I used to pay for this. Started a long time ago, when YouTube's content was... well, better. But now they're pushing EVERYTHING towards "Shorts" and it's pure garbage. Not only does it NOT curate for the people watching it, like how many times do I have to say "not intereste", "don't show me this channel anymore," or just fucking report channels for their "algorithm" to get a clue. AI being spammed left and right, and they claim they can't do shit about it, meanwhile, you whistle 3 seconds of a Nintendo song and your channel already has a strike against it.

The amount of content farms that's just pulling crap from reddit, putting dumb pointless videos behind it, while AI reads a made-up story. The amount of content where it's just some fucker who's just staring at the screen like a creepy fucker, meanwhile something from the MCU plays in the background... they're adding nothing. Or the pre-recorded "masked" heads (like Spider-Man, Iron Man, etc.) randomly gesturing at... fuck all.

People used to make things. YouTube had content. Not saying it was all great. Since TikTok got big, I feel like YT chasing after them things started to go downhill. And then "AI" comes out and the quality just fucking tanks.

I don't pay for YT Premium anymore. PiHole + AdBlock is used everywhere now. And if a YouTuber promotes anything, literally, fuck that product/company as well. Fucking scorch earth on all those fucking advertisers and the algorithm.

If the fine is less than the profit they think they're get, I could see them doing it. Especially for a game about "crime". They've been going out of their way to build max hype to push a $100 game (because the $80 "Gta6 Diet" edition is a joke, just to say "we offered it at less than $100").

I ain't seen nothing.

I ain't seen nothing.

Matter of fact, I'm blind in my left eye and 43% blind in my right eye. I don't see much of nothin'. Matter of fact, I can't even see you sir.

I believe it's some sort of clip editor. I have no idea the name though

You're not wrong. Swatting in that area is going to be so easy. United States police force has already shown for years now that if AI says anything they'll just go with it and not question it. So if someone lives in the area and you want them 'dealt with' by the police, it's going to be very easy. And the police aren't going to look into it or hold themselves accountable. And the AI won't be questioned or removed. If this goes large scale you can just make an API... Don't like someone on twitch, well when you know it there will be an app for that...

Packer/Terraform for all VM's on all providers

Not true. You still very much have contracts with those companies be it RHEL or Ubuntu. It's less don't get me wrong, but not free. Like your small local shop could get away with it, but once you have regulatory oversight, things change.

I make golden images for Windows at work. Everything Microsoft annoys/pissed me off.

Not the be that prick, but how? If there's an active shooter, you're not bulletproof just because you're a parent. Or are you storming in and going to start shooting yourself? Really curious what your plan is.

Ah yes, let's flood the 911 lines with panicked kids and then their parents too. Making sure no other emergencies can call 911. Isn't it great every single other type of emergency a person can have will magically be put on hold until the school situation is cleared up...

Oh, and there's going to be some kids who will think they need to give regular updates, so they'd likely put themselves in danger in order to "just help"

Can you offer ideas of what is gay crime?

Want to make sure it's not just regular crime.

I mean I'm not gay but I might be down for some gay crime.
