We don’t make those references round here, this is a Radiohead post.

We’re living in an age of demagoguery, I don’t know why you wouldn’t use that metaphor instead of the relatively harmless advertising, it’s much more important and you can look around and see what it’s like.

Yeah I thought this would be a Radiohead reference, no surprises.

I don’t understand what you’re asking.

There’s too many dumb questions being asked on Twitter for Grok to get to all of them.

Lemmy has flaws, but Reddit is a fucking cesspool.

There’s not going to be a replacement for what Reddit used to be. The world is shittier now, that’s just gone. The right way to think of it is that the replacement for Reddit is a combination of Lemmy (or another preferred option) and being less online, being less attached to any one site.

Have loud sex with a woman his age to turn the tables.

It’s stupid rage bait for morons.

It would actually be a really great thing if we could crowdsource a few hundred of the most truly valuable reddit posts because then they could be trivially scraped and put on a site somewhere.

Fucking moron.

Yeah I use foobar and it works fine, but it still sucks and still affects us that the culture is streaming based. It’s better when your habits aren’t niche and you’re not always fighting against the norm.

Before you comment I’m begging you to take the parent comment in the general spirit of digital “ownership” having taken over the culture and not point out that Winamp technically still exists.

We gave up Winamp for this.

No it isn’t. It’s removing a batch script they used to provide as a shortcut to invoke the functionality. Until now they’ve been handholding people to streamline use of their less preferred feature and they’re no longer doing that. But by all means take the headline ragebait.

It takes principle and courage to enrich the Nazi site for only two and a half years and not a day longer.

I use sponsorblock, it’s great, but it only applies to that type of streamer content/ad. And it doesn’t have full coverage for that. It doesn’t help if your streaming service has unskippable ads. And Google is inching closer to insert ads into the Youtube video stream dynamically which will make them truly unblockable.

With Spotify you can’t even mute an ad without it pausing until you unmute.

On cable once they came out with DVRs you could skip the ado. Now there are unskippable ados and it’s much worse.

June 2025 is when manifest v2 is supposed to die for good. I think the issue is that it’s not really possible for Vivaldi or Microsoft or whoever to keep the code in there long term even if they wanted to.

Isn’t every chromium browser going to lose manifest v2 eventually, causing the real ublock origin to stop working?
