Right it was a Democrat president who ordered the military marched into the Middle East based on completely made up information only to kill millions 🙄

Remote doesn’t pay the same if you’re not in a HCOL area. Most jobs scale based on location

Sure, maybe the hospital bills but raising 3 kids and going on vacations every year? You’re talking multi million dollar salary to be able to afford all of that on one income in SoCal of all places

And honestly, how many CEOs do you know who can walk the grounds of his business and tell you exactly what each component does and why? While it may not be his idea, that’s still a lot of knowledge to hold in your head.

Not Elon, that’s for goddamn sure. The dude randomly unplugged and moved entire racks of servers which caused massive downtime and glitchiness on Twitter.

It’s also extremely obvious he has done 0 actual tech work since the 90’s based off of the way he talks about coding. Also allegedly he had no idea how to run a Python script lmao

You can easily buy memberships for channels, which gives more money than premium. In fact, most memberships for channels I frequent are $0.99 a month, so you can definitely afford to support 10-15 of them for the same price as premium.

That’s great that it’s a good deal for you, but it doesn’t change the fact that google took features that were free to use and locked them behind a paywall. So by default it’s a bad deal on that front alone.

Except if you want to support creators and ensure they get all the money there’s far better ways that aren’t paying for adblocking lmao.

YouTube makes more money than ever, they are being greedy AF.

Ah yes, let’s defend Google for not raising the price of features that were free to begin with like listening with screen off and background listening? Not really sure how much lower the bar can get here

IDK why people are downvoting. I could see it being decent for YT Music but for YT Premium you’re literally paying for features free software can do for free. So it’s not really a good deal by any metric.

The screen is definitely adhered to the glass. You’d need to use gold razor wire to get it off, then assuming you don’t break the screen you’d need to clean it and install the new glass with adhesive. Definitely not a repair most people should attempt and you need more than just the glass.

The Model Y (2022). Its a great car. Tesla has made a great leap in quality from 2020 to 2022. We have Model 3s from different years, and the difference is huge.

And let me say as someone who has been driven in a plethora of Teslas as Uber/Lyft vehicles… they have not lol. Squeaks and rattles on brand new 2022-2023 cars is just embarrassing. Trim pieces falling off is just pathetic.

Maybe they should use some of their “industry leading margins” to invest in a QA team because as it stands there is no QA at that company.

Dropped Netflix and got a Plex share with tens of thousands of movies and TV shows. Costs less than their 4K plan for several streams. Now they’re doing the “you can’t login in more than one location” bullshit? Back to sailing the high seas for me and hopefully many others

Indeed. If Wefwef can reach feature parity with Apollo (and I suppose lemmy with reddit lol) it would be an awesome alternative since it is cross platform

I use private trackers for downloading content I want to keep local backups of but I also subscribe to a Plex share, hard to beat their on demand content library!

Is there a place to donate/support lemmy.world?

Yep, I edited all my posts to “fuck spez” on the way out and deleted my account.

I’d much rather spend time building up the conversation over here where we know the users have far more control.

And now they are easily one of the worst predatory tech companies. Go figure.

Apollo refugee here. Wefwef and Lemmy are very nice :)
