That’s excellent! I had the same idea I completed a few weeks ago in python trying to write it with the standard library and have it be easily auditable. You can check it out here if you want: https://github.com/avnigo/

I'd like to imagine a future where I can stream fractions of a cent per minute/hour to the video provider or creator in exchange for consumption of that content. That way I only pay for however much I actually consume and the plat

It's actually quite amusing asking it to give you a list of consonants in which Greek words can end in, and then example words for each. It's pretty much all hallucination and then it tries to gaslight you.

If the author thought about all this in an essay, you can bet Apple did too in their many years working on this. Whether they managed to come up with proper solutions to these issues is another matter, but I'd be hard-pressed to think

I've had no luck blocking YouTube's consent popup with uBlock Origin. From what I remember, it would randomize the element ID and also add a load delay, and if you managed to block it, it would block comments from loading or break
