we had Netflix, Amazon, Disney and Binge for nearly a year simultaneously.
Binge just hit us with a 20%+ price increase so its gone. Amazon is likely to stay as the video is just an added bonus. We watch netflix and disney a lot but any silly increases and they can say good bye too. I guess its only a matter of time
what they are saying is that in the past, technological leaps meant increases in productivity and generally freed the displaced workers into new careers, but this time the sheer scale of change that is imminent doesn't leave time for that. it's going to be bad
what are you interested in? everytime I dip my toe into a new interest I'm always blown away by the sheer volume and quality available on YouTube. right now I'm using it to supplement duolingo to help learn a new language, something I never tried before
I have an extension that hides shorts from my feed. the other day I used my account on the ps4/TV and oh my.... shorts everywhere.
I need a way to block specific channels too (or mute them) without unsubscribing as there's one in particular I want to remain subbed too (it's a community thing) but over his bullshit 6 videos a day spam
yeah like who has a few days of youtube ad blocking not work then goes "that's it im uninstalling this ad blocker and going back to ALL THE ADS EVERYWHERE
sort of, but we (at least the older millenials) experienced some of the good times before everything went to shit. the younger gens cannot have the experiences we had as children and in some cases young adults. we mourn what we lost, but probably look like "old man yells at clouds" to those who don't know what they never had
interesting. i was 100% sure it was a suess book until i asked mum about it and she was like what are you talking about thats not dr suess. wonder if she still has it
the problem I have is that while I agree seasons 1-4 were brilliant, I simply can't watch them again because of how it ended. simply knowing how bad it became is enough to tarnish those seasons because the things they were setting up, simply didn't matter. like at all
I actually miss when maccas used to make the stuff in bulk and chuck on a rack. you'd order, they'd grab your burger and stuff bag it and your done. now it's "made to order" and while it's admittedly pretty quick, during peak times you'll be waiting a while.
there was never an issue with the bulk system cause everything moved so quick anyway
that bullshit where they started serving fries in those dollar shop shitty chrome baskets with that stupid overpriced "create your own" was the turning point I noticed when they lost track of what they were and suddenly thought they were a gourmet burger joint.
that initiative failed, the "gourmet" burgers are relegated to a niche menu item with like 2 choices that hardly anyone orders, so instead they just jack the prices on everything else as though it's "fancy enough". I only go there where there is actual cheap deals in the app, and for free coffees earnt through the app. their everyday prices are a complete joke for what they provide
at the risk of sounding like a weirdo, does anyone else remember a book called the First of Octember? it was written and illustrated as though it was a Dr Suess story, but apparbely it wasnt
more boats /= capable navy. most of their "navy" is small patrol boats
