rather than having dumb wrapper classes for the nms shit, you can use the nms shit directly
casting a nms CommandSource to a sponge CommandCause <33
sounds epic
selectors should be ez on fabrric too
and other nms args
nbt parsing
lool
uh oh
@heady spear daily reminder that ur poop
if he's poop then ur bile
poop is objectively better
but notice, lads
THEY'RE BOTH SHIT
simp on a hairtrigger as always lol 


http://haste.athion.net/puzujocowu.shell idk how people always manage to break my plugin, altough this seems like an issue with paper versions
dum dum people
yea, the stupid fuk downgraded paper
which im pretty sure there is something written somewhere
THAT SAYS NOT TO DO THAT
i've even switched between 1.16, 1.12, 1.15.x and never even seen that error lol

it was added in the 1.15 or 1.16 cycle
the check
but idk how you would load a 1.16 world in 1.12 without lots of problems
without problems is quite the understatement there 
i mean, idrc, its just a test world
just ignore the errors and they might go away 
i wish modding rimworld was as easy as making mc pluings 
well at least C# has extention methods
hello are you @potent warren
no thanks
Epic. Just reinstall Grub.
@ashen cliff any idea how i can do that when i only have a rescue system? vkvm works, but when i try to boot it dies. I can get into rescue and mount original system, but can't install there
ullright is an opensource web framework initiated by ull.at business websolutions
lets try it
yea
update-grub just updates the current grub installation
That should work.
yea i actually just fucked my system by killing it during an update
so im in and just rerunning dpkg
:')
Since you chroot the actual system.
U can bypass rescue system i believe by just booting windows boot manager if u have win 10 in bios
Yeah so its best to mount system and chroot then re install grub
You can just ask for KVM access and go into the bios, OC the system, set the fans to 100% and run.
thanks. that's what im doing already
(@ gru)
lmao
ok well, efi dir apparently doesnt exist
maybe i need to mount it differently
there is a chance it's not uefi installed
well i mean
/boot/efi is there
and when i try to reinstall grub it complains that grub-install failed
and it's the grub efi package
Yes
no
yeah i did....it says it's not an efi partition lmfao.
hence why i said maybe i need to mount it differently
@twin lagoon fix system for me
michael is best 🥺
U can also mount efi if it has not already
my guy
Use ls
@void void ?
Whats confusing about ls
what’s even going on? are you still trying to fix the same problem from earlier?
what’s confusing is how you’re trying to use it in this context
it’s not going to help him?
idk what ls was supposed to do for me
bro, ls solves all problems
but yes same problem
first thing they teach you in school

what is grub-install complaining about
what’s the problem
Ok
@twin lagoon https://hastebin.com/yuholiqugu.sql
Gl hf
Well. You didn't provide it a path.
seriously what is ls supposed to do https://owo.whats-th.is/8cu9rRC.png
yeah just provide it a path
yes i used --efi-directory and it told me 'not a valid efi directory'

plz god


should i be outside of chroot for this, no right
Can you try without the --target part?
Also it should refuse to install on md by default.
When i do fdisk -l it actually shows that its an efi parition

Install it on each disk directly. Simple enough.
u wot

That's what I did then Debian broke it.

Run lsblk and give us the output.

grub-install /dev/sda
grub-install /dev/sdb
that worked, but like?
dpkg still wont finish because it's forcing the efi version
k nvm
wow installing arch linux
Did you ever doubt me?
yes
what fixed it lol
grub-install /dev/sda
grub-install /dev/sdb
most likely
ok but for some reason its still mad about grub efi version
when trying to apt upgrade
should i uninstall it 
i ran the purge command but it didnt do shit
when trying to
apt upgrade
can't you hold the package lol
yes but that doesnt solve the issue
doesn't holding prevent the thing from wanting to update so much
but...that's not the problem
oh ok
the problem is it worked before, i did something bad, system got fucked, booted to rescue, reinstalled non-efi grub, it booted, but now it's mad because it cant install the efi grub for some reason
Have fun.
plz

on arch it says to use this ```# grub-install --target=i386-pc --debug /dev/sda
grub-install --target=i386-pc --debug /dev/sdb```
lol
i wonder what'll happen if i do this https://askubuntu.com/a/1111870/203826
that's what he just did
did u use --target=i386-pc
that's the default....
it defaults to i386-pc
k
ok i did that and successfully installed the problem package
and now it wont boot again 
lets do it again this time with feeling
oh shit it booted 
ok now docker is trying to start everything at one fucking time

