"Matt, tracking on the web, it's just how it is. If we get rid of it so many companies will die off."
There were companies before tracking tech. There was advertising before tracking tech.
Tracking tech is just how they can pay the least, to get the most. It's not a right. It's not a given. It's not required.
How did it work before? You made good products and the stuff that was most popular rose to the top.
Ban tracking tech. Hamstring predatory and scammy products that survive on targeting.
Google announced that starting in June 2024, ad blockers such as #uBlock Origin will be disabled in Chrome 127 and later with the rollout of Manifest V3 (#Mv3).
The new #Chrome manifest will prevent using custom filters and stops on demand updates of blocklist. Only #Google authorized updates to browser extension will be allowed in the future, which mean an automatic win for Google in their battle to stop YouTube #AdBlockers .
#ManifestV3 is deceitful and threatening to your privacy, and now is a good time to switch to #Firefox (@mozilla) and/or #TorBrowser (@torproject) if you haven't done so already!

Crazy few work days but we’ve finally reached the detail stage! Need to give these two a clean up shave and add all the necessary detailing.
They’re both looking so handsome❤️

Folks who prefer to drive are often highly resistant to lower speed limits, skeptical about why low speeds are so important. The reason is simple: speed kills pedestrians and cyclists. This has been known for decades. From Global Road Safety Partnership:
“The human tolerance to injury by a car will be exceeded if the vehicle is travelling at more than 30 km/h. Pedestrians, as illustrated above, incur a risk of about 80% of being killed at a collision speed of 50 km/h.”
As for my sona, she's a half-blind Obstagoon by the name of Tripp. She's a singer in the band Explosive Space Mace, known for profanity, stupidity and rockin' vibes. She varies in size, but can often be pocket sized, and she loves her macro Blaziken wife.

Okay I’ve found a project on GitHub that might be able to do this! Will test it out when everything arrives.
If all goes to plan I’ll have four raspberry pis, each acting as a video player, into the modulators and then into a cable TV network broadcasting over the terrestrial UHF frequencies. No actual over the air broadcasting so it should stay self contained.
I want the system to show programs in episode order but not as a box set binge style. For example the scifi channel would show an episode of Star Trek TNG and then an episode of Babylon 5 and then maybe The X-Files.
The cartoon channel would show an episode of Earthworm Jim, then Gargoyles, then MLP, etc and then in the evening it becomes a movie channel and starts showing movies.
I want some semblence of old style British analogue TV back and as I can't get it anywhere else I'm going to make it myself.
With the four modulators that I have I'm thinking of recreating something akin to the viewing habits I had on early Sky TV:
A channel of kids shows/cartoons during the day and movies in the evening (Cartoon Network & TNT)
A channel of scifi programs and more adult anime (Sci-Fi Channel/Bravo)
A general entertainment channel (Sky One)
A documentary channel (History)
Oh also "why do this?"
1) It's interesting technology and I'm nerdy for it
2) I don't watch broadcast TV anymore because (despite the hundreds of channels) there's nothing I would want to watch at the time i want to watch it, and also I'm fed up with streaming.
I want something good to watch and it be in rotation so I don't have to choose. If I'm forced to choose I end up watching a documentary for the tenth time instead of something else I've got waiting.
