Those apple pie slices that came in the card carton thing? So crispy and beautiful.

GCHQ. Need I say more...

So Xbox bought the studio about 3 years ago and then just went 'nah, not profitable.' Fuck Xbox.

Reminds me of suicidelinux

This comic almost has an xkcd flavour to it.

To be fair though, part of the passengers were a father & son participating in a sort of father & son trip in which the son was adamant that he didn't want to go down in the submarine. He was literally scared. But the father dragged the son down with him, and sadly the son perished inside something he feared.

De-googled chromium works for me.

Back to the ol' times of Windows.

Ok that's enough internet for today. Never thought I'd be saying this on Lemmy.

That's gonna smell tomorrow.

I've seen Fedora lauded for being so responsive, and I'd probably go for that over the super bloated Ubuntu. I know it's not debloated either but that is preferable over dealing with Arch which needs a lot of tinkering time which eats into my work time.

I feel like this is the most concise answer in this thread.

Omega squared baby!

Applies for a position as director of marketing.

"Sorry, you're a Pisces."

Why Pisces!? 😭

The fact that OP is asking for support/help and this guy looks like he's a project that needs endless support tells me they're not a good match.

The long distance part is a bit of a message from reality to sort of say: 'Stay apart please...(for your own good, but if you won't listen that is fine by me, go spend a few years of your life learning what I meant)'

Because I'm looking at my phone.

But that's ok, everyone hates meta here.

"Intense prediction, study, and scientific research by scientists."

Article has none of these, just intensely flavoured waffle.

This is kind of really meta right now.

Why would I post anything about it? It's my vacation and I would be drinking too much to even bother posting about it.

I might even catch up on my planning and research (as a teacher it's a treat to actually develop as a teacher when there's time).

YouTube already did the math, as did almost every single company and corporation on the planet.

There's a lot more revenue in advertising than subscriptions, especially on a website that started off entirely free (so Netflix for example goes in the subscription model rather than the advertising model but that seems to have changed!)

There's a mass of people who follow up on these advertisements. The latest advertisements I've encountered on YouTube are really really calculated and well scripted. For example the digital dollar advertisements sound like they're going to save you from financial ruin. It's clever and it's working. Money is pouring in.

The Chinese consumers have been eating up ads like that for their TVs to power on for roughly half a decade at least. I'm talking Xiaomi. Chinese consumers are the perfect ad(shit)-eating consumer; so docile and they like to burn money (I mean, they do...literally).