Working as expected™️.
thanks krusic ill suck ur dick as payment

so anyway @twin lagoon cf access charges now?
i got a bill anyway


hamachi
Are you more than 5 users?
Cloudflare Access
Extend Zero Trust access to corporate and SaaS applications. Free for up to 50 users.
oh cool
50 users now
no im 1 user nmf
Ah ok, just making sure 👍
well ok im not even sure if it's for access
it was for something but they dont seem to provide itemized receipts
oh shit
it was a domain
they renewed it for me, but i have autorenew off 
ok nvm it was a different domain anyway ill be quiet now
not even the right way to use the joke
great I need to call netcup myself
apparently my phone number was incorrect
They are charging me 70 eur
what the hell
for?
an 11 eur vps
tf
they'll get that 70 eur no matter the cost 
oh they charge 6/12 month durations for VPS
matter of fact I do recall having a dedi with them last time I used them
I’m just gonna go with scaleway despite them having ddr3
🤔 They do have EPYC instances.
scaleway?

how would i go around adding the worldedit api to my plugin?
assuming i have to use this: https://worldedit.enginehub.org/en/latest/api/
that would be correct, that has all the instructions you need
im not very good ad java
it requires reading and understanding, it doesnt just give you copy paste
yeah... im not very good at it
what id do i put in for the repo tho
yeh vouch for that
oh
here's an example, its not on latest i think
@worn ember thanks
yeah worldedit's got an impl for everything pretty much
their core codebase is abstracted so pretty easy to write compatibility layers
Bloch would be proud
Who
well it compiles... yay!
Oh hell yeah its maven
imagine not having copy pastable pom examples
ez, I just provide kotlin examples to copy/paste
you monster
Only normal functional members of society use maven
gradle is ouch
Gradle is a bruh moment
one of the reasons i hate android studio

gradle scares me :(
Maven scares me
now how would i go around using //fill snow_block 20 using the API
Well nmf is not s member of society so it checks out
Yeah
wow the documentation is really vauge
no it just expects you to know how to write java
if you don't know it you should not be writing plugins, period
WE API is not an API to learn on
true lmao
That's like deciding to drive a motorcycle before you know how to write a bike
yeah from my limited experience you need to know what you're doing
ride
just use skript
Well evident by the amount of garbage on spigot i think people still write java without know it lol

The documentation of the WE API is very well. It tells you pretty clear how to do stuff xy way, however if you don't know what are you doing/how you should do stuff, it wont help you a lot.
Reading that doc, it's really in depth actually. Code snippets aren't everything and if you can't write or try to read it without them then idk what to tell you
Imagine using code snippets
im a mod in this programming discord and i swear to god
every single one of the newbs in there is like
'i cant find a tutorial for x'
People like being spoon fed
me who only does java for my server and has no intention of ever using it for anything else

thats really not an excuse
if it's for your server you think you'd care enough to learn it properly so you don't fuck the shit out of your server
but, hey, maybe not. he just wanna play the noob card and uwu not my fault im a noob
so, whatever
Literally me 6 years ago and nowadays I don't wanna do stuff without anymore
NMF is cute
but, hey, maybe not. he just wanna play the noob card and uwu not my fault im a noob
@potent fossil the ultimate excuse:im 13 years old just leave me alone
ik simple 🥺
wow wtf call me cute back
you're cute as well :3

