Youtube Rant from a paying customer

I used to use NewPipe back in the days of yore. Then I got Youtube Premium since it bundled in Youtube Music as well which I used. But the former’s app on mobile is a shit show. Even after paying, you are asked to tip random creators, purchase merchandise[ which are shown as actual ads below videos] and join channels to access...

Why not browse your subscriptions through subscriptions section? I understand that it’s annoying that you can’t make it default on startup in the app but it’s there.

I’m just loving the amount of bad press Microsoft is deservedly getting.

Microsoft thinks that their own games barely need advertising or hype because they’re available on Game Pass anyway. They’re forgetting that those ads would be Xbox ads too. And so the death spiral continues.

And so far right will continue its rise. Left and moderates need to be reminded of class struggle I guess.

I thought right was for immigration because it means cheap labour.

Better graphics means much bigger budget and that means you’ll get writing for lowest common denominator of consumers as well as microtransactions to extract every last cent from them.

Weird week for endorsements. Digital Foundry endorses leprosy, Rich from Red Letter Media endorses baby fucking and now Mike Ybarra endorses pure evil.

I bet the suits that decided to kill Arkane Austin are the same suits that forced them to do a live service game.

OP said that Olsen twins in Full House were unfuckable because they were too old by then.

Highly misleading. Samsung Next, a Samsung VC firm closed Israel offices but will keep investing in Israel.

This appears to be original source from a month ago: www.calcalistech.com/ctechnews/article/by1p82me0

Today, I am sharing the news that Samsung Next has made necessary organizational changes in the Tel Aviv office to consolidate its activities. Israel remains an attractive market for Samsung Next, and the existing relationships with partners and portfolio companies will remain unchanged.

If you ride a bus without a ticket, other passengers will have to pay more because upkeep and salaries are more or less a fixed cost. That is if you can afford the ticket, it’s irrelevant otherwise. Also depends on profit margins but I think it explains the point.

I was merely explaining how one comes to this line of thinking which is what OP was asking about. I also mentioned some holes in this logic so I think it’s clear it’s not an opinion I actually hold.

Disproving them won’t even change antivaxer minds but it’s more about not being caught off-guard by bullshit. Education won’t fix it either. Those magical thinking movements are built on ruling elites being being proven untrustworthy time and time again.
