Usually those all need to be in the same folder, and you launch unrar with the file with no (if such one exists) or the lowest number (0 of 1) only.

What’s in all those folders?

… Which means that businesses are making ‘too much’ money on top to sink into such endeavors, no?

For the vendor (non-)consent thing - Consent-O-Matic provides an appropriate framework.

(Whether such a side would even care about the preference/consent is another matter entirely - I’d suggest a throwaway browser identity and cookie auto delete for a start, anyway.)

Creating rules has a bit of a learning curve the first three or seven times, but I find that more interesting to do than go through a hostile/dark pattern cookie dialog or such the third time.

Hm, maybe the appropriate functionality from CoM could be re-wrapped as a TamperMonkey module…

Web automation for the masses 😱

12ft.io and/or archive.is/archive.today/… are worth trying in such cases (assuming you already have the latest version of the current ByPass addon, see the other comment).

Regarding cookie pop-ups, there’s a little known gem: https://consentomatic.au.dk/

Could also be the exact opposite (experienced this with consumer grade electronics based on microcontrollers often enough):

Because of the large capacitors, voltage from the power brick kinda “ramps up” when it is plugged into the wall. The device/its MCU/most specifically its clock circuit however prefers a hard edge of power being turned on, to reliably trigger its power on reset circuit/oscillator.

You can think of it similar to a pendulum/newton’s cradle/metronome - they also prefer one decisive push to get going reliably.

Unplugging the brick for a longer time is still worth a try, but it could also be this.

The ruling has been updated to say that accepting cannot be more convenient/streamlined/less clicks than rejecting, though.

Getting that enforced is another matter altogether, however.

There’s CookieAutoDelete (or anonymous tabs, containers, …) for the other side of this issue.

I “tried” to use XMPP/Jabber in its heyday, but in my experience (& memory) it never got to the point to have a “critical mass” of community (I felt to be part of / want to be part of).

Fediverse/Lemmy has this critical mass at least since some weeks now - unless too many of those users decide to leave for another place, I’m happy here no matter what other things get hyped in a given week.

Back in Jabber’s day, I would have liked to see it develop some communities as they did - and still do! - exist on IRC, but that simply never happened (with one I would both be interested in and could find).

(sorry about the multi posting, Jerboa was giving me network errors and it seemed like the comment hadn’t gone through.)

You might also want to look into Zstandard - it gives much better ratios in orders of magnitude quicker time on modern hardware.

A bit down on the page you can find versions of the 7-zip graphical archive manager extended with this Zstandard algorithm.

Like normal 7-zip/traditional zip/rar/gzip/bz2/…, Zstandard is completely (guaranteed) lossless.

(I don’t really know about ECM at all, so I won’t speak on that aspect.)

Thinking like a good little git(hub) user, the term “Forked Community on Lemmy” came to mind all too easily.

Gender alignment? Gender alignment vs biological/birth sex?

I have a related one - I’m kinda continously on the lookout for a refreshing (evening) drink especially during hot weather.

So far, I haven’t found one that doesn’t contain at least one of:

• (added) sugar
• caffeine
• alcohol

Or a combination of those.

On the other end of that scale, I do quite like White Russians. The Dude says hi.
