YouTube has already been helpful to a degree. Sometimes I’ll open their AI summarize and it will give all the details along with timestamps. There are videos where I saw the summary and passed on watching because the video was mostly filler material.

I’m in the same boat. USA here and only the initial start menu tiles had junk but removed them long ago. Next time I go on my computer I’ll look closer. Maybe my brain just auto filters ads out at this point.

Does Texas become open season or would war have to be declared? Mainly I don’t want to join/get drafted but I’m down to fuck around.

Every commercial I see is companies giving iPhones away for free. It’s now at a point where I had to pay extra to avoid getting an iPhone.

I love the analogy if your loved one was being held at gun point, would you support the police firing through your loved one to kill the criminal? Yeah criminal is dead but like wtf.

Hey someone is robbing a bank, better blow it up. The customers and workers will die but at least we got the bank robber.

Logic falls apart when you realize swastikas are still common in asian countries. Don’t let the terrorists win.

I have a glitch where Max thinks I’m paying my provider but I don’t have an active subscription with my provider. Happened after the max name change. Been enjoying free for about a year now. I’m wondering which tier I’ll get or if the glitch will fix itself.

YouTube lived off venture capital, search sponsorships, and content hosting. Venture capital is long dried up. Search sponsorships are just advertisements but clogging your searches. Content hosting isn’t really needed anymore since every large media company has their own streaming platform. Lot has changed since 2006.

How long back did you use Nord? Their Lynx protocol works very well and never had issues. I’m planning to switch to Proton mainly due to cost saving. Cancelled my subscription to Nord and it’s just a button on the website. Feels the Nord hate is overblown. Would I recommend it to someone doing serious stuff where a leaked ip could mean literal death? No way. But would I trust any VPN out there with my life? Not a chance.

I’ll take YouTube over any other streaming service. With how much I consume of Youtube, only felt right to pay. Practically my cable at this point.
