Nope. Just the regular kind.
- Comment on Google has been blocking many tools/IP ranges that try to synchronize with YouTube 1 month ago:
I’m a YouTube creator, part of the partner program, and I also manually upload to TILvids. The videos I make generate about $100-$300 a year through the partner program, so I’m not a professional by any means. It feels like they’re trying to keep creators from leaving by putting up small roadblocks that limit our reach beyond the platform. Given PeerTube’s non-profit model, I see it as a potential future for content sharing. Though there are a few rock stars on YouTube, most of the creators on that platform make little to no money from publishing videos. There are more people like me than Linus Media Group.

- Comment on ISP to Supreme Court: We shouldn’t have to disconnect users accused of piracy 2 months ago:
It’s becoming impossible to monitor. I have 5G Broadband Internet and I share a public IP address with everyone in my area. I look at iknowwhatyoudownload.com and it shows thousands of torrents that my neighbors have pulled downloaded.

- Comment on Sony will cut around 250 jobs from the recordable media business manufacturing hub and will gradually cease production of optical discs, including Blu-ray discs. 3 months ago:
Keep in mind that though this is a blow to the industry, it’s not like optical media is just yet dead. Hell, there are still new releases to DVDs coming out today.
- Comment on Cloudflare is bad. Youre right. 4 months ago:
Their static website hosting is probably the best in the business. We seriously need some competition though.

- Comment on Top post in the conservative subreddit: Being unable to work at a "woke" company 4 months ago:
Knowing r/conservative, Disney was probably talking about hiring someone to play Tina Turner in a biopic, or something like that.

Masterful gambit, Sir.
- Comment on Winamp has announced that it is opening up its source code to enable collaborative development of its legendary player for Windows 5 months ago:
No mention of license in this article. Are they going to be releasing it through a git of some kind?
- Comment on What is the General Consensus of Web3? 5 months ago:
There was this idea that instead of having the web powered by large data companies like Google and Meta you could keep all your information in the blockchain. It was an attempt to “take back control”.
However, most of the proponents kinda forgot that the web is already decentralized and only portions are controlled by Meta and Google.
Then, of course, we had the grifters come in.
The whole thing was built on a misunderstanding of how the web actually works.
- Comment on YouTube's war against third party apps is just as ridiculous as its war on adblockers 5 months ago:
I create content that goes into YouTube. I generate a tiny bit of revenue from that. I have no say into how YouTube treats my viewers. If you watch the ads, awesome, I get some money. If not, I’m just glad you watched the video.
The majority of content on the platform is made up of channels my size and smaller. Most of us are getting paid pennies.
But YouTube doesn’t care about us. They want to appease the larger studios.

Yes. They get squeezed again and again and keep falling for the same grift.

- Comment on Liking an OS isn't a personality trait ❌ 7 months ago:
Your experience here is what I mean. You have used Windows a lot, so you understand how it all works. I don’t.
I struggled to find drivers for obscure hardware under Windows. If there are no modules, no git repo, it can be confusing where to get them. I found a bunch of sketchy looking websites that claimed they had the drivers, but no obvious way to safely install them. I still don’t know the proper way to do it.
I am familiar with Linux, so I know I need to find modules that I can compile against my kernel. 9 times out of 10 it’s effortless for me.
- Comment on Liking an OS isn't a personality trait ❌ 7 months ago:
It’s not that Windows is easier. It’s that you’re more familiar with Windows.
- Comment on [deleted] 7 months ago:
One of the reasons I love Linux is that I can install or uninstall any application I want. I don’t even need a desktop let alone a web browser.
