NewPipe is a YT frontend that blocks ads, allows downloading, can run in the background and is generally great. It's a killer app for Android in my opinion. https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe

Potentially related is yt-dlp getting a 403 lately when downloading from Reddit. The extractor uses old.reddit.com. Hopefully they'll find a way to use the regular Reddit gateway instead. But I can't stand new Reddit so maybe I&#x

0.3... is just the decimal representation of 1/3. So: 0.3... = 1/3 0.6... = 2/3 0.9... = 3/3 (= 1)

Seems like a competition that started reasonably and mutated into nonsense over time as the rules were exploited (and never modified, I guess). If it's an established debate style and offered to kids as legitimate you can't blame

The equivalent would be speed chess, wouldnt it? There is nothing intellectual about speaking as fast as possible.

I completely disagree with you. Very ideological people might be given to lie about or simply ignore things that challenge their ideology.

It seems very cozy, although filled with people pushing their commercial projects. If people are projecting Bluesky's future on its current cozy state they are fools. The only way to remain cozy is to remain small.

Nearest thing to a name drop is the end, but isnt a name drop (also spoilers): "And yet, now that I am an old, old man, I must confess that of all the faces that appear to me out of the past, the one I see most clearly is that of the g

Sounds like a comfy sequence in a larger game I would anticipate on replay. I put my own $250 on the table (given the prompt and process were forthcoming).

For me the baseline is if an AI made up a new joke that is actually funny. As you say it's sort of an "I know it if I see it" issue, but anyone who has tried to prompt a language model to come up with a novel, funny joke know

Amazing. I have never witnessed anything so pathetic, or such a level of projection. Thanks for exhibiting that buddy, it was quite a show.

Lol. If you weren't just repeating bullshit, why isn't information about the Assange series being funded by RT reflected on these sites? You have given me a line in an article that came out before the series aired, got upset and n

You could retreat into invective or you could point me to a better source than an article that came out before the show even aired. Assange has enough fuming and frustrated detractors that a verifiable source saying his show was funded by R

As I mentioned they were in the middle of one of the biggest releases in their history, the submitted documents didn't look interesting and indeed when they were published nobody cared. Do you know what they were? Publishers won't

According to the article you link which was posted before the series aired, but not according to IMDB or Wikipedia which anybody could have edited with sources in the 12 years since: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2223847

Wikileaks had no "gig" with Russia Today. They produced the series tthemselves and it was picked up by various news channels - just not any mainstream Western ones (what a shock)

It isn't made up. It was during one of the email leaks when the org was stretched to it's limits. Suddenly they get these documents that they don't have time to fully parse and don't look very interesting anyway. Immedia

What foreign ideas? All I see from Tik Tok are increasingly bizarre bids for attention primarily by Americans themselves.

It would be nice if companies like this gave a significant benefit for returning cartridges, especially given the enormous markup on the detergent. 25 or even 50 percent off if you send your empty cartridges back. They would still extract t

"Ah, but what about Spain? Orwell put his life fighting for POUM in the Spanish Civil War. He got himself shot in the neck-pretty high risks for a phony socialist. How do I explain that one? Actually, it’s simple. Orwell went to Spain

Seems like Mitchell could easily offer the offending cabinet for anybody to examine. But really it seems like there was never any question whether he was going to do that.
