It used to be the worst app because Netflix was so damn good. Then Netflix took a shit all over their user experience and jacked prices to the tits so we cancelled them. And HBO got bought by Time Warner who is actively antagonistic towards streaming because the CEO just looks at their entire catalog as a tax writeoff - so the max app is fucking dreadful.

Then Apple decided to make things suck less and they succeeded. The one thing they screwed up is there is no way to disable that obnoxious auto-play bullshit at the end of each episode. All of the other apps are now so bad that we exclusively subscribe through the appletv app. My wife likes giving money to paramount for some reason - but at least if we do it through the apple app there are no ads.

looky here we got us a man who earned a 99 in cleaning out the shithouse. Grab a shovel, “Professor”.

I say we let them fight to the death to see which one is smarter. I’m putting extra money on the Philosophy Professor going on a rant about how physical combat has nothing to do with intelligence - and getting struck down in the midst of his soliloquy.

The problem is the old fart democrats and a few DINOs combine to make it so there just isnt enough of a voting block to actually make anything happen. It sucks right now but the whole point of congress is to require a majority consensus in order to pass legislation. Frankly the fact is it was structurally designed to be slow because the founders of the constitution were tired of King George and now we’re bearing witness to what happens when we need it to respond.

I mourn for humanity.

The only person I knew who really ate the Ayn Rand onion has fully gone off the rails. Last I spoke with him, he said the nurses kicked him out of the hospital where his wife was giving birth and was threatened with arrest if he returned. Also he voted for Trump. I’m still not sure how he reconciled that thought process.

That was a worthwhile watch. Thanks.

This is all extrapolated from google’s self published survey of how their users interact with their search results. Approximately 60% of users don’t click anything after a search. Personally I think that is because users have found their results to be seo garbage and not worth clicking on… but that’s just my opinion.

I do feel a dom/sub relationship with Linux right now as I try to build some flatpaks - so that is very fitting.

Can you change the password prompt to “tell me your safeword first:”?

That sounds nice and all but linux still is subject to exploits and the open sourced nature of it makes it an enticing target for state actors to include extremely well made obfuscated exploits. I dont know how to win here, tbh.

Well, I do think you’re wrong about quite a lot of that. So yeah that is in fact controversial. Upvoted.

But I agree websites are a bloated mess that shouldn’t be made on a giant javascript stack of unreadable unmaintainable garbage. It’d be cool if we got something more like applets. But then we’d have to design a framework that operates in a sandbox and is limited to only functions that are safe to perform on your computer without trusting the author and make it easy to write so developers can build it and… we’re back at html+css+javascript.

I think the big thing we need to do is fully replace javascript.

They’re worse in the business space too. Teams is crashing on me daily.
