You’re still interacting with the dream world in regular dreaming, just without relizing it’s a dream.

I actually prefer that, way more immersive, though the script writers are def hit-or-miss

These guys are so behind the curve. I’ve already interacted with Dream worlds countless times using this little-known hack called “dreaming.” Look it up, you won’t be disappointed.

Crazy how a business model that focuses so strongly on creating a self-sustained ecosystem in order to strong arm people into using more apple products creates so many issues with cross-compatibility, isn’t it?

Probably. Unless they’re only using that as a hook where there are still other forces not directly involved in the creative/hosting process that are taking 90% of the profits.

EDIT: just realized you’re probably talking about stuff like patreon where you actually just pay the creators, in which case, absolutely! I’ve got a number of patreons I’m actively supporting

Yep, that’s the one

If there’s one thing I’ve learned working in IT, it’s to not underestimate people’s inability to grasp even to most simple of technical tasks.

It’s something we should do to show our respect to creators

Yeah pretty based

and content producers

Unfortunately for them, most of the progress is coming from the private sector (like most cutting edge tech these days) and those guys like to brag too much to let NSA come in and say “hey can we use that on the dl for about 3 years before you say anything”

Best we can do is 5 minutes worth of additional in-game currency

I’d probably opt for an external streaming box and simply use the TV as a monitor instead of the whole system (as it was originally)

NewPipe had to update a couple of times in the past month because YouTube made changes that broke the 3rd party playback. First time it took a few days, but so far it seems they’ve been able to keep up with YouTube’s bs.

I worry for a day when YouTube figures out how to make ads an unskippable part of the video itself so that they’re present with or without adblock, while also maintaining the ability to update them as needed.

Didn’t reddit also start introducing adverts as appearing like user-generated content? If that’s included in google’s indexing I’d actually prefer relying on older indexes of the site. It’ll probably be a while before new indexes are significantly more valuable for anything other than very specific inquiries than an index of however many years it was between reddit’s founding and last week, anyway. And that’s assuming that Reddit stays as central as it is and doesn’t lose any more market share to any other reddit-like platform (like Lemmy)

I’m gonna take from this that we should have AI doing disaster recovery on all deployments. Tech CEO’s have been hyping AI up so much, what could possibly go wrong?

Man, I really do feel sorry for the people who are progressive and bought a Tesla and are stuck with ut for whichever reason from back when Musk was still that “quirky but relatable genius billionaire” (quotations because most people now know he never really was that, but a lot still thought it at the time)

If I ever become a super 1337 hacker I’m going to setup all of my exploits to look like it could be regular mismanagement, thanks for the advice
