tubearchivisit. Works great and is in development.

And clearnet use is very difficult through Tor. Exit node ips are flagged and you have impossible captchas on many sites.

 

I have a static ip (lets say 142.251.208.110).

I own the domain: website.tld

My registrar is godaddy.

If I want to change my nameserver godaddy won't allow me to enter a static ip. It wants a hostname. I observed that many use ns1.website.tld and ns2.website.tld.

I don't understand how this can work because ns1.website.tld would be served by my dns server which is not yet known by others.

Do I need a second domain like domains.tld where I use the registrars dns server for serving ns1.domains.tld which I can then use as the nameserver for website.tld?

I would like to avoid the registrars nameserver and avoid getting a second domain just for dns.

Thank you for your input.

 

I have two machines running docker. A (powerful) and B (tiny vps).

All my services are hosted at home on machine A. All dns records point to A. I want to point them to B and implement split horizon dns in my local network to still directly access A. Ideally A is no longer reachable from outside without going over B.

How can I forward requests on machine B to A over a tunnel like wireguard without loosing the source ip addresses?

I tried to get this working by creating two wireguard containers. I think I only need iptable rules on the WG container A but I am not sure. I am a bit confused about the iptable rules needed to get wireguard to properly forward the request through the tunnel.

What are your solutions for such a setup? Is there a better way to do this? I would also be glad for some keywords/existing solutions.

Additional info:

  • Ideally I would like to not leave docker.
  • Split horizon dns is no problem.
  • I have a static ipv6 and ipv4 on both machines.
  • I also have spare ipv6 subnets that I can use for intermediate routing.
  • I would like to avoid cloudflare.
