Then you do not use the service, as that is the terms of the agreement.

People are entitled and constantly fed rhetoric online that it is morally acceptable to steal by blocking ads. As a YouTube content creator, who makes educational tech videos, I have seen my share of complaints because I dare to take a sponsorship. People simply do not assign value to digital goods, they are seen as free by default.

The cheap tech (the cool stuff at least) is massively subsidized by the CCP which is attempting to enter the market. Normal strategy but it will not and can not last.

Every single major OS ships with a simple screen recorder. Name your OS and I'll tell you the name of the screen recorder you already have installed right now.

Very tragic. We have GitHub sponsors of course but that's also obviously tied to a specific vendor that I'm sure many or some would like to avoid for various reasons.

Beyond the fact that I'm sure everyone currently receiving long running donation support is likely going to see massive drops in funding after finding a new provider.

Lol

With RAG it's entirely possible to essentially eliminate 100% of hallucinations, given you are ok with responding with "I don't know" once in a while. These situations are likely coming from poorly implemented chatbot, or they decided that "I dont know" was not acceptable, and really that should be a queue to send you to a real human.

I love that you can install games on SD cards on the Steam Deck, but how do you organize and keep track of them?

... those are equivalent statements

Imo this is a direct response given the other post costs money.

In one hour, a paid app for which there are many open source alternatives,is the top post on HN? Anyone want to speculate?

Agreed

A friend of mine can't access anything, period, without ten minutes of debugging to find what he's blocking

The absolute distain for YouTube has bothered me for a long time as a YouTube creator of many years myself. The platform is the most fair by far to creators and viewers. Amazing how little hate TikTok gets.

What do you call sneaking into a movie theater or a magic show or other live performance? What do you call not paying for your ticket and still obtaining the value of the experience created?

I make videos, they cost me real money to make. When you steal views, you are costing me the money I should have been paid for your view to help cover those costs associated with entertaining you.

This isn't some moral puzzle, you are a thief.

They aren't offering it for free. That's the entire point. It's offered ad-supported. You are so accustomed to theft you are incorrectly interpreting this.

Counter argument, no, THIS is a terrible take.

You aren't loading any ads if you have premium, you can't be affected

I hope YouTube finds a way to just fully stop working for all ad blockers. Creators deserve to be paid, YouTube deserves to exist. 55% of revenue goes to creators.

Support content creators and get YouTube Premium.

Correct. Every single time these people are incorrect and we keep having to explain this

Ah, no lol. Thank you for the catch.

The approach now would be to use an FPGA. See Analogue Pocket, but other kits exist.

You explained it yourself fine. Justin was for all content. Twitch is for gaming. Clear cut and simple. There are TONS of live streaming services to choose from, this one is meant to be for gaming.

Mastodon isn't meant for hosting this kind of content, for the same reason you aren't meant to put this kind of content on Twitter. Mastodon is like a social RSS feed reader.

I see people repeatedly misunderstand this aspect unfortunately, because it's hurting the adoption. It has no effect what instance you are on, you are all on Activity Pub. You can join any instance you want and it will be no different from joining any other instance. You can interact with anyone on any instance. This is just like how you only need to know my Email address to send me a message, you do not need to also use the same Email provider as me.

Man you guys will upvotes anything with Rust in the title hmm?

I was planning on maybe upgrading my Pixel 6 Pro for the 8, but then it came out with a smaller screen, more money.. and.. a thermometer? Who the hell asked for a thermometer? Give me Lidar.

It hasn't been anywhere near long enough to ask what Microsoft is doing or has done with that IP, they JUST got their hands on it.

Could you not say the same thing about cash? The one difference here is it a defacto nation-agnostic currently that can (because we decided to) be easily traded nearly anywhere in the world. One advantage of it is the relatively fixed supply. It's still all made up but at least you can touch it and carry it with you. Land is great, but you can't take it with you.

Hey all! I am the lead developer on this project. I had a lot of fun playing with Astro for the second-ish time and working with the principal of least JavaScript possible. I'm excited about this launch, and happy to answer any questions!
