They are suckers because they keep voting for the assholes sending them into the meat grinder.

I don't think so. I can still remember missions and dialog from 3. 5 is just too much stuff. I don't know how to explain it. I never liked the 3 character stuff just removed any and all immersion.

Previous GTA you were playing and living a character. 5 you're running errands for no particular reason.

The literarily made money off our backs by selling our privacy. Using those I'll-gotten gians they pushed out the competition.

They didn't do things "cheaper" they just stole from all of us and now they want more money on top.

Google cornered the video market and killed all competition by mining all of our data and selling it for years.

Now that they are too big to fail they want to turn around and extort us all. The price for premium is NOT reasonable.

This isn't some mom and pop company trying to serve videos. They abused their size and are now abusing it again.

And the fact that there's people like you defending them is a problem. We have to fight the mega corp and the bootlickers in our ranks.

"Violate Terms of Service" 😂 such agressive language for not wanting to watch endless ads for 2 min videos.

Get fucked.

The image doesn't quite work because youtube needs a MASSIVE solution that works, scales, doesn't fuck up their infrastructure and on and on and on.

Meanwhile on the user front, all your doing essentially is just skipping parts of a video, that will always be infinitely cheaper easier to do. Challenging for sure, but the solution can be small.

Even something as stupid as delaying your video start by 1 min, pre buffering then skipping ads. It's brute force and barbaric but the point is that Google can't do shit against that.

My ultimate vision is AI that preloads videos you want and detects ads / sponsor segments and just skips them / cuts them out on your device.

Nope. Cops are bullies and cowards by nature. They love to swing their dicks around unarmed, peaceful protesters.

Any sign of any possible resistance or discomfort and they'll suddenly turn into pillars of restraint and caution.

IE look at all the armed Nazi protests, or uvlade or any other of the myriad of examples.

I honestly wonder how those meetings go. It has to be comical villainous to spend so much time trying to fuck over your customer not allowing them to fix what they purchased from you.

I just don't get it, if an item breaks and I can't at least try to fix it, there is no way I'm purchasing from the same brand again.

So what is the motivation here? The thing that has kept me with companies is good customer service and a generous warranty service.

Denying claims and making it impossible to fix it myself will get you instantly on my ban list.

So what gives? How did we get here?

Immigration is such a fucked up issue almost everywhere. You've got the right blaming everything on brown people and the left claiming all immigrants are just peace loving pacifists looking for a better life.

As with most issues the truth is in the middle and any immigration policy should absolutely demand that any immigrant coming into a country assimilate and fully support our values of equality for all.

You cannot tell me you support equality for all when your religion makes your wife walk 5 steps behind you in a beekeeper suit at 30c weather while you get to strut around in shorts and flip-flops.

Does anyone have any idea where to find the original Punk'd episodes? I was having some nostalgia and it seems like that show was nuked from the internet. Any chance anyone has a copy somewhere somehow?

I'm running a raspberry pi 8GB version, as my plex entertainment center. I also ruin a pihole. The pie has an Ethernet connection.

I have two TV'S, a 2017 Samsung and a 2021 Hisense. Both with Ethernet connections.

My Samsung tv can't stream certain shows at all, they stutter like crazy I'm guessing it has something to do with the encoders? Yesterday I got a message color range not supported whatever the hell that is.

The Hisense TV does better on some shows, but still 4k content is unwatchable, it's constantly buffering.

So, is the problem with the pi? Is it not powerful enough for 4k shows, or some encoding problem or something?

Or is it the TVS, should I buy a Roku box instead, would that solve the streaming problems?

I'm using wefwef and I only see the total number for a post. So +15 or - 12 or whatever.

That's how it is on reddit and I believe it's one of the main reason discussion turned so toxic. Everyone is just looking at the number and deciding if a point is valid.

Seeing a comment with -1000/+900 is a lot different than just seeing - 100.

I believe it fosters toxicity and stifles discussion.
