Games? No it's the high point of the entire franchise. It might literally be the only time star wars was good imo.

shani66 ,

It's just the spellslinger wizard archetype

shani66 ,

Sounds like you're the one winning here

shani66 ,

Obviously not. hurting bad people is morally neutral at worst.

I build up a (in)tolerance for ads even from creative YouTubers. I watched Internet historian ads like twice, i watched Some More News ads for a single episode. Even creative ads subtract from the quality of something better.

Pardon me, do you have the rule? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

A comic strip titled "WONDERMARK by David Malki!" featuring five panels. In the first panel, a dodo bird asks a seated man, "Pardon me, do you have the time?" The man responds, "Yes, it's—". In the second panel, the dodo exclaims, "You have the time!" The third panel shows multiple dodos excitedly saying, "He has the time,"...

They say Nethys became the god of magic when he learned everything in the universe, but that was just a side effect. The real apotheosis happened when he cast bajablast for the first, and final, time.

They could use their monopolies to force advertisers to pay a fair amount for a decent ad instead of taking pennies to ruin the Internet. I never even considered using an ad blocker back when it was just banner ads. Or maybe they could stop being a full decade behind the times and add donations to YouTubers for a cut. If they add value to premium instead of trying to remove value from the base experience they could even triple dip on these ideas.

You aren't an investor if you are planning to resell. Day trading and real investment are totally at odds. It's far better (for retirement) to invest in a stable company and get a set return over time for it. We also don't even need to do that for retirement, the fact that we do is fucking insane.

shani66 ,

Can't you block ads on twitch?

shani66 , (edited )

I'll let the ublock team carve demonic sigils into me and sacrifice my grandma if that's what it escalates to, I'd sooner lose YouTube entirely than sit through those ads

shani66 ,

Not scam ads, intrusive ads. A decade ago i read cracked and the only ads were non intrusive sidebar ads or a banner at the top. They didn't play music, they didn't interrupt what i was doing, they just existed. Google, being the near complete monopoly it is, could easily force the standard to return to that and many people would never even go looking for adblockers.

shani66 ,

You realize you could watch every ad on every video a creator puts out for a year and generate them less than a coffee, yeah? If you care go give them 5 dollars.

Fuck, an integrated donation/payment thing on YouTube would go so much farther for Google's profit than ads ever would as well!

I bet its people trying to justify their veneration of the law, a major issue I've seen on the Internet in recent years. Most people shoplift for thrills (iirc), then it's desperation. And even if someone steals to resell, they literally can't do a mark up outside of specific, terrible, circumstances since the store (and hundreds of stores just like it) are right there.

shani66 ,

The only time I've ever cared about someone shoplifting was when they stole from the store i was working at and, this is the important part here, tried to act like i was too stupid to get they were stealing. My dude, i don't care if you are stealing, just walk out, i couldn't stop you even if i cared, but please skip the stupid excuse making.

Twitter had rules about porn? Literally the only thing I've ever used it for was to follow porn artists to obscure to be put onto a booru or not in pixiv.

shani66 ,

I'm not stubborn, I'm just not going to accept a worse version of what I've already got.

shani66 ,

Couldn't care less about killing and eating animals, but it's pretty fucked how we go about it.

shani66 ,

I'm so interested but I've already got two groups and numerous games going on

shani66 ,

I could probably slip some into changeling

shani66 ,

Man you got a shitty family if they'll give up your hard earned drug money

shani66 ,

What wrong with brave? Never used it and don't know much about it myself

shani66 ,

Same, Linux has always been a cool Idea but not worth going through the trouble of installing, now Microsoft is making the alternative way more trouble.

shani66 ,

Which part, the sound of his genitalia or the fact that we were too good damn puritan to send proper medical diagrams to potential aliens?

shani66 ,

No, not at all. Sure the rich want to be richer, but hurting the poor is a goal in and of itself in our world.

shani66 ,

I don't suffer from carrying hate. My near boundless hate doesn't do anything for my day to day, and on the off off off chance i ever get to do anything about it it'll feel so good to indulge in.

shani66 ,

Honestly nicer than any beach I've ever been to

shani66 ,

Let's be real, it was mid even back then.

shani66 ,

I don't think I'd buy my weed from someplace so uptight. Like, they really don't seem to get it.

shani66 ,

Maybe the world ain't so bad after all

shani66 ,

You should know that Jordan Peterson gave himself brain damage by going to Russia so he could get put into voluntary coma because he couldn't quit benzos. Everyone should know that, it's amazing.

Anyways, YouTube is almost certainly trying to force you down a right wing rabbit hole. It'll do it if you have even the boost vague interest in politics (or games!).
