Anna’s Archive does this. I think its a really good way to make it difficult to take them down.

Hopefully this hack starts some conversations on how they can ensure longevity for their project. Seems they’re being attacked on multiple fronts now.

I have my Google TV in apps only mode. If Google can still see that I pirate literally everything I watch, and circumvent YouTube ads with it then, well, maybe it sends a message.

Yeah, LG always had awesome concept phones, a bit of a shame they’re not doing phones anymore.

I know rollables are coming, just a question of how long until they end up in a consumer device.

With how my Galaxy Flip has held up, this thing will be unusable in 6 months. There’s no way it will lay flat for long with regular use.

I’m waiting for rollable screens to become a thing.

I’m pretty sure both the App Store and the Google Play Store both require social media apps to have a block feature. Will be interesting to see what happens if he goes through with this.

Ive provided one in another comment.

I don’t understand that interpretation. The original comment was:

Israel could have taken out entire hospital staffs with this “technique”. Hope they remain human and don’t.

To which macarthur_park replied:

Seems unlikely considering only pagers belonging to Hezbollah had the explosives added.

They do not think it’s likely that hospital staff, Hezbollah affiliated or not, could be in danger. I challenged that. I don’t think they were aware that Hezbollah had a civilian wing at all, and that many public sector workers are technically “Hezbollah-affiliated” due to the nature of the political situation there.

No one has suggested that in this comment chain.

Good, then we should all agree that this was a despicable attack on Israel’s part and this whole conversation is pointless.

They said “Seems unlikely [that pagers would be in the hands of doctors] considering only pagers belonging to Hezbollah had the explosives added.”

That article directly refutes that. It is heavily implied when you’re all saying “Hezbollah” you’re talking about militants. Again, it is unreasonable to suggest that workers, including doctors and nurses, that are part of the civilian arm of Hezbollah’s de facto government are fair targets in either morality or international law.

Hezbollah, the de facto government of large parts of Lebanon, ordered the pagers and widely distributed them. Many of them went to civilians for legitimate purposes. It’s unreasonable to suggest that these are fair targets because they were briefly in Hezbollah’s control at some point along the chain.

There isn’t one, because this is objectively not true.

YouTube let’s creators A/B test different thumbnails, but they can’t upload a bunch of them to feed to different demographics or automatically cycle them like Netflix does. I’m sure that’s coming though.

It’d be pretty funny if the Steam Deck couldn’t run Doom

Makes you come across a little aggressive

I’m not denying that these features are a welcome addition, I’m just lamenting the loss of the cheaper version for use-cases where those features arent really needed.

I pretty much just watch Youtube on my bedroom TV, and I got one for my mom so she can watch Netflix on her 10 year old 720p 32”. I don’t want to pay $100 for that.

I might get the new one for Steam Link in the living room though, that does sound sick.

I get what you’re saying, but these new ones are twice the price of the 4K Chromecast. It sucks that they’re killing the $30 HD Chromecast as well, its great for my spare TV. I wouldn’t want to pay 3x that price for essentially the same functionality if I need to replace it.

I know there’s other Android TV boxes that are comparable, but Google’s offering was an easy go-to.

Airpods are more about convenience than sound quality. Not sure how cameras factor in there though.

It’s crazy that Microsoft hasn’t made an interface for Windows for handhelds like this. They’re leaving money on the table.

I get mine from Soulseek. I can usually find what I’m looking for.

There’s a self-hosted option for Torrentio that I admittedly haven’t set up but am saving for when it inevitably becomes useless
