I would totally pay for YouTube premium if they weren’t so good about making me watch my favorite gun-tubers on other platforms. Every channel has this endless and constantly changing list of words they can’t say for fear of being demonetized.

Fuck them indeed.

Break up the monopoly and I won’t need to block your ads because I’ll be able to go elsewhere.

How do you define young?

I’m definitely too old but I loved Tarkov before cheaters ruined it.

I know some early-20’s folks who grew up on DayZ.

Both games very hard to not suck at.

Ugh I don’t know which is worse. Next timeline, portal gun.

Tool cabinets are a marvelous thing. I have a little thing squirreled away in a drawer of other tools, just the top of a box that a screen protector came in, that is just full of tiny specialized precision tools that I very seldom need.

"I would love to live here"photo looks like a typical suburb - with a population density that is at a level where everyone still needs to own a car. I’m thinking European cities like Bern. Most people don’t need one to get to work but basically every household still needs one for non-work use.

Car-free population density should be more like minor Japanese cities (like Kanazawa, etc), or old towns in Europe (downtown Bordeaux).

I know we only ever see a handful of rooms, that’s fine, but with over 100 crew they always all have personal quarters that are probably the square footage of 3/4’ish containers.

150m in diameter is one way to think about it. But then it’s also 8 containers long, or 25 containers circumference at the largest point down to no more than a few in circumference at the bridge.

You know, that seems tiny, it’s like there’s no volume left for the hardware that needs to be between every room and all over the hull

You are correct. YouTube is tricky for several reasons, and hard to prosecute because the true monopoly is discovery (because everyone uses it).

Content can be consumed anywhere, you can follow some niche creator on Patreon, but YouTube is realistically the only place you’ll discover them.

YouTube chooses to demonetize and outright ban perfectly legal and normal content that happens to disagree with their politics. On it’s face this is okay, they’re a private company after all, but the insidious thing is that entire subjects may as will not exist for you know because YouTube bans them.

100%. Alphabet’s YouTube business needs to be next.

Woah, only USD 12 for a GENUINE fake cracked copy someone first downloaded from a torrent?

Not the Logitech I became a fan of, glad they updated the name to Logi reflecting they’re half the company they used to be.

I miss the old Logitech software and Logitech Gaming Software, from like 10 years ago.

Now I can’t even launch the driver software to adjust my webcam or mouse behavior from my work computer because of legitimate Internet security settings preventing random background apps from exfilteating data, which is exactly what it’s trying to do.

Customer support of course blames the user for their app that will never finish loading until it talks to the mother ship.

As a privately held business, we have no clue. Only the directors of the company and the board truly know what impact was made, and even then I would not be typing this on this app were it not for Reddit’s behaviors. The effect may not even be immediate - it’s now clear to many many people what value lies in developing an alternative that’s for everyone instead of something niche for those right wing groups censored/banned by Reddit.

People keep saying this. They’ve been saying this for decades. Other countries keep having bigger problems first, I think it’s just because you see all of America’s dirty laundry while virtually all other countries governments take more steps to control the flow of information.
