If you’re thinking specifically of torrents, then a seedbox or torrents are probably more your speed. I forgot which community I was in for a second.

As far as large files go, I feel you. I have a NAS at home that I share with friends but my residential internet upload speed is slow. What I’ve ended up doing is opening a Storj account and mirroring the NAS to it. Not sure if this is relevant (at all).

Maybe someone else can comment here, but there’s got to be some dead simple web interface you could host where you copy/paste a URL and it downloads it… maybe just wget or curl from the host instance?

I’m no Oracle Cloud expert but I’m wondering how Telegram fits into transferring files.

Is there a reason you’re not using traditional tools like ssh or rsync? You could even use Samba or FTP if you really wanted to (not recommended).

Just trying to understand the problem.

At some point society will need to realize that traditional work that is handled by automation (whether AI or not) isn’t necessary and economic systems will have to change.

I’m not an expert by any means, and I just don’t see this happening in the near-term. My opinion is that for now (the short-term at least) it’ll just widen the gap between rich and poor.

I just block people like this and/or disengage.

I’ll take that off your hands there buddy

Yeah, this is more funny than anything. Very creative problem-solving on their part.

TL;DR; A CRM is what makes all your interactions with companies so fucking terrible these days, like programmers now everyone’s got a ticket they just want to close out.

What universe do you live in? Liberals are like this? 🤣

I probably can’t be of much help yet unless for some reason you want to take up programming. I’m just not familiar with web scraping outside programming.

Selenium is a “driver” that controls browsers, you would need some type of software to actually drive it. If you have programming experience it’s pretty easy to get going.

Personally, I use it in Ruby on Rails development for unit testing but I also use it to log in to websites and perform some actions on behalf of a user (where the websites don’t offer an API).

I don’t have experience with the others, but thought my comment may or may not be useful.

looks at community I hope so?

The only Windows people I know are the Java developers at my workplace and it shows. Containerization and Linux/UNIX conventions are definitely not followed and everything’s a clusterfuck with those guys.

For me, having it locked down is the selling point. I used to be big into jailbreaking but for 90% of users it’s better this way.

For development work though obviously having it not so locked down is kind of necessary. Luckily I don’t write apps from iOS or tvOS so it’s a nonissue for me.

Orion is a pretty sick browser letting you run Chrome and Firefox extensions in a WebKit browser. It looks/feels very close to Safari, and though having those extensions sounds super glitchy it’s actually very well-polished.

Well I MITM myself quite often to confirm it. I’m also smashing together hundreds of blocklists, and I always check the network tab of my browser’s developer tools and very rarely see anything coming from third-party domains.

Sure, sometimes assets are on the actual domain I’m visiting (or its CDN) but most of the time, even tracking scripts there are broken because they still call the blocked scripts.

By the way, it’s hilarious that everyone wants to fight so hard about this yet when someone says “use an adblocker” nobody says anything as if it’s the end-all solution.

I didn’t say “I have a bulletproof, surefire way to fix this.” I said “use network-based blocking.” However effective that is is up to the person implementing it; you have no idea how effective my setup is because you don’t have access to its configuration.

When does that become relevant? I mainly develop web applications so I’ve never directly worked with WebGL.

They’re not hard to circumvent, sure but then why am I so effectively blocking almost everything not tied to the “real” first-party domains?

Proxy? Is it that hard to figure out how to bundle and serve assets from the same domain? 😂

I’m a broken record: block Google (or whomever) with network-based blocking (IP and/or DNS), these guys have third-party tracking in virtually every website and app.

This is the correct answer. Facebook has third-party scripts all over the internet. I wish people would understand this — just because you’re not a Facebook user doesn’t mean Facebook (or anyone else) doesn’t track you.

I’m not sure about Facebook but tons of trackers are in apps too so the typical “use an adblocker” grumble isn’t even accurate either.
