perfect demonstration of culture sharing for a newbie. Like advising them to always trust commands they find online without even explaining them what each command does!

You’re complaining about ads that are being pushed on you by an algorithm from ad companies. I’m telling you there are no ad companies. Seems relevant.
I never typed the word “ad”. I specifically said post of top brands. How can this be achieved in ActivityPub? Easy. When you are using lets say Threads, their proprietary system treats differently ads and normal posts. However, anything their system is pushing on the federated network (ActivityPub) is disguised as a normal post. A post that is having millions of engagement will be visible in “All”.
Nothing prevents them from doing that right now.
You act like you’re new to internet. What prevents them is that their audience is not here and companies are not paying them for that. However companies will pay them to promote their products in Threads. With the current numbers, Threads has the potential to dominate the “All” page.
to be technically correct, they are not “distributing” it. They are doing the same thing shazam does for music.
that’s irrelevant. Nothing prevents the influencers to promote their products as they do in all the popular platforms. You’re thinking only in terms of ads as coming from an ad server but this is not necessarily the case.
yes, very misguided. I always loved the idea of browsing “All” and see all top brands with millions of engagement promoting their products
the trade between an encrypted storage and the ability of a full backup is a very bad deal. Unless you’re talking for a phone that you leave at home at all times
does it work for encrypted phones?
yeah I mostly commented that because the fact that the game itself is so much smaller than the audio is impressive and funny at the same time
650MB CD media. The game itself was 40-50MB and the rest 500-600MB was the audio in wav (CD player compatible) type
once I had a flatmate that every time he was cooking he was leaving the kitchen like a warzone and he had used every utensil available in the kitchen. He somehow thought that it was faster for him to focus only on the cooking and after it is completed, to do all the dishes, pots, utensils, glasses, oven trays, scissors, screwdrivers, hammers, drills or whatever else he may had used.

I don’t think we should underestimate the savvy programmers out there
you can’t imagine how many programmers out there are living their life without adblocks. Even before this last month’s shitshow
thanks for the input. It makes sense. No, it is not overclocked or intentionally undervolted. I think it could be undervolted if the PSU fails to provide sufficent voltage which also can be a possibility since it was a middle-tier “normal” PSU which is already 5 years old
isn’t this more or less what they’re doing now? The difference is that the ads are coming from different server and have an overlay on top with a timer and a skip. As long as the ads are coming from a different server they will be detectable. Also as long as the ads have overlays they are also detectable. They would need to make the ads be served from the same server that serves the video and eliminate the overlays.
the reason they are not doing it is because the ads are personalized. So if they want to bake an ad onto a video they will end up with countless videos each on with their own unique ads which is not viable logistically. So they can only do it on-the-fly. But re-encoding each video on-the-fly for each user is also a nightmare logistically, if not impossible at all.
yeah, I will try these today…
it reached to the point that says “Pass complete, no errors, press Esc to exit” but the test still runs. So yes, I will re-do it for the additional passes, but from a first look, it looked fine.
btw, do you happen to remember whenabout the first crash happened? Did it start out sporadic and grow more frequent?
it started happening before one month. It could have such pattern, yes. In the beginning it started happening some of the times I was watching any video. In the end it ended up happening almost every time. Today I’m still trying to make it happen though but not yet.
will check this too then. Thanks
