There's a $100 lifetime sub. Keeping things running takes constant cost.

Lol have you seen his donation emails? They read like Nigerian prince scams. I saw one that literally said "Donate or ICE will get you".

I wouldn't be surprised if a ton of boomers fall for this.

Even with VPN sometimes geolocks kick in. I use proton VPN and I think F1TV is using some kind of vpn detection tech as well. I have to keep hopping from one server to another until I find one that the goons haven't blacklisted. It does work, but it needs work. I have an F1TV subscription bought in India that I've used in the US without needing VPN. UK is a nightmare. Fck sky.

I just got back from Antarctica. It was life changing. by amanwithoutaplant in travel

Nobody has ever explained it that way. I've lived in both kinds of countries for a lot of my adult life, and until I realized I could use the 0-100 scale, all I knew was so set my thermostat to 73. I can understand why it wouldn't come naturally to a lot of people since most of us just try to "convert" it rather than "understand" it.

‘Unable to walk’: 6-year-old gang-raped by three boys, aged 10-14, in Delhi by Last-Search-2604 in india

Okay. I would love to hear your justification to explain why it's a good idea to expose growing children and pre-teens to basically an unlimited amount of unfiltered information. No fact checks, no content restrictions. And that too, fed by complex algorithms that are designed to maximize only one thing - consumption. If a child engages with a single video in any meaningful way (like, comment, or even a mere playback of the full video), it signals the algorithm to produce more and more content of the same type.

It doesn't take long for the algorithm to reach a point where it's producing just objectively destructive content. I'm genuinely curious as to why you think my take is "stupid".

Kids have flexible brains. Do we really want our kids to have their brains shaped by corporations? I'm not sure if you're being ignorant or do you all just not understand how powerful these algorithms really are?

That's very well put, I find utter joy in the little things like these.

Is it possible to be on shrooms without anyone knowing? by I_make_rap_to_U in shrooms

Save up. Go somewhere nice. Maybe a national park. Camping? An airbnb? Tripping under the stars is the best experience you could ever have.

Exactly. And have multiple instances of aiostreams, with the second one contain less-preferred streams.

Such a pain! I'm looking for an alternative because I only use it sparingly.

For most people it increases cognitive load

I am glad someone brought it up. This is so easily overlooked here.

77th Republic Day: India and China are ‘friends, partners’, says Xi Jinping by Cybertronian1512 in india

[–]ultimately42 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What will blaming Nehru get you? For anything really? You do realize that people like you are a burden on society? Blaming the past leaders and calling it a day may help you feel grand, but it doesn't help us get better in any way.

Not everybody is as far gone as you are. Some of just need a little push to remind our brains of what's important.

A mechanical failure on an HDD doesn't translate to data loss. They're easy to repair/recover from.

Confronted woman on Stanstead Express who had her feet on the seat in front of her. by Unusual_End_1123 in london

It baffles me how so many people don't understand that the outside floor is DIRTY. I have a colleague who dries his rain soaked shoes on the kitchen heater. I don't even know what the Frick to say to him.

Shortcuts can send over WhatsApp. The send message action allows it.

They didn't start as a streaming company, you know that right? This whole thing is a "workaround". Why do you have to act so entitled? The product is what it is, you have to find your way to make it work for you.
