Maybe do a basic search before asking questions.

What have auto-generated/AI caption contents to do with the general format captions???
YT has auto-generated captions now for years, so why would they remove an unsupported, internal format because of that?
- Comment on YouTube disabled SRV3 subtitle uploads and started deleting them on existing videos 2 weeks ago:
While I’m not quite sure about the exact reasons for the removal, here are some probable guesses:
- it’s a bug
- the unsupported, internal format - that allows for pretty much everything - is in some way exploitable
- It’s getting replaced by something better/standardized as the current solution doesn’t seem to always work properly in YT’s apps

> Use UNSUPPORTED subtitle format instead of one of the other 10 supported ones
> Fast forward some time
> YT disables and removes the UNSUPPORTED format

- Comment on YSK a US passport card costs $30 and is definitive proof of citizenship. It fits in your wallet like a credit card. 3 weeks ago:
Well I didn’t know about that before, so thank you for the information :)
Your system sounds a bit complex when compared to the German one. For comparison here in Germany we basically have 3 important documents:
- The ID card that you get as a citizen. You can use it inside the country for basically all govermental buisness or to travel freely in the EU/Schengen area.
- The more powerful (and expensive) passport that you usually only needed when travelling abroad
- Drivers license - that you can also get when you’re not a citizen
So if you’re an immigrant/not a citizen you basically can’t have an ID card or passport and get a temporary residence card instead.

Just FYI - outside of the US bubble - an identity card is standard in most countries: en.wikipedia.org/…/List_of_national_identity_card…

When you’re getting notifications/newsletters from legitimate platforms like e.g. Amazon or GitHub it’s smarter to unsubscribe from these specific mails. Otherwise you will be screwed when some important mail somehow ends up in the spam folder.

but I’m absolutely drowning in unread emails, around 4,000
WTF are you doing with your e-mail address that you get these amounts of mails. These are more mails than I got in the last decade.
At first maybe try to unsubscribe whatever you subscribed and stop putting your address into random services. Use a temporary mail for stuff like that.
Also mail filters can help with sorting mails from certain senders into folders. Bascially every provider has them and if not programs like Thunderbird have these built in on the client side.
Most are those annoying notifications like “Your security code is xxx,” “Your parcel has shipped,” and requests to rate my experience.
Uhm simply delete them when you e.g. inputted the code or got your parcel? Or change the settings that you no longer get them?
So, I’m on the hunt for an email provider that has solid SPAM filters…
Under your circumstances no provider in the world can do that, because nobody can determine if your “Your security code is xxx” mail is spam or legitimate…

I did basically the same a few months ago, works really well in combination with DDNS.
Just make sure to keep WireGuard up to date from time to time to get rid of any potential vulnerabilities :)

At first: Stop posting Tomshardware! They just bulk repost ad-enriched low quality clickbait content without validating anything (cough 9700X3D). Just post the original video.
As the video creator said in it’s disclaimer, the test is probably not accurate:
- I’m having serious doubts about the test setup. The laptops are all on a carpet directly facing a wall. There is 0% that their is proper air circulation and this will likely effect heat dissipation.
- Some tests (e.g. Video editing, Battery life) are extremly hardware dependent and shouldn’t be used in a OS comparison.

It resolves well but punnycode is disabled in some browsers or profiles for security enhanced profiles, so that you can easier detect punnycode domains that try to fake other domains.
