I’ve seen it go down in some cases on VPNs, so it could be a matter of time (or they’ll find a solution again and the back and forth will just continue).

Youtube isn’t just a thing people use to waste time, but a source of educational content. That actually matters, and there isn’t a good alternative to much of it.
That being said, I agree that people could at least drop it (or reduce their usage) if they are just using it as a time waster.
On the open source side of things, I’ll add that gadgetbridge is pretty rapidly making progress with Garmin devices. Might not be enough if you’re deep into the Garmin ecosystem etc, but if you just want something simple and private, it’s a good alternative.
I suggest using the nightly f-droid repo as there’s new updates multiple times per week.
Or they manually create their own typography engine using ed, the standard editor.
Or emacs with org-mode.
The NoDerivatives part is concerning. Is he trying to prevent forks?
His name is Hans and drinking has ruined his life.
Popularity has little to do with quality. And that applies to iMessage as much as WhatsApp, Facebook, or any of the other communication channels that dominate due to network effects and switching costs.
True, but being the only person willing to do something is kind of laudable in it’s own right. Like all of the open source projects relied upon by millions that are sometimes developed primarily by one person in their free time.
This makes for a good headline but it should not stop you from voting.
Nothing should stop you voting. Even if Harris is predicted to have a 30 point margin, you should push for a 40 point margin. Because even if she wins, the fewer Republicans in office, the more policies the Democrats can implement.
Have these people forgotten Reagan already? He pretended to be on the side of unions, then gutted then union movement.
He articulated a feeling that had until then remained unformed: that I was obsessed with achievement in se — not as an end to something meaningful, but to win a social competition.
Vance seems to be a vapid social climber with no real principles of his own. I’m not sure if that’s better or worse than an outright true believer.
No, that’s not how it works. It would be the same as not voting at all, since RFK has no chance of winning.
Vote for Biden if you want to stop Trump.
Systems themselves are all around 5-20W, although the ones with mechanical HDDs obviously add their own idle usage.
Near 100% since Wine isn’t a hardware emulator. But it depends on how well the software is supported, and CAD has historically been a sore point (but it may be better these days).
There aren’t really any good platforms for artists.
There’s bandcamp, but it’s not really a streaming platform per se.
Even Xiaomi are getting rid of the MicroSD slot now (and the headphone jack). At least onboard storage has been starting to increase again, although it’s not close to the amount a SD slot can provide.
Looks like BJP will lose their majority as well: https://www.theguardian.com/world/article/2024/jun/04/india-election-results-narendra-modi-bjp
A good start, and hopefully India decides to turf them out completely in the next election.
I’ll add the old school method of scrobbling to last.fm for discovery still works pretty well too, and you can play music directly there now using Youtube (probably been there for years I assume). Just found some pretty obscure stuff that isn’t even available on the mainstream streaming services, so that’s a win.
And they are not even the only comedians doing this. It’s basically a trope at this point.
