I think it might be just the icon maybe. Idk I don't use iOS

here's an example cURL request for channel videos pastebin.com/xv7nkw1a, 31 videos in the first request, more if you do pagination. Got it in about 379 ms.

Ah! Then there's also endpoints for that, something with /browse in YouTube (check network tab on YouTube ig) Not all info about the video is there (description for example. Haven't really checked the speed.

You can probably go search the url on GitHub or smth to find uses & postbody.. and protobuf stuff, or get it from your browser, and see how much of the request you can remove with it still working, then use it maybe

The internal one is what is called when you search thru the YouTube web app, it has some filtering things pre-existing (on web there's a filter button, encoded in protobuf for the request), and it doesn't require an API key. Unsure how much better it is, the url is www.youtube.com/youtubei/v1/...

Is this based on the official YouTube API, or the internal one (youtubei)?

i built an entire x86 CPU emulator in CSS (no javascript)

you can write programs in C, compile them to x86 machine code with GCC, and run them inside CSS

Microsoft's things like to let you make your account, suspend you a day later and force you to enter a phone number or verify or whatever

I'm currently in school, and teachers do encourage using LLMs for certain things. Once something has hit education, it's usually too late to be pulled back, you'll have a bunch of kiddos in the new generation who use AI for tasks. Kinda scares me a bit >_<

the watchers: how openai, the US government, and persona built an identity surveillance machine that files reports on you to the feds 53MB of source code leaked from a government endpoint. 269 verification checks. biometric face databases. SAR filings to FinCEN. and the same company that verifies your ChatGPT account.

I *KNEW* the sudden push for identity verification was for nefarious reasons!

Went to go try and setup a teamspeak server for the lolz and old devices. You have to pay 55$ to teamspeak if you want to host a server ON YOUR OWN HARDWARE with more than 32 people. and they still haven't dropped it.

I wonder why everyone went direct to discord lol.

Yup! In some cases it just shows Content not available too. When it is. :(

It does seem like that might be it, i'm shocked it took them that long to go figure it out lol. (though i do gotta admit, if it's hiding your replies and such without telling you, (i think from looking at your posts this is the case?) it does look a lot like a shadow ban being accidently applied

holy fuck I can't word today.

Is there a link to something like a GitHub issue where the bug is outlined if the cause is known already?

PDSls Browse the public data on atproto

The thing where the reply is lost (the appview) is open-source, you can just... look at it and check if there is shadow banning. For how many events it has to process, store and sort per second (pdsls.dev/firehose?ins...), I wouldn't be surprised if something is going wrong for a few posts.

You should probably be careful when outright deleting your account. After 30 days, anyone can claim your username. Anyways, nice job on getting away from Elon Musk app :D

I wonder how they took this, did they have an emulator that could achieve higher resolution?

you probably want to disable maximizing it, and probably scaling the window at all.

If you did that, then any blurs you apply to hide things like serial numbers would become unhidden
