Happy to have my 2012 civic. One of the last gens without a telemetry unit I think.

Yeah there's way easier ways to combat that without trying to prevent scraping.

Maybe don't ship 20 units to the same address.

Man memes fucking stagnated after the mid 2010s huh?

Like 10 years before DAT boi was the era of 'all ur base are belong to us' and getting hit with your own pimp.

Imagine if we'd seen that amount of change since.

NIST are bureaucrats sure, but bureaucrats with lots and lots of practical experience.

On one hand what's going on is a travesty, on another we already tried this. It didn't work. We fucked up by meddling with the middle east in the first place.

I don't really know there's a solution for the west at this point, more than just a lesson to learn about minding your own fucking business next time.

How do you fix an oppressive society when half of its citizens seem more than willing to oppress the other half?

I have no issue when its marked, or put on a site like alibaba where there are tons of cheap shit for the cost you'd expect from a cheap repro.

Putting it on eBay for full price is a dick move.

That's kind if my point. They tool an already existing joke and just made it less funny.

Funnier shitposts.

This comment fucking blows, I abhore comments that start with 'i'.

If the people who produce videos don't stop, there isn't much of an alternative other than abstinence.

At which point, what's the benefit over using a mirror like invidious which gives you your video, uses up resources of the people you don't like, and doesn't harvest your data?

I wouldn't use the actual YouTube site, or software clients. But open source mirror/alt clients like invidious, yt-dlp, or newpipe seem like a workable alternative.

Until people who make videos move the fuck over, most of my subscriptions in newpipe will continue to be YouTube accounts, and not channels hosted on a peertube instance.

Luckily newpipe works with both... For now.

Well that's an assumption...

Also what's the point of being anti-ai when you're already anti-cpyright?

The issue isn't generative AI, its capitalism. The AI just makes capitalism's bad parts more efficient, or is at least supposed to.

Next time use matrix.

This instances meme sub's seem to have been devlolving into r/im14andthisisfunny for a minute now.

Its a shame lemmy's gotten big enough for the big meme sub's to be insufferable before it got big enough for the smaller ones to flourish.

Unfortunately you're kind of stuck if what you want to watch is only being uploaded there. That's why these alternatives exist. So you can watch their shit without contributing back to the site.

As someone who uses invidious daily I've always been of the belief if you don't want something scraped, then maybe don't upload it to a public web page/server.

Oof that's a typo, yeah meant years. Sorry bud.

Then maybe they shouldn't be such a good testbed for western weapon systems?
