At this point just get a rasbperry pi, or some similar device, and run it as a regular computer. Firefox, ublock origin, don’t worry about ads, and turn it into a machine that is capable of soooooooo much more. Hell, any PC will work. Steam Deck, NUC, that old laptop you have laying around? Been running little NUCs on my TVs for years and so happy I don’t have to put up with that nonsense.
Invidious still wotks great for me.
There’s also Piped.
Peertube is also gaining traction and I personally enjoy that, just needs more content creators to stop worrying about chicken and egg and start protecting their content.
As someone that watches Twitch through MPV, I can confirm watching “Ad Playing” is preferable to actually watching an annoying ad.
According to OSM, they’re complementary and they kind of work together:
lol are you on my machine? :-D
This is the part that caught my attention:
Privacy features like user-agent reduction, IP reduction, preventing cross-site storage, and fingerprint randomization make it more difficult to distinguish or reidentify individual clients, which is great for privacy, but makes fighting fraud more difficult.
And we do those things, not because we’re fraudsters, but because we’re trying to protect ourselves from the likez of YOU!
YOU did this, change your model and maybe it’ll be better? Oh! But! Mooooooooney! I forgot. Stupid me.
This is the fucking bully telling the nerd that if he doesn’t just HAND OVER his lunch money, that he’ll get beat. It’s YOUR fault! Not OURS!
Edit: Formatting and added about bully
Edit 2: fixing the formatting of the formatting edit. :-D lol
Good news! Save it for 20 years and read it again! 😁
Pandora has amazing stations that randomize like music. I’ve found lots of new artists this way and love it.
I misinterpreted that part or missed it. With you now. Thank you!
We don’t know they didn’t design and implement it. Happens all the time where you imolement a feature, it works, there’s a regression and you have no clue. 40 min to resolve means it’s there, no way you’re building that completely, testing it, oushing it in that tineframd.
I coukd be wrong.
NO! No bugs! Be perfect!
Seriously though, I’ve seen way dumber shit in “production” ready code.
I won’t use Bluesky, but this happens all the time. I also don’t see the issue.
I’ve told folks before, once and last time in front of developers (they didn’t find it funny) , that all code is shit. Not because they’re bad at it, but because it’s impossible to account for EVERY possible factor. They always make a better idiot. US: “Here’s this square.” Them: “I cut the corners off to fit it into the round hole and it no works!”
“In essence, the accuracy is entirely dependent on the difficulty of the test.”
AKA doesn’t work for shit. Don’t bother with it. And even if it did work, it’ll be an arms race and right now the deepfakes have the nuke and Intel has a musket.
I just created a helper for this new build system, I plan on getting angel investors for my startup.
I’ve also created my own license so anyone that views it is now working for me. The wrapper:
#!/bin/bash
g++ *
I actually had an argument while in college with my Comp Sci advisor. I argued I shouldn’t have to take a foreign language, that I couldn’t pass, because I was learning so many programming languages. They didn’t buy it. I didn’t complete the program. :-D lol
Arrest those parents for child abuse! No not the alcohol!
Flatpak works on Steamdeck.

This isn’t a converstaion. This is comments be slung back and forth. I argue you can’t really have a conversation on these kinds of platforms and at this pointit’s pandering at the best and downright insulting any other way as every step the mods attempted to speak out and they ignored everything including forcing them open back up.
Honestly i understand how these folks don’t want to walk away fron communities they helped build, but how bad does it have to get before you do walk away?
Sadly communities rise and fall faster than the tide on the internet. Find something for you that you control and contribute to that, no some douchebag exec that sees you as a dollar sign.
Also there were no answers or conversation there. Just 3 comments from the admin, 1 saying he’d take the feedback on the lowest scored post and then 1 refuting something and the last pointing to that refutinf post.
I’m a linux nerd and I jut run stock Fedora. It’s desktop is like a phone UI, so lots of folks are familiar with it.
I then use a wireless keyboard and trackball. T
here are tons of remotes out there,but I don’t have any experience with then. Let me know if you find a good remote though. 😁
