They have a paid method in place.

YouTube Premium.

Free access you pay with ads.

All of us cheapskates have been using adblock or YouTube vanced to get the service completely free.

I’m not going to curse them for making efforts to stop us leaching their service for free.

Your probably right.

There a completely separate issue though.

Very pleasant person.

The woman was German.

Why would Israel give a shit about these people murdering Germans?

If anyone would be making a measured response it should be Germany.

If it was my daughter being paraded through the streets dead, I wouldn’t be thinking about a very measured response right now. I’d probably be trying to level the entire country.

I bought my wife a 'fake ’ diamond ring for the engagement ring.

She couldn’t tell her snooty friends that though, so she went and bought herself a very expensive ring with real diamonds.

She had the ring I bought her melted into my wedding band. I hate jewellery though so had no intention of wearing it. I agreed to wear it for a week after we got married. I’ve never worn it again. I haven’t even seen it since that first week. Over a decade. I wonder if it’s just lost, or she has it somewhere still.

I don’t care enough to ask.

My employer told us all the rumours were true. Layoffs were happening. They called it “difficult conversations” instead of firings.

About 1/5th of a team of 1000 people.

Apparently they hadn’t decided who yet.

Meanwhile we just received the biggest bonus in the companies history due to historic profits.

Then the CEO told investors that they expect a big pickup early next year and will need to hire a bunch of people to handle the demand.

So they are firing a bunch of people for 6 months to hit financial targets in the back half of the year before hiring people again.

Everyone that is to be fired is still waiting to find out who will be axed.

I have a fucked knee but it has nothing to do with my personality.

I just can’t run.

I still try when I play with the kids and end up limping around for a few days.

I don’t really understand what this image is implying.

This is one of the weirdest statements I’ve ever read.

I don’t like the repair policy of this company so I’m switching to Apple…

Tell me you live in a dark cave without telling me you live in a dark cave.

It definitely flew under the radar. I would say most people have never seen it.

If I lived in a country where this was something to worry about, if worry about it.

It’s not something I’ve ever thought about or considered in Australia.

Sure break-ins happen but violent crimes during break-ins… it’s so rare I’ve never heard of or met anyone that knows of it happening.

100% a scam.

No one is ever getting a product from this.

It’s still a long way off being a millionaire or billionaire.

It’s pretty impressive someone can make that much money in a lifetime.

Yeah, the issue is, the laptop is full of photos. She took it to Apple after I failed to figure it out. They said they can wipe it but not recover the photos.

It’s just a crap system.

I don’t agree with the Mac one.

The Mac UI is basically windows 3.1.

It’s absolutely awful.

Also, windows will never brick your machine because of a full hard drive. My wife has a shitty MacBook air. She filled the drive completely. The OS can no longer function. It boots and that’s it. You can’t open anything, you can’t delete anything. Every single click says free up HDD space, even deleting files.

It’s so fucking bad.

All the renter’s calling for the heads of the upper middle class property owners.

Stop coming after us. We already pay the most tax and get the least benefits from the tax.

We don’t get all the offsets the millionaires get, and we don’t get the handouts the poor get.

We just get gouged everywhere. We don’t know enough to invest in anything other than housing.

Stop coming after us. We aren’t the problem.

I flipped around a few different distros to try them out.

As it currently stands IMO Linux won’t be taking market share from Windows.

I actually think the best use case for Linux is for the very old. People that want their computer to work and never change. They only need a browser and a word processor and email. I considered setting up Mint for my mum’s PC just so its a consistent and solid experience forever.

She likes playing the Windows card games though with the score board so it ruled it out.

I’ve tried several times. I’m pretty test savvy. Last time I tried I said I’m sticking with it for 3 months minimum to get a grip on it.

I lasted about 4 months before I went back to windows.

It just makes life hard. Windows might be tracking every moment of my usage but it just works as Jensen would say.

The amount of hours I spent reading posts and forums trying to figure out how to get things working the way I wanted.

Linux really needs to unify a bit. Stop being so fragmented. It’s so stupid having different versions of Linux that require different versions of software to work.

Until a single common standard is adopted it will never gain traction.

Plus they need to get away from the terminal. It’s not the 80s anymore.

It’s gone now but for a long time we had a 24hr fruit shop.
