There are, unfortunately, tons of these these days. I usually figure it out halfway through the video and block the channel, but it wastes a lot of time. Same with the stuff Facebook recommends to me, most of it ends up being AI generated images these days.

Time to stop using this standard.

Ah didn't know it was in the App Store now. Good. Thanks.

How will this affect the Lemmy client Voyager? Is it considered a web app? My understanding was that it was.

Yes only the very top model. But get this. They shipped it with a USB 2.0 only cable. You know, just to stick the knife in a little bit anyway. Those guys sure know how to make a joke.

It's hilarious how Apple still insists on making all their mobile devices USB 2. Have they not cracked the code for USB 3 after 11 years?

Yeah if you buy good games they have a much better cost to entertainment ratios than having a bunch of streaming services do. It's the games I end up not liking that ruin it.

I'm using this streaming service called Sonarr+plex. No ads so far.

I think if you made billions in tech, you always qualify. To some degree even more after you stop working and still can't find time to do anything beneficial for the world.

If royalties are paid, in most cases the artist will get some. How much depends on the contract he signed. I agree it's not a great system. I'd like to see some direct licensing with the artist rather than what we have today, but something is still better than nothing.

I always try to buy subscriptions with PayPal for this reason. Because buried in their UI you can go turn off the automatic payments to that payee. They usually cancel the subscription themselves if you stop paying them.

I'd rather artists get paid personally.
