  So it works by inserting wine and smelly cheese?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google admits it's making YouTube worse for ad block users⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks. I looked it up and read that Google decided according to the latest news they’re not deleting YouTube accounts with video uploads. We’ll see.

  Who’s going to wipe the old videos?

  Movie watching skill issue

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The barbieheimer debate rages⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Skill issue. Just reading the Wikipedia article on the Manhattan Project would have given you most of the knowledge you need. I watched Oppenheimer and Barbie and liked both for different reasons.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨X adds video calling — and lets strangers ring you: Turned on by default, tool lets anyone you follow potentially call you up⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  This would be a good reason to delete my X account

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elon Musk gives X employees one year to replace your bank - ‘You won’t need a bank account... it would blow my mind if we don’t have that rolled out by the end of next year.’⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I still have a Twitter eh I mean X account. Don’t really use it that much, other than following other people. But no way I’m letting one of Elon’s companies handle my finances.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pfizer says it will price Covid treatment Paxlovid at nearly $1,400 for a five-day course, which researchers estimate only costs Pfizer $13 to produce. That's a 10,000%+ markup. Shameful.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Because they think government is inefficient by default, and a commercial business is motivated towards max efficiency to cut costs. Maybe all of this is true, but in capitalism companies also sell for the optimal price based on price elasticity. No competitors + essential live saving product = high prices.

  But then you have to interact with the French 😭

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft Edge could use a win⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I just opened my gmail in Firefox and I don’t see this Chrome notification right now. Maybe it pops up every now and then. I wouldn’t be bothered by it that much, since started using Thunderbird as mail client last month, and the interface is so much better and customizable than gmail ever was. I did use Thunderbird a long time ago, but stopped when I got gmail in 2004. And all this time I thought Thunderbird still had the old classic UI. Apparently it became a bit too messy with all different volunteer contributions and Mozilla didn’t have a project management to stay with a certain direction. In Feb 2023 they announced in this blog post to rebuild Thunderbird from the ground up and invest the resources to support the community again, although with more control. Then a few months ago this big update to 115 was released, which was featured in a computer tech website so I became curious again. One of the best decisions of this year (although I’m still using it to access gmail), together with joining Lemmy of course.
