The crime and taboo nature is probably part of the thrill

Funding medical research is “too much communism”???

Ladies and Gentlemen, the human race is cooked.

I’d like to know what Steam has to say on the matter. They are usually one of the more reasonable software companies.

They can have the moral victory. I’m concerned about not giving them my money.

There have (especially lately) been a lot of times when it goes down.

My understanding is that Youtube has been changing the way they present or stream videos. I’m not familiar with the technical aspects, really, but Invidious is actively working on the issues.

For me, when I try to use it, it’s down maybe 10-20% if the time, but occasionally for longer stretches at once. Not a perfect solution, but another tool you can use to avoid Youtube directly

You can try invidious instances like yewtu.be

Invidious is an alternative front end for youtube that allows you to watch videos without ads or other tracking. And it’s self hostable. But the public instances work just fine - I actually have issues with YouTube stalling constantly, I assume because of my ad/script blockers. But going to yewtu.be/watch?v=(youtube video code) allows me to watch in HD with zero ads or interruptions.

Youtube does try to fight it, so it occasionally will break, but just like Ublock, Invidious has talented people on the team fighting back.

There’s also a firefox extension for auto redirect: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/invidious-redirect-2/

I also make a mental note to not buy products that have intrusive ads. There are always alternative brands.

Also, I go out of my way to get all my gas from the one station near me that doesn’t show loud ass video ads everytime I get gas.

Is it?

I feel like people have had toddlers and dog bowls for a long time, and that people in the past have been ableto keep certain things away from water successfully. Perhaps if you have increased opportunities to get the phone wet, you should take extra precautions.

Well, meth will do that to ya

I’ve already read your whole comment. It’s not comparing apples to oranges.

I don’t think that’s true, the faces are different. One is higher than the other, different beards, slightly different head tilt, etc

Lets go back and club to death the first fish that decided to walk on land

Exactly my point - And public help forums should be indexed, and should not be on Discord.

It is not comparing apples to oranges, there are many companies that use Discord as a direct replacement for help forums or product wikis.

Only if he has something to gain from it.

If he gets nothing out of the deal, he has no reason to grant clemency.

Good.

Discord is overused for help forums and wikis, which makes them extremely difficult to search and dependent upon third party software to be maintained. I hope this will force people away from that behaviour and back to good old fashioned messageboards that have been working just fine since at least the 80s

Trump doesn’t do that

So lets go back in time and kill the first monkey that used a stick

Is that where you learn to make banana splits?

What’s wrong with good old fashioned data base backed message forums? There are so many implementations available, I’m sure many are FOSS, and I’m sure there’s managed solutions as well. It’s a mature, tested, rock solid reliable technology that has existed pretty much since the inception of the internet, and can be easily incorporated into other tools and workflows - because there is 40+ years of development work with the concept.

Seriously, why?
