worldcat lists the institutions with this book https://search.worldcat.org/title/1048005393, you'll probably have to show up in person. You may be able to do an inter-library loan if your local library doesn't have the book, you could get it from a sister library. However, the only public library that lists having the book is the Austin Public library in Austin, Texas.

Right, only one side of the connection needs an open port (and most clients will let that be either seed or leech side)... this is why having an open port on your end is useful if you're downloading, since you can download from seeders that don't have an open port.

If you want the instances to sync, you just need to sync the directory. (I currently use nextcloud sync for this, but in the past I used synching and before that btsync)

If they dont try to modify the files at the same time (with sync delay) there won't be any issues. If they do grow out of sync, you can fix pretty easily with db repair.

Something like that is probably technically possible, but you'd need to do a bunch of work.

Plex Plugins can't provide media sources anymore, so you need to do the trick plex_debrid is doing where you add stub sources to the plex server library and serve the files from a virtual filesystem.

You might be able to re-use the plex_debrid code but use youtube-dl instead of rclone

When the program aired originally, VH1/Viacom would have bought time-limited, media-specific licenses (i.e. you can play my song on cable tv on this program for 5 years if you give me $x dollars flat fee.)

If they wanted to release the thing again on a different medium (say internet streaming, or DVD) they'd need to find who owns the rights (it could have changed if the rights were bought or whole companies were bought or whatever) then they need to pay them all more money, for a DVD they could offer like .25 cents per $15 DVD sale or whatever, but for streaming that's a monthly subscription so the royalties all need to be re-evaluated (for ad-supported)

Anyway, paying lawyers/accountants to sort it all out is an expense in and of itself, (in the like 10s of thousands of dollars range) for like maybe 100s or 1000s of dollars in revenue, and it just doesn't pencil out.

I mean... it's not a network technically. it's a broadcast station (though the stations themselves are networks)

This uses ffmpeg under the hood and muxes the file into a .m4a file without transcoding. Basically keeping whatever compression youtube used for the audio (which is some sort of mpeg4 compatible audio, probably depends a little bit)

This still recompressed, but it's the best you can do using youtube as the source.

• uploader (almost certainly, but theoretically you could skip this step if you encoded your video well) compresses audio
• uploader uploads to youtube
• youtube re-compresses the audio again (almost certainly transcoding into a different codec)

Seriously, you could yeet it at least 300m that way, maybe more since they're less than 90kg.

Sorry if this sounds combative, but I just don't think I'm understanding what's going on, I can't figure out how this could possibly work.

How does that even work though? Like... the exported doc is just a web page, it doesn't have any google watermarks (except the now invisible ones) marking it as a google web page.

If it's hosted on an external domain... it doesn't have the google domain in the URL bar either...

Like how is the scam victim fooled vs a normal web page with the same information... How is a google docs HTML export visually different from a LibreOffice or Microsoft Office HTML export in a way that tricks the scam victim into thinking it's legitimately from Google and therefore laundering the scammers reputation through Google. Like I know scam victims are generally distracted or otherwise not thinking clearly (or just dumb), but how does this work?

Besides the default font basically any Word Processor HTML export looks the same to a layman, it's plain black text on a white background with 1in margins. If scam victims trust plain white backgrounds and simple formatting there's a ton of ways to achieve that effect that bypass Google.

Those aren't HTML exports though? Those are direct links to google docs.

I'm 99% certain that's exactly what it is.

I haven't used Chrome's reading list feature, since I don't use chrome, but they are competing "read it later" product, so should function vaguely similarly.

Unfortunately I think your impression of Pocket is basically correct, it hasn't received any meaningful updates since Mozilla bought it, and is very underwhelming product, it's still baffling for example that Pocket (at least as a browser plugin) uses a different (and generally worse) reading view from the Firefox "reading mode."

That being said I haven't found any "read it later" products I've actually liked using... (I switched to Wallabag after I quit using Pocket, but have used readability, instapaper, and the reading list feature of "The Old Reader"), so I just quit using the product category entirely, my replacement is "send to device" feature of Firefox so I can find articles on one device and send them to another to either view on a bigger screen, or a mobile screen. (I have a desktop, laptop, tablet and a phone... so this is very useful)
