  Actually the negation of that implication would be: “I think, and I don’t exist”, and not “I don’t think, therefore I don’t exist”.

  Ok, if I remember correctly, YouTube barely generates, but generates nonetheless revenue for Google. There are many ways to make more money without fucking over its users by cutting costs:

  • downgrade old videos with small watch count to 720p30

  • make people pay for hosting >1080p60 content

  • do not allow private/unlisted videos

  • straight up remove 10h looped videos - they take so much space, but are technically spam - both for bandwidth and storage

  And my go-to solution: focus on sponsorships as main source of revenue. They are the only ads I can tolerate and are actually effective from my experience. YouTube can just take a cut from every sponsorship on YouTube video and everyone will be happy.

  “I’ve never had covid, so it doesn’t exist” vibes.

  No, any documentation >>> GUI. GUI relies on your previous experience with similar environments. Just jump into a GUI of Visual Studio (not code) project configuration and see for yourself.

  Actually ACL on Windows is very bad. Recursively changing owner of directory can take minutes, same operation on any UNIX-like OS takes seconds.
