Me too. I'm also on Google Fi still for reasons, I know there are better options. The moment they start blocking Ublock I will be cancelling my phone plan.
IMO reddit won but only by engaging a new audience. It removed the 1 post per subreddit on the front page without an announcement, modified the upvote algorithm to make upvote numbers seem larger than they are, and comments per upvote are lower than 10 years ago. Basically engagement is way down for people who use it like a forum aggregate. But engagement is way up by people who are migrating off of Instagram and similar platforms. I used to feel weird about being on reddit but now I have my wife's 20 mostly female coworkers asking me about it. Reddit has a new audience it appeals to and it's creating a weird issue because for some dumbass reason they thought the unpaid engagement generators would stick around after they fucked everything up for a few short term dollars.
Right it would be hard to implement. It's just one of the types of channels I don't think should be getting income from ads because it is an ad. Realistically it's much easier to not bother making more rules that are expensive to implement.
Same here. Bought in 2018 which was supposed to be at some all time high. Then refinanced it during COVID with a total monthly payment of $1500 on a 3br2ba house. When we bought the house we thought we were making a dumb decision, now I'm some sort of genius for getting lucky. I can't imagine trying to rent these days.
They are real shokz open run headphones. I'm not trying to shit on people that use them they just seem to suck for me. The extra charge cable also pisses me off.
She has better hearing than I do but when listening to a podcast they are loud enough she can't hear normal talking volume. Like I can stand next to her and say something and if she doesn't see me she can't hear me. It's bad enough that she told me to buy her the cheap independent ear headphones I use as a gift in the future because she's annoyed by it.
I never get vertigo and have crazy good balance. I haven't fallen over in a decade and I ski and mountain bike a lot. I think the headphones vibrate some part of my ear that is part of how I balance.
Edit: thinking about it it's not vertigo I feel. It's that I can feel my skull vibrating and it is absolutely awful. I can feel it shaking behind my eyes. So maybe I'm weird and can feel something most people can't?
Warning for people like me. I have no way to define it clearly but these headphones make me want to die. My wife bought them for me so I didn't know anything about them when I tried them. I've never been more nauseous in my entire life. I lost my balance and almost puked before I ripped them off my head. I still feel like a drama queen.
My wife loves them though lol (she's not a cunt so she was really confused why I hated them so much). For those that want them for running so you are more aware, they make you deaf as fuck to the world. Just run with 1 Bluetooth headphone and stay safe.
It would make sense to charge some channels for being on the platform. A good example in my feed is Banks Power. They make their money selling turbos and other stuff to WT. Then they come to YT and build brand precense basically for free. YT deserves some of the money generated from being a cheap advertising platform imo.
Not a hard question to answer when you remember how ridiculously stupid he is. I've been calling him stupid for a decade and I'm finally cashing in. Dude has accidentally succeeded a couple times and thinks he's tony stark. Of course he's going to say the dumbest shit imaginable because he thinks he's smart so how could his thoughts be dumb?
I wish this were only a problem with kids. I'm a system integrator and I'm constantly asking for screenshots of HMIs for troubleshooting. It's about 50/50 with my current client if it's going to be a jank cell phone picture or an actual screenshot. I think it's an uneducated portion of the population that is too dumb to give a shit. They always existed but now the barrier to posting a photo is finally low enough that they can barely step over it and us early PC users are annoyed by them.
It's definitely the second paragraph that I disagree with after rereading your initial comment. Never agree with a sociopath, doesn't matter if they are factually correct, it normalizes their other batshit insane behavior. My life was almost destroyed by a sociopath that made international news for a week and even saying they might be right makes their other lies feel less bad. So the downvotes are justified just for that one sentence even if you go on to sort of disagree with it.
Your being downvoted because your using nuance and freeze peaches as a shield IMO.
Everything is political when dealing with a politician. Trump is completely wrong as always, he put himself under the microscope by being president and the delays are irrelevant to the current charges as you stated. He's bitching like he always does and he's still just bitching with no truth behind it.
No, they just aren't as stupid and unorganized as Republicans. They can do basic math and have discussions in good faith so they know it's not worth bringing it to a vote they know will fail. You are expecting them to be chest pounding idiots when you know they aren't.
The day old reddit I gone is the day it is officially dead. Reddit is appealing to the insta audience now and it sucks. I've talked to so many people who only recently discovered reddit and they have no idea that discussion used to drive the site. It's a picture browsing site for them. The site is going down the tubes quickly so it can do an IPO I guess.
YouTube premium is the worst streaming deal I've found. Yesterday I cleaned up all my streaming services and my wife was interested in adding YouTube premium. It's $23/mth for absolutely no features that are worth it. I pay less for the D+/hulu bundle. I have no idea why anyone pays for it. It's cheaper to buy a media PC every year to use ublock in a browser than pay for YouTube premium.
That's sort of my feeling as well. Putting my tin foil hat on. I think it's why I'm in the group that isn't being fucked with yet.
