I work with C# daily and even I didn’t realize I made a pun there xD
Maybe it’s just embedded in my subconscious at this point…

Godot is a good example of a free and well-developed open source game engine. It’ll probably see a sharp rise in adoption following this controversy from Unity.
It’s still bad for their profit margins when their stocks fall by 8% in one day, when major indie developers announce they’ll be moving their current projects off of Unity and future developers are deterred from using their software in the first place.
Whether they care about money or care about public relations, their shooting themselves in the foot on both counts.
Music is one of the easiest things to pirate, so much so that I often forget me downloading flacs of the songs I listen to is supposed to be a no-no
Between a flac playing app (Musicolet on Android and MusicBee on PC) as well as YT Music Revanced, things go smoothly
I already hated Android 12 for overhauling the aesthetic for the worse: making volume sliders obscenely wide, making the notification shade just an over-enlarged mess, and the half-assed implementation of Material You. On my Pixel 3 that I used at the time, this change alone made me root a phone for the first time just to fix all of it.
Two updates later and once again Google fucks up something that was perfectly fine before and turns me off from their operating system yet again. While I’m nowhere close to using an iPhone, I may just use GrapheneOS if I have to switch to a phone that comes with Android 14+ out of the box.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but from what I’m reading online, Proton doesn’t “market” or “advertise” discounted plans beyond what you’ll save by purchasing a longer plan for their VPN. They do have a page on coupons here: https://proton.me/support/coupons
And based on what it says, as well as other tweets and reddit comments I’ve seen from their official accounts, they grant these coupons on a case by case basis. So forgive me for being skeptical, but I don’t believe it was false advertising, nor do I believe it was presented as a plan to begin with.
Unless you have a screenshot that shows them blatantly telling you it was a plan, I think you probably misread what they said, and that it “suddenly a coupon and not a plan anymore” isn’t actually truthful. Though of course, you could very well be right, and I might just be skeptical for no reason
Oh yeah, I agree it’s a wise decision for any content creator, especially those who want to make a living from it, to diversify their sources of income. Backing up all content they post on YouTube to other sites as well is also really nice as it contributes to the push away from YouTube without having to risk little on their part as well
I dont care content makers are losing, they are all dumbarses, and if they are supporting yt still and not posting elsewhere, then they are just stupid cunts.
You had me until here. If you want to monetize online video content or get widespread appeal, YouTube is pretty much the viable choice atm, save for Twitch which only works if you’re a streamer or Nebula, which even then it alone doesn’t suffice and is very specific. If you plan on trying to “make it big” using PeerTube, Vimeo, Dailymotion, etc. alone, your aspirations may as well be dead on arrival.
Not losing sleep over the money content creators lose over you using adblock is fine, I personally don’t put too much importance on it myself. But to call them all dumbasses or stupid cunts is just unreasonable, given the lack of a proper, popular alternative for most of them to do what they do.
Hadn’t heard of FreeTube before, thanks for mentioning it!
Speaking of Fahrenheit 451, weren’t there seashells mentioned in that book? Little devices you could stuff in your ears to play music? And those ended up being uncannily similar to the wireless earbuds we have today?
Oh damn, it must’ve looked even cooler in person I’d imagine
