I think that YT should open up APIs to make a better frontend for third party apps, like what Reddit had, at least to premium users.

If you aren’t signed into an Apple ID it’ll give you nag pop-ups.
If you don’t accept the iCloud T&C, even if you never use it, it’ll give you nag pop-ups.
If you haven’t set up Apple pay, it’ll give you nag pop-ups.
It’ll also give you a double nag pop-up for every new minor iOS version until you update it.
I’m sure I’m missing a bunch here.
I use Calc84 on the Google Play store, free with minimal ads and a one-time fee to remove ads.
But it seems like others have found FOSS versions here.
Most Android skins. Even stock Android can get naggy at times.
And don’t even get me started on iOS if you haven’t done what Apple wants you to do. It’ll give you a pop-up at least once every day.
Oh, and Smart TVs? Don’t even think about having any control; you are a slave to the OS.
So you’re saying I can get away with anything as long as I somehow legally declare myself a corporation?
I thought Mediatek was even more closed off than Qualcomm.
Headphones with an internal MicroSD slot or at least lots of internal storage to locally play back music.
What is this equation? When I see 1/(2πi) I immediately think of inverse Fourier transforms but the DT (instead of dΩ) shoots that down, then I see strange nested logarithms.
Forgot to mention the rapidly expanding metro
Patreon, sponsorships, and Nebula
Is OpenRecall secure as well? One of my biggest problems with MS recall is that it stores all your personal info in plain text.
YouTube is totally gonna copy this.
Can we have AI-capable PCs without the cloud nonsense please? Isn’t the whole point of local AI to reduce cloud reliance?
I just want to be able to corner hard and accelerate hard and do some spirited driving in a safe area without that info getting sold to insurance companies…
This is why I don’t use Adobe.
I’m so glad I saw the red flags from earlier and decided to stay far away from anything Adobe.
Anyways, this is the new business tactic. Start stealing confidential information by somehow forcing a new ToS change or update.
Natural Gas companies: No, MMBTU/scf or bust!
The next generation of design is already taking shape. It’s a simplistic skewmorphic design, where it looks like the logo has been made out of clay. Look at the new Reddit and Android logo.
I make sure my own web game can run smoothly on crappy hardware. It runs well on my gaming laptop downclocked to 400MHz with a 4x slowdown set by Chrome. It also loads in a couple seconds with a typical crappy Internet connection of 200kbps and >10% packet loss. However, it doesn’t run smoothly on my Snapdragon 425 phone or my old Core 2 Duo laptop. Is this my game or just browser overhead?
I never knew the word was used as a slur or had sexual connotations. I thought it was a verb akin to “nerf” or “cripple”, as in “Windows 11 gimped the taskbar functionality.” I guess this word is still bad, as I want to enhance, not “gimp,” my pictures.
A couple years ago YouTube decided to F up their search. It used to be mostly things you are searching for, now it’s:
20% thing you searched for,
20% Shorts,
10% people also watched,
10% related [extremely tangentially]
10% For You
and 30% ads.
I don’t blame anyone for wanting someone to suggest a link after YT’s search became hot garbage.
