They definitely hit VERY hard. My gf cried in the theatre.

just look at Chinese prices

The prices of chinese EVs are artificially deflated! They heavily subsidize their EV manufacturing sector.

None, they are all too bright!

Not for iOS it wasn’t.

Insulting is right. When I just want to quickly look at a recipe, or how the one guy removes the crank pulley from his Miata I don’t want to have to watch 1 minute worth of ads just to see a still image or 10 seconds of the video. Fuck right off, YouTube!

A pre-roll ad and a banner was obnoxious enough for me to start using ubo on desktop, on mobile I kept using the official app because newpipe is not a very nice user experience.

When they started to play two long pre-roll ads, one mid-roll ad for every couple of minutes of content, and a post-roll ad I switched to NewPipe and Libretube. I felt like the content-to-ad ratio was close to 1 recently. Way worse than it ever was on TV.

Check which version you’re on. If it’s not 0.19.0 you need to update. F-Droid now has the newest version.

Try LibreTube on mobile.

Dude was saying that 8 is good, but people still think of version 5 when talking about PHP. Not recommended to still use in 2023.

Doesn’t that include people who log in once per month to check their messages, scroll down two posts in their feed and log out?

First of all a “military peer” just means a nation that has similar military capabilities/power as oneself. And right now China is the only military peer to NATO, that is just a fact.

Second China is also positioning itself as a military adversary to NATO and its allies in many ways. And that is not the interpretation of “congress”, that is geopolitical reality.

Once the batteries of those things die (and they will die in short order) they are completely useless. Just small black bricks with a hint of gold on the outside.

I think topologists call it a torus.

Pixel 7a and Chrome, but I have Firefox installed with adblock installed and use it when sites get too annoying with ads.

Most of my searches and content consumption is through dedicated apps anyways.

They are not mutually exclusive, tbf.

Sync, I’ve used it for years on reddit and am quite used to it.

Pirates are often associated with tropical waters where parrots live. They probably took them as exotic pets, just like people today.

And: Rule of Cool.

I only pirate because it is more convenient than any alternative.

The best example I experienced was when I tried to watch an apple tv original show with my cousin (who has family access to the service). He wanted to log in to his account on my laptop and needed to verify his dad’s credit card to do so. No problem, but it took a while. After that we still couldn’t watch, because the player didn’t load the video for some reason. Cue my cousin fiddling about trying to fix the issue.

In the meantime I had started to download the first two episodes and copied it on a thumb drive.
