What are these wires? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Left most looks like cat5/6 Ethernet cable but hard to tell from pic. If there's multiple tiny, colored wires, solid and a striped, it's that. Next one is RG-59 coax. Others look like speaker wire of some sort but I'd test with a multimeter to be sure they aren't live

Edit: RG-6 to RG-59. Hard to tell from pic though

Can someone remind us what stage this is? Something like "if I did do it, they deserved it" I think

What about 'I'll ask your mom what she thinks when I see her tonight'?

Best practices for seeding? (lemmy.world)
 

I've searched for an answer for a few hours now and every site I've come across is just a copy of the last one, covering only downloading in most cases.

What are the best practices for uploading and seeding (legal) original content to stay as anonymous as possible?

I'm using:

  • Linux
  • A Paid VPN
  • A Private tracker
  • An anonymous email with said tracker
  • qBittorrent

Thank you. I signed in and was able to see the button.

I denied permissions for both the camera and notifications but now I can see the options to toggle them under settings. I will use the app for awhile and see if issues come up again

I'll take a look in the app again but wouldn't uninstalling it and downloading it again reset permissions?

I've reinstalled it but I don't see the button you mentioned, unless you were referring to the desktop/browser version? There are no settings about camera permissions in the app itself or in iOS settings

I agree with your logic but when I reinstalled the app to see if I did allow camera access, the only prompt that came up is to request permission to send notifications.

Then again, it was logged in with a Google account so maybe it has something to do with the account permissions? I'll be able to investigate that later tonight to be sure but even after logging out and a fresh download, it still prompted for only notifications.

Regarding the glossy screen, it was displaying from the rear facing camera. I apologize for not mentioning that in my post but I'll update it to reflect that.

Edit: typed front facing instead of rear facing

I've not seen this before but it was strange.

An ad loaded at the end of a video, so I paused it. What caught my eye was the background was moving when I moved my phone, which turned out to be the room I was in. The ad was overlayed on whatever my camera was looking at, but the ad appeared stretched from a single point in the middle of the screen, which was even weirder.

Edit: The ad was using the rear camera, not the front facing one.

I've looked through my phones settings and there are no options to toggle YouTube's camera access either, so I feel like it's safe to say this is being forced on users (surprise /s).

Needless to say, that app is no longer on any of my devices :)
