I find the whole thing so ugly even as a youtube plus subscriber. How much possibly you could gain here? isn’t youtube already profitable and being run by one of the world’s richest corporations? just let people watch and educate themselves and whatnot.

But lack of ability does not prevent any of that. Entrepreneurs who want to monetize stuff will find a way to spam and game the system.

As someone whos responsible for docs and public facing material I’d never push text only content these days. There’s just way too much UX value left out with this limitation. Sometimes more is more.

Additionally I’d argue that people who only want text are have advantage in the current system as you can strip and reformat everything on the front end and nobody will ever know or bully you into accepting their system. Just like nobody cared about ad blockers before they were widely adopted.

I heavily disagree with this. Stepping back to “walls of text with hyperlinks” is a bad idea that’ll service no one and will never succeed in any reasonable capacity.

Current web technology is not what caused bad web. The exception would be too powerful js where js should only provide interactivity and extra flavor to the page rather than run a full application which can fingerprint and punish user agents.

Javascript, embeded images and audio are awesome things that can improve content readability a thousand fold. Just look at best docs on the web - all of them use these features to tend their users. Even wikipedia added js flavoring like hover pop ups. Because it works.

Also these days it’s all about rushing content and pandering to the lowest common denominator. Though pop tech channels were always this way. I stumbled on Unbox Therapy lately and it’s so blatant that it almost feels illegal.

Just offer file downloads. I swear the society is regressing technologically speaking (not aiming at you OP)

Yeah I really liked puzzles and only found the timing puzzles annoying on a controller though with mouse and keyboard it was much easier.

I love the movement a lot in the last game and it’s so great to see more of the same focus! I hope it’s just not a reskin though

Way to overnanalyze a random 8 word comment mr Freud

Yes if they start flying into a concert in Canada and raping and murdering everyone while also having 80% support in their country then yes, we should objectively get rid of them. These are incredibly dangerous and unethical people to the point where they forfeit their right to exist in our society.

I really don’t get the confusion here. Some people are so bad we can safely get rid of them. The bar is very high but for some reason these fuckers keep reaching it.

Yeah, as if big deal international crime syndicate couldn’t figure out how to hide electricity bills. Either way there’s probably an easier way to find these dudes than to sacrifice our privacy.

creating 7 new radicals for every non-militant we kill on the way to taking out one specific person.

Nah I’m not convinced by this argument tbh

You’ll never have me sympathize with religious terrorists no matter what. They have forfeited their lives and I’m happy to see them succeed in that regard be it foreign soil, tunnels, moon or mars.

It’s incredible how little people spend on free software :(

I used to have a dream of developing free software and launched a couple of big projects (thousands of github stars, millions of downloads) and no one fucking pays for anything no matter how easy you make it and how critical your software is to them.

To give some perspective - some Youtubers earn same amount annually from Patreon than both Gnome and KDE yearly budgets combined (which is ~3M usd).

I realized that the only way to fund something is to make people pay either through early releases, insider programs or something that forces the credit card form on them. That’s the only way.

Has Musk ever proceeded with one of his lawsuits till the end? Seems like he just sues people, gets the headlines and then drops out lol

Can’t wait for headlines of another shitty dude being wiped off the earth. Come on Israel, do your thing :)

It’s this perverted need to scream and have someone justify your scream through likes. Incredibly toxic but for some reason we regard that as normal.

Whatever dude not playing these stupid games. You know exactly what I meant. Go away 👋

What’s even point of your argument? That a detective can figure out who used AI? Yes detectives can figure out most stuff. This is completely irrelevant to the topic at hand my dude.

The “can” is irrelevant here. Checking tool has to be reliable to be useful. What’s the use of having a checker that maybe detects something sometimes somewhat successfully?

No that’s in no way reliable way of catching anyone and I hope people smarten up and avoid this snake oil entirely. I’m borderline jealous how these “ai catchers” are making so much money from straight up snake oil.
