• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube's new ad strategy is bound to upset users: YouTube Peak Points utilise Gemini to identify moments where users will be most engaged, so advertisers can place ads at the point.⁩ ⁨⁨12⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve met some people who ask why I care so much about not having to see ads. They don’t care if there’s youtube ads every now and then. At this point they have to care.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Usernames using randomized nonsense⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  If I wanted to create bot accounts I would generate believable names

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Interesting logic⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  People who are interested in aliens and UFOs rarely solely make this argument. Often, they’ve encountered or somehow know of these aliens.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK: You can block almost all cookie popups with Ublock Origin.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Countless sites and I’m not keeping track because I visit more than a few sites and not always recurringly. Typically, the page is frozen and I have to disable cookie consent blocker to decline and then be able to use the website. Are you seriously saying you’ve never encountered this?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK: You can block almost all cookie popups with Ublock Origin.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If you don’t click any of the options and simply block the pop-up, it commonly breaks the site. Doesn’t matter what’s ethically right, you have to be practical.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK: Here's a list of browser extensions to un-shittify Youtube⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  DeArrow should be optional because it’s not a strict improvement. Some thumbnails and titles are good and many times at least better than the title someone comes up with to de-clickbait it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In the latest Windows 11 preview build, Microsoft removed the “bypassnro” command, which let users skip signing into a Microsoft Account when installing Windows.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Not how it works. You don’t attempt to guess the hashed password, you guess a password which then is hashed

  It’s a jpeg representation on your screen of a photo of a rock which you probably have observed with your eyes

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The world is only about me⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Just run over it or move it? Would be a bit harder if it was a car (with non-handicapped passenger) which was there

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Samsung CEO Jong-hee Han has died⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Okay, an article from 2021 about a niche kind of spoons. If that is the best example of developments in the spoon industry I fully understand why it gets no attention on e.g. lemmy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Samsung CEO Jong-hee Han has died⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  2021 is not very recent

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'You're a very long arm. You steal things. It's a comedy game,' explains developer of comedy game where you steal things with a very long arm⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I love gaming journalism and their brilliant titles

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Samsung CEO Jong-hee Han has died⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Have there been any interesting newsworthy developments for spoons?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I can't believe he said that⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Just use a regular pea shooter for the same effect but strictly cheaper.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I can't believe he said that⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The freezing effect doesn’t stack, why would you have two columns of frozen pea shooters?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨fair treatment⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Americans will completely unironically call this self defense and say “fuck around and find out”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tools to migrate from Plex to Jellyfin?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You simply expose jellyfin to the internet like you would with any other service. Why did you think it specifically wouldn’t work over the internet for jellyfin?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tools to migrate from Plex to Jellyfin?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The entire point of jellyfin is being able to remotely access media (with an good interface and functionality). What do you mean by remote access?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is Severance the new Lost?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  While the surface level story of severance is annoying since it doesn’t like to give answers (so far), it also criticizes workplace culture and work in general which makes it satisfying to me.

  If you want to consistently block ads, you can’t use a chromium based browser since they don’t support ublock origin

  What browser and adblocker?
