Mike Müller (Schauspieler/Komiker, nicht verwandt, nicht verschwägert mit Müllermilch-Müllers) hatte nach dem Wahlsieg der AfD in Sachsen-Anhalt eine Botschaft auf X(itter) abgesetzt: "Was ich nicht so verstehe, warum der Kanzler eines achtzig Mio.-Landes wegen einer knappen Million Nazis in einem gescheiterten Gliedstaat zurücktreten soll".

Peter Müller, deutscher Staatsbürger, der offiziell wohl seit zehn Jahren im Kanton ansässig, hat deswegen bei der Züricher Staatsanwaltschaft Strafanzeige erstattet...

Yesterday I wanted to watch a show with 2 different subtitles on simultaneously. I looked it up and found a 6 years old thread saying it was possible with VLC4.

I found VLC 4 on their website, presented as something like a rolling beta release.

The interface is far superior to VLC3, with things I usually add manually that are already there.

I don't get why things that have been available for years aren't pushed to the stable version. Are those still unstable? Abandoned?

I didn't have time to test it much.

From South Essex Wildlife Hospital

When three organisations come together to save a life...

This barn owl has had a very busy few days... Originally found grounded by a member of the public, he was picked up and transferred Henlow Vets Royston for help. After taking an x-ray, their team found he had a nasty break to his wing

Fixing such a break requires a veterinary surgeon skilled on something called orthopaedic surgery (something that's not too common), but getting him from Hertfordshire to Essex wasn't an easy task... Incredibly, volunteers from UK Wildlife Transporters offered to make the 60 mile journey to bring him into our care and, before long, he was on our operating table in the hands of vet, Alda!

Once under our 'wing', Alda was able to carefully realign and secure the fracture using a series of specialised metal pins, leaving just an 'external fixator' visible on the wing (can you spot it in the first photo?). The poor boy is still not 100% out of the woods just yet, but the repair looks great and we're keeping everything crossed that, in three weeks time, that wing will be as good as new.

External fixators are great! You can read more about them when we've covered them before here.

The European Parliament plenary voted on Tuesday to adopt the “Findings and Recommendations of the Special Committee on the European Democracy Shield,” which recognized Taiwan as an important partner in situational awareness.

The resolution said Taiwan regularly conducts large-scale civil defense and resilience exercises to counter China’s increasingly intensified gray-zone operations, according to the foreign ministry. The resolution also suggested that the country's whole-of-society resilience experience can help the EU enhance the overall effectiveness of the European Democracy Shield.

The resolution called on the EU to deepen cooperation with like-minded East Asian partners such as Taiwan, Japan, and South Korea on countering foreign information manipulation and interference (FIMI) and on submarine cable security. It highlighted Taiwan’s expertise in high-tech industries and countering China’s hybrid threats and information manipulation.

I never really followed Macklemore before, and I never listened to him either, but I'm familiar with the chorus to this one, and it's neat. TIL the video features a DeLorean (the car made famous in Back to the Future).

You probably already know why we're featuring Macklemore on the dbzer0 music comm. Macklemore spoke up for Palestine, and Ed Sheeran dropped him from his tour, and Sheeran's other musicians quit in protest.

I get it. Ed Sheeran wants to be all-inclusive, but when one side wants to wipe an entire civilisation out because their skin is brown and they pray differently, there's no right side to that. No one's threatening Israel's interests, it's just Israel killing Palestinians, and I'm sure Palestine is fighting back, but they're fighting to survive, they aren't fighting to erase every Israeli from the world like Israel is doing to them. You can be Jewish, or not, and support the rights of Jews to exist. You can even support Israel's right to be a free and independent nation, and that's all well and good, but you cannot both be a good person in any sense, and support the Israeli genocide of Palestine. It's unjustifiable, it's beyond the pale, and supporting it in the name of inclusion isn't inclusion at all.

So no, I've never been a fan of Macklemore's music. It's not really my thing. But he's been a wonderful human being the last week or so, and an example to all of us, and that's why he's being highlighted here. Because I always want to do better than I did the day before, and I like to highlight those who I feel do the same, or who make music that inspires us to do the same.

I host my own instance of invidious behind a reverse proxy. It's awesome. I use Redirector for Firefox so that when I'm on the interwebs, YouTube videos and embeds redirect automagically to my self-hosted invidious instance. I used the setup instructions in the Invidious-Redirector documentation.

Recently, I was on a new website and the embed didn't redirect. I tried to figure it out, but couldn't. The best I could do was try changing /embed/* to /oembed/* but that didn't work.

So I thought I'd ask here: How would you go about setting up a rule or multiple rules to sort this?

Edit to add: If you go to the new website, make sure you either have AI chatbots blocked in uBO or create a rule ||autonomoustechnology.ai^. Otherwise there is an annoying AI chatbot that pops up that you'll want to block.

Yemen’s Houthis said they attacked “sensitive” sites in the Saudi capital with missiles and drones, hours after flames and a large plume of black smoke were seen rising above Riyadh airport on Saturday.

The Saudi government sent air raid alerts to citizens by phone overnight warning of aerial attacks, marking the first time the government has issued such alerts for Riyadh since fighting with the Iran-backed Houthis escalated in July.

Explosions were heard in Riyadh as firefighters battled to extinguish the flames of a burning fuel tank emblazoned with the logo of the Saudi oil company Aramco near the city’s King Khalid international airport.
