They chose to financially put themselves in a situation where they are forced to release content at that frequency because they chose to expand operations and drastically increase expenses compared to other channels. It’s their decisions that created the work cycle that is needed in pursuit of exponential growth over a more financially sustainable model that affords the luxury for a less hectic release schedule.

It’s getting old seeing people keep making they have to do it this way when it is the situation they created for themselves.

Monetizing an apology video of all things says it all.

He’s another tech bro. Wan show always seemed more like a soap box for him to try to make him seem like an aww shucks type of guy, but there was the whole discussing wages issue at LTT too that broke the illusion of the image he tries to depict of himself.

Just because you disagree with someone doesn’t mean it’s automatically a circle jerk. People do have valid reasons for not choosing to spend money on the epic platform.

I wonder how many people on the receiving end even change their mind. I feel like if anything they’d completely reject the cause that is trying to be pushed, and the end result is a circle jerk between people who were already in agreement.

It depends on what the goal of the protest is and an assessment of whether the act is going to actually be successful in bringing about the change they want.

If that isn’t taken into account it’ll just make people more ingrained in their beliefs, and possibly increase hatred towards the groups and the cause overall. Which can just lead to increased conflict and increase extremists on both spectrums.

Sometimes then the cause just devolves into people on both sides just reveling in getting to act out their primal desires.

It’ll probably be a 4k tv then? LG, Samsung, Sony, TCL, and Vizio seem to all have airplay support for TVs released recently these days. If Android TV it’s easy to side load smarttubenext, but never bothered due to finding airplay convent enough.

Until then it might be worth checking out to see if you can get smarttubenext installed on your chromecast

Looks like it is up to only 720p. Never been bothered by it myself for the type of content I’ve air played. Not ideal for movies or TV shows though.

What brand do you have? If they have Android TV they seem to usually have airplay support too, but you need to go into settings and then get your Apple device paired with the TV to get airplay to start working.

Here’s one https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/apk-mod-5-0-twitchmod-twitch-app-modification.4129481/page-8

I don’t watch twitch so I can’t attest to its effectiveness.

I don’t think they are uploading expecting anything back, or an expectation that their channel will get big. Which is what makes their content feel more old school to begin with.

I wish some of that money found its way to small youtubers who don’t qualify for monetization and are just uploading for the fun of it. Those youtubers are my favorite since it feels more like the old YouTube or stuff like lemmy or whatever where people share without expectation of anything back other than just being excited.

I think they know people who aren’t paying already won’t buy it, so they are raising prices on those that found enough value in it to use it. There is YouTube music bundled with it that some like, so seems like smart strategy to me.

My TV has airplay support built into it so I haven’t needed to get an Apple TV. But you do need an Apple device to use Airplay.

Even twitch has work around so they are welcomed to keep trying until they are successful.

I use safari with adguard + sponsor block which lets me airplay videos to the TV. I don’t even have the YouTube app installed. No need to try and set up smarttubenext or whatever on the TV.

sponsored posts, suggested posts

I had hated that aspect of Twitter which is what chased me away to stopping use of an actual account altogether and settling for nitter instead to keep track of accounts but no longer participating. But, it was so much better with how clean it was with apps like Fritter or RSS done through nitter instances so I only saw what I wanted. Now that’s looking like method is reaching its end.

The clutter they tried to push on me wasn’t worth consuming the material the official way anymore.

It was what killed Instagram for me years back too when they killed chronological feeds. Then I deleted the account and moved to using barnista to follow accounts without an account. Then that died and I just dropped Instagram altogether and didn’t look back, since I wasn’t going to make an account again and consume things the official way.

Text messaging apps for one on one or group chats. Lot of my friends use discord and set up a channel for us when playing games or watching shows together.

I don’t use any type social media where people are actively encouraged to associate their real identity with and share personal photos or videos on a public feed. Those always made me uncomfortable, so I was very resistant to them from the start.

I wonder what percentage of the ones who were protesting the api but chose to stay and be active on reddit ended up downloading the official app.

Here is an archive link https://archive.li/CYIkm

I’ve never got a prompt for a firmware update and just used whatever generic drivers was automatically supplied. Might be in luck with being an older model.

Need to kill off rss too.

Is the firmware update something that needs to be manually done or do I have to live in fear of my brother updating on its own?

One by one dominoes that made reddit awesome are falling. Wonder if Spez has the courage to require being signed in to view reddit content.

This is looking like it’ll be a valuable tool I’ll use frequently.

I don’t even know what is going on in there since you need to app to even see anything , and there’s no way I’m downloading threads on my phone.

Chrono Trigger is an absolute classic. I’ll listen to the full soundtrack often. When playing other games actually.

I just got a cheap brother laser printer and the toner seems to last forever.

Spam is delicious. I should go pan fry some today and eat with eggs.

In search of communities due to some on here not having a high level of activity on the fediverse I ended up with coming across a bunch of forums. So they seem very much alive stil.

Wish they had built off Firefox.

But the latency for music games is the issue, since that’s typically when I’m reaching for headphones.

I do love SNES music. Particularly Chrono Trigger. I’ve been playing more retro games since I got the steam deck.

I plan to check out matrix since the /r/firefox group has been chatting through that.

I will enjoy windows 10 for at least 2 more years.

Can it really be beaten over a weekend? I might give the original a shot before getting into the remake.

I’ve like Doom Eternal and Ultrakill. It’s perfect for my sometimes short attention span with so much happening at once that it doesn’t give my mind a chance to start drifting off.

What did people use before discord?

I only use it because my friends like to for when we game or watch stuff together. But, never bothered to actually install the app or software.

Unless it gets in the way of that don’t see people moving.

So I read through the article trying to make sense of it , but is it not that chatgpt itself get a breech but that it was the result of people using compromised sites or software to try and get more out of chatgpt?

A further analysis has revealed that the majority of logs containing ChatGPT accounts have been breached by the notorious Raccoon info stealer (78,348), followed by Vidar (12,984) and RedLine (6,773).

A “large and resilient infrastructure” comprising over 250 domains is being used to distribute information-stealing malware such as Raccoon and Vidar since early 2020.

The infection chain “uses about a hundred of fake cracked software catalogue websites that redirect to several links before downloading the payload hosted on file share platforms, such as GitHub,” cybersecurity firm SEKOIA said in an analysis published earlier this month.

Was clicking through links in the article.

Glad I was paranoid enough to use a throw away email and burner number.
