You can argue that, despite their opinions, the lemmy devs provide something of worth.
- Comment on Lemmy needs more donations 4 days ago:
counter-counterpoint - .ml costs ~€30/month to run, most of the money you donate doesn’t fund it.
Funding lemmy helps every other instance much more than it helps .ml. - End of 10 - Windows ten is ending. Microsoft wants you to buy a new computer. But what if you could make your current one fast and secure again?endof10.org ↗Submitted 5 days ago to technology@beehaw.org | 7 comments
- Comment on Pearson complaining about using Linux to access my course material 6 days ago:
I also use it, but it doesn’t work in this case. Thats why I said headers instead of just user agent.
- Comment on Pearson complaining about using Linux to access my course material 6 days ago:
A small publisher’s ebook platform recently started blocking firefox for me, did a bit of digging and found that if pages aren’t requested with the right headers (which work in chrome and msedge) it will respond with a 302, suggesting you go to another page which takes a few minutes and then times out.
This is probably to stop scraping, and could be because I started testing some scraping scripts on it.
Anyway, this hasn’t even stopped me scraping, I just copied the headers and use those in my script.

Leaving out the “and we tested them” bit is intentional. Trump would probably forget an important piece of info in his word vomit.

Our very great, very excellent team collected samples, and might I add these are some of the greatest samples we have ever seen! I went to the russian scientists and they said “mr. trump we have never seen samples these great” such great samples indeed.

I just searched for the original video on tiktok, where it came from.
I would do this as a last resort though.

I’m stuck on web rn, don’t have a working (smart) phone.
Its only a video of a guinea pig anyway.
- Comment on How do I download a blob: video? 1 week ago:
Its not a post at all, its a video someone sent me in a message.
I did try that, but it uses blob: urls so I can’t grab a direct linl. - Comment on How do I download a blob: video? 1 week ago:
Its not a public post.
- Comment on How do I download a blob: video? 1 week ago:
yeah, its on snapchat, a chat app, so its not too likely to have a video downloader made, especially since the app supports video downloading (just not web).
- Comment on How do I download a blob: video? 1 week ago:
As a fan of jdownloader myself, it unfortunately does not work.

- Comment on Conor McGregor 'will run for PRESIDENT' after meeting with Trump 2 weeks ago:
Lol, as an Irish person, our Electoral system is designed to keep eejits like him out.
The president does fuck all here anyway, the person with the real “power” is the taoiseach (prime minister).
by loosing out irishness, he means regularly seeing non-white people.

- Comment on Am I going crazy, or has people's spelling gotten awful lately? 3 weeks ago:
There is a few words I cannot spell, and I’ve just given up on them at this point (definitely, infinitely, critisism ).
Sometimes I type too fast and post a comment with a typo, and a few times the edit fixing it didn’t federate.

No, I ran out of blinker fluid and the price is too high from the tariffs now.
