No, I just explained that nobody will move out of the platform because everybody's there. Where are you going to watch your favourite USB gadget reviewer that only uploads on YT? Over time means nothing until there's actually comp

Youtube doesn't f*** care. Where are you going to go watch your favorite content creators? Oh, they only upload on our platform? Thought so. They can do whatever they want and they won't lose a single user. In fact, I wanted to ca

Yeah, I don't understand how people say the heavy push towards Edge, crappy addons and pervasive analytics is some middle-manager that needs to increase their performance metrics, and not an executive order coming from the top. As if N

It's their loss. To be fair, they had to create a pretty massive and intrusive censorship system to prevent the widespread Western propaganda from entering their borders.

So? It's good that we have a "representative" of the CCP on this website then. It can't only be a US/NATO-aligned echo chamber. There's people from all over the world here. And more than two sides. Unless you a

There is nothing interesting or crazy about my statement. Microsoft sells software and services and has done so for the past 35 years. They started getting interested in people data recently but it is not their CORE business. How is this co

Yes. I use Brave Search and I hope they add a paid tier, which I think they have confirmed they'll add at a later date. If you don't pay, you are the product. Simple as that.

Nonsense. The black hole CGI was made with the help of Kip Thorne, a friend of Nolan and a theoretical astrophysicist, who ever published a paper from his research on what supermassive black holes actually look like. Why do you say it looks

If you're serious about this, add a paid tier. Until it's free, I don't trust you will not ever sell my data to make bank.

Yeah but it's from that same philosophy that Google Search is useless as it optimises for the first result. There is no search engine that searches literally for what you asked and nothing else. Search is shit in 2021 because it tries

Some people use the computer for leisure as well. And some of these even enjoy computer video games. Crazy, I know.

I agree, @xdennis owns it. It doesn't matter what's written on the blockchain, it's the majority (50%+1) that decides who owns what.

The GPL is a virus, by design. I'd go so far as to say if Linux didn't exist, the GPL wouldn't be so common, and we'd prefer less restrictive licenses such as those from the BSD world.
