the channel has lost its charm. its just puking out videos, but there is no content. no real hardware tests. only drama and clickbait crap. he has lost the techsavvy part of the viewers on his tech channel with pushing garbage into everyones face.

- Comment on Been seeing a lot of posts about replacing Spotify and such, so I wrote up a guide on how I did just that 1 week ago:
“Replacing TV and movie streaming services is pretty trivial, and typically one of the first projects for any new self-hoster, but music streaming services are a whole different beast.”
both cases you just gather up media files, and you play them. follow me instead for more life hacks.
- Comment on Microsoft Word documents will be saved to the cloud automatically on Windows going forward 2 weeks ago:
this has been goin on for like a year now. i have an offline profile with no onedrive on my machine, and tried the latest office. theres a slider saying autosave, but i was unable to use it. felt kinda weird that there is no autosave feature anymore. turns out autosave has been a cloud save option, and poor excel was not able to savemy private data to the onedrive datafarm. also the new excel is super slow compared to like the 2016 version, which indicates that theres more bloat under the hood.

sometimes the french are right. the brits are indeed cunts.
so seriously, this i brilliantly evil. this is the way that will allow some police state level of oversight for both social media, chats, and even vpn data will be tied to your personal file. this is so dark in every possible way. any site can be labelled porn or harmful at this point. even wikipedia. how dare the young browse the open truth of the internet? and this is already the second phase, mind police.

check the tweet guys. out of the 100 comments there are like 3 complaining. probably the 3 users who use twitter on a pc and can actually see the details.
ill be honest, most people are going to be ok with slop content in the future. you know, your basic coworkers and neighbours, the people who watch the recommended netflix movies, and generated spotify playlists. deezer said nowdays at least 15% of new uploads are ai generated. people only want some noise in the background. just to numb the stress, pain, thoughts…
hell, even one of old friends told me that i have too high standard for movies, for not watching crap. cause “not every movie is suppose to be great”.
