shitty cruel systems texas likes to inflict on its citizens, the gun-totingest murican motherfuckers there are. kinda surprised they just bend over and take it
- Comment on Netflix Windows app is set to remove its downloads feature, while introducing ads 5 months ago:
the televisionification (good grief, what?) of the internet is truly one of the most monstrous and monumental failures of creativity the world has ever seen.
Cramming this square peg into that round hole no matter the fucking consequences
nothing matters but money, right? (kys)
- Comment on I Don’t Want To Spend My One Wild And Precious Life Dealing With Google’s AI Search - Aftermath 5 months ago:
Deliberate vandalism of the commons needs to actually be made illegal. This would include the entire field of “search engine optimization” which is simply a misnomer made of weasel words, which actually mean they’ll hide the results you want behind an ever increasing amount of plain old grifter-ass crap sold by the same three old assholes who bought everything and think that means it’s actually theirs, even as they dilute the concept of ownership for the rest of us.

- Comment on ‘My whole library is wiped out’: what it means to own movies and TV in the age of streaming services 6 months ago:
The idea that you could trust a corporation, any corporation, at its word is laughable on its face, and yet the courts have been relying on them to “follow the rules” unsupervised for years. Now capitalism doesn’t make anything that isn’t designed as a piece of shit that falls apart, and everything is a lie that they’re also making money from, from plastics recycling (not real and they make money on the chemicals they sell to the recycling industry) to the content you make that they get paid for and you don’t.
The whole thing needs to go, all of it.

Hey, yo, the music’s not yours m8. you didn’t make it, so who’s being the creep
- Comment on Using Ubuntu may give off a hipster vibes to the average PC user, but within the Linux community its has the opposite effect. 6 months ago:
m8 linux is not for the sort of person who gets panicked about options in the first place, there’s an alarming disconnect in this trend towards pretending it’s just linux’s reputation for complexity that puts people off. There are people in this very thread who don’t even recognize that apple is fascist hipster bullshit and even less who understand why. What’s more, I once heard a grown woman argue she shouldn’t have a different opinion than her parents because if it was good enough for them it should be good enough for her. People are fucking monkeys, mate. If linux ever hits 10% market share I’ll be amazed. Hell, 5 is a stretch…

The problem is, thinking that utopia will have money. Silly noobs
- Comment on After announcing increased prices, Spotify to Pay Songwriters About $150 Million Less Next Year 6 months ago:
Spotify could charge ten times their current price - indeed, should have been, for nearly the entire catalogue of western music? even at $100/mo it would have been a steal - and even so, they wouldn’t be paying artists significantly more, or even at a reasonable rate.
The model is the problem. The middleman is the problem. The service itself is the problem. It can never work in a way that pays artists fairly as long as it requires human oversight, administration and intervention.
Get an AI to do it right, though…

These are some decent suggestions, I’ma try this with our old albums. aside from tpb what are good options, sitewise, for this? no links just names pls, if you’d be so kind

high end artists don’t need your money, they’re funded already and corporate productions in the first place.

- Comment on Streaming is cable now | Seventeen years after Netflix and Hulu kicked off a streaming revolution, it’s looking more like cable than ever. 6 months ago:
Oh sure, great idea! Henceforth, actors don’t get paid any more. that’s what the music industry has “figured out”, how to steal all the money and give it to people who had no involvement with actually making the music.
You should be pirating the fucking music not supporting the pricks who stole everything.

Pfft. Then you’ll be complaining about all the dummies that didn’t even understand your progressively more simple prose as you try to explain semi-complex concepts to people with no shared educational background

welp, better get working on the next big internet thing then
hey, did you know there are other “implementations” - basically skins for lemmy, one of which I seem to recall looking more like what you’re asking for. They were sidebarred somewhere, see if you can find those