lol well
how wholesome

ur both dumb so

YOU PUNG ME
I PUNG U
the council will now decide your fate @viral hornet
In my honest defence, I have had a fair bit of gin
I hope the council takes that into consideration
Wouldn’t ping in past tense be pong
pinged?
You pong
pung

the past participle of ring is rung, so I'd say pung makes sense 👀
yeah i wasnt joking
and the past tense should be pang :3
how does one get out of the git thing?
q
mfw i spam ctrl+q
"more efficient", "recursive" uh
yes here's a sample convo with ring:
"you rang?"
"i rung you hours ago"
so with ping:
"you pang?"
"i pung you hours ago"
Same how you quit vim or any other sane text editor smh

no thats ctrl+q
Same how you quit vim or any other sane text editor smh
@mossy vessel nano
nano is 
recursive is very efficient u dum dum, its the same code, just more 
I would have pung you, had I not known that you'd behave like wiz :3
recursion b big bad
dont talk to me or my recursion ever again
bruh subroutine jumbs b slöw
that's why we should write all programs in one big chonkers function
spam ctrl+c, space or enter
I like big chonkers functions
but also you need plan ahead so you can use registers instead of the stack because memory access be slöw
so i check out an older commit, and now it made that a commit that reverts the commits before that one, how do i go back to the latest commit from remote?
Registers are easier to work with imo, so I'd opt for using those also
the same guy answered me 3 times lol
Where possible, of course
git reset --hard o/l 
@mossy vessel 🍆 ⬅️ ➡️ 🍑
You'll need to reset it hard in order to delete stuff lol
i did
Dunno, I don't use IJ's vcs
i used the cli lol
iykyk

wait am confused ill send pic
git reset --hard HEAD~<go back amount>
lol ded be dum
cant i just pull from remote branch or something and override local changes?
its a local commit
all i did was git checkout <commit>
nmf am lonely
im self isolating because my dad has 3 symptoms :/
its kinda sad
because all my friends are at school
and i have nothing to do
Your country kills people
welcome to the UK
bruh
its the perfect plan
i mean
City, you are always welcome 👀
i can just wait 3 hours
i think im halfway through the WE code
i went to college this week, next week is from home tho
😂
bruh i just tried typing Exception instead of catch because python > java
Thx I'll pass
Python and Java are both great languages in their own right
stop being dumb all of u
city 
Python and Java are both great languages in their own right
@heady spear i mean yeah you are right
that was my peference
also c# ftw
just like python
cython :]
cython and jython 😄
its... interesting
Also uh python has native bindings for when it needs to be quicc
python is a runtime parsed language so it automatically suxs
the thing you can probably get killed over tho: unity vs unreal
i prefer unity, but only because C++ hurts me internally
Unreal has better licensing. Worse tooling support (except for UE itself bcuz <3) and it's harder to learn for most people. It's arguably the better platform though, if you manage to be productive with it :]
^ correct
why must you hurt me this way
the thing you can probably get killed over tho: unity vs unreal
ah unity, spent 3 months creating a GI system only for them to add one in the next release
one thing i do like about unity: new platform? support is there
i swear unity was one of the first to add iOS support
also, XR is the best
WAIT A SECOND
I FORGOT THE ULTIMATE ENGINE
SOURCE 2
cryengine had the best folliage/vegetation back in the day. Haven't touched game dev in years though so not sure if that's still the case
i cant wait to play the sus game
I'm a netimerse kinda guy
Gamebryo looks tempting but I don't need anything new or fancy
Don't get me started on creation engine
I really like Godot for 2D games
(it’s technically a 3D game engine first but really you’d be better served developing 3D games on Unity or something)
i want to build a 2d game in phaser
finished the boys s2 last night. man that season was a twist
its on amazon prime, right?
yeah
its nothing like marvel superhero shit lol
Oh is S2 out now fully?
yep
oh i thought amazon binge releases?
well im fairly sure that last episode was the season finale lol, would be weird if it wasnt 😛
i do too, i just didnt think amazon slow released
Only the first 3 episodes were released at the same day, then one per week
i have to upload all of the attachemts to google drive to even see them properly
ouch
i don't care color has less letters than colour lmao
if I set column defaults in pgsql, select * queries will return these defaults if a field is null yeah?
oh
it's when the row is created
minecraft 1.16.4 changing network protocols?
could that lead to via version dying
Morning friends.
subtract bit (1 << 30)
oh
ah
That way, it's now possibleto have releases that don't have protocol bumps
i see
snapshots get bumped but major versions which are protocol compatible can stay the same
interesting
well, minor versions really.

