Most of us are aware how geoblocks are one more reason people nudge towards piracy. Well, I didn't knew that companies imposed geoblocks even on free content.
Ever since Nova Launcher was acquired by Branch, many users have had privacy concerns.
Truman never wanted that. He flew around knowing that his nukes gave him an advantage over the USSR. From this paper, it is clear that Truman wanted to maintain an atomic monopoly and as for Joint Chiefs of Staff, they didn't want to share the nuclear secrets with any organization including the UN.
A bit of context, India has basically three communist parties, two of which compete in the democratically electoral form(and one even governs a state currently) and third is Communist Party of India(Maoist). The latter is officially banned by the state and there have been numerous pitch battles between government and the Maoists in the past.
Get your history correct atleast. East India Company was in charge of India until 1857 and squeezed it dry. It was basically an early blueprint of modern day capitalism and imperialism.
Youtube Music's interface is a cluttered mess and I much preferred the spartan UI of Google Play Music. It took much time for the former to reach feature parity as well. Oh, and now they shutdown their dedicated Podcasts app in favor of merging It into YT Music. It is a disappointment, to say the least.
Did you intend to say GNU/Linux?
Wasn't there a post earlier detailing country wide metrics? I think India had quite a lot in there with nearly 15% market share in the country. I wonder what is the most used distro for desktop users.
Since Distrowatch only tracks clicks for that page, it creates a positive feedback loop for MX Linux(which was top of the list last time I saw), I think. Hardly I have ran into anyone online who uses that. Meanwhile, I know dozens of people IRL who almost correlate Ubuntu with coding and have it installed but this is purely anecdotal.
Remote Monitoring. Reads more like something a malware would do.
Many popular sites have dropped it. New sites often don't support it in the first place. In cases they do, it's a truncated version. Only a snippet/topic is visible and rest relinks to a browser. It is still better than nothing but the halcyon days of RSS are gone, IMO.
Yes, you are right. Google could if they really wanted to. After all, they bought their Gemini thing(the merits and demerits of it might warrant a separate thread of it's own) when they saw everyone was scrambling in that direction.
I used to be on Newpipe in the old days. I liked it's simple no frills UI. Ironically, I can still choose my desired video quality(like 720p, since I am on mobile data) but on official Youtube app, I only have/had three options - Low, High and Auto. No way to set an exact video resolution system wide, it could only be done per video. These constraints make almost any third party client superior to the official thing Google is providing.
Wait, blocking subtitles of all things? TV shows and films often get entangled in copyright issues, which sometimes make them regionally available only, but subtitles! That's preposterous.
