How do you think this will go down? Parents calling the ISP with “please unblock porn sites for me”? I see various things why this won’t work. From ISPs not wanting to increase the number of service calls over Apple’s Private WiFi MAC addresses to these kind of customers not even knowing how their devices appear on the router. Nah, completely unfeasible.
Your ISP doesn’t see which device accesses the Internet. They only see their router.
OTOH, most routers already have features to block websites for specific client devices. But good luck putting the onus on the parents to configure that properly.
Because it’s always a few fuckwits ruining it for the rest.
it should be built into your internet contract
This works fine with personal contracts like your mobile. (EE has a porn filter that you can disable in your account.)
But it doesn’t quite work for contracts that usually have multiple users. Like your home Internet. Because a child could connect to your WiFi and access that shmutz.
Don’t tell your friends! They WILL push that button the moment you’re not looking.
If you’re happy with how Apple Password works for you, I can recommend StrongBox. It keeps all data in a KeePass2 database and integrates into Apple’s AutoFill API. That means it feels almost native when using it. No browser plugin needed. (At least not for Safari.) And you can decide how you sync the database file.
I prefer the term “sophisticated text completion”.
Doesn’t get any more secure than a battle-tested web server hosting simple MP3 files and a text file.
Convenience might be a thing, though. I’m in the Apple ecosystem so their Podcasts app shows that feed on all devices and tracks listening progress, etc.
If I didn’t have that, I’m still a lifetime customer with PocketCasts and PocketCasts Web. So, that’s that. But if you don’t have anything similar in place, a self-hosted streaming server might be the best way to go, yes.
Do you need a web player? I’ve got several years of a radio show on my web server and wrote a script that created an RSS feed for them. This way I can open that in any podcast player (even web based ones) to listen to it.
but I didn’t use the word “flower”
Well, hopefully you’ve added an ALT text to the picture for all those visually challenged people out there - which then also helps search engines.
There’s also Marginalia if you’re looking for some rather traditional web search.
I’ve entered the serial number of my Germany-bought model and it said it’s not from the affected batch and safe to use.
Does the paper take into account the energy required to compile the code, the complexity of debugging and thus the required re-compilations after making small changes? Because IMHO that should all be part of the equation.
I’m pretty happy with Downie (and Permute to directly convert media to whatever format I like). So far it downloads everything I throw at it. And you can create custom download handlers (using JavaScript) to make it work (without interaction) with sites that are currently not supported and would spawn the user-interactive downloader.
If you just want to download and don’t care about a nice GUI, yt-dlp probably has similar features.

Instagram’s AI moderation not allowing to send my comments when trying to warn others of a scam or trying to tell them to report scalpers.
it’s rotting peoples critical thinking
@gork is this real?
At least WP is free, Ghost is as “free” until you find out its only useful with the rest of the payed platform. editorjs.io is much better in that sense.
Great, just make sure this never gets near some elevator control logic like in the movies “The Lift” (1983) or “The Shaft” aka. “Down” (2001).
