• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ethical alternatives to Spotify⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  IME it’s because of the playlist sharing and the ability to collaboratively queue music (a ‘jam’). AFAIK none of the other streaming providers have that. They may be fine for single users, but (for example) you can’t put up bandcamp on a dorm smart tv and have people queue up the music they want to listen too.

  That’s what gives spotify an edge over everything else, the social aspect of it’s platform. OFC I only know that bandcamp and tidal don’t have those functions, not sure about the other ones.

  Honestly sounds like you have buyers remorse. Most modern cars in tha last 8 years or so come with some level of assisted driving but it’s not really part of the marketing, it’s just expected to be included.

  I would also regret buying a new car that locked away built-in technology behind a pay wall.

  I hope they have a really good reason to throw in the crazy OP assassin into the story. Although I do appreciate the nods to Ichi the Killer, it just comes off as a ham-fisted attempt to add more drama and suspense. I was really enjoying the series up to episode 8 where they just decided to add in some all to real political dumb-assery.

  I think you’re missing some key points.

  1. Any file hosting service, no matter what, will have to deal with CSAM as long as people are able to upload to it. No matter what. This is an inescapable fact of hosting and the internet in general.

  2. Because CSAM is so ubiquitous and constant, one can only do so much to moderate any services, whether they’re a large corporation are someone with a server in their closet. All of the larger platforms like ‘meta’, google, etc., mostly outsource that moderation to workers in developing countries so they don’t have to also provide mental health counselling, but that’s another story.

  3. The reason they own their own hardware is because the hosting services can and will disable your account and take down your servers if there’s even a whiff of CSAM. Since it’s a constant threat, it’s better to own your own hardware and host everything from your closet so you don’t have to eat the downtime and wait for some poor bastard in Nigeria to look through your logs and reinstate your account (not sure how that works exactly though).
