I agree that YouTube is Google monopoly, but I I’ve been wondering… They handle massive amounts of data. Would any other non-trillion dollar company be even capable of storing, processing, and presenting videos on the same scale, with the same quality, and with what is arguably very good latency world wide?
What could competitors do to beat Google without hemorrhaging their money just trying the manage the overhead?
God bless America
Two things I love. Public access broadcasting and the EFF
Well said, and well put. Sometimes it feels a little lonely on Lemmy and the fediverse, but I feel good contributing to a decentralized web.
Same. And I’m gay.
I want this as a sticker for my laptop.
I’m gonna shill for FreshRSS and Feed Me. Been a fantastic combination so far.
Self hosting FreshRSS allows me to curate shit I care about. Even better, it’s private aggregation. Sometimes though, I miss the conversation around these topics. For that, Lemmy exists.
So I was listening to a Bloomberg Tech Podcast about this. Someone from some random media group actually said “consumer demand for ad supported content over netflix’s usual high production value dramas is up”
For some reason, that statement was both incredibly threatening and incredibly ominous
It’s 70 F here in Houston, Texas. It is also wet and disgusting outside.
Amen
What about akamai? Other CDNs and the like.
That is some high grade cope. Highly refined. 99.99% pure cope.
Agreed, but some solutions have a fairly binary answer. Extremism is a huge problem, but that is part on centrists tolerating intolerance and not taking a stance. There is no middle ground for racist ideology. There is no room for it in society. The answer to “I believe the Jews should be exterminated” is simply opposing it, "Jewish people have a right to maintain and cultivate themselves and their culture. To put it simply, for someone who wishes complete death for the Jews, the answer is not the middle ground. You cannot compromise and say “how about we kill half a Jew only?”. This example is stupid and has lots of flaws, but I just came off of night shift.
The fallacy of the middle ground. This is where most ‘centrists’ fall.
A friend of mind in IT suggested revouninstaller. I have never used it in practice but he says it might be helpful in this case.
That’s not answering my question. Crap or not, it is an important consideration.
