Even without ads, the act of showing videos mid-conversation has never been a smooth interaction IME. Best not to fumble with devices while trying to talk with somebody.

Ew, why would I allow my system to create traffic to Google controlled infrastructure?
Much of it is just functionality by way of ffmpeg, which is also an excellent program.
It sounds like you were on the end of the chain in a game of telephone.
When Fred Trump III asked his uncle Donald Trump for money to help with his disabled son’s medical care, he says the former U.S. president suggested letting the young man die instead.
I could see how politicized media could morph that into “disabled people should just die” for clicks, though.
Using workarounds to attempt to get foreign software running on an operating system for which is was never built is always going to be fraught with problems.
If the game isn’t distributed compiled for your platform, then you are a second class citizen and no amount of API wrappers, translation layers, VMs or whatever will ever address the core issue.
Running a game in Proton (Wine) is not playing on Linux. It is your linux environment contorting itself and doing miraculous back flips in the hope of convincingly coaxing the Windows binary game into thinking that it is running on an actual Windows host.
Soft solution: Purchase games that are properly developed and released targeting your platform natively.
Hard solution: Graduate from playing games and move on with your life. (btw mine improved a lot after putting gaming behind me for good. + I can now use whatever computer hardware and software I damn well please)
Fuck Putin, by the way.
Captain, we’re being scanned!
Fun side note: When I’d remoted into our medical client’s workstations, there were more than a handful of occasions where the recipient on the other end had only just finished frantically closing out Netflix tabs.
Things like this make me hope very much that I my physical health holds out for decades to come.
Why do conservatives believe gay, trans, black, brown, Liberals, and the disabled deserve to die?
I have to constantly remind myself that the average user today cannot tell the difference between a search engine and a web browser.
And we have the URL bar pulling double duty as a search engine entry form to thank for that.
Nobody has really answered the last part of my question. I’m not asking whether or not this is ethical, I’m asking how can I keep the employees who don’t leave in a state of perception where they think I’m ready to fire and replace them at any moment. I don’t want them to realize their position and leverage it against me.
I’ve been thinking about holding the promise of upping wage by a dollar and to keep pushing out the date as means of helping them realize how easy their work is. I’m not going to allow non-committed hires to devour the value of my business over what amounts to easy work. They know it’s easy work.
I don’t appreciate the sarcasm. Things have become tight. And after some knuckleheads couldn’t handle basic tasks in a basic industry, I have found we are able to operate with just half of the staff I used to pay. The ones who stick around know their worth.
What I’m worried about is that the remainder will also try an leave, knowing that I rely on them more than ever before. So my angle is to obfuscate the fact that I actually need them. How do I make sure they can’t read me on that?

I’ll interpret that as: proprietary software

Without investigating any further, I can say that I certainly wouldn’t trust it.
I’ve been using youtube-dl and later yt-dlp for years now without issues.
Price your goods right up to what the market can bear. Business sense.
Before I migrated, I had devised elaborate lists of programs and things I thought I would always want with me. But now, years later, looking back I realize that most of those list items had been replaced by new stuff that I found I like even better, or simply dropped from my routine altogether as I grew to realize they weren’t actually all that essential.
Just allowing sites to deliver and execute js by default is insane. This is why every pirate should have a javascript blocking tool in their tool set.
Schneider Electric APC Back-UPS 1500VA, 900W.
They power on self-test okay, but go on to just fail to switchover during outages. I’m still trying to figure out if it is a factor of cumulative time, running hours, or they’re only good for a fixed number of power failures. And whether its the battery or the UPS device itself.
It feels like crashing your car, and then the airbags go off after you’re already mangled and bleeding out.
Amazon, Apple, Comcast, Disney, Fox, HBO, Hulu, MGM, NBCUniversal, Netflix, Paramount, Sony, and Warner Bros.
Joke’s on you MPA, I don’t watch any modern trash produced by these “entertainment” companies.
LXQt is developing nicely, but does not yet have wayland by default.
