  • Just a PSA for those who don’t know… no shade against Odysee… I’ve just encountered folks here who don’t know this:

    Veritassium and many others on YouTube make their living by the advertising shown on YT. If you’re a premium member, even more money goes to the creator when you watch their content. It’s this very money that allows independent creators to create more / better content!


  • I stopped reading after the second paragraph:

    The Vision Pro looks sleek in an Apple-y way, but it also looks pretty ridiculous. The company clearly imagines us wearing this headset throughout our days and interacting with people as if there isn’t a large device strapped to our heads

    If you squint your eyes, every single headset looks the same. Big dumb block goes on head. Arms flail around. And this imagined future he speaks of has been exactly the promise of what computing could be for decades. Longer.

    I personally gave up there because I’m tired of reading so much negativity and hate for the sake of hate and clicks.



  • How so?

    • I enjoy so many cooking shows, tech nerds, and drag queens that post videos that make me happy on YouTube.
    • I watch on my tv primarily
    • I’m so so so happy to support the individual creators who pour their life and so much love into their work, premium pays them more per view than ad-supported views.
    • I share with some friends, and they share their logins with me. Overall, my monthly cost for video services is low.
    • Usenet everything else ;)
