not only is it only at night, but the fact that she says that shit in a blatantly loud and seemingly knowingly, obnoxious tone of voice, tells me it’s some kind of fuck you from somebody at Apple. Why anyone would want to do that to their customers, I can’t fathom, but I can’t see any other reason for it.

I only ever open YouTube links in the Brave browser, and I only use the brave browser for YouTube. No ads by default, even when signed in; speaks for itself. For all the people here who hate on Brave; only use it for YouTube. Its the best solution on Apple that I have found.

iCloud Drive is the best integrated, smoothest way to go for cloud storage. But you’re gonna pay, and Apple knows exactly how to price it so it always seems like the next tier is worth it, even though all of them are overpriced. I pay around $40 a month after taxes for Apple One because it’s the most cost effective option that gets me AppleTV+, Apple Music+, and 2TB of iCloud+. I don’t need 2TB of storage, I need 500GB; But that’s not a fuckin option. It goes from 200GB for $2.99 to 2TB for $9.99 with nothing in between. Apple TV+ on its own is $9.99 a month. Apple Music individual plan is $10.99 a month…but you can only stream on 1 device at a time, and they WILL give you constant annoying pop-ups and stop your music if you try to stream on more than one or if they mistakenly think you are streaming on more than one, which happened to me constantly, and fucking Senior Tier AppleCare support could NOT figure it out OR solve it. So I pay the extra 6 bucks a month for Apple One Family or whatever, which lets me stream on 6 devices simultaneously. I don’t ever DO that, but it magically stops that error that no one could solve. You also get Apple Arcade+, Apple News+, and Apple Fitness+, and I don’t use any of that shit.

The above also solves for your photo storage inquiry, which is also what I do.

Extensions I use for Safari are AdGuard, Wipr, Extract, Vinegar, Consent-o-Matic, Hush, and superagent. I use Kagi for search. Yes I pay for that.

Brace yourself. You’re going to get a lot of really mean and hateful comments in this community asking about Apple, so fair warning.

I always just thought I was a shitty, ineffective person. It didn’t even occur to me that it was a solvable problem.

I remember when you needed a VGA video card to play Space Quest 😬

My company would be blackballed if we did this

I like RGB, and I am not ashamed!

I broke my Boox screen, and I’m very upset with myself. I don’t even know how it happened.

It’s such an eye opener, and we ALL go through that stage, it seems like.

I have to disagree with your final assessment. Your primary that you saw in the first several paragraphs was utter shite. They were gatekeeping treatment because they are an asshole. They should lose their license for that shit. You are not to blame for any of this, honestly. I’m not sure what country you are in, but this is the fault of some bad doctors, and a broken healthcare system. EDIT: The part about looking at it holistically is right. Do some research on your meds, because I am betting some or all are negatively affecting your ability to absorb sodium. Sodium is very necessary for humans. I take B12 and magnesium every day for this exact reason.

Don’t give in. You have every right to live your own life, free from whatever burdens she brings to the table for you. I’m saying this as someone who spent the last 15 months living with parents, striving to cobble together some sort of understanding on their part and have a healthy relationship. I failed, and I’m ok with that.

Thank you, that explains it excellently. I understand now.

Excellent analysis, thank you!

Are you sure?

What you described are my biggest gripes with GPT4o. How much are you paying for Llama?

Your actions were the only correct option. This is the same way I snagged my Onix Reference 3 floor speakers. Someone on Facebook marketplace was giving them away for free because they belonged to the previous owner of their new house, and the speakers were taking up too much space in the theater room the new owner wanted to use for Netflix and yoga. I only had to drive 2 hours, but I got immediately into my truck. They also included a Velodyne DLS-3750R Powered Subwoofer, and an Onix Rocket RSC200 Center-Channel Speaker.

Let me rephrase my question: Please fall over yourself to explain to me why these devices are no match for Nvidia’s top cards like the H100/B100. I wish to understand.

Cheers

I am untethered, and my rage knows no bounds

We should engineer a virus to attack the fungus. I’m certain it won’t lead to a Last Of Us scenario.

Christ, it’s ALWAYS the fucking rich assholes!

This made me immediately sad
