That's sad to hear.

What about the irreparable harm caused by outlandish fees, or will they be forced to pay those back?

Oh ok :(

As it is now, only people who read about it or live there and try to find the song will ever even know about the block. If Google refused and was kicked out of Hong Kong, just about every single citizen would notice and the government would have to explain precisely why they decided to ban all Google services over a song about freedom. I don't think the people in charge would last long if that happened, considering how integral Google's services are to many people's lives.

You need to make sure to remove excess whitespace from the JSON to speed up parsing. Have an AI read the JSON as plaintext and convert it to a handwriting-style image, then another one to use OCR to convert it back to text. Trailing whitespace will be removed.

Ugh, what a fucking shitshow. I know it won't happen quickly or easily, but I'm hoping to see more people on federated platforms in the next decade or two. It's the only way for us to take the internet back from these greedy bastards.

I don't even like tankies, but this one didn't say anything wrong.

Doesn't that only happen on the mobile version? Either way, it's stupid and annoying. Google should start de-ranking sites that add barriers to content, but I know they never will.

Legally. OC stated that NewPipe doesn't worry about legal threats because they scrape instead of using an official API.

I meant legally.

But bears are just so cute and fluffy! They could never hurt a fly.

Is it any different for an "API"? I don't think there's a very big difference between an HTTP endpoint that returns HTML and an HTTP endpoint that returns JSON.

Yeah, but that doesn't work well on 1440p because it doesn't scale perfectly.

I had a 1440p monitor and "downgraded" back to 1080p when it broke because I could barely tell the difference when gaming and I get a significantly higher framerate in most games at 1080p, which does make a big difference for me.

Inert gas hypoxia is painless if done right. This is Alabama though, so I wouldn't trust them to even use the right kind of gas, much less administer it correctly.

Can they really sue (with a chance of winning) if you scrape content that's submitted by users? That's insane.

I got a laptop with an HDD a while back because I'm an idiot "more storage space hurr durr!"

It took 10-15 minutes to boot and another 5-10 just to open a web browser when it was running Windows 10. Even once stuff was open, everything was so laggy that it wasn't really usable. I'd miss a solid chunk of whatever we were supposed to be doing on our laptops in class when I was using it for that.

Linux changed EVERYTHING. It boots in just a couple of minutes and only needs a minute or two to settle itself before things start running smoothly. I even managed to play Hollow Knight on it with no lag!

People don't realize how bloated Windows is until they try Linux. If your computer is slow and was made in the last 10 years, no it isn't, your OS is.

You should tell them that if users love ads so much, you should add a slider to let people control how many ads they get. Surely they'll only increase the ad count, right?

You're only draining a few gigawatts 24/7? Those are rookie numbers! We can pump those numbers up with the power of blockchain! Every training epoch will be verified using proof of work.

That's why I'd sign out ASAP if they made the announcement. It'd also definitely light a fire under my ass to start switching things to ProtonMail.
