Yup. You can pay Netflix for 4K, but you can only get 4K with Edge on Windows and even then only if you have the right hardware. Like, what’s the point? On Linux you can only get 1080p by spoofing your just agent. Otherwise they only give you 720p.

Yea, that’s just plain stupid of them. I don’t know how they expected that to go over.

Oh yes, I bought that content, but sure, take it away. I totally understand that the licensing changed.

– No one, ever

To be fair, streaming was never buying. It was always paying entry to a library. If stuff gets removed from the library that’s the way it is.
That isn’t to say I don’t agree. Piracy is a service problem, as Gabe Newell so eloquently put it. Streaming started losing the moment it started splintering into cable networks.

Yes, but consider ownership.

Play store is a shitshow. It’s so hard to spot the few actual gems in the absolute avalanche of ad-ridden asset flip time wasters that have the only goal of harvesting your data or running a monero miner in the background. The chances are better with paid games, but even then it’s hit-or-miss.
I gave up on mobile gaming long ago.

Very integrity,
such independent,
much rigorous.
Wow.

Only on geologic timescales, though, which requires special preservation, otherwise there won’t be any remains.

Anything but fair compensation.

To be fair, depending on how the hummus is seasoned, that might work quite well.

Because they can?
Because they want to learn?
Because they haven’t found an instance they liked?
Because they want to create an instance for some specific interest and existing instances aren’t the right fit?
Because they want a private instance for their family/friends?
Because they want to use it a bit like a client, deciding which instances they interface with?
Because virtually every instance is simply someone hosting their own and letting random strangers use it.

Of course it is. It is trained on past decisions, which were predominantly terrible. As such, future decisions it will take will be, too.
As a result it works exactly as intended, making the same horrible decisions at a fraction of the cost of underpaid humans.

Of course they do. It’s what they live for. All their focus is on the afterlife. Their actual life is just an annoyance that comes first.

I don’t care for those, either.

I fail to see how that is superior to the encryption provided by gpg.

So will they rename to closed captions?

It was a deliberate choice of words intended to reflect and emphasise what they might think of the average voter. But good looking out.

that is a very low effort and bad faith argument for what she is arguing for

Imagine rhetorically competent fascists. That’s terrifying!
The common rabble can’t see through their flimsy lies as is. They’d be completely out of their depth if republicans took even just an introductory class to discussion and rhetorics.

Burn more fossil fuels, nothing bad will ever come of it, it’s cheaper, and it lines the pockets of our sponsors

Fucking idiots

That’s what a systemd.path unit accomplishes, too. It watches a path, and if that file/directory changes, it starts its accompanying systemd.service.

Many client apps don’t even offer the option.
