If Google wasn’t so blatantly malicious in their advertising practices then I would gladly pay for YouTube premium. However, their current business model of “take any and every bit of data on them to sell more product” is morally repugnant. Subsequently, I feel no shame in blocking ads and using invidious to avoid giving them even a cent of revenue.
His physical security video after the CTO of square died was not great. It felt too soon to be using his death to spread a message, and it relies far too heavily on the hypothetical idea that a gun could have saved him from harm. I understand that yes, a gun may have been able to prevent the attack, but it felt sort of ridiculous to insinuate that a gun is necessary to avoid a situation like this.

Yeah, I like his content mostly, but he has had a few braindead non-privacy-related takes
I’m not sure about their response, but I’ve had success using it with a usb adapter to play couch coop on a tv without needing a dedicated console.
I like Vivaldi a lot more than any other browser, but I just can’t justify using a chromium based browser at this point.
Limited capabilities? I haven’t found a game in my library it couldn’t play locally. The ui is great, the controls work well, and it can even be used to run desktop apps.
It used to. They paywalled it with YouTube premium.
I’m not sure what it could be, since I never get double inspected the same way twice in a row. I’ve had devices swabbed for chemicals, pat-downs, being made to walk through the metal detector multiple times (3+), and even standing still while a bomb-sniffing dog walked in circles round me.
Wow, I guess I’m not the only one this has happened to. I’ve been inspected or forced to jump through some additional hoop 90% of the times I’ve gone through airport security. It has been going on for as long as I remember, and happens regardless of which country I’m in.
Hollow Knight (Great metroidvania, even better soundtrack), Journey (It’s just good. I struggle to describe it any other way), Project: Wingman (Neat game about blowing things up in planes. Has a fun, dramatic soundtrack.), Cassette Beasts (An open world monster catching rpg like Pokémon. The soundtrack is good, although some people aren’t fans of the lyrics.), Cloudpunk (A cyberpunk open-world exploration game. Really great ost to match the theme. Also, the game has exceptional story, especially the City of Ghosts expansion.)
Edit: Add explanations
I’ve been using a fun read-it-later app called Omnivore. It has a great ad-free reader view, and it even supports saving lemmy posts.
It opens Firefox. They’re complaining about nothing.
Is the background of the image just the google image results for “instagram logo”?
I’ve just wishlisted Shadows of Doubt. Seems interesting.
I’ve been playing a handful of games:
Demon’s Tilt: an excellent pinball game that runs great on the Deck. Also, the pixel art is very nice.
Hades: a great roguelike, finishing the last few side quests now.
Void Scrappers: a fun little survivors-like. Cheap and addictive.
Cassette Beasts: similar to Pokémon, if Pokémon had actually innovated in the last few years. Awesome mechanics, and all the battles are doubles matches.
Good to hear about more people playing Hollow Knight. It’s excellent, and I highly recommend avoiding story spoilers until you’ve finished the main quests.
Do you have a source? The only notable investment of his I’m aware of is framework.
How is it even possible to use the wrong GPU when the correct one is in the same box. That makes it seem malicious rather than foolish.
It’s a solid point, but VPN companies have violated “no logs” policies in the past.
Agreed. The ultimate is great, and the charging dock is super convenient
