I think part of the disdain is that YouTube was ad-free until they ran all the competition out of business.

Despite the name, it actually blocks a lot more than just sponsors. It can be set to automatically skip intros, outros, recaps, like and subscribe reminders, non-music sections of music videos, and other "fluff". It significantly

Yeah, same. I get through maybe 1-2 paper books or ebooks in a year, but I average 1-2 audiobooks per week , because I can listen to it while driving, walking the dog, cooking food, doing yardwork, etc.

I hope so, Nebula is great. +1 to reading, also. I used to spend way to much time on "junk food" articles & podcasts on the internet, but switched to reading more books & audiobooks about 5-10 years ago. Much better conten

Nebula and Floatplane both come to mind. Lots of creators on those two services. This Week In Tech hosts their own content, in addition to youtube uploads and other services.

Oh, you're probably right; I don't know what deals they have with business customers. I should have added "to the public" - I don't believe any B2C vendors still stock the Pi 1 or original 32-bit version of the Pi 2

Good for them! I know lots of folks are suggesting that this is aimed at preventing Raspberry Pi from going RISK-V and they're probably not wrong. But, on the other hand, every single Raspberry Pi to date has been Arm-based, and they s

I think this overstates it a bit. I know what hardware video encoding is, but I still think I'm part of the target audience for the Pi. I have several Pi's around the house that I use for various projects, and none of them have ev

I kind of like the idea of a simple tax system, but on the other hand it's one of the best levers that the government has for influencing behavior. As long as the tax incentives correctly line up with the behaviors we want to promote o

I think part of the reason for arduino's success among amateurs is better variable and function names. I have quite a lot of (mostly higher-level) programming experience, but I just have to take your word for it that that's a bli

I'm running Lineage OS on a Moto g100. Overall, I'm really happy with it. I have full control of my phone and it has the hardware features I wanted - headphone jack, micro sd, two-day battery, and a fast enough CPU that it never

Looks like it's read-only at the moment, but still pretty cool. It's dual-licensed as MIT or Apache 2.0, so it ought to be usable just about anywhere.

Why would that be a problem? Surely there are some designers willing to work for $200k.

Yep, I now have 3 incoming sponsors, and 3 outgoing sponsorships on github - perfectly balanced! There's a bit of a story behind the first sponsor, Zuplo: They wanted to sponsor one specific project of mine, express-rate-limit, and I

I was one of the recipients of this, $4 from sentry and $3 from codeconv. It's not a life-changing amount, but I certainly appreciate it. Thanks Sentry!

IMO, the PinePhone never had the specs to be a good daily driver. The Pro is closer but still not quite there. That said, there's plenty of other things that could be used for: a wall mounted control panel for your smart home, retro ga

How much would pine64 have to raise the pinephone's price to have one employee working on things like maintaining an up-to-date kernel (and upstreaming patches when possible)?

Honestly, being "willing to grind" might be a good thing to target if it's a good proxy for being willing to do the work . However, I agree with the general sentiment that almost nobody is doing the research to ensure their
