You are missing the point that sponsorblock only works without AI because everyone gets the same video delivered. Once they have targeted ads of variable length and amount you need someone to watch your specific version of the video and do the tagging where the ads ans sponsors are. You could pay someone to do it for you but that is expensive and very slow. Or you can train a ML model to recognize the patterns and tag it for you hopefully pretty fast.
Why don't you drop the nebula subscription and pay for YouTube premium then? You get rid of the ads and get some extra features and can keep your curated account.
This isn't a solution for everyone, but those who can afford it could help making YouTube make money and keep it around.
I think I hate ads just as much. But I might cave in and start subscribing to premium again. I just stopped because they don't allow a family plan here in Korea.
Hey, I wanna know your preferred laptops, used is better and to run Linux on it. Something with at least 16gb and 512 SSD is good. Budget range. Thank you!
I was always happy with everything I got from Lenovo (mostly ThinkPads but also IdeaPad), both cheap ones, used and new ones, always worked without any problems.
I'm ok with the XPS 13 from Dell but I had some problems, they needed to replace the motherboard and when you hold it it bends a bit and does register a click on the touchpad.
I hated my Tuxedo laptop, very expensive and very bad quality, had to send it in to repair twice and after a year I gave up on it because it was so broken and bought a used ThinkPad.
If you think America is dependent on plastic you should visit Asia. Here is an anecdote which explains it:
I went to a supermarket to buy some food. I saw readymade duck meat and it looked deliciousdelicious. It was packaged in a transparent plastic bag inside of a hard plastic shell. I tried to take it but one of the grandmas who work there snatched it out of my hand and put it into another plastic bag. Then I went to pay for it and they put my nice plastic package into a plastic bag so it's easier for me to carry.
By that time my 200 grams of duck meat was packaged in four layers of soft and hard plastic.
Or bread, in Germany, Poland and Sweden where I lived before they put bread into a paper bag, which makes it stay crispy. Here in Korea the bread goes into a clear plastic bag, which then goes into a plastic bag for carrying. If you let in be in the plastic, once you're home the bread is almost soggy.
Paris police said 3,000 people gathered in Paris on Monday evening, at a demonstration against the far right, which made historic gains in the European elections on Sunday. Other gatherings took place around the country....
I remember those demonstrations against the far right in Germany just two month ago or something. Back then I was saying that if this is really an issue for people then they need to show it during the election by voting.
We're just now shortly after during the EU elections and who is the biggest winner in Germany? Yes you guessed it right, the AFD, the far right, being now the second biggest party.
Those protests don't seem to reach the people who then go to vote.
