I wonder if either of them are actually the correct scene.

“This company is too cheap to pay someone for a proper advertisement.”

Using AI like this seems like a counter productive way to build brand awareness.

Sounds better than age verification… oh wait.

Hasn’t he also said some weird stuff about sex with kids too? The type of stuff that you would hear from a nerd on Reddit when age of consent comes up.

Remember that my original comment was pointing out that YouTubers would flip out if they switched to this metric.

I agree with you.

Yeah, you can infer it.

But no one is making a thank you video because they reached a weekly active users metric.

Weekly active users.

Also, just show the new stat. No need to hide the subscriber total.

That’s news to me. They took away subscriber numbers? YouTubers still talk about them.

And this is the number behind the plaques they send out to people. I can’t image them stopping that. They won’t send plaques based on weekly average activity numbers.

It was at least in part a piracy site. Everything was uploaded by users. It was a piracy site in the same sense that early music content on YouTube was. It was mostly users uploading in the early years. This is why there was a massive lawsuit against YouTube back then. And why we got content ID, etc.

This also often meant the audio compression was random, and sometimes terrible. On grooveshark and YouTube. And on YouTube the native bitrates were terrible 2006-2010 or so.

Your mom was right. But she was probally wrong about it spreading malware.

lol, watch YouTube do the same and creators flip the fuck out.

Yeah, this is a remnant of Wikipedia supporting mobile devices really early.

No shade intended! Just memeing with 90s memes!

Frankly, it’s a bit insufferable at times. For me, Lemmy really put into focus how we all sound, myself included, at times (most of the time). We need a more diverse mix of people around here!

This is why I’m fine paying for iCloud backups. ducks out of the way

Cool

I still follow my early IRC friends on social media. It feels like most of them went on to be successful in the tech world. That wasn’t my path tho.

I just heard someone on a podcast calling Palm Pilots shitty porto-e-readers the other day.

Some critics of the industry have warned that the frenzy around tokenization could introduce new systemic risks, especially in the absence of stringent regulation. In July, Hester Peirce, a commissioner at the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission who has frequently spoken positively about cryptocurrency, said tokenized securities would not be able to circumvent existing securities laws.

“Systemic” is a banned word these days. But the current people in charge love systemic issues. They just don’t want you to clearly label them as such. Systemic issues disproportionately impact lower classes and minorities.

This is why the word “woke” Had to be destroyed and turned into the non-word it is today.

Oy, even when ad blockers are working well it brings up overlays and bullshit.
