Crafty wankers.

I very much doubt there will be boots on the ground type of action.

I don’t think it’s entirely fair to say that all money on YouTube comes from ads. IIRC nearly half comes from subscriptions and each Premium watcher is basically worth much more than ad-supported ones. My thinking is similar to yours - creators need to host things themselves and the next step would be creating coops that optimise infrastructure costs and deal with stuff like payment processing for subs. Nebula is one, Floatplane is another but with LTT yuck. We need more, especially non-US based. And people need to sub those too.

I’m not native speaker but I assumed they meant fighter aircraft - I’m pretty sure I’ve heard this term before.

In all honesty I don’t understand how PeerTube is supposed to scale with users once it gets content. Hosting, transcoding and streaming video is super expensive. There’s also a matter of making money from videos and without financial incentive it’ll be hard to compete with commercial solutions (in a capitalist hellholes that most of us live in). Community funding can keep up with hosting text but can barely keep up with hosting pictures, let alone something more, unless you’re an internet archive or something.

People who are on Nebula already made it in Youtube and they’re so big that they just want to make more money. They provide nice service for the money but I don’t think they will come support your revolution for free.

Houthis have been disturbing commercial vessels going through the Red Sea for over a year now. This is a natural continuation of US policy so far, if a bit reckless, but that’s a common theme currently.

Surf joins Tapestry in cloning Reeder which I bashed as a concept on Lemmy but have become devout fan of since then. If you’re in Apple ecosystem - it’s the most feature complete and streamlined app of this kind so far. It’s subscription based but very cheap compared to the competition.

I’ll still be checking this out - the more competition the better. At this point I’m waiting to see if someone integrates posts and replies on Mastodon/Bluesky and some kind of way to share content between networks and protocols. Sky is the limit here.

What a time to be alive, huh?

I don’t want to spoil this quest for you because it’s one of the most touching things in video games ever. This is a fairly spoiler-free explanation how to kick it off: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/ds/950181-chrono-trigger/answers/16685-how-do-i-access-the-fionas-villa-side-quest

I don’t think they are personally concerned and are just using it as a tool. Good news regardless.

Is that the origin of the picture? I think I first saw it on DeviantArt ages ago and used as a wallpaper for a time. I checked out A Softer World and it certainly looks similar, and interesting. Thanks!

I’m pretty sure they will just switch from contractors to full time employees for regulatory reasons while keeping chunk of their operations in India, Poland and Philippines as it is now.

Data governance is a joke in most companies (one of things I do is being data steward in a bank) and I don’t think they’re going to change it this way.

Okay, the next question is obvious then. Can we run Doom on an electric grid?

It’s from the brochure. I too would like to know.

This one makes so much sense I’m surprised it’s the first time I hear it.

This is needed because Xbox is so unpopular that Xbox gamers need somebody to talk to about Halo and stuff. I would know, I own XSX but I don’t like people so that works for me as it is.

Let’s hope those are just tracks confirmed so far. IIRC THPS1+2 had most if not all of the old tracks with some modern ones in the mix which fit perfectly.

Sometimes it’s not about the destination but the journey!
