That reminds me of what Splice used to do

how inspiring…

There’s the well-known proposal[0] that’s been around since at least 2019 that advocated for standardization in the discovery of these kinds of files

Why are they casting such wide net? I’ve always wondered the same thing, my experience with adult content in the digital advertising world is that there’s a group dynamic that emerges and all but erases the “political will” that would cause certain businesses to make the first move in clearly defining what they carve out categories are, so it all backslides into fairly broad categories. It’s lot of heat in some scenarios and it paralyzes companies (motives varying depending on market position and situation of course)


I have trouble understanding how the opinions of the historical right to repair guy are surprising or even considered drama, it’s not drama because it’s not interpersonal gossip, it’s right to repair activism.


Yup agree, it's not drama it's literally us vs "them", with "them" being greedy ass corps making our lifes worse on the daily.


The channel has been about a lot more than right to repair. He jumps on every tech controversy that will generate traffic, including wading into drama between other YouTube channels.

> it’s not drama because it’s not interpersonal gossip, it’s right to repair activism.

He has definitely engaged in dramas that have nothing to do with right to repair activism, including weighing in on dramas between other tech YouTubers.

He hit a niche with right to repair and has produced a lot of content about it, but he has also ranted about a lot of completely unrelated topics. Does nobody remember his old videos rambling about women and gender topics, for example? This is going way back, so possibly before many new converts were introduced to his channel.

His channel has definitely not only been right to repair.


> Does nobody remember his old videos rambling about women and gender topics, for example?

No one remembers these because they don't exist.


This is gaslighting.


You need better proof than tiktok buzzwords. This isn't reddit.


Random side note. Why do many of these (presumably) LLM stamped out sites have the same aesthetic where they all need a pulsating indicator at the top as if to indicate some sort of urgency aesthetic?


Or the thing where they have a bombastic display of numbers, rehashing either emphatically trivial information, or information presented elsewhere, as if they’re the most important figures in the universe. e.g.

> *0* hedge fund owners. Zero

or including the date Spirit collapsed (despite already mentioning it earlier on the page!). Why not also include “*6* letters in ‘Spirit’” while you’re at it?


Templates need to be filled. Breaking template rules requires actual thinking.


You know the answer. An LLM wrote it.


assuming it's an llm site, the implication here is some action needs to be taken before private equity buys it for scraps (inferred from the homepage copy)

whether it's an llm, a template or bespoke made from bytecode doesn't really matter does it?


I agree, but I started noticing the em-dash usage spike.


i was one of the weirdos that used em dashes pre-llms but yeah it can def be an indicator


We may be getting off-topic, but I despise how LLMS made em-dashes a thing that people associate with slop posts.


it's because they were trained on lots of stolen fluff pieces in major publications, also part of why they have such an annoyingly positive tone


But without a sense of urgency the marks might stop to think first.


Have had some hiccups with payments not going through myself that ended up in server IPs being restricted but they were very helpful on the phone and service was restored in about 30 minutes after the call. Decidedly not ideal but has been easily manageable since.


Reroute where? Nonsense. If that was the case then the tensions wouldn’t be this high.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East%E2%80%93West_Crude_Oil_Pi...

Tensions are high because of all the trapped ships. Not because there's no alternative.


The Saudi & UAE pipelines combined can only carry around 9mbpd and are already maxed out, compared to an average of 20 through the Strait.


And? Reduced capacity for awhile raises prices, the Saudis can sit on some oil and have the US get rid of their geopolitical and economic rival.

Again, short term goal is to clear out the stranded ships and the war can resume.

Because the Iranian 10 point plan is so ridiculous even Trump isn't dumb enough to take it.


My assumption is that, by now, Trump just wants to save face and move on to an easier target, one that can't strike back. He's been preparing the US opinion for Cuba.

So I wouldn't be surprised if negotiations just... stopped, without anything happening. Pretty much what happened, if I understand correctly, to the economic negotiations with Japan, EU, Canada, Mexico and anybody else regarding US import taxes.


But there's no oil to gain in Cuba, no stock market interests, and no pushing from Israel. So, why would he do that?


Because it feels like a quick win?


That's what I'm saying. There's nothing to win.


> And? Reduced capacity for awhile raises prices, the Saudis can sit on some oil and have the US get rid of their geopolitical and economic rival.

That pipeline is a strike away from being out for months, if not years.

> Because the Iranian 10 point plan is so ridiculous even Trump isn't dumb enough to take it.

The whole situation is ridiculous, and Trump is overtly desperate to stop the nightmare at any cost. Calling something ridiculous is no argument, particularly when we are living in a timeline where stupidity reigns.


> And? Reduced capacity for awhile raises prices

That oil is being consumed somewhere, countries/industries will face shortage (in addition to the price increase).


That has a capacity of 7M barrels a day, so not an alternative. It'll lessen the blow a tiny bit but that's all it does


Ok. This is getting silly and on par with 'the straight is open; it is only closed, because Iran is blocking it' quip from Hegseth. Tensions are high, because there are trapped hips AND there is no viable alternative.


Wait until you hear about the Houthis.(or the fact that the pipeline is only a small fraction of the capacity of the strait).


All the proxies Iran arms is a good argument for continuing to attack them.


Got it a few years ago. In my 30s as well. God how it used to bother me, i’d have the whitest noises to the point where it depressed how loud it all was, white noise included.

Went to the doctor, did all those rounds. Once I saw the endemic existence of CBT and other psychotherapies as treatment it dawned on me that I might have to reconsider my relationship with this.

In reality I just got used to it and live with it. I have a tiny white noise sound that is always on my headphones while i work that is just enough and that covers me most of the day, but honestly even if I sit in an electric car that is fully stopped and it’s as loud as it’s gonna be, I notice it, absolutely, but it doesn’t really cause distress anymore.


I don’t think that is a an accurate depiction of ClickHouse. I don’t think they’re pivoting from their main data warehousing product at all. Probably making their cloud offering more competitive with other providers.


I haven’t used their product so you’re probably right. I’m biased as an AI engineer because I get contacted to help implement AI in existing platforms. While I admire the pivot the reality is what they have is already quite behind. Anything I make these days is old in about three months… You’d ideally want to start fresh and not have to worry about codebase that is years old.
