Worth a watch, a five-part documentary television series called Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV (2024)
It details the toxic behind-the-scenes world of children’s television programs from the 1990s to the 2000s, with a special focus on Dan Schneider’s tenure as a producer and showrunner at Nickelodeon.
- Comment on [🇨🇭|Switzerland] Google, X/Twitter and Other Online Services are Set to Pay Copyright Fees for Displaying Short Extracts From Newspaper Articles. 2 days ago:
Absolutely correct, Canadian Newspaper pulled the same thing, but they also blocked social media sites from sharing or posting links to their sites, blaming the links were “summarized”. Their argument was the links were being summarized and users were not visiting the Newspapers website.
So social media sites blocked all links of Canadian news, then Newspapers cried foul after a drop in traffic.
Funny enough when you see a summarized link, such as ones that show a picture and maybe a sentence, the content shown in that summary is directly controlled by the site being linked.

That happened in Canada as well a while back.
Funny story though, web extracts that become visible when you share a link for example on a social media platform or even through a text message are actually “controlled” by the source website.
This means the short summary that can range from a sentence to a few sentences is actually completely in the hands of the source website and is not actually “scrapped” when the link is shared.

- Comment on Mouse pointers with drop shadows have their visual click zones and actual ones misaligned. 1 month ago:
Best way I could come up representing what i believe OP may have been talking about.
Think of the top small floating line as the mouse pointer, and the black line at the bottom as the screen where the “content” is. The shadow of the floating pointer is what actually interacts with the screen.
- Comment on Mouse pointers with drop shadows have their visual click zones and actual ones misaligned. 1 month ago:
Good take, I vote the mouse crusor on screen is just thick.
Thus there is no “misalignment” at the pointer tip and the screen or shadow “below” the mouse crusor.

- Comment on Need suggestions for setting up backups between a local and remote server 1 month ago:
No worries, also just to let you know. I have a TrueNAS and a unraid server.
The TrueNAS server has a Unraid samba share mounted. Within TrueNAS you setup a pull task where it copies files from your remote system to keep the directory in sync. Any changes on my unraid samba share are backed up to my TrueNAS share on a predetermined schedule.
You might want to look into the pull task on your TrueNAS which will be a lot easier then trying to push files from your OpenMediavault.
