Head to 4chan: /r/ Requests and /t/ Torrents. Good magnet link trade there.

Vendors should be entitled to withdraw support on particular hardware, but they shouldn't be allowed to brick the service as a result 'just because'. All it needs is a TOS/EULA update prompt advising that viewers with X hardware are on their own as of now. I'd be willing to bet this denial of service practice originates in kickback discussions between TV manufacturers and streamers.

It strikes me as another case where corporate can inculcate learned helplessness in the customer by having him think disallowing and withdrawing support for are indivisible.

In a letter written to X's head of global government affairs Nick Pickles on April 17, the CBC said their label was "factually incorrect" because the government doesn't have involvement in CBC's editorial decisions.

Many public broadcasters are set up so that their governance is done at 'arms-length' from the sitting government. The problem is that the mechanisms used to achieve this (usually a government-appointed board of directors, a parliamentary committee, etc.) often intervene in coverage on behalf of an annoyed government, including threats to litigate against the entity, termination threats against the director or other personnel, tabling of targeted legislation designed to make the entity's life worse, etc. These governance bodies are kind of like car brakes made of balsa wood: rock solid when not in use, then a pile of sawdust during the organization's time of need.

For that reason I'm happy with X's label, even though I value public broadcasting, because history has shown executive government tends to issue marching orders to media (no matter their 'independence') whenever it feels that getting its way is particularly vital. The motive for the label may be ideological given Musk's record, but it has some utility to the reader in that it reminds them of a broader, awkward truth about government funding.

(I think the general media's shunning of X has a certain coordination about it, and that it's really about sector-felt resentment rather than engagement metrics. The metrics stuff is just noise, and likely explains the refusal to disclose the engagement figures mentioned in the article. Musk to them is a foreign occupier, and they are the underground resistance, withholding their content/advertising dollars, determined to undermine his efforts to reforge Twitter to X and ensure they get 'their' platform back.)

If OP takes the Soulpill, I offer some tips:

• Don't despair if search results carry a [private] prefix. Some of these people just got frustrated once upon a time and decided to whitelist peers rather than blacklist. Often they just want a polite PM asking for access. It pays to be inquisitive, so check their User Info for information.
• Chat rooms don't need to be occupied to obtain or download search results. In fact it's usually better to ignore them.
• 99 per cent of users would rather you share 3 albums than 500 system files.

Yeah, better to stay on Youtube and Reddit and Xitter, where there's no propaganda. Odysee's content range might accommodate the moderate centre better if people started using it. And we can't have that!

The existence of the paid offering doesn't invalidate use of the free offering, regardless of whether people are permitting ads on the latter. Any given Youtube page is just a collection of web elements and a call to a video server: these things get loaded or blocked at my sole discretion. My hardware, my web browser, my internet bandwidth, my opsec, my time.

If I put household items out on the nature strip, I have no expectation that passers-by will have a cup of tea with me first, then take every item as an indivisible lot. So my proposal to Google is: take those items off the nature strip, put them back inside the house and lock the door. Until they do that, no issue exists, despite the company's efforts to fabricate one.

You should refer her to Cory Doctorow's writing, namely his concept of enshittification. He's one of the most effective political communicators alive today. If anyone can get her to understand the import of the issues surrounding Reddit's Simple Jack routine, it's him.

Does Australia not have anti-SLAPP legislation of any sort?

KDE Neon, AM4 platform. GPU is 8 years old. The freeze event commonly happens when Firefox with 10 to 15 tabs open is the active application, and mouse movement is present.

Perhaps it's a swap issue?

Towels.

Nah just kidding. It was cutlery.
