  • The early mass-adopted Internet, where every company aimed at kids had a website with free games, where everyone who wanted to share about themselves or their interests did so in their own little corner so you could rabbit-hole your way through the link trees, most stuff was non-monetized or had easy-to-block ads, and no tracking of your behavior was really happening.


  • She could have at least asked him to stop before destroying property.

    We don’t actually know that she didn’t, unless you’ve got another article with more detail. This article is sparse in details, but it’s only his word in it that she didn’t talk to him. That nobody was bothered by it. That it went from 0-100 in the span of a look.

    And idk about you, but that doesn’t sound all that likely to me, when everyone laughs at him for the consequences (seen in video). The whole thing screams this guy is an unreliable narrator. The whole thing to me reads like he knew he was pissing people off, like a YouTube prank channel sort of bother, and expected to walk away from it consequence free.

    This article has a bit more detail and it does make him sound like a shitty prank channel sort that relies on annoying other people going about their lives. But again has no info about the encounter except his own words.

  • Technically my device does that, but I found out that if I open videos in a defunct old browser (probably not a necessary component, just the one I use) that randomizes fingerprint information, if you long-press the video name and open in a new private tab (so new randomized fingerprint) it treats you for that one video as a new user.

    So just have to open each video I want to watch in a new private tab, and good to go, no ads ever. Yes this is a lot of work, but I’m not aware of other options on iOS. On my desktop I use freetube.

    I’m sure they will change this soon, but I’ll just stop using YouTube then. I’ve been full-on blocking sites through pihole that have started self-hosting their ad content, or where blocking the ad content breaks the page like IMDb. idgaf. I won’t use your site.




  • I leave my carriers out, open, and as part of their tunnel system (I sometimes put the ends of crinkly tubes into the carriers to make an end play point).

    So my cats actually enjoy their carriers. I don’t even have to shove them in, just put in a couple treats and since they are used to being in it, zip it peacefully behind them.
