They have a paid method in place.

YouTube Premium.

Free access you pay with ads.

All of us cheapskates have been using adblock or YouTube vanced to get the service completely free.

I’m not going to curse them for making efforts to stop us leaching their service for free.

Duck duck go needs a lot of work to replace Google search.

I’ve used it for years but often I still get the shits and just bring Google up after duck duck go fails to find what I’m looking for.

Seems pretty easy to control though.

Once spammer is detected, you just ban them and the account that invited, all the way up a down that invite tree.

Twitter made a small profit in 2018 and 2019. They lost money in every other year.

In fact the year before Musk started ranting about buying it, they reported their biggest loss ever.

The company was a disaster before and after Musk.

I lived in a town with 50k back in the 90s. I don’t remember there ever being a bus service except for the school buses.

The town was pretty massive though. Half the town was on a plateau as well so you had to walk up a pretty huge hill to get to half of it.

There was quite a few taxi’s driving people around.

Maybe there was a bus that I never used and can’t remember. As a kid I rode everywhere. That hill was a son of a bitch though.

It definitely flew under the radar. I would say most people have never seen it.

100% a scam.

No one is ever getting a product from this.

Yeah, the issue is, the laptop is full of photos. She took it to Apple after I failed to figure it out. They said they can wipe it but not recover the photos.

It’s just a crap system.

I don’t agree with the Mac one.

The Mac UI is basically windows 3.1.

It’s absolutely awful.

Also, windows will never brick your machine because of a full hard drive. My wife has a shitty MacBook air. She filled the drive completely. The OS can no longer function. It boots and that’s it. You can’t open anything, you can’t delete anything. Every single click says free up HDD space, even deleting files.

It’s so fucking bad.

I don’t see any of this. It’s probably because I ran https://christitus.com/windows-tool/ right after install.

I think it disables all the annoying parts of windows and you just get left with a stable OS.

Don’t forget the hardcore left wing echo chamber… Oh wait that was Reddit as well.

For example, how do I have the best experience gaming… Switch to Lin… Oh ಠ_ಠ

This is the way

It was never worth the stupid value it was pumped up to. Why do you think Elon has been dumping so much of it.

I can. Have a meeting in Citrix and I happily work while people yabber on in the background.

The real killer is the face to face meetings. My group supervisor now demands anyone in the office on a particular day go into his office for the team meeting. That’s a real time waster.

People online can’t hear us properly standing around in his office. Can’t get work done while standing in there.

Just let me work from home so I don’t have a bunch of people wander over to me to ask stupid questions during the day.

If you want something send me an email and I’ll get to it when I have time. Walking into my space, making me take my noise cancelling headphones off so you can yabber at me and break my concentration is so annoying.

I’m untouchable at home. I work until I need a break, then quickly sort questions and queries, then get back into my groove for another hour or two.