what did i just miss
racist
kek
Imagine accepting friend requests
@vernal moth well we didnt ask for the bit, we asked them to just stop changing the damn thing when the protocol was the same lol. but they i guess wnated to distinguish snapshot clients. but honestly they shouldnt do that either, let snapshot clients connect to 1.16.3 servers when protocol is still the same
why cant mojang just make changes that would break via-version
can you rephrase that in english
Yes
me?
I am saying there is no point in viaversion
? yes there is lol
you might as well join with an outdated client

I am also confused the more I read his message lol
Looks like someone didn't understand the protocol change
What is love. Baby don't hurt me

doesnt changing the protocol change the packets?
yes, a one time break to stop future unnecessary breaks
aikar re protocol changes
i think its useful to know what the client version is
they could have made two different version numbers
protocol and version
the bit works for that effect ig
they'd have to change the ping and handshake protocol tho which doesn't sound fun
if you subscribe to them
commenting auto-subscribes you
there are settings to tweak all that
triage+ also auto-subscribes you to everything
my account is relatively new and i haven't tweaked settings, and even though i'm subscribed to a good amount of things that receive comments, i've never had a notification for any of them
i get emails
but i mean this little bell
<3
be glad bluely: https://i.moep.tv/fK31pdIm.png
yep
cool, thanks aikar
and uncheck email if you dont even look at them by email lol
that was the only way i was getting my notifications
and i barely ever check my email
ah
i had no clue tux was commenting on my doc pr lol
I only look at the emails so the website notifications are a bit meh for me lol
email is a double edged sword, you know about the things people edit/remove later, but on spam attacks, they are still there even after github is cleaned up
i get so many emails i dont even bother looking at them
they just sometimes help me to remind me of stuff I only glanced at in the email though
yeah, i have a new email that i specifically use for relevant things
and one which is my dumpster
using gmails category system, helps separate stuff, all my github notifs go under Forums tab
I just filter stuff and apply labels/folders
if you use categories, forums is off by default, gotta turn it on
but I have a no-unread-email policy anyways ¯_(ツ)_/¯ (maybe that's why I forget about some lol)

I don't use their categories
yeah i get too much automated emails to have a "no unread" policy
I auto-read automated shit that isn't worth the read and remove it from my inbox lol
10gb on emails, oops
e.g. mailinglists
how do i see my gb usage
or cronjobs
bottom
"1.22 GB (8%) of 15 GB used" 👀
@mental meadow uwu
are you gmail beta too @limpid comet ?
doesnt beta users get more space than new accounts
or phoenix
or is everyone 15GB now
pretty sure it's everyone
everyone has 15gb
everyone is 15gb
ah
I mean it's for every google cloud storage and not just mail anymore anyways
i meant when gmail first came out
i've got 15
i got gmail when it was beta lol. what was that 15 years ago?
bruh people be replying to 3 year old posts
Keen, I am the author of the DefenseShields mod and having spent the better part of a year working on this mod I have learned a lot about the limitations
16 i think, 2004 right?
yeah i didn't have gmail back then
man those were the wild times of the internet.
i was 6 i think when gmail was launched lmao
i remember hearing something about it on the tv
i was 3 lmao
I feel old
WoW/FFXI, Chromeless web browser popups, opening CD Trays with fake pictures using VBScript, MS Zone, MSN Messenger, ICQ
IRC being even more used

