Due to the severity of the situation and the fast flowing news cycle, we have decided to create a general megathread for discussion regarding the conflict....
First reddit didn’t go down, despite having an user base which had some kind of a brain.
While YouTube has everyone as users. Even like the most normie, boomer, zoomer users that think YouTube is the internet. No way they are going to switch for ideological reasons, unless the app just stops working.
I wouldn’t really mind a smaller pool of videos, if it’s guaranteed to have a standard of quality.
I’d even pay for YouTube if they offered such a service, where they curate their creators. E.g. I sometimes like to watch repair channels where someone tinkers with something. I have a handful of channels that I like for that… but what if there are many more that I just can’t find?
In my experience they seem to do, at least at their workplace. I’ve never heard a man complain about their coworkers in some mean way… But most women I know do actively complain about them…
So I’ve been using youtube ad blockers since pretty much when ad blocker extensions were first available. Lately though I’ve been getting hit more and more with these messages that YT was sending out every 5 or so videos telling me that adblockers aren’t allowed. No problem, just gotta wait 5 seconds to x it out and then...
Yeah it’s horrible. For it to somehow be worth watching with ads, the ads had to be for a legitimate and relevant product, and the algorithm / video quality had to be much better.
You get ads for actually real products? Literally the only ad for a real thing that is available to me was about a cleaning company for house fassades… but I don’t have a house. Everything else is stupid games or apps, or porn or straight up scams.

Yeah I thought he was at a completely different TVA in a different timeline where Kang was more evil. But no he was just in the past, and now he’s back.
Because at least half of that is homeopathic or “natural” shit… Fuck pharmacies for that!
I once needed eye drops for allergies, and asked my sister to buy me some while she was there, and they fucking gave her expensive water which was literally worse than lubricating eye drops.
The language itself is great, but Microsoft the docs are sometimes horrible or outdated.
And most things feel like magic that you can’t or don’t need to understand. E.g. if you set up a modern asp.net project it’s some huge boilerplate with configuration files and what not…
Also standards often change… E.g. try figuring out what the best GUI framework is to create a full-fledged Desktop app in C#. There’s like a few different ones, and most are for basic mobile-style apps or not really mature. The best I found so far is WPF, which is kinda old though and everyone thinks it’s dead.
Assuming you have one at all, what time do you have your daily stand up meeting? Are there reasons why you have it at that time? Do you like having it at that time?
Also availability. Nowadays you can buy stocks for free on your phone… 20 years ago you had to physically go to your bank, pay extremely high fees, and probably get scammed into buying some expensive fund because you didn’t have the possibility to easily research stuff on your own…
