Notifications are overrated. I turn them off for the bulk of apps.
Devote one or two small time windows each day for life admin. Outside those windows it shouldn’t be seen or heard.

When is the company axing search?
The purpose of the piece is to smear the notion of individual control and development of AI tools. It’s known as ‘running propaganda’.
I’m happy with outgroup x being able to develop their own AIs, because that means I’m able to develop AIs too.
Staggeringly naive, tbh. Your profession will be made obsolete as a self-sustaining for-profit enterprise either way. The difference is that the tooling can either be owned exclusively by megacorp, or it can be owned by people.
It’s better to be a bard relying on the charity and small custom of others than a literal sharecropper fueling Universal’s proprietary model for next to nothing. At least in the former case you’re free.
Advertisers working in your native language cannot hijack your attention when foreign language videos are running. Subtitling facilitates that, and encourages site activity that differs from consumption, such as broadening one’s horizons and being inquisitive about the real world.
This one’s always displeased me. Triangle Face levels of displeasure.
So long as it’s publicly accessible, Youtube has ‘plausible credibility’ when it talks to advertisers about impression numbers. Remember, we’re not the only party YT fucks.

On the plus side, UBO only had to block one script (on the login page at least).
How many Youtube employees would be assigned to frontend/adblock sabotage efforts? I’m wondering whether the law of diminishing returns will be observed, or will the company have sufficient resources to maintain the shenanigans indefinitely.
If it’s the latter, Youtube can rest assured my resolve will match theirs, until the damned thing gets paywalled…
Who gives a fuck? It’s a funny meme.
You’ll soon be able to include MS itself in that designation.
Your Microsoft account has been suspended. We’ll need some additional information from you to get you back on your feet.

The ‘as soon as Windows 10 can’t x I’m off to Linux!’ refrain is so routine in our circles it’s practically a meme. All someone says when they pontificate like this is that their true priority is can kicking rather than action.
If you had any real intention of making the shift, you’d have done so already. Protip: You know I’m right!

As an experiment, take any remux from your collection and encode it by dividing the raw video bitrate by 2.5

The end goal for this meme is getting a nebula named after Chalmers.
Context is king. If there’s vital/time-dependent correspondence you’re waiting on, notifications can matter. But email in 2024 is pretty darn transactional, in which case a daily check is enough for most. Notifications for something suggest that I need to drop what I’m doing and attend to whatever arrived. That just doesn’t apply for service provider marketing, purchase receipts, etc.