java was a thing then lol
people who write java ain't jvm hipsters
oh i thought you was saying the entire jvm was hipster stuff
i dislike kotlin runs
yes
do people still call it raku i thought it was just called perl
cuz perl is dum
i remember reading about it but i guess i remember it the other way around
I don't know. Perl 6 was actually searchable. If you search for Raku you get results about ceramics and stuff.
perl is better than kotlin in practice because there are no diehard perl fans who tell you their language is better
they renamed the entire language?
i dunno jroy ive heard some "I can do everything in perl" people, but it is a super rare breed of people who actually enjoy perl and can develop it without throwing up
only time i touched perl was modifying Idle RPG bot for IRC, and it was so painful
yeah there are some people but not nearly as toxic as kotlin fanboys you have to admit
eggdrop scripts were perl
irssi scripts are perl <3
oh ive done some perl for that then too, i know i touched some irssi scripts
i use to be hardcore irssi
TL;DR Perl 6 isn't really that much like Perl, so they renamed it
Perl 7 is more similar to 5 than 6
yeah I hate the name
but i stopped using irssi once I found quassel
"In Perl 6, we decided it would be better to fix the language than fix the user." doesn't sound much like perl anyways
runs
once you collect the all the triage, you must fight the final boss
just close all issues and you'll be able to manage them one by one when they get reopened
ez pz
big brain
god I hate repo managers that do that lol
by god he's figured it out
"yeah, wi didn't have a solution in the last 3 years so I'm just going to close all of those"
just like decrementing the thread sleep amount every version to make people think you're speeding up your software 
oh if anyone uses "Nano Defender" chrome extension, uninstall the shit. got sold to a third party whos added spyware
What was it supposed to do?
oh if anyone uses "Nano Defender" chrome extension, uninstall the shit. got sold to a third party whos added spyware
@slim nymph I use Firefox lately and it seems pretty nice, they have been focusing on user privacy ( including data collection ) stuff lately
I booted up vivladi after a few months on my laptop turns out the AutoRefresher extension I had was malware, opened up like 15 porn tabs before it synced from the server that it was malware lmao
my wife got a fun lessen on when addons go rogue yesterday, went upstairs for her to show me something, she clicks a link in hangouts which opens chrome which she never uses (she uses firefox), and we get a face full of Tinder and boobs
then it had the audacity to say "sorry to see u go! want 50% off premium?"
some "Auto Refresh" addon went malware earlier this year too
yeah probably the one i had*
I only have chrome installed to rarely Chromecast on my PC
Oh my god same 
oh lmao i was typing my msg didnt see yours chew
I feel bad tho i believe firefox is cutting down on people working on it too
yeah FF is dying, its down to like 2-5% usage share 😭
yee just giving firsthand experience, it sucked lol
for the official thread on the discontinuation of the nano project
Firefox is so good too 
i dont have a "lot" of extensions
idriz 
Just 15 looks like
Michelle

this article says the chrome store added a malware .js file that isnt in the github repo
Firefox works well and it doesn’t bother me if no ones using it 
they have this in the repo which seems odd too: https://github.com/nenodevs/uBlockProtector/blob/944434bd5e2015128f1f1a4adff8d05150c034d8/src/background/connection.js
wait hold on i use nano adblocker / defender
personally I use curl and hand render it with pen and paper
ah thats prob the file @wheat quarry
Oh damn, I found my next adventure, spigotdrama chrom(e/ium) extension
. what about Firefox.
why does shit like this get into the chrome store?!? do they not check updates?
correct
why does shit like this get into the chrome store?!? do they not check updates?
@phoenix616#0000 it’s the spigot store but chrome
npm 
firefox takes like 1-2 days to do everything approved and all that, sucks
it's npm but chrome 
at least spigot doesn't auto-update lol
whomsnt
afaik extensions get auto reviewed and only get sent to a human when there are requests for powerful permissions, have had a legal request, or fails a virus or other automated check
if(code.contains("virus")) return false;
the js beautified: https://gist.github.com/Phoenix616/a3598680ef3ff45aac2c0d5dff093a4d
oh so it's cmi now

