I stay away from the kind of content the article refers to however I think there are cases where it's important to highlight the behaviour of those who would prefer you didn't such as recording the bad behaviour of public workers.

Popular 1st Amendment auditor Long Island Audit has highlighted much of this and shown how many police officers lack knowledge of laws they are supposed to be upholding.

Here's a video that went viral[0] and a recent follow up[1] where things went kind of differently i'm assuming because of the exposure in the first.

Works with windows 11 too.

Works with windows 11, I have it on an unsupported gen 6 intel desktop + a newer laptop. This version is a fork of the original thats no longer maintained but they didn't update the readme.

You can do this by deleting the default value (should be 'C:\Windows\System32\Windows.UI.FileExplorer.dll') under the following key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{86ca1aa0-34aa-4e8b-a509-50c905bae2a2}\InProcServer32

though IIRC a tool to escalate privileges is needed to be able to modify the key.

The tool I posted elsewhere in the thread has an option to restore the old context menu but its overkill to create an ISO and do a complete re-install just for that xD.

An alternative is Optimize-Offline[0] which uses deprovisioning to remove packages from a Windows install ISO.

This is a method which mimics Windows' official methods which should prevent things being re-added when updating.

There are also tweaks to remove the TPM requirement and allow Windows 11 to run on older unsupported CPUs.

Edit: To mention there is also an option to bypass the online account requirement.

I recently found an awesome flash decompiler[0] and used it to get around site-locking on some swfs I downloaded years ago.

Some swfs require files from the sites they are hosted on but I downloaded them and modified the swfs to find these files on a local server instead.

So cool being able to modify the source code whereas back in the day I had to rely on hex editing to invert conditionals.

First they came for protests, now they want to tackle encryption.

I don't think they like the ability of people to share unofficial information and organize themselves in huge numbers.[0]

People were sharing anti-propaganda propaganda stickers on telegram too.[1] (2:40 the bus is covered in them, also saw a vid where an entire police car was covered in them.)

For simple Typescript without node:

1. Typescript in VSCode.

2. Simple script to watch a project directory for changes to .ts files that runs...

3. ...'deno cache <file>' to transpile them to JS. Then copy them from the cache directory.

deno also has a bunch of options for formatting, bundling etc.

You can keep your extensions loaded by setting this about:config value to false:

xpinstall.signatures.required

At least I think thats the one. Also extension updating can be disabled globally or on a per extension basis in the addons setting page.

Edit: note that you have to package (zip) the extension. You can't keep an unpacked extension loaded.
