How do you get “USA” from one neighborhood in one city in one state?

The same tailscale that announced last week that they are going to start charging?

I went over and looked at the peertube FAQ and nope, there’s no monetization plan. Their reasoning for that is consistent with their goals but it is a hurdle to creators moving to the platform.

When are they moving all to freetube or something?

Unless I’m missing something Freetube is a client. So it wouldn’t be Jeff moving to freetube it would be you using freetube to watch his content on YT.

I’m guessing you meant peertube instead of freetube and your answer there is “When they can get paid.” Making content takes time and costs money and YT pays creators like Jeff for doing it.

I dislike YT alot but there’s financial decisions at play here that can’t really be argued with.

Ah yes, the classic “lOOk aT tHE TOlEraNt LEfT” argument.

The person I was replying too didn’t mention Left or Right and neither did I.

It’s a false equivalency.

Silencing your ideological opponents is ethically and morally inferior and I don’t care what your supposed motivation is.

What makes you think that?

Haven’t you wondered why he’s all but stopped making videos on his primary channel? In January of 2024 he released a video where he openly says that he can’t make money like he used too so he’s dialed back his “main” channel and is instead focusing on his Barcade channel.

This isn’t the first time he’s done it either. Remember, he started off as the “TheiBookGuy” where you bought, fixed, and resold used Macs. When that stopped making money he quit doing it and launched a PC Repair channel and when that didn’t pay off he moved to RetroComputing.

Don’t get me wrong, I really enjoy his historical retro type content. I also appreciate the projects and energy he contribute(s/d) to the Retro community but in a contest of altruism between The 8 Bit Guy and Perifractic there’s really no contests.

My ideological opponents are already silencing speech.

Uh huh. I can fire up Social Media and find endless content openly discussing the entire spectrum of Political,Cultural, and Economic beliefs. Nearly all of that is openly discussed on Mainstream Media as well. You aren’t being silenced.

As long as fascists exist they must be silenced.

Define “fascist”.

When they seize power, they will not do you the courtesy of allowing you to speak…

Which is precisely what you yourself are proposing. Congratulations, you are rubbing elbows with the very people you claim to despise.

If you do not tolerate dissent then you are ethically and morally inferior.

Censorship of speech is a powerful tool. Why, if you have the true conviction of your beliefs, would you fight with one hand behind your back?

Yes, but have you considered the outcome of everyone doing this?

Moreover, I’ve seen no evidence in my lifetime that letting my ideological opponents speak leads to positive results.

Mmmmm, yes. All ideological opponents should be silenced. This is clearly the way.

Seriously, if this is what you believe then you are clearly stating that you have no interest in a Free Society. You are literally placing yourself in the same group with every other Tyrant, Authoritarian, and Fascists who needs to be resisted.

Free Societies must tolerate dissent, it is a foundational requirement.

Peri does it for love, David does it for money. Who do you want in charge?

If HR isn’t asking candidates about themselves as a person, or is only asking generic “Tell me about yourself” kinds of questions, then **they are doing it wrong. **

On the other side if a candidate doesn’t have any questions about their future work environment, not just the role they applied for, then they too are doing it wrong. A candidate should care about whether they would fit into an environment / culture.

At its core employment is a relationship and both sides should treat it that way.

Cross platform you say? So…like…ARM? 🙂

Then why does the whole article talk about PON and fiber?

I’m in Central Wyoming and could call my ISP right now to order a 10Gbs upgrade. My 2Gbs is plenty fast enough though.

This wasn’t one of Colin’s better videos but I do enjoy his channel.

Trump is worse than useless but these failures are the result of DECADES of underfunding and mismanagement.

“Game-Key Cards” so it’s a licensing dongle with a fancy name and peculiar shape.

It is fun, but it’s much smaller than I imagined.

It’s a product of its time. Oblivion’s game size was right at the 4.7G limit of what would fit on single layer DVD-5.

Oblivion Gates

Ugh, arguably the most boring and repetitive part of the game. Such a wasted opportunity too as they could have made each Oblivion gate be a hellscape mirror of the area that it spawned in (including towns). That would have been a fairly small amount of additional data for a huge gain in game play.

They suck, don’t do any more of them then you have too.

I feel ya. Two still in their boxes JetKVMs and a new Pi 500 is just the start for me. Soooo much stuff, so much money, and hundreds of hours of research into all of them.

It’s the other steps that make it ADHD.

Oh man, this one is a direct hit.
