Isn’t that what’s happening in the EU?

What’s the point of it on phones?

It’s naivety all around. You can’t have a completely open anything. These libertarian-esk principals don’t exist in regular society for good reasons.

Well that’s what I get for not reading the label

Painters tape is great… but it’s blue. Maybe attach white tape to the top of painters tape? Not sure how it’ll look. Right now I just have the cable running at the floor and I’ve forgotten about it

There’s a lot less Maintenance and tinkering involved with consoles, and Im spending a hell of a lot more than $500 every 7 years to maintain a PC capable of playing the latest titles well enough. A lot less cheating in PvP too.

I was thinking they’d use:

Bronze: just the account Silver: “Essential” 3 free games a month Gold: “Extra” game library Platinum: “Premium” game streaming and classics

These are Extra games. Essential has 3 this month: The Callisto Protocol, Farming Simulator 22, Weird West

there have been many posts about YouTube detecting blockers recently and warning users it’s against the ToS. Not sure if they are widespread or not.

Maybe, but they have two major competitors that they need to stay around the cost of.

There are some scripted podcasts with more enthusiastic narration, background music, etc than some audiobooks I’ve listened to. I thought Walter Isaacson‘s recording on his Dell podcast was better than one of his books from a few years back.

Yea, and podcasts usually have better production. I guess ads are that lucrative idk.

I have no idea about the economics of audiobooks personally, I am more of a short form reader, so when I do read a book, I bought it used for a couple bucks off eBay or from a local used book store. I am far from the target market for audiobooks.

Seriously, people need to stop complaining about absolutely everything. It’s so tiring. This is something no one was paying for yesterday. Audible is what? $15 a month for one book?

Yea, the one I see the most is calling something racist when it's in any way excludes white men. It may be a far-right tactic muddying the waters, but often it's just naivety. I fell into that trap early in my life too. Difference was I never stopped learning. The things that seemed bad on the surface became a lot clearly once my curiosity forced me to figure out how and why those things started. Turns out, and I don't want to blow anyone's minds here, just about everything has a backstory and a really good reason for it. Shocker I know. Doesn't mean it all ended up working as intended or anything, and some things are truly nefarious, but ultimately glossing over the history is what leads people to these bad takes.

I think people fetishize the concept of choice far too much, especially when there hasn’t yet been a reason there need to be different instances with different rules.

Depends. There are plenty of being using “racists” wrong, particularly meaning reverse racism or not understanding systemic racism. But it depends on what you’re saying to be called those things.

I keep hearing this, but when is that ever a good thing in real life? Would you rather have one classic car show that you can go to with everyone and every car or have to go to four different ones at four different times with a lot less going on? If anything there should be merged instances where it’s all the same posts and comments. As it is now, no one can keep track of a particular instances rules if we go in and out of them seamlessly as it is.

If you’re being called racist or homophobic by multiple people multiple times…you might be.

Case, cooler, power supply, storage at minimum, dongle/adapters probably too.
