Meh
I’ve downloaded all the porn I can
I got all the movies and shows that I can
I am working on getting all the music I can
I don’t care much for most recent media slop, it’s all garbage anyways and I have enough media to enjoy for the next 5 decades
Please drink a verification can
Came just for this
You spelled bottle wrong
Wooosh!
Did you miss my first comment? Liquor doesn’t come in cans…
Did you miss this ancient greentext?
Ah, forgot my password is hunter2
You spelled ******* wrong
Oh thank goodness, nobody can read my password 👍
> Adblockers still exist somehow
Google has been attempting to implement DRM behind the web for a while now… luckily no one is biting yet
Yeah, recaptcha is dumb. I was annoyed that I have to do it every 20 minutes while binge watching, so I installed a plugin to do it for me. So now an AI solves for me the test to check if I’m not an AI.
at this point just pirate the fucking thing.
no point in rewarding this behaviour with money, or spending any with them.
I hate this fuckin timeline
One such addon is Buster: https://github.com/dessant/buster
What‽ Okay I’ve not been using any streaming service since I found Jellyfin but what service interuots every 20min with a Captcha? Or any amount of watching with a Captcha?
By “20min” I meant “before every episode of Bobs Burgers”
Just saying, not even the government of China has managed to fully block VPNs. So if you really wanted to, there’s always a way. The only country that has successfully banned VPNs is North Korea, and they did it by disconnecting the entire country from the Internet.
Don’t they have exactly 1 Steam user, or something? They didn’t disconnect the “entire” country…
The access to the real internet is restricted to a select number of elites and foreigners. Everyone else uses a private network called Kwangmyong.
FYI, there are two random " / " in your URL that break the link.
The end part should be: Kwangmyong_(network)
They are backslashes to escape the parentheses. But apparently the backslashes just get replaced with forward slashes.
They aren’t necessary when posting on Lemmy. Clicking the hyperlink in your comment goes nowhere, but if you write the original link normally, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kwangmyong_(network) , the link works.
I remember Reddit used to break links that ended in parentheses. Thankfully, Lemmy doesn’t suffer from the same issue!
Or use NewPipe, free tube, YouTube with Firefox and ublock. Dur dur dur.
Server side changes like these will break YouTube without an account, even on NewPipe.
because that’s how the system changes for the better? or is that how those subservices get big enough to be forced into being noticed by fascist capitalists?
Good systems are immune to fascist capitalist normies dont fund them because they’re slightly less convenient due to having no funding
Shit, my Google account is old enough to drink liquor, so if them motherfuckers try that face ID shit on me, I already got my backup plan on Proton.
Don’t wait for them to cross the line. Just toss them over the edge and commit to proton. It’s heading thta way anyway. No need to delay
Proton however might not be a good place to go to. Both because of the company and it’s CEO and the political climate in Switzerland.
Compared to Google, i’d say it’s still way better. Personally I’ve moved over to Tutamail
Albeit a bit slow, I’ve been gradually stepping down from the clouds…
I’ll get there eventually, plus it’s a nice bonus that I recently acquired two 4TB hard drives and one 2TB…
INB4 we start having to evade roving bands of wardriving FCC goons to connect our pirate radio mesh networking node just to watch Peertube over TOR.

Of course. They know you are a adult human target, so they show ads. They needed that verification stuff just to oust adblockes, nothing else.
I’ve just been copying youtube video addresses into duckduckgo, no ads.
Can’t go back to work because you were replaced by the device that made the video you were watching
Come to think of it, it can handle leaving comments under the video too. And watching it for you - you might as well just read its summary. And it can create avatars to react to the video on other channels. There’s really no need for you to even be here.
Oooh oooh the government be tapping on my VPN
Oooh oooh now I’m just as good with my left hand,
Ooh ooh, I recline and I,
Oooh Ooh every single night,
Oooooh
