    1. Listen on YT with adblock
    2. Download audio with Newpipe (OPUS 160kbps)
    3. Manage files with Amaze
    4. Listen with VLC

    I like this model, because YT has niche creators and I dont have to care about "Spotify changes X" news. Note: I have 1.5GB songs stored locally and listen ~30 minutes daily. I acknowledge discovering new songs is slower

  • Not just Meta. Every closed software from any developer can potentialy spy on its users

  • [insert].is.bs

  • I aint German
    \ I dont speak German at all
    \ I have never been to Germany
    \ Im not even technic

  • In June, Google announced a competition for researchers to come up with solutions to A.I.’s inability to forget

    Free labor? Hope researches wont fall for this

  • Im not audiophile so I scrape audio with newpipe. Downloaded and stream quality are indistinguishably satisfactory.

  • I usually dont bother to read articles, because they are seo garbage. I glance at top comments written by true people to verify info instead

  • Is there list of flawed Reagan's policies? I only remember deregulating greenhouse emmisions

  • I have tried searching it but it gives following results:

    • higher taxes? - In my country taxes are same everywhere
    • rent? - In cities rents are higher, because more people are on reach of shop. So owner pays more in rent to sell more goods than when he would sell them in worse location otherwise. He makes bigger profit in return.
    • higher salaries? - People have more money. People buy more things. Thing get pricer in cities. Cost of manufacturing product doesnt depend on location of sell. Factories adjust by sending more products to cities instead of less dense location. Market balances and price is same everywhere. (A bit higher althought)
    • transportation from factory to city? - I would say its opposite due to economics of scale. Train transports products to distribution centres around city. Inside city delivery truck travels less distance to supply more shops. On the other side truck has to ride much longer distance to supply less shops.
    • higher demand? - People in cities consume more? Same story as with salaries apply here.
    • perceived value?! - Maybe I have started to look for answers too hard
    • weather?! - This could make sense in some cases like heat island and cold products
  • there’s been a shift to entertainment-based video feeds like TikTok — which is now being used as a primary search engine by a new generation of internet users. 

    I hate when journalists use data from Arse Research Institute to boost sensation

    But if that last 25 years of Google’s history could be boiled down to a battle against the Google bomb, it is now starting to feel that the search engine is finally losing pace with the hijackers. Or as Marwick put it, “Google has gotten shittier and shittier.”

    “To me, it just continues the transformation of the internet into this shitty mall,” Marwick said. “A dead mall that’s just filled with the shady sort of stores you don’t want to go to.”

    Worth citing

    Dash is one of the web’s earliest bloggers. In 2004, he won a competition Google held to google-bomb itself with the made-up term “nigritude ultramarine.”

    DarkBlue.com is not Google

  • Its better in all regards.

    I wish it was true. My strategy is to use ddg in first try to find something and switch to google when ddg ducks in wrong way. Currently google is better in images and searching for "this particular site" instead of answer on any site

  • In Poland railway is a national joke

  • Havent seen "$100 feature phone" since 2017 when my grandpa upgraded his phone

  • He sees you as:

    Someone who posts to an internet forum or newsgroup, claiming to share its goals while deliberately working against those goals, typically, by claiming "concern" about group plans to engage in productive activity, urging members instead to attempt some activity that would damage the group's credibility, or alternatively to give up on group projects entirely.

  • Truck is machine dedicated for transportation of goods. Not art from museum.

  • Average is 750'000 ms ping to Earth, but it depends on season
