I have the an extension installed for Firefox and I see the green dot under my extension menu on every website visit and everytime I reload a website indicating that it asks for permission to read data on that website again. When I hover over it it tells me that I can allow it for this visit and the cog wheel menu has the option "only when clicked" for "extension can read and write data" ticked. Clicking on that option does nothing.

How do I give the permission permanently? It's annoying to have to click that everytime.

I recently discovered SmartTube Next for Android TV to get an ad free experience and integrated Sponsorblock on my Nvidia Shield TV.

I found NewPipe for my phone but I don't see a way to connect my YouTube account to it and I guess I need to import my subs manually every time I change something.

So I'm wondering if there is an alternative YouTube app that is blocking ads (and ideally integrates Sponsorblock) for my smartphone and has the ability to connect my YouTube account like SmartTube Next does?

I remember that it was possible at one point but now I don't seem to be able to find the option to do so.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

And I don't mean cancelling the membership.

Solution: At some point Patreon turned all "Followers" (there used to be an option under the creator name in the 3 dots menu to "follow" someone) into "Free Tier Memberships". On the website you can't see these "Free Tier Memberships" under Settings->Memberships. You have to go to each creator you have in your list on the left, go to the membership tab and click on the pencil icon to edit your membership, where you can cancel it.

In the app this whole thing is much easier as you get to see all your memberships including the "Free Tier Memberships" under the memberships point when clicking on your profile. From there you can click on every creator, then on the 3 dots menu in the top right, select "Your membership" and there you can cancel the membership.

I have no idea why this has to be so convoluted.

Edit: Oh and if the creator doesn't exist anymore you need to block and unblock them again to remove them from your list because you can't cancel a membership of a creator that doesn't exist anymore.

Is there a way to disable one speaker when I have stereo speakers on my Android phone? It's a Pixel 7 for reference.

I'm doing voice training and it would be helpful if I could play white noise from just one speaker instead of both.

I noticed that my mouse wheel when scrolling up would sometimes scroll down instead (and vice versa). I figured it's probably because there is some dirt and grime inside the mouse wheel casing that's somehow interfering with the sensor.

How can I clean it without taking the mouse apart? I guess I could fill it with some isopropyl alcohol and wait a bit to shake it out or something but I don't know how well that would work and I don't want to make it worse obviously.

Does anyone have a better idea maybe? It's a Logitech G703 Lightspeed

I have a TrueNAS server at home and thought I could easily connect it to my phone (Pixel 7) as a network drive but was surprised to learn that Android doesn't have a built in feature for that.

iOS/iPadOS does have this to my surprise built in via the 'Files' app.

Or did I just not look hard enough in the Android settings? (I know there are 3rd party apps for this)

What do you use for offsite backup? Since best practice recommends 3 copies on 2 different devices where one device is offsite.

I thought about renting a storage box from Hetzner to use as an offsite backup but I was curious what you are using. And also if there might be some cheaper alternatives to my proposed solution that are equally as easy to setup.

Edit: SOLUTION: I had to use 127.0.0.1 and port 81 for the proxy host that points to the NPM admin page

I'm trying to follow this tutorial from Wolfgang's Channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlcVx-k-02E but I'm using Nginx Proxy Manager (NPM) on TrueNAS Scale.

I managed to get the SSL certificate working (the challenge is successful) but after setting up the proxy host for NPM I'm unable to reach the WebUI of NPM like he does in the video after setting that up.

This is the setting for my proxy host.

But when trying to access the WebUI through the domain name all I get is 504 Gateway Time-out. Does anyone know what I did wrong?

Nginx Proxy Manager is also properly setup to use ports 80/443. So when I access the IP address without any port I get sent to the default site of NPM.

I want to create some filters for my Mastodon account to hide certain content.

For example I want to hide all posts that contain spoilers for a game. I can't just add the keyword "spoiler" or "leak" to the filter because that would hide them for any game obviously. But how do the filters in Mastodon work when I add multiple keywords to one? Do they act as logical AND or OR? So when I add "game name" and "spoiler" as separate keywords to a filter, do I hide every post that contains "game name" or "spoiler" in it, or do I only hide posts that contain both keywords.

The UI in Mastodon doesn't really make this clear tbh.

Edit: And do the filters only apply to non-followed accounts or to all?

A great example of a walkable city in France near Paris.

The town is really beautiful.