thank god I do all my sensitive stuff via incognito mode with limited addons enabled xD
everyone: ree they're tracking my browser!!
their phone: am i a joke to you?
nobody does
i just use ublock origin 
my sister does, she doesn read and installs every adware possible
it's defender but nano
just use ublock
most of it is socket.io fbut your original link phoenix people have found some suspect code in it
uBo doesn't do what uBlockProtector does
I don’t care about data privacy and look forward to my deep learned suggested porn algorithms from google
.
Aikar: well that is just the original one made readable
i already have that feature
you know it does actually do that for me
you can add filters to ublock to accomplish it
or you know
support digital content
not google per se but some websites do 
i allow non intrusive ads 
I do support it, JRoy, I pay them money directly if they don't use ads
if they do then they can go fuck themselves
kappa

yeah i submitted my extension to firefox twice, second time failed for missing meta so i just gave up
Hello. Does anyone use CoreProtect here?
also pretty sure you can't get around some anti-adblock blockers just with uBo, or at least that used to be an issue ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Just get an ad-hider, doesn't block it, just hides it
in Firefox no one targets my anti-adblock extension so it works everywhere
its nice
Would using a MySQL be better then just a file in the plugins folder for CoreProtect?
whats the extension
anti ad blockers look for the extension nuking stuff, not for just setting display none 
if we keep adblocking we're gonna end up in the same boat as we were before where nothing was free
for now

idrc about blocking sites that much
people blocking youtube/twitch ads is what gets me the most
@chrome quest go ask the core protect guy, it really depends on how that stuff was optimized, most the time SQL can improve performance with a large DB (if you are doing it right)
every browser but chrome is gonna have this eventually
ok but youtube ads get very annoying
JRoy. You can be a product if you want. People who use adblocker prefer not to be a product.
ok
oh chrome will have that too, chew, just not for google trackers ;)
@chrome quest they're still the product lmao
yeah but the same ad?
content isn't free
7 videos in a row?
you're paying with ads

