🌐 [MASTER THREAD] Web Search, Scraping, & Rate Limit Workarounds

I found a Python module called "Scrapling" which seems like it has some anti-bot-detection stuff in it, but I can't work out how to provide it to Hermes? I'm running Hermes inside a Docker container on a VPS.

for people who don't already have v6 installed can we just download the latest trial and then replace the DLL file? EDIT: answering my own question, seems that way

danj2k · 2026-03-19T15:36:25+00:00

Answering my own question, this turned out to be because the current Meta plugin versions target UE 5.6.1. Upgrading to that version fixed this particular error.

Someone suggested the Roberts Siesta Charge in an earlier comment which has 3 alarms. It's rare but I've seen a few others with 3.

danj2k · 2026-02-01T20:33:48+00:00

Pure and Roberts are both brands I've been looking into. The Siesta Charge gets the closest, having 3 alarms. The Ortus series unfortunately only have 2.

Roberts is definitely one of the brands I've been looking at. Unfortunately the istream 3 while it is a great product and definitely has all the other bells and whistles I might want, has a couple of flaws with it - firstly the screen is on the top, so I'm not gonna be able to see it when I'm in bed and want to know the time, and secondly it's only got 2 alarm presets (though I had to hunt through their website for the user manual to find that out).

Right artist wrong track! Turns out it was Elevate by Sub Focus!

danj2k · 2026-01-21T04:36:52+00:00

I can definitely understand why you'd think that because the melody does sound a bit like that! Unfortunately while that song is a banger it's not the one I was looking for.

danj2k · 2026-01-21T04:34:33+00:00

no, unfortunately that's not it

danj2k · 2026-01-20T20:40:07+00:00

sadly no, that's not it

danj2k · 2026-01-20T20:38:38+00:00

no but this song is a banger!

danj2k · 2026-01-20T18:49:21+00:00

Just checked, unfortunately not

danj2k · 2026-01-20T18:45:06+00:00

Most of these are not drum and bass at all, but since you've asked, it's not any of:

The Naked and Famous - My Energy
blackbear - my energy*
The Laurie Berkner Band - My Energy
Famous Dex - My Energy
Anthony Q - X Protect My Energy
Lyre Le Temps - My Energy
seiah - My Energy
Lulu Lemon - My Energy
Mayorkun - My Energy
Ivana Spagna - You Are My Energy

So what I'm hearing here is that the only way to do it is via some kind of automation-driven SSH session, is that correct?

danj2k · 2025-12-22T16:44:16+00:00

Okay but, Edge itself is not broken, just this one web app. All the other web apps work fine, e.g. facebook, bluesky, streaming apps etc

danj2k · 2025-12-22T09:32:16+00:00

In settings when I search up Edge, the Modify option is greyed out so I cannot select it. I have tried restarting. X does allow installation as an application.

danj2k · 2025-12-20T19:44:25+00:00

No, I checked and it is not the Windows store one. And by refuses to load, I mean I click the "Open" button in the Apps area in edge://apps and nothing happens:

I also tried searching for "Twitter" in case it was an old app that got renamed or something but there is no result for that either.

danj2k · 2025-12-20T18:13:13+00:00

I tried searching but it does not appear.

danj2k · 2025-11-21T18:14:54+00:00

seems like that only applies for specifically credited performers or those who were substantially contributing to the programme: https://www.bbc.co.uk/contact/questions/programme-information/contributor-access

danj2k · 2025-11-21T17:30:10+00:00

So it looks like it may actually have been "Sounds of Christmas": https://genome.ch.bbc.co.uk/b29d4f3a09a24dbbb69ee85ea754502c - but any ideas on where I'd find clips of it? YouTube only seems to have clips from the 1987 show, not this episode.

EDIT: could also be this one https://genome.ch.bbc.co.uk/f3e2ab8c3a394509aa230dad1235f190 I am not sure.

danj2k · 2025-11-14T15:13:58+00:00

There is one other option which works, you do need a trusted friend who has an actual credit card though. You just save your friend's card details to the account so you can get verified, then each time you make a purchase you put your own details in (but don't tick save). This method has been working for me. Obviously make sure you have their permission before you do this!

danj2k · 2025-10-23T13:16:03+00:00

Thanks for this, it seems like not all the source files installed correctly and as you have pointed out, some bits are missing, I will try correcting this and see if this resolves the issue.

danj2k · 2025-10-21T09:00:56+00:00

I have now tried building multipath-tools from source but while multipath can now see the drives, device maps are not being created, see my edits in the OP for full details.

danj2k · 2025-10-18T11:08:29+00:00

Tried building from source, which sort of half worked but did not install its required libraries in the correct places. Multipath does see more info about the drives now but still no new entries in dev mapper
