After scrolling for a bit I saw that Grayjay had a desktop app now too. No need for ad blockers etc. Just use Grayjay! It’s awesome! (no yt shorts cancer for example, and multi platform support so not just yt) Grayjay.app

Everyone know that.

It’s not 1 way traffic. Signals go both ways. What to increase your wifi speeds, have 1 fan blow from your router to your device and 1 fan from your device blow towards your router. Signals go faster in warm air so make sure to pump up the thermostat. It also goes faster with less CO2 in the air so make sure to open all windows (unless you own a Mac). Lower moisture in the air also improves speeds, so turn your AC on max. Also placing both your router and device in rice helps.

So what, Google? You violate my privacy, I violate your terms of service, I’d say we’re even.
I don’t think they can actually have an ad blocker installed on your machine be a violation of their terms of service. It’s on your device. It’s like Ford would say driving one of their models with a green shirt is a violation of their terms of service. What’s next, your camera will be monitored by Google and you violate their terms of service if you turn your head away whenever an ad is playing? Well, yeah, they wanted to pause ads when your eyes would turn away from the screen, so they really are that evil.
Google was such a nice company at first, now it’s pure evil. Just like all the other mega corps. Open source and Piracy is the future.

Baldurs gate 3 doesn’t need mods. There’s also no one stopping you when walking into a sex toy shop in cyberpunk after configuring your breasts and penis size (because you can have both), without mods. And boy do they have some nice toys.

Nice math. Makes more sense then imperial, for sure. That’s a lot of bananas, might as well go drive a banana car

Everything in the cloud is their property. And everything works in the cloud, so. Yeah. Cloud software is awesome. Pay per month, everything you make isn’t your property. It’s double penetration without lube, while all you wanted to do is some photo editing or illustrating.
Piracy is the answer. Back in the days you would miss out on things when pirating, compared to the purchased version. Now you’re missing out when you pay, compared to piracy. Why would I pay to have more restrictions and less rights then when I pirate for free? When I get caught with an illegal copy of photoshop, whatever I created will still be my property. I’ll get a fine, but still have more rights then a paying customer.
It’s a fucking dystopian world we live in.
If the person who died in Disneyland due to their allergy never used Disney+ but would have illegally downloaded a Disney movie instead, the lawsuit wouldn’t have been rejected by Disney as they never lost their rights by agreeing to their terms of service.
I rather have the risk to get a fine for illegal downloading then to pay to lose my rights.
So whenever there’s an open source project, no matter how imperfect it may be, to help people achieve their goal without mega corporate rape, I wouldn’t dare say anything bad about it. I don’t want to pirate, I feel like I have no choice and open source projects like Gimp are a great alternative. Also, I don’t mind paying for something if it would become my property and I would keep my rights and privacy.

A car tire can take as much pressure as 97 peasants per square holy hell

If you don’t like it, buy a photoshop subscription instead, it’s a heap of big corporate greed, money drain intended, functional, held together with ai features and licensing scams full effort.

Their excuse is monnney. Look at Twitter, people are pulling their ads because they are not happy with what’s happening there. Keep the people who give you money happy and everything is fine. No matter if you would have to sell your soul (like Disney in China, to not get banned and miss millions of subscribers). Since the ad companies usually are big corporate, you can imagine what reddit their stance is.

- Comment on Should we create a new political party in the US, specifically for shitting on the rich? 1 week ago:
Since criminals can be president now, I think Joe Exotic should be president. Make America exotic again!
People don’t want to empower the workers and take away money and power from billionaires. Bernie Sanders already tried this but it’s not how America works and what Americans want.
With the current system, every new party will take away votes from the party it’s closest to. This ensures more voting percentage for the opponents. So when you create a socialist party, most of the votes you will get will be from democrats who won’t vote for the democratic party, so it’s easier for the Republicans to win. You just helped the opposite side.
Maybe when you create a party close to the Republicans you can steal their voters so the democrats have a higher chance of winning. Maybe do the same within the democrats to scatter their votes in a way so Bernie will get the majority.

The Japanese are weird. Especially Korg. Their machines always have been quirky, weird and counter intuitive. Really cool though. But weird AF. Their machines are getting more intuitive, but their software is lacking behind.
- Comment on "The **Most open** Operating System" 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, in the 3rd party program I also see my mouse, keyboard, Webcam, headset, external sound card, Bluetooth dongle, etc listed which I need to remove to get my minilogue within the first 10 devices. I just don’t bother anymore, I live with the onboard digital oscillator and effect presets and won’t change any of those. The machine is awesome though, wouldn’t change it for anything. But the software support is so shit I just don’t use it anymore haha
- Comment on "The **Most open** Operating System" 2 weeks ago:
Do you mean USB devices? Because yeah, that’s a Korg thing. Removing the devices doesn’t work for me, I have to delete the data with a 3rd party program, then connect the Korg as one of the first 10 devices while my usb hub is in the back of my synth tower. Next time I boot up my pc, all usb devices are mixed again so big chance the korg is number 23 or something again, making me redo every step. This is why I never have my Minilogue XD updated or why I change banks or effects on it.

Yeah but who cares about Africa and climate, rich white people have stocked up supermarkets with products from around the world. Like New Zealand wine next to Chile wine in stores in France. Like… Ok… Australian mineral water in the Netherlands… With the highest quality tap water ever…
