My question is, if you're using ublock origin you must have some desire for privacy — so why in the world do you actively want to allow Youtube to track your viewing habits? SMDH.
You said it yourself — you're new to self hosting, and CasaOS fits what you want to host. As a starting point for getting rid of hosted services, go with that for a start.
Sure, you won't immediately be getting your hands dirty mucking about with dockers and stuff, but you will have your working home server. For learning and experimentation, I second @Scipitie@lemmy.dbzer0.com's plan B — use another machine to test building the same setup on a base Linux system.
If you're like me you probably have an old laptop lying around that wouldn't be great as an always up, day to day server, but as a testing environment to mess around with docker containers it should be fine?
I dunno, over the course what, six months? A year? And since there's been an influx of Twitter users they're probably frantically liking every old follow/er they see to recreate their network.
Also, on Bluesky likes influence the algorithm more than it would on the fediverse, so who can blame them for gauging the ecosystem?
I use Baïkal on a no-frills webhost. It's been running for years without problems.
That, and she doesn't still wear the Bajoran nose ridge prosthetic...
The Tales of the TARDIS ones? Yeah, I watched them, like, once. I prefer the full length (or even extended) versions, and I don't think the brief, new segments added more than a bit of nostalgia.
I also think they were edited more lightly than the big colourised event versions of Daleks and War games? I guess the difference lies in the cost of colourisation being measurable in minutes of runtime.
Oh, seeing that colourised photo of Wendy Padbury, Patrick Troughton, and Frazer Hines is very cool!
As I just wrote in another comment, it's the runtime I'm worried about. The Daleks was shorter than The war games in their original playing time, and that got mangled in last year's "feature-length" colourisation.
Anyway, I think 200-250 minutes is a perfectly acceptable length for a feature these days? 😛
these original episodes have been meticulously colourised and enhanced with updated visual effects edited into a new, 90-minute feature-length experience
Are you kidding me? Yes, at 10×25 minutes War games is long, even for the period, but it is also a well paced and cohesive story as it is.
You can probably shave 5 mins of each episode to lose the title sequence, credits, and overlapping cliffhangers — but that still leaves more than twice the 1½ hour playing time they edited it down to.
I understand the BBC could only reasonably colourise so many minutes, but why then pick a story that arguably in its most basic form is longer than they can pull off?
Cool. Now use the data to get them all blacklisted on dating sites, that should reestablish some semblance of balance.
Troughton regenerating into Jo Martin is ~~confirmed~~ definitely on the table.
