What was "the incident" at your work place? in c/[email protected]
Youtube is broken, again in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

you make me think i might, who knows. It looks and feels as a half-blocked element by something tho. The lay-over pop-up thing is getting thru, it's content is not. Now I found out that I can "click" some of the whiteness (turns into a hand), but don't know what I'ld be agreeing to.

First there's this: which the only option is "review options". There is no "close it for now" or whatever. It's not a choice but a command.

Some Google services are not linked Choose whether to share your data across YouTube and other Google services

Review choices

If clicking the review choices, I get a blank window with some "ghost elements" and when I inspect some of these it for example says "yes, link". But I'ld rather not. Tried turning off all my extensions and refreshing but that still didn't render it readable to me.

Yeah i used to do that. Then i got hooked by how easy it became to just stream all the time. Local made me feel like i got stuck on the same music after a while a bit too much, and getting new music required effort. I became lazy.

Youtube is broken, again (sh.itjust.works)
 

Use UBlock, sponsorblock, firefox, etc. Recently it broke again, some stupid permission to connect youtube to other google services pop-up is permablocking it and I can't be bothered investigating.

Go to FreeTube cause why not. Works rather well for how it works. Especially for listening to albums it is fine, for video it's often too slow.

They found a way to inject bullshit in there too, now? And basically everywhere.

Albums are sometimes uploaded as 1 long video. Those are fun. Often they're uploaded as all songs seperately and then there's a playlist which makes it 'the album'. They used to be okay too.

Not anymore. People started injecting bullshit videos within the playlists. No, Andrew fucking Tates bullshit is not part of this album. Fuuuu. ANDREW I CAN'T STAY FUCKING MOTIVATED BECAUSE SOME ARSEHOLE INJECTED YOUR BULLSHIT VIDEO INTO THE MUSIC PLAYLIST I'LD LIKE TO LISTEN TO WITHOUT YOUR BULLSHIT INTERRUPTIONS!

I need to work on permanently replacing youtube. It no longer serves its purpose (for me of listening to albums) reliably.

I dislike the fact even more then the idea.

Called a bank recently.

They: "please say in a word the subject your call is about so we can immediately connect you to the right department "

Me: "LOAN"

They: you said "limits on your cards", 1 for yes 2 for no

I tried 3 times, gave up. They won, I guess.

Been using searx a bit recently and it often is the 1 thing I'm looking for as the top result.

After some decades they just become so incredibly gross no one without a hazmat suit would try cleaning it again, so they're replaced.

That's already the case. Facebook etc have been walled gardens (or prisons if you prefer) for decade and a half now.

Budgeting? White PVC windows are cheapest, you pay extra for colors.
