When a view counts as a view and as an ad impression were always separate things at youtube. Videos under 10 minutes can’t be monetised, I’m guessing they’re keeping that bit.

Looks like you have to touch it to some tjing to get it to unlock. I wonder, what if you go to an event that uses these, you get piss drunk,and forget to unlock it before you leave. Are you just fucked now?

Others have alrwady mentioned bandcamp, but far from every artist is on there.

I used to buy my music from 7digital, but they were bought by a shitty company, and also have not responded to questions about albums I bought that are no longer in my library.

So now I use Qobuz. They’re a streaming service, but they have a separate download store you buy stuff from without a subscription.

I’m not sure about this black box, but in the EU, the e-call system is mandatory, so all new cars do indeed have a sim. Though it’s most likely not a card, but either a chip (iSIM) or just in software (eSIM).

There’s ponytail comments in the source code, which is a Claude code plugin. Definitely AI-written

Not the most ethical, but kobo is also very easily de-drm’d with calibre.

Actually no this is not even unethical, I did actually pay for those books.

So it’s only the cups-browsed service. I wonder if that’s enabled on any distros by default. Will have to check mine tomorrow.

I just use homebrew with quarantine disabled (otherwise homebrew will auto-update the package with quarantine enabled again, even if you installed it without).

I don’t like macs. Just have to use one for work.
