The O.G. add blocker.

The concept is close to the same, how could something like this be seen as “illegal circumvention technology”?

It just shows us how disconnected the people in these positions can be that are regulating these things.

Anything but trains, subways, trams, or buses?

Tech won’t solve traffic, proper investment into public transportation will. Investment in these startups should be funneled into self driving public transportation.

Just add a search yesterday on the App Store and Google Play Store to see what new “productivity apps” are around. Pretty much every app now has AI somewhere in its name.

The ones being implemented into emergency call centers are better though? Right?

Absolutely correct, Canadian Newspaper pulled the same thing, but they also blocked social media sites from sharing or posting links to their sites, blaming the links were “summarized”. Their argument was the links were being summarized and users were not visiting the Newspapers website.

So social media sites blocked all links of Canadian news, then Newspapers cried foul after a drop in traffic.

Funny enough when you see a summarized link, such as ones that show a picture and maybe a sentence, the content shown in that summary is directly controlled by the site being linked.

That happened in Canada as well a while back.

Funny story though, web extracts that become visible when you share a link for example on a social media platform or even through a text message are actually “controlled” by the source website.

This means the short summary that can range from a sentence to a few sentences is actually completely in the hands of the source website and is not actually “scrapped” when the link is shared.

There are AUX cables that have a transmit and recive switch. You can use this to transmit the output of your iPod through AUX to a built in bluetooth receiver in your car or other device.

Just make sure what you choose has the transmitter function as most cheaper ones only have the receiver function (for use in a car stereo for example).

Can a link be provided to this consent page?

Good and should continue as such

Give me a intercity train or intercity tram any day.

Restricting access to information, what a way to control the general population.

Most PCs no longer have floppy disk readers or CD drives, where are they going to put the placebo or drugs in. /s

Its apart of a Watercooling setup

No worries, also just to let you know. I have a TrueNAS and a unraid server.

The TrueNAS server has a Unraid samba share mounted. Within TrueNAS you setup a pull task where it copies files from your remote system to keep the directory in sync. Any changes on my unraid samba share are backed up to my TrueNAS share on a predetermined schedule.

You might want to look into the pull task on your TrueNAS which will be a lot easier then trying to push files from your OpenMediavault.

Westworld here we come

If both servers are running TrueNAS (scale or core) the best way to backup a TrueNAS system to another is by using zfs replication.

You could also do the following.

1. Setup site2site VPN connection of your choosing. IPSEC maybe.

2. Temporally do the setup of the secondary TrueNAS at Site 1, unless you are sure your Site 2 is good.

3. Configure the second TrueNAS to Pull data from the primary unit. FYI, pull configuration uses it’s own login credentials is a higher level of security.

4. Migrate the second TrueNas unit to the site 2. This way you aren’t diagnosing both the Pull config and VPN settings at the same time.

Phones will still use android, but manufacturers are looking to de-google android so it’s not as heavily reliant on google services.

A example is the removal of the required Google play store.

Laptop manufacturers are also looking to move away from windows to a linux bases operating system.

TBH this is the best news I have heard all week.

What about search engines? These provide links as well.

And what about this link from OP, should Lemmy world have to pay for OP posting a link to this news article.

Could you imagine if a telephone book had to pay you or your business to list your business phone number.

Just a FYI, Canadian news agencies wanted social platforms like Facebook to pay for linking to their news articles.

The argument from Canadian news agencies was that by social platforms sharing links on their social platforms, social platforms were directly increasing their sites user traffic and benefiting with increased ad revenue. News agencies argued this decreased their own ad revenue by decrease site traffic.

Most people know a link directs a individual to the original site of the content. Since Facebook and other social sites did not want to pay a link fee they simply had chosen to remove links to Canadian news sites (as requested)

By removing links to these sites on social platforms like Facebook, news agencies decreased their surface area of exposure. Thus news agencies decreased the amount of individuals being directed to their site and news articles.

Simply put, Canadian news agencies wanted their cake and eat it too.

Now search engine like Google search for example were exempt from this mandate because they only link to the article or external site. The irony in this is real.

Obviously sites like Facebook “condensing a news article automatically” and presenting it on their own site, without a user needing to navigate away from Facebook as a example is a different issue and a valid point.

Though please be aware, generally when a link shows up on Facebook and gets formatted with a picture and a paragraph underneath it. This feature is controlled directly by the external sites integration with Facebook or social platform, and they can choose how much of the link is condensed or shown.

Also please note, some of the “Canadian news agencies” that were lobbying for this to pass are actually USA owned, and masquerading as Canadian.
