I think it’s what we need to further push the envelope further. We’re not using the full capability of our hardware that we have today by even a longshot. There’s too much fucking overhead everywhere. And I say that as an artist who fucking LOATHES the shitty rendered music paradigm over the modular approach that we used to have. We see it everywhere though, wastefulness in RAM usage, no damn compression in anything natively, no thought on what data structures would result in the lowest footprint on the harddrive, no actual concern for using higher level langugaes over lower ones.

I guess they’re following the pissbaby toddler train culture that’s been growing in the techbro community as of late. The whole attitude of “We know better than our users, we’re going to aggressively monetize the shit out of it and nobody is going to care.”

Guess RedHat is going to learn the same thing that so many others have learned before them: Don’t piss off your users.

Translation: YT tests randomly pissing off users until they get fed up and leave for another site.

if a site tells me I can’t partake of their content with my adblocker engaged, I simply find my fix elsewhere.
