/tech/ - Technology

This is a pretty good idea, might be willing to help some.
The tricky bit would probably be scraping (beautifulsoup etc.)
Many socialist news sites are not going to have an RSS feed.
You would probably also need volunteers to do tagging.

As an alternative you could have something like the main view of https://lobste.rs
But with a bot automatically collecting certain news articles, by scraping etc.
Once again with volunteers tagging them, or optionally even submitting stories.

This just got more real for /tech/
https://pluralistic.net/2025/04/27/some-animals/#are-more-equal-than-others

RSS and Atom feed if you only want per-country categorization, and each site is country-specific
I guess more granular organization would be even trickier, and obviously require DIY software
You would probably have to manually organize recent news articles according to the "news type"

If you actually wanted to make this the first step would be to gather pro-labor news sources to scrape. A minimal viable program would just scrape and output an RSS feed.

For the same reason you take the same route to work every day, why you always do things in the same order in the morning, why you tend to order the same few foods every time you go to a restaurant. People are creatures of habit. He's not addicted to porn, he's used to the routine.

Use Steven Black's porn filter on uBO and AdGuard family DNS. Sure, these are individually all easy to disable, but I've found they place a barrier on porn consumption that helps a lot if you consume porn when you're bored as much as you're horny. If this isn't enough for you, consider getting a Raspberry Pi or the like for PiHole. Perhaps even more importantly, find other things to do. Read a book, hit the gym, even just play some vidya or watch a movie.

I used to masturbate a lot, 8 to 10 times per day at least, when I was sitting at home in a home office job which required little input from my part. Spent most of my day browsing the illusion thread on 4chan h looking for cards for HS2 but I turned overemployed and I fixed my gooning habit by filling all my free time with work, it's mostly a thing that is barely on your mind when you have lots of shit on your plate, gooning is a consequence of an idle mind.

i lived 5 years without computer or phone precisely because of this reason. instead of a smartphone i started using a nokia. I recommend you using a nokia. If you say to me that you cannot renounce on having a smartphone, i say to you that most of humanity has always lived without one, that you will try to get stimulus from your enviroment, you will start learning the streets of your city or town, so many things, for me it was so liberating to live without being able to stimulate myself constantly in my room. yes that it will be uncomfortable at first but you'll learn to live without it. ITS NOT TRUE THAT YOU CANT, YOU CAN. There are even nokias with whatsapp now so you dont have to renounce being in contact with your friends and family.

This, however, is only a patch, your problem is not gooning, gooining is a symptom of a far more profound spiritual problem with a long trajectory, so, for that i recommend knowing thyself and a psichologist, not just any psichologist but a serious guy with a focation for helping you, because the iceberg goes DEEP. Without you being able to goon your life will be better, but the symptom could appear and be more tense, so you need to paralelly work on yourself and your problems that you probably dont even know in a 20% as of now.

I am currently relapsing now, i am in a relapse moment, but i have learned a lot in the years and i know that this is only a symptom of a deep and fundamental self contempt i have been wired with for years and that i need to work through somehow.

sex addiction and lack of discipline/control is a real thing. might be a hormonal thing, might be psychological. doesn't mean it's easier to deal with for everyone.

>digital-mechanical
It's called "relay logic" as an electrician I have had to work with it but luckily most of the time my clients have enough money I can convince them to replace it with PLCs.

Bio-digital?
Bioelectrical/Biomechanical = nervous system

>But isn't there any form of media or machinery where it's purely mechanical but in a digital manner?
many adding machines are purely mechanical and digital, including mechanical cash registers. Zuse's Z1 computer was also purely mechanical. I've seen papers about nanomechanical computers being a potentially fruitful approach to computing

Is Opera Chinese now?

owned 71% by a chinese company,and the chairman also owns 10% and is part of that company.
the biggest problem is still that it's chromium based

>>28927
I mean I really wouldn't care if a chinese company bought the majority of, for example, Meta. Because It would still be Meta. The CCP doesn't oversee every decision a chinese company makes for overseas ventures, just has a spanking paddle ready if a line is crossed.

It is spyware for chinese companies who have no qualms about selling your data to western porky because to get rich is glorious.

Send them email if you want to ask. I think it's a company trying to get users fast, explains the many hits of chinese websites that essentially mirror their FAQ as well.

what a stupid and irrelevant post. the whole thread you behave like a bot or a glowie. Man, this place is so rotten and dead…

If you trust the thing, picrel is the answer it gives.

Didn't realize what thread was replying in, sorry.
It's somewhat related to the comment from >>29239
>It's plausible this isn't exactly the "change you want to see in the world", (e.g. you want to see a continued advancement of the means of production etc.) but this is just a shifting of the goal post, and you're free to do as you please.
But it wasn't quoted.

You have enough storage at home to store all a youtube videos at home? Beside that, you would also need a recommending algorithm, so you can know, what to watch.

Ah, I love reading the comments on Youtube…

>>29256
Admittedly, it is not a very feasible strategy.
A better strategy would be having a list of all youtuber channel links in text, then visiting those channels with a crawler to determine new videos.

After stripping only the new ones, then potentially watching those ones, but furthermore using other video websites and doing the same for a customized feed.

>>29256
But of course having a recommending algorithm in there somewhere.

ok that sounds shitty

This is selection bias.

People open source things because they can't make a profit from them, because at least the attention is worth street cred.

You can't profit from making programmer tools, because programmers are already good at making tools for programmers, so you were never going to sell them anything. Thus all the programmer tools people make get open sourced in an attempt to salvage from street cred out of a non-monetizable project.

If a site like neocities is taking care of the hosting, and your password is half-decent, and you aren't accepting user input on your site, then it's extremely unlikely your site will get hacked.

If you find that fine to use, great. The plus side is that they can automatically manage blog things like pagination (the page numbers at the bottom) and post tags.

whtevr method u decide on usin, share the url under this thread. if ur worried about le hackers, i'd be happy to pentest it free of charge.

I was also thinking about running my own blog. But then I realized, that I can just use leftypol to dump my schizo ramblings. This is much easier!

>Do human faces creep you out or something lmao.
It's not so much the faces as much as the context of their presence. I don't like that it's normal to show one's face on youtube to the point where it seems like the algorithm incentivizes it, and it's trendy to do a "face reveal" if you don't already show it.
In elementary school they has whole days dedicated to teaching internet safety, several tapes and stories about it. I strongly believe most people should be at most pseudonymous online when practical, so anything that stands to erode that is icky to me.

Showing your face on the internet should've never been normalized.

Bro really asked for an extension to hide soy faces on Youtube, thats hilarious.
Im all for it.

>>29029
Boomers have been posting their faces online since the mid-late 2000s

>>29029
That's why you wanted to filter vids with faces? I honestly thought it was because videos with soyfaces in the thumbnail are usually shit quality slop, and by blocking those search results the signal to noise ratio would be better.
