lol I remember watching that

I imagine what they earn depends on how many ad impressions they get.

no don’t ruin the romance for me 😭

maybe I’m sappy, but the idea of trolley cars seems romantic to me. the little ding ding of their bell as they roll along. I’ve never heard of anyone having a bad day while taking a trolley ride.

I mean, it would be pretty based if he did say it, but this seems quite a bit less charismatic than he usually is. and I also could not find any story matching this quote when I searched.

did he actually say this tho?

makes zero sense

that about sums up religion in general, well done. I think that about wraps the thread up, honestly. good work, everyone!

is it OK to let little kids starve when you can feed them and clean up the environment at the same time? and what’s with this quotation marks around the word earn? that’s some privileged bullshit from somebody who has clearly never been hungry or homeless.

the guides who make their living taking people up the mountain would be out of a job. the industry supports thousands of people, shutting it down would mean those families and their children would starve.

creators get paid for views.

that’s not exactly true. creators get paid for ad impressions, not for views. a client like Freetube or Libretube does not view any ads, so the creators do not get paid.

this is why some frontends and browser extensions allow you to allowlist certain channels, so that they get paid for your watching their content.

the best kind of racist.

these are people running from the war? if so, why not give them actual citizenship? they clearly do not want to live in Russia anymore, and I can’t blame them.

wild that the only reason he knows or cares about the violence in Nigeria is because he saw something about it on Fox News.

Yes, pretty much any Linux distro can be configured to encrypt just the home directory. Whole drive encryption is more common because it’s more secure, obviously.

That would be the easiest solution, since it’s offered during install with many distros.

Encrypt whole hard drive?
Yes.

Log in automatically?
Yes.

I started it late and haven’t finished it yet, but I’m liking it a lot so far. I wouldn’t mind more shows like this.

That’s going to make running anything on Windows rather uncomfortable.
