Request: ̶C̶a̶n̶ ̶w̶e̶ ̶g̶e̶t̶ ̶a̶ ̶v̶e̶r̶s̶i̶o̶n̶ ̶w̶i̶t̶h̶o̶u̶t̶ ̶a̶l̶l̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶t̶r̶a̶c̶k̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶B̶S̶?̶ See comments looks like it was a removed debug tool.

I get apps aren't free but I would have gladly paid for the app to not have to deal with this type of thing.

Edit: Ok reinstalled the github version v0.2.1+12 and not seeing any trackers. Thanks yamapikariya, very good suggestion with the difference being the github vs playstore.

Why IBM got a reputation of destroying everything they touch?
  • Bluewashed was a IBM term. Since IBMs main color is blue it went with everything. Bluetape, bluewash, blueshit, etc. Bluewashing to them was taking a program/app and doing a series of things to fuck it up.

    1. Strip out any code that might get them sued.
    2. Strip out any "bad" or "funny" comments in the code.
    3. If easily possible replace things like Apache for IBM HTTP server. Wildfly/Tomcat for IBM Websphere.
    4. Product must have an installer even if you have a product that the customer doesn't install. There's probably more that I blocked out but thats the tl;dr of it.

    Oh speaking of Blueshit. If you wanted to order something like say a laptop dock for your new laptop. Try to order it through their "buy on demand" system.

    Me: Ok its for my laptop so I can get work done.

    Them: (Some asshat in Denmark) Denied, workstations are not allowed docking stations, mice, additional monitors etc.

    Me: "hold my beer" Resubmit request: Lab equipment for the REDACTED lab, to support multiple monitors in the test environment.

    Them: (Someone in France) Approved! You should see your equipment in 2-3 weeks.

    Me: WTF??

  • What bots would you like to see?
  • undefined> When we got home, my dad was so upset that he beat me unmercifully with a set of jumper cables to teach me a lesson - you shouldn’t expose the family to such nonsense he said. Needless to say I will never rely on online bots for movie times with my family again.

    LMAO you bastard!

  • Why IBM got a reputation of destroying everything they touch?
  • This right here. When the company I worked for got bought by them our code got "blue washed" by a team of....lawyer/dev hybrids for lack of a better term. They ripped the shit out of our code. It took us years to unshitify it.

  • Benefits and Disadvantages of Self-Hosting Invidious?
  • I'm using a self hosted installation using docker thats not open to the internet. Its only open to my internal network. I would strongly suggest not making it public. Especially if you have datacaps on your ISP.

    However being paranoid about being IP banned by Google I took it a step further. I'm using Gluetun https://github.com/qdm12/gluetun to host a docker container that runs proton vpn and allows other docker containers to connect to it and use the vpn connection. Also has the benefit of being a http proxy.

  • What is your profession, and how do you rate it?
  • Sr Quality assurance engineer. Specializing in ui and api automation. Also admin over the qa/dev lab.

    Devs/Jr qa. Its like herding cats mixed in with toddlers eating crayons. While telling support to do their fucking job. I'm not doing your job too while you browse youtube/play games. And no I'm not pocket IT support. File a fucking ticket you fucking pinecone.

    All this while raining hellfire down on dev in the form of bug reports.

    6/10 up from 5/10 because they still employee me, I got a raise and they started bringing free snacks and drinks into the break room.

    edit I'm a fucking pussy compared to Fondots comment. Sorry man. I would probably headbutt a pencil over doing that.

  • omg these kittehs
