That was a joke? Nice try Nostradamus, I know you can see the future.

Yeah I figured they went the Twitch approach. Desktop YouTube I still have ublock for, but there's no hope for the TV.

I have a pihole and the youtube app on a smart TV. Trying to block the ad domains from the TV just bricks the app. Maybe I'm doing something wrong but, I got no luck.

Now that's a fucking gang tattoo if I've ever seen one. Not like the literal Awareness Ribbon. 🎗️

The US has a greater obsession with tattoos than Japan by this point. If you go to a place in Japan and show off a tattoo, the owner might ask you to leave. The US they'll gulag your ass.

Might be a great excuse to visit Denmark... I hear it's wonderful there.

The Baltics catching strays: "and I took that personally"

I'm with you. I used to build maps, models, and textures for Battlefront 2 and share the files for free on Filefront. I got into programming for the joy of creating things that make people happy, or solve some little problems they have. I still make mods, the communities are out there and I'm glad I found them.

But tech evangelists and bro culture ruined the idea of programming as a career for me. The greed of late stage capitalism infected our industry the moment Facebook hit the scene, crypto accelerated it, and AI may as well be the final nail in the coffin. It's no longer a worthy or noble profession.

That was the whole play with COVID. Not much changes in 5 years it seems.
