  • Just to freak you out, I’ve played around with the EC on my Framework, and it really wouldn’t be hard for someone to create a modified firmware with a key logger built in or something. But AFAIK the EC doesn’t have internet access or a way to screw with the OS, so it would be mildly pointless without accompanying software.

    Modifying the BIOS seems slightly more difficult, although I think some Frameworks are still vulnerable to LogoFAIL.

    I wouldn’t worry about extra chips, they’d either be quite noticeable that they shouldn’t be there, or too expensive to be wasted on a stranger.

    So the chances are, unless you’ve got some proper enemies, it’s fine. I’d definitely update the BIOS (which also updates the EC), and fresh install Windows/Linux, but that’s as far as I’d go.

    Satellite imagery seems cheaper than you might think though. I’ve had SkyFi in my favourites for a while after they sponsored a YouTube video, and they seem to start at $8 per km2 for a new photo or $2.50 for a previously taken one.

    Oh cool, I believe only 4bit colours are possible, you can use this table from Wikipedia and the escape sequence \e[<FG>m replacing<FG> with your chosen foreground colour. Also \e[0m to reset everything.

    funny how we use the same font XD

    Haha yeah! I noticed that too!

    I think I just used regex look aheads and look behinds to insert the colours easily.

    Edit: Oh you can change that actual TTY font to a bigger one, if the text is too small too.



  • For ergonomics, the plugin should be able to spot cuts in the video so you can easily select the correct frames.

    This shouldn’t even be too hard, I doubt YouTube is completely rerendering every video with ads, they’d just insert the ad in before an I frame in the video. So each ad will start with an I frame, and the video will resume on an I frame, meaning just let the user select all the I frames, no fancy cut detection algorithm is needed.

    I have no idea how to do this from JS though.

    Also I mean video I frames, not HTML iframes.
