I don’t really understand how that’s YouTube’s fault. They created a good product so people used it and there were no alternatives when it got shit. There’s no lock in. They don’t force you off the platform if you post elsewhere (like twitch did). You can literally post the same video to as many platforms as you want. Sites like Instagram and GitHub have more lock in than YouTube does.

If you block ads everywhere else then it doesn’t really matter. Pi.hole, AdGuard, proton vpn, Firefox will all block ads for you on pretty much every other site on the planet.

I’m not mistaken. Even Patreon doesn’t claim the apple change will cost 60%. https://support.patreon.com/hc/en-us/articles/11111747095181-Creator-fees-overview

And 60% of 160 is almost 40%, nice rounding down there to make your numbers sound better. And what the fuck does that have to do with anything anyways??? 30% of 100 is 30%. I’m saying that the creators shouldn’t have to do anything.

Why does Patreon even have a fucking app!? There’s no need for it at all. This ridiculous rise of companies creating useless apps just so they can harvest your info in addition to the info they’re already harvesting from you just signing up.

Apple is not charging 60% more. That is patreon. How this drivel spreads is beyond me. Apple charges 30%. This has been pretty fucking consistent for a decade. Patreon is telling creators to raise their prices because they (patreon) aren’t going to take the loss, they’re going to force it on their userbase. Patreon could easily just eat the 30% or even 15%, but that would cost them profits so they don’t. And then they claim Apple is costing users a 60% price increase. Fucking ridiculous.

Yeah this is what OP wants. I run an unraid array with two pci expansion cards to add in 8 more drives. They’re more robust than an equivalent USB array (I think?) and allow for much higher speeds.

Yeah we got a place where I can sit outside in the sun and hardly hear anything. But really if you get a single family home anywhere within a few hundred feet of an artery you’re going to be dealing with road noise. So it applies almost in every city in America.

Ha I came here to suggest the nas killer too. I built the nas killer 3 and it’s been running great for years.

I wonder if Colorado has required this because I know when I was looking at apartments about 11 years ago they told us the decibel reduction of the windows and doors in the apartments we looked at that were near highways. And then a few years later in 2016 when we were house shopping they told us the sound reduction for the houses that were near major roads. I’ll have to look it up and see if it’s a law or not.

The article literally doesn’t explain the vulnerability at all.

It really doesn’t. It is pointless to describe forums as social media because then you’re really calling everything on the internet social media. News comment sections, blogs with comment sections, even Amazon product pages which have comment sections! You can even follow sellers on Amazon.

There has to be a line somewhere and it’s definitely on the other side of forums.

We’re talking on a forum. This is not social media. It has none of the hallmarks of social media, like friending people, following their feeds, or being a spot where you post about your lives. Forums have never been and will never be social media.

Just like Facebook Marketplace isn’t social media, just because you can do something on a site doesn’t mean that site belongs to a completely separate category of sites.

Sadly there are dog fighting rings and the little yappy dogs get stolen all the time for bait…

I have a ff plugin or script or something that does it. It’s the only thing that makes shorts bearable and usable

Performance? FF is faster than chrome. What are you talking about.

I do know that Mozilla’s Privacy Preserving Attribution is not something you should worry about. I also know if someone calls it the “enshitification of Firefox” or the work of an “anti-privacy, pro-advertising cabal,” they’re either ignorant or simply looking for rage bait clicks from angry Linux users.

Yup

Probably a Scandinavian country if I had to guess.

Mac comes built in with those shortcuts just by holding command. Command left and right is home and end. Command up and down is page up page down.

And yeah there are definitely some holes? But Karabiner-Elements closes them up better than anything on windows does.

For navigation by keyboard you need to turn off a bunch of the animations and it’s very very snappy. I use Hammerspoon and can jump between apps faster than on Linux and windows.

16gb. It definitely would not be able to do all of that with only 8, but it would still be very capable.

You said browser extension. And how do you think those payments go through? Mozilla isn’t a payment provider. And even payment providers use downstream companies to actually move the money around. So either you trust Mozilla to choose a trusted third party……orrrr you trust a third party extension to choose another trusted third party, and that one is now handling your payment information.

That isn’t what the grinning face with smiling eyes ever looked like on iOS. I have no clue where that article got that. And it’s not what it looked like on other platforms either. They have their emoji confused and so you can’t even trust the survey at that point. Here is the history of the emoji across platforms. https://emojipedia.org/grinning-face-with-smiling-eyes#designs. And I’d say that google’s emoji versions look bad compared to the iOS versions. Samsung’s are horrendous though.

And just for comparison here is the grimacing face history. https://emojipedia.org/grimacing-face#designs
