HughJanus,

Shows like this should have zero input from executives. If you are not willing to let the show have free rein, you don’t deserve to host the show.

What if the talent wants to glorify pedophiles?

HughJanus,

in my opinion the less people have your information the better.

Yeah that’s kinda the point…

HughJanus,

This. If I’m required to give up all my personal info I might as well get some cash back and all the other CC benefits.

HughJanus,

They won’t. It’ll break and you won’t be able to repair it before then.

HughJanus,

I don’t believe the small phone gang is small, we just have one option: a pretty expensive iPhone mini.

You have it backwards. You have no options because your gang is too small. You used to have options but the market has moved far far away from that.

HughJanus,

almost as if there IS demand for small phones…

There is but the demand is small. The smaller the demand gets, the more they flock to whatever options are available.

HughJanus,

Not true. Many of the smaller phones on the market have additional features that the bigger ones don’t. Or at least they used to when they existed.

HughJanus,

It looks like the future promised in 1984, if that’s what you were referring to.

HughJanus,

You’re not paying to see ads. They’re just subsidizing the cost of the service.

HughJanus,

Or maybe you don’t give a shit about what you’re “known as”?

Or maybe the intention is that no one sees you drinking out of it?

Maybe you just want to avoid paying the completely unjustified scam 1000% markup for drinks at venues?

HughJanus,

Streamable? You can also run your videos through 8mb.video and it will compress them to 100mb. That’s what I usually do.

HughJanus,

reduces my loyalty to the platform

Why the fuck would you have any loyalty to Apple? They sure as shit don’t have any loyalty to their customers. In fact they piss in the face of their customers and tell them it’s raining.

HughJanus,

Yeah I’m not gonna lie, their streaming platform is incredible but I ain’t giving them any money LOL

HughJanus,

Insert South Park Disney Mickey Mouse China meme

Big props to John for walking away.

HughJanus,

It does them very poorly

HughJanus,

“open source” is a self explanatory phrase. The source code is open, therefore it’s open source.

HughJanus,

Publishing on iOS creates a whole plethora of hurdles because everything you install has to first be approved by Apple. This is an Apple problem. The founder of the company has said he doesn’t like developing for iOS for this reason.

HughJanus,

That’s the exact opposite of what most people want from an app like this.

HughJanus,

STN has a huge privacy problem in that it has to be connected to a Google account.

HughJanus,

Rossmann has a millionaire backing up his repair business

Billionaire, actually.

So, is some of this being funded by that person and other investors of FUTO or is our money the only thing keeping this afloat?

The billionaire (Eron Wulf) is also the founder of FUTO. They don’t have investors.

HughJanus,

There are several "new YouTube"s. The problem is getting people to transition to them. And this is intended to do exactly that.

HughJanus,

You don’t need to bypass anything. You can just not pay and the app will continue functioning just fine.

It’s the WinRAR model.

HughJanus,

If you open your subscriptions JSON, it will just open in the app and start loading your subs.

HughJanus,

Then just… don’t use those platforms? If you’re so afraid they’ll convert you.

HughJanus,

If you have people living in your mirrors at home, you have much bigger problems than I can help you with, sorry.

HughJanus,

Exactly

HughJanus,

Been running it at 1080p no problem for several days.

HughJanus,

Technically open source in what definition?

By the literal definition of source code that is open.

HughJanus,

Stop using Google products, people. There are alternatives for every service they offer.

Unfortunately many of the products they offer are a requirement for daily life.

HughJanus,

So, I have a few solutions for this.

First, I use GrapheneOS, so I can continue using Gboard and a few other Google products that do not warrant or require an internet connection, with network access disabled.

Alternatively, the next best keyboard is grammarly (also with network access dsiabled) and you can also use voiceinput.futo.org with that one.

HughJanus,

Yes, thank you for pointing that out

HughJanus,

It’s actually because the Tensor chip is the most secure one available, and because Google promises several years of software updates, with a solid history to back it up.

grapheneos.org/faq#future-devices

HughJanus,

Wait until you hear about the listening devices that 90% of people carry around in their pockets everywhere they go.

HughJanus,

Don’t forget Threads

HughJanus,

Most Newspapers trade on their credibility

BWAAAAAAHAHAHA!

HughJanus,

Regardless of whether he is a “good guy” or not, he’s very obviously experiencing cognitive decline.

HughJanus, (edited )

Yeah I’m not looking to make any whataboutisms here…

As you said, the bar is low.

HughJanus,

I don’t think it’s racism, just a school with fucking insane rules that should never be allowed:

Barbers Hill Independent School District prohibits male students from having hair extending below the eyebrows, ear lobes or top of a T-shirt collar, according to the student handbook. Additionally, hair on all students must be clean, well-groomed, geometrical and not an unnatural color or variation. The school does not require uniforms.

Why the fuck schools give a single shit about how kids dress themselves or wear their hair is beyond me.

HughJanus, (edited )

That’s because only a very small percentage of creators get enough views to make tangible amounts of money…probably the same ones you actually watch.

HughJanus,

FreeTube uses Invidious proxy (if enabled).

Newpipe uses Piped proxy.

HughJanus,

I mean I have >200 subscriptions so that would get expensive quickly.

HughJanus, (edited )

Unfortunately Proton has very limited support for Linux.

If you installed via the Discover Store, you probably installed the old, unofficial Flatpak version that hasn’t been updated in over a year.

Proton actually JUST released a new “stable” Linux client. Here is the link with instructions to install via the Arch repository: protonvpn.com/…/official-linux-client-arch/

Unfortunately you DO have to use the terminal to install it.

Alternatively you can do what I did and buy a gl.inet router which comes with OpenWRT pre-installed and it’s an absolute breeze to get a VPN managing traffic on your router directly across your entire network and not having to fuck with that shitty Linux client ever again.

HughJanus,

Providing Wireguard configs is what you consider “complete support”?

HughJanus,

Weird because most everyone else expects a client from which to configure said connections as needed without downloading and uploading a thousand configurations every time a server is retired.

HughJanus,

Bro I grew up watching Matilda and Alex Mack so yeah but also nah

HughJanus,

What?

HughJanus,

I don’t need “spoon feeding”. I just need a torrent site that doesn’t have literally every button redirect to ads.

HughJanus,

Wow Steam actually got almost all of these 🤣
