  Same in UK for Sky. You have to be a Sky TV customer (paying) to use the Android or iOS Sky Go app and it still makes you watch adverts without skipping.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube ads have ruined the good, old-fashioned Rick Roll.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t mind adverts for free services but YouTube take the piss now.

  And Amazon. Paying Prime members still have to watch ads.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there any truth to this?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Seen very little of it on either Bluesky or Mastodon to be honest. Maybe it’s the type of searches or activities followed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Solar modules now selling for less than €0.06/W in Europe⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Good news perhaps but I’m sure I won’t see any benefit in Scotland, still thousands to add solar panels.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Palworld Developer Reveals The Pokémon Patents Nintendo Claims It's Violating⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Fuck Nintendo. They get a pass so often from people when they really shouldn’t.

  I feel personally attacked by the Boimsters beard this season.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨T-Mobile, AT&T oppose unlocking rule, claim locked phones are good for users⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Fuck the lot of them. Shop around for the best deal that doesn’t try to screw you over.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dell Sales team told to return to office 5 days a week⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s creeping back in the UK here too. I think hybrid works best for me, can collaborate 2 or 3 times a week and stay at home and be more productive to actually DO the work.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 | First Look Gameplay⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Original idea, lush visuals, decent looking animations/acting. This is on my watch list for sure.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Someone finally figured out a good use for NFTs: Peter Molyneux is using 'land' sales from his failed blockchain game to fund the development of his new project⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I had thought there was a Fable coming out soon, there was an ad at the last Gamescom before this one. Unless Molyneux isn’t involved in it?

  It’s basically the gigachad if the factory world.

  Yup they reinvested a lot of the oil money back into their country and population whereas we in the UK (Scotland) had it squandered.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Proton is transitioning towards a non-profit structure | Proton⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly I’ve not experienced any on either of them!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Proton is transitioning towards a non-profit structure | Proton⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Switched from gmail to Protonmail and Outlook to Tuta.io and love it! Companies that put privacy and the individual first.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Must be nice for real artists⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  AI is fun to play around with if you are like me with zero artistic talent but currently is no comparison with a real talented artist.

  I can’t even draw a bit of spaghetti never mind a hand!

  Have barely touched Twitter since Muskification ruined it.

  Threads is _okay_but Mastodon would be brill with more interaction.
