The image doesn’t quite work because youtube needs a MASSIVE solution that works, scales, doesn’t fuck up their infrastructure and on and on and on.

Meanwhile on the user front, all your doing essentially is just skipping parts of a video, that will always be infinitely cheaper easier to do. Challenging for sure, but the solution can be small.

Even something as stupid as delaying your video start by 1 min, pre buffering then skipping ads. It’s brute force and barbaric but the point is that Google can’t do shit against that.

My ultimate vision is AI that preloads videos you want and detects ads / sponsor segments and just skips them / cuts them out on your device.

I honestly wonder how those meetings go. It has to be comical villainous to spend so much time trying to fuck over your customer not allowing them to fix what they purchased from you.

I just don’t get it, if an item breaks and I can’t at least try to fix it, there is no way I’m purchasing from the same brand again.

So what is the motivation here? The thing that has kept me with companies is good customer service and a generous warranty service.

Denying claims and making it impossible to fix it myself will get you instantly on my ban list.

So what gives? How did we get here?

Time to use these powers to clear out the Supreme Court and put in non corrupt assholes.

She would lose worse than Hillary.

Mint is the only version you have a chance of liking if you are coming from windows. I know windows sucks and people low to pump Linux but most distros simply aren’t user friendly.

You were making a good point then went batshit 🤷‍♂️

You need to fully edit your comment and remove the part defending this nonsense.

Nice of you to think the FBI gives a shit investigating corporate malfeasance.

Twitter is a cute name. X just sounds like some perverted shit. Elon is a moron.

A big part of all of this is indoctrination of children. If you didn’t introduce religion to children while they are at a vulnerable state, religion would quickly be relegated to a fringe cult.

The percentage of people that aren’t flooded with this garbage as children that turn to religion once they are adults is miniscule and could easily be ignored.

The problem is that religion is so powerful and ingrained that they are able to sustain bombard children at a steady pace.

A tiny container of “explosive” liquid like that would barely do any damage in the trashcan. Worst case it would injure a few people.

The same explosion at 30,000 in the plane would be catastrophic.

I get TSA is a lot of bullshit, but there is no really good solution for this except some hyper rapid liquid tester.

Which just isn’t worth it dump it out and refill it past the gate.

It is. Their cooling / heating system along with the battery is top notch. Others are catching up though.

And yes in terms of fit and build quality most actual car manufacturers are ahead.

Of course you also have Ford an ICE manufacturer that’s been building cars for centuries and still manages to produce shit with awful QA and constant recalls.

They have a huge head start. And their battery tech is top notch even if the rest of the vehicle is poorly build.

I’d personally never buy one either, for multiple reasons, but most people don’t care/know about the shitty build quality, the shitty ai and the scummy locking features down remotely when you sell the car.

How do you pay it though? With a US credit card?

MOVEMENT NOT DETECTED!! COMMENCING FIRING IN 5…4…

Employee frantically running out of the bathroom towards his PC, Toilet paper dragging from his pants

I WAS TAKING A SHIT!!!

Absolutely. If you have an adversarial relationship with your employees and why would you think they’d ever be loyal or go the extra mile?

I really don’t get employers like that…

You have no idea about cars or the repairs you have to do on them to make such a statement.

It’s not 1990 anymore.

Actually your entire tone makes me wonder if you aren’t the moron all long 🤔

Germany should spend more time on making their cars better instead of the over engineered, over priced garbage they are producing.

I have a pi 4, how would the transfer work? Can you install pios on the n100 and just clone stuff over?

Never. The whole ad craze is there to milk profits on top of the things you already paid for.

What you are suggesting would actually be a more fair system.

Free with ads or paid with no ads.

Asshole corporations want paid and ads.
