  You have never been to South America.

  Aussie rules football is all that you describe, but on an oval.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube's plan backfires, people are installing better ad blockers⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  If that is true, then how is it possible for software to determine the difference between a commercial and content? They are streamed from a different source. I’m suggesting that YouTube could encode the commercial in the same stream as content, and as far as the player is concerned, there would be no difference.

  Why can’t YouTube just render the video on the fly with the relevant add?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You’ve just spent $400 on a baby monitor. Now you need a subscription | Once upon a time there was a company called Miku who wasn’t making quite enough money...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I had 3 babies and spent $0 on video monitoring. Your baby will be fine. Don’t fall for the advertising drama. Babies have been fine for thousands of years with no electronics.

  An items worth is what someone is willing to pay. It’s kind of the whole point of capitalism. If you don’t like it, don’t buy it.

  Lemmy has become a shit hole. After the reddit API thing, I was full in for the switch. After a couple months, my third party app still works over at Reddit and there are actually enough non dickheads to generate some useful comments.

  When that Relay stops working for free at Reddit I’ll find somewhere else.

  What is LEO? In my world, that is a Law Enforcement Officer but that doesn’t fit here.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨NASA finally admits what everyone already knows: SLS is unaffordable⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I read it and still didn’t see it.

  Lemmy has become a shithole.

  What is SLS?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Report: Potential NYT lawsuit could force OpenAI to wipe ChatGPT and start over⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Bullshit. If I learn engineering from a textbook, or a website, and then go on to design a cool new widget that makes millions, the copyright holder of the textbook or website should get zero dollars from me.

  It should be no different for an AI.

  I tried FF earlier this year. It sucked. Everything just took extra clicks. The password manager was a pain and didn’t interact with my phone apps properly.

  I know the complaints against chrome. When it starts forcing me to watch ads I might try FF again.