I just stopped watching youtube 
what do you watch now
subscribing to someone on twitch is a good way not get ads there too
You’re not paying with ads. You’re being sold to the companies who make the ads.
yeah, ads don't pay because you watch them, they pay because they are able to mine your data
cant lie my boy jay has a point
well thats how ads work yes phoenix
i hide ads because i hide content ill never interact with
and I will not gift people my data without me willingly doing so
how's bing
but it's not google ™️
the one time I bought something off an ad it was a chinese company posing as a real company and there were no products, just a scam
oh i should check my points
if the whole internet would've not shoved ads into my face before I am able to evaluate the actual site's content that would be great
i'm not saying you should interact with the ad, I never do, but blocking them is immoral on sites like youtube/twitch
ads are the only reason clickbait is a thing
phoenix would it be better if they forced everyone to pay for everything
I disagree it’s immoral.
because without ads that's where you'd be
not really, jroy. tons of content creators on twitch are surprised when they hear that people don't block ads
yes, jroy
that would be better
the normal person doesn't block ads
people watching on tv don't
why did that get quoted
because then people would only pay for actual quality stuff and not the whole shitty clickbait that currently dominates the web
what about people who can't afford it
wat
Watching YouTube isn’t a right.
who wouldn't be able to afford paying 10ct to watch a youtube video?!?
or 5
whatever your ad-view is worth
poor people phoenix
the majorty of internet users don't block ads, we are within a bubble of technical competence in this discord chat
holy shit
nobody should be as poor as that. if they are then we need a better social system
A lot of people also watch via phones, so blocking ads becomes bit harder on there
or offer free access via libraries like it is with traditional media
yeah I don't even know if you can have extensions on your phone, last time I checked I couldn't find any way to do so
firefox on android
ad supported media is a thing
Youtube Vanced on android
tbh I personally would be ok with ads if they were a) curated by the content creator/website themselves and b) not personalized and based on datamining
you're fighting a losing battle
ads being curated by the content creator doesn't make sense anymore
sponsors say hi
GDPR is a thing, it's definitly not a losing battle in the EU
gdpr did next to nothing
we've got deep learning algorithms doing the best job at ad delivery now
gdpr just gave a little more control
GDPR literally stopped everyone from mining your data and creating an ad-profile without your explicit consent
(and yes, lots of sites still illegally do it)
sure, you still got ads tho
JRoy. You can roll over and give up all your privacy. Others can fight for theirs.
untargeted
which is my point b fullfilled?
you're still losing the battle
also if you're fighting for you privacy stop using google
stop using youtube
pay for your content
(also point a) includes that content creators/site owners are responsible for the concent of their ads. so if they spread malware they will have a lawsuit)
I don’t use google.
stop using youtube
@cunning raft what about small creators that dont have other platforms that they use?
@next wind edge case but don't block ads
phoenix wasn't talking to you on those points
they make something
in todays world we have deep learning ads that figured out you want an anime waifu pillow before you knew you wanted one
but we used to just have random ass advertising, we can easily go back to that with regulation
no?
nothing != something
you need 1000 subs and 10000 watched minutes
if they have adsense they make something
otherwise google just pockets all ad revenue
small content creators make nothing from ads
@phoenix616#0000 even if they make just 15 dollars, thats still a new game they could buy or whatever
phoenix: hosting video isn't free
define small
google can profit from it too
oh wait, 4k watch minutes
*4k watch hours actually
I can't read
JRoy: youtube changed the rules in the past
you're saying google isn't allowed to make money on a platform where they host content for free
you were able to profit from ads with way lower numbers, then the adcapolypse happened and they stopped doing that
yeah
this has nothing to do with youtube having to pay more for hosting
they just said "fuck small content creators"
it's a manual review now for partner programs
they still owe me 15ct
to be fair the adpocalypse was a dirty move by the corporations, they are the major payers that allowed youtube to operate at its scale
well in the past being partner didn't mean being able to run ads though
you were able to get ads with 50 subscribers lol
owo what
also what's interesting is that you can disable personalized ads on your videos. and if you do then youtube will stop recommend them to other people xD
Yeah lmao
And partner was viewed as an endorsement
There's a google video about this
I think EmpLemon made it
Can you go back to the other bit. How is it immoral for me to block ads?
morally it's the same as piracy
Exactly
Blocking ads is literally just piracy if the platform has no other way of directly support it (and you don't use that option)
Youtube for example has youtube premium
Twitch has twitch turbo
it's questionable though how much usage of a website warrants that you have to pay for it though
you mean twitch/amazon prime
and that doesn't remove ads
Twitch turbo is another thing
Blocking ads isn't an option unless you sub to the channel directly
you can only remove ads by subscribing now
That probably wont even be a thing soon
WHY!!!!
sharing your product id online
Twitch turbo still exists
uh, so they re-added it. interesting
Subs remove ads per channel
Turbo used to be the same as prime before they turned ads back on for prime users
they basically made it two different stages I guess
yeah, it's Prime Gaming now, not Twitch Prime
probably to integrate it into Amazon's over gaming launcher and get rid of the twitch one
*other
Yeah
they have another gaming launcher?
Had
the twitch one is already bad enough
I think it's gone now
tbh ads on twitch are actually kinda good: they don't play ads for non-affiliate people so any ad played will actually profit the streamer
does anybody use the twitch desktop app for watching twitch?
yeah minority split for affiliates tho
meanwhile youtube will have ads for everyone
i just use it for the prime games
Youtube only has ads for non partners when they have an above 150% fill rate
Which nowadays is almost always
Xmas time they'll probably have a 1000% fill rate
And then in January it usually dips below 100%
Same for twitch
i had like 3 ads on my phone when i tried to watch a yt video



@mossy vessel nty
