Don't presume I'm from US, I'm from country where downloading anything for own use is legal. If not sharing.
I've cancelled Netflix and other streaming platforms. Bought NAS.
Why would I pay for Youtube, lol?
For US people I totally get it, (btw US youtubers have a lot more money from ADs than other countries)
But for the rest of the world? For example here in EU (CZ) we have 5x smaller median salary than US. And yet we pay basically same money like you for Netflix and other streaming platforms. Actually more, because all platforms use Euro not USD here.
Also Steam games are usually more expensive for us than for US.
And there are still a lot of people who pay for Netflix and buy games on Steam.
So please, youtube premium is not worth it for us really not.
I mean you can ask them

chat of NoName group skids doing some DDOSing, they pool their bots by community of like-minded people (Russians supporting current government, murder rape etc. you know)
True, CEO's yacht doesn't pay by itself.
I'm curious if somebody from Slack could comment how much the acquisition changed Slack technologies.
I have first hand info from Avast - Norton merger and turning into corporation which doesn't value good RE talents was ridiculous and I've worked in corporate before, but this was just another level.
Middle management and up, their technical knowledge ended at turning PC on, hehe.
Btw they forced everybody even devs/RE guys into switching from Slack to Teams.
But still I have respect for original owners who build this AV company from 0. Too bad over the years it turned into this BS, where gathering and selling people's data is a normal thing for them.
At least there are guys from ESET, which is where people really care about fighting malware.
add "aa" and widget will also disappear.
Guys sometimes you overthink stuff.
What's keeping me, (as an attacker) from setting up phishing domain with same logo for BIMI?
People, don't forget to properly set all these checks for DNS failover.
I saw companies got scammed, because they used default settings in Exchange Online.
And attacker just made the DNS "unavailable" for brief moment and all phishing emails passed. Because MS server responded with DNS "temp error" and pass all emails as not a spam.
(detailed: received-spf: TempError (protection.outlook.com: error in processing during
lookup of <phished domain>: DNS Timeout)
and DKIM is checked on domain of sender's SMTP server, in this case attacker's server used for phishing
)
Then I had the great experience with MS IT/security support, people there can't even understand how emails works, very funny and sad experience. I hope outsourcing works for them.
What do you mean, one system is SI units and other is, ehm how to put it kindly, weird for weird people.
It also because north Europe has one of the most toxic social services in the world, kidnapping kids 24/7. That's basically their job.
Madlads if using proprietary software with phone-home functions to host pirated movies.
Let's see what would happen if for example Apple started charging $5/month or better yet per 1 use, any Apple services on all iPhones. Starting 2024.
Win10 in professional use turned me into Linux user.
Sorry but I always lol'd people, when their box stopped working because of pending win update, ridiculous.
I'm running a lot of Win builds on VMs for debugging etc. and it's enough for me.
Lol UK, country where when attacked, your only legal option is to lay down and let attackers to rape/rob/murder you.
If you survive, you will get acid into the face. Nice.
And police can't do anything, because they don't have guns too.
I'm from EU and I think UK laws are ridiculous. You can't allow anything to law abiding citizens to defend themselves.
Pepper spray is a banned weapon, the best UK joke I've ever heard.
What are you talking about? What country in EU ?
Because for example here in CZ, there's a lot of firearms. But guess what, you must pay for a gun license and have a doctor examination with possibility of psych. evaluation, then a gun license exam is really hard also practice test of gun handling and shooting is pretty hard and not cheap.
So you will think twice to get it and you really don't want to loose it.
Basically turning gun owners into the most law abiding citizens there is.
If you're talking about countries like UK or similar, where you can't legally defend against attackers and biggest cities are controlled by gangs with kitchen knives and acid bottles. Even police doesn't have guns and can't arrest them, cuz racism or something.
GG EZ.
What ADs? Install uBlock.
Lastgen lunatics should go glue themselves there, please guys.
For my amusement, I presume you're from US or UK.
How much do you usually pay for a house project?
For comparison, I've paid around $2000 for whole family house project, it's not just plans but also heat-loss computation, heating systems plans etc.
Country CZ (EU).
It's two story house made of "bricks", with gas+wood+heat pump heating systems. I would say pretty classical here. For ~$270k, not counting the property.
Also soon there is starting another round of EU subsidies in range of $50k paid upfront for houses with solar panels, green roof etc.
I would like to have Ivo's head (founder of seznam.cz, windy.com and sold Melown startup for a few hundreds of mils )
Not gonna happen, Microsoft wanted to buy them in the past, owner/dev is creator of seznam.cz, one of few search engines with own tech, which for years had more users than Google in CZ.
When Microsoft aimed for Bing to be better than Google, they've actually flew to CZ and asked the seznam.cz CEO to sell his company to them, he said no :D

American healthcare :coffee emoji:
Signal privacy-focused messaging app aka treasure trove of metadata for NSA.
This is UK we're talking about. Where only legal self-defense is to lay on the ground and let yourself be raped/killed/mugged, any violence against attacker with a weapon and you will get lifetime sentence basically.
Ridiculous stuff like this is why I'm cringing everytime any apple fanboi appears.
Are you dense? Apple and all other major companies are cooperating with FBI/NSA/CIA all the freakin' time.
These things they throw up is actually smart play from these global police agencies, so sheeps like you feel safe.
(Android is the same thing)
US healthcare rules is like Tiktok rules.
Rule no.1 Be rich.
Rule no.2 Don't be poor.
