Sun his balls?

This time I might pull the plug.

Coming 2024.

So 2025, huh?

YouTube's pricing is a mess. Here's a quick breakdown of their offer here in France :

• YouTube Premium (so video + music): 12€/m

• YouTube Music Premium (music only, obviously): 10€/m

One would assume based on this that Google values YouTube at only 2€/m per user. But anyway, let's take a look at their family plans for a laugh:

• YouTube Premium (6 users): 18€/m

• YouTube Music Premium (6 users still): 15€/m

Let's put aside the price discrepancy. 18/6 = 3€/m per user. All signs point to Google being ok with making between 2 and 3€ per user per month, yet such an offer doesn't exist. Hell, make it 4€, even. People would flock to it. But no, they're just being greedy.

hands feel even

Strangely enough I know exactly what she meant by that. Over a decade ago I used to do this thing with words and sentences. Take the word "word", for example. W goes to the left. O goes to the right. R goes to the left and so D goes to the right. We ended on the right, so it's fine. But if we ended on the left, then I had to add another word and turn this little mental exercise into a decent sentence.

Sentences were kind of cheating, though, because even if I ended on the left then I just added a dot, which would fill a single "spot" and so make me "end on the right."

Yep. Convoluted, I know. It used to keep me up at night.

This is terrible news.

La SNCF m'avait envoyé un e-mail pour se vanter de ça et c'est vrai que moi aussi, ça m'avait fait tiquer.

Surtout que depuis quoi, un an (?), ils ont rendu le système de contact avec le service client encore plus compliqué en forçant le passage par un chatbot à la con. C'est vraiment minable. Si ça ça peut obtenir le titre de "service client de l'année", je n'ose pas imaginer la qualité des autres entreprises françaises.

The last bullet point might be the most impactful. Google should know the rules by now.

People suggesting DNS filtering are missing the point. Yes, people should do it, but for cosmetic stuff you need a browser extension.

Anyway. I used to use Adguard. Like you, I noticed how slow it was making Safari. Worse, sometimes it simply wouldn't work even though it was supposedly active.

I gave Ghostery a try. It worked. No slowdowns or anything. Then I settled for Wipr. You can't add custom lists to it, but at least it works as intended and doesn't seem to slow down Safari.

I only ditched Ghostery because I don't exactly trust them. Otherwise it was working perfectly, too.

PS: I am obviously also using a custom DNS server. I'm a ControlD customer.

They silently dropped that motto eons ago.

Sideload uYou+ or set up Yattee. If you don't know how to do any of those things, look into DNS based ad-filtering like ControlD and install Video Lite. Or skip the DNS part and only install Video Lite, but you'll see in-app ads unless you pay the $12/y subscription.

"It's already installed... as a Snap package."

Not to throw shades or anything, but it released in a very buggy state. I would never have put money on Bean at this stage of development, and worst of all the sale was time limited, putting me off even more.

You know, red flags and all that. I'm not saying Bean won't end up being a great app, but when you give money to get into an Alpha well, you get what you paid for.

The OP is TMNT, not Battletoads. Different green guys.

I really do wonder why more people aren't using Delta Chat.

Anyway. I remember using Session for a few months a couple of years ago. Something about the interface was bugging me. It felt sluggish.

Obviously not.

If you're saying this because Snowden said wait he said on Twitter, I'm sorry but I wouldn't know. Not because I didn't try to read the article, I did, but because my custom DNS flagged cointelegraph.com as being malignant and blocked it. True story.

Edit: cointelegraph, not "cointelegram."

Someone broke street date. Now if you don't mind, I'll go play for a bit :-)

Oh mais je veux uniquement annoter des PDF ! Seulement voilà, Draw va avoir tendance à changer la police des zones de texte présentes dans le PDF, même quand ces polices sont présentes sur ton système. Ça fait qu'en plus de faire mes annotations, je dois aussi faire de la mise en page. Pas fou !

Donc si SimplePDF ne vandalise pas le texte existant comme le fait Draw, ça me fera déjà gagner pas mal de temps !

Pas de support PWA

OK ça marche, merci pour l'info :-)

Because it isn't secure at all?

Call me a scrub, but I'm still waiting for decent gamepad support.
