Are your monitors all the same resolution, refresh rate and size?

Thanks Peter!

IIRC the French reactors are all nearing their end of service life and'll be decommissioned soon.

What definition for piracy are your relying on?

The illegitimate procurement of media.

where did you source it?

My ass.

Does DMCA even have a definition for this?

Can't help you there, I'm not American.

I've not argued any of those points. Just that not watching ads on YouTube is piracy.

In the UK, piracy isn't a legally defined term, and the way that I would define piracy as the illegitimate procurement of media.

but TOS is often illegal anyway.

Piracy isn't only a legal thing. It's just dealt with through the legal system.

I'm not modifying any of the content

Sorry, I was wrong. You are however circumventing YouTube's playing ads.

I'm a pedantic asshole.

You don't have permission to modify any of the content YouTube sends you.

Section: Permissions and Restrictions Point 2

circumvent, disable, fraudulently engage, or otherwise interfere with the Service (or attempt to do any of these things), including security-related features or features that: (a) prevent or restrict the copying or other use of Content; or (b) limit the use of the Service or Content;

Piracy is sharing content that you don't have the rights to share.

I'd classify watching something on piracysite.com as piracy.

I'd also class bypassing Netflix's login requirements to watch their catalogue as piracy. But I guess that's more a semantics thing.

Not saying you shouldn't block ads, just questioning the OCs comment. If you don't pay for the service monetarily or through data then imo it's piracy.

Isn't it? You're not paying for a service / product.

dismantling the brutal apartheid regime

No where does that say dismantling Israel.

That stuff sucks, and to add to your first point, I love hanging out with kids. They view the world in an interesting way that usually leads to funny out of context quotes about their parents.

But would I go up to even an acquaintances kid to talk? No. Since I'm a 199cm (🇲🇲6'6🇱🇷) hunk of man meat, I'd probably scare the kid and parent half to death.

The same goes for anyone, not just women. I don't have the right to make anyone feel unsafe and if I am, then it's my duty to walk away.

It's not my fault, or yours. It's just the way of things, and the only way we can fix it, is to respect everyone's feelings. Unless they're minimising your loss of someone, in which case fuck them.

If you look at every interaction with a Redhat developer in the context of them having KPIs / set work to do. The responses to non critical issues / MRs makes a lot more sense.

Not saying that it makes it any better tho.

I played a LOTR drinking game where you drank for either a landscape, precious or ring. I was late and picked all three, ended up doing something like 60 shots.

Though I don't really remember anything after the beginning of two towers, and I'm pulling that number out my ass.

IIRC some of the bigger banks / financial institutions use AI for fraud detections as well.

You keep saying waste, I would argue it's a byproduct. Like whey from milk.

I really want to be a part of good open-source projects

I get it, though I try to remind myself that perfection is the enemy of good. Especially in comparison to Discord which makes its money through [???] and is somehow only getting worse.
