Moral of the story: when in doubt, pixelize any potential personally identifiable information (aka PII).

Most, if not all of these images are hosted through i.reddit.com or imgur, which will stop working if the original reddit or imgur, etc post is taken down as well.

That way, OP on Reddit still remains in control even if unaware of the bot.

It doesn’t stop someone from saving the image or video and republish somewhere else without OP consent (either here or on Reddit, etc). But that’s not what the bot is doing, it’s simply linking to the original source.

The instance can also disable downvotes. It won’t block a remote instance from downvoting, but those downvotes won’t be federated and will only be seen for users of the instance where the downvote happened.

That and machine-learning for some other websites.

There’s one mod (two accounts with the same name, on two instances) and I don’t see that nickname in the moderation team on Reddit, although that doesn’t really mean much as it’s just a nickname.

Looks like some CSAM fuzzy hashing would go a long way to catch someone trying to submit that kind of content if each uploaded image is scanned.

Not saying to go with CloudFlare (just showing how the detection works overall), but some kind of builtin detection system coded into Lemmy that grabs an updated hash table periodically

MAC address is a Level 2 addressing system (OSI model) and will not leave the local network / stay within the broadcast domain. The web browser will not expose this kind of information to a web server.

I’m still not even sure what the term means…

like some mollusk said: freedom of speech, but not freedom of reach.

That said, get fscked exploding-heads.

Seems like they did no longer than 24 hours ago.

Wtf is going on with Skim’s arm?!

Would be nice if I could sync my browsing history in a way that what I watch on desktop using my Piped account gets all merged, in a secure and private way of course.

Doesn’t hurt, at least it allows

your instance admins to hide the spam
the mods from the community to ban the user from posting
the instance admins from the user that is sending spam to ban the account entirely

Depending on the website, there might be some tools specifically tailored for that website you could use that will extract the content you’re looking for, but they’re likely going to be command-line based, and you’ll likely have to extract your cookies so that the tools can work as if you were logged in your account from outside your browser.

Is it too much to ask which website?

uBlock Origin: You have no power here.

Now THAT was a dumpster fire.

Handbrake is able to “mount” ISOs, should be pretty straightforward from there.

m-p{3}

Can confirm.

You can also use ghe YaRSS2 plugin to monitor RSS feeds with torrent files/magnet links and have each rule downloads to a specific directory. Quite useful for TV shows.

For me, that size in fullHD in x265 is indeed good enough.

I went to a wedding last week and I was one of the very few who was actually watching the procession with my own eyes rather through a camera app.

Exactly why that during our wedding we made a PSA to not take pictures or videos, and we have a dedicated professional taking care of that and we’ll give access to those photos after.
