I'm not logged in because I don't want any suggestions! I'm using ReVanced of course.

Yes, sorry, but I can't take something seriously if every paragraph begins and ends with an emoji. I know it's dismissive, but all my Facebook lunatic conspiracy theory alarm bells are blaring.

I've typed those letters SO many times. I remember being shit faced drunk in high school and getting a call from a friend who was installing Windows XP but forgot the key, because he just assumed that I could recite it. Which I could, and still can, 20 years later.

It's Chromium underneath, so using it increases Google's control over web standards

I have 170 albums in my Bandcamp collection. I have a lot more on my mp3 collection which I have bought via other means. Each album is maybe $10 on average, so that is around $1700. I have used Bandcamp for around 8 years after 7digital closed their EU store and eMusic became trash. So that's around $17 per month. Not a lot of money in my book, music means a lot to me!

So much this! I don't use Spotify, I buy all my music on Bandcamp. Sometimes I buy an album after just hearing the first song because I find it interesting, but then after a few more listens I realize that the album is not what I thought it was. However, I'm already committed because I paid for it, and it now sits at the top of my collection, so I continue to listen to it. Sometimes it turns out I find qualities in the music that I didn't notice at the first listen, and I learn to like it. Sometimes not, and I ditch it.

This was also the way I discovered music before Spotify even existed, I just never changed my habits (I just used other services than Bandcamp back then). I think more people should try turning off the algorithmic entertainment faucet that is Spotify and try committing a bit more to the music that they listen to. Also, a lot more money goes to the artists this way, Spotify is basically stealing from the artists.

This regularly happens for me in Kotlin due to inlined functions

Doesn't that make it the BEST bastardization of the book then? :)

I'm going to call it "eggs". A tweet is now an "egg" and tweeting is "egging".

But there's a picture of cheese next to the text!

Edit: it also says "cheese aroma" ("ostarom") in Swedish.

I actually don't have a problem paying for online services. I host my own email, I pay for Kagi search and I do monthly donations to Mozilla and Wikipedia. What I have an issue with is services that start out as advertisement based and then introduce paid plans, because now you still have all these shitty mechanics just for driving up engagement which results in unhealthy incentives for content creators and rabbit holes. I want a service that is for YouTube what Kagi is to Google Search. But perhaps that model is too difficult to monetize, I don't know.

Is that screenshot from this year? ARK came out 2015, so if this person had 2 years of playtime in 2020, then they basically spent 40% of their time every day playing this game. That's 9.6 hours every day!
