current solution to adblock: - use youtube site directly as a front end - Context Command EXecutor extension to open context menu - open in mpv still feeling out invidious, but yeah we'll see. wild that my phone is better for ads atm

CCEX: addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo... if you use a firefox fork remember to symlink native-messaging-hosts: gitlab.com/NamingThings... about:addons > ccex > preferences

also if you wanna use flags like --auto-window-resize=no make sure your mpv is updated, some distros' packages are out of date (mine was) mpv.io/installation/ fruit.je/apt

idk why i started writing this as a how-to guide in the second person lmfao

the sponsorblock script is cool github.com/po5/mpv_spon...

still have to worry about setting playback speed too high for the streaming rate. if i just care about audio --no-video is great, but i wonder if there's a good way to switch up the resolution on the fly

The straights are not ok

Girl: hey do you have any advice about my relationship Uber driver guy: ok but what if you had sex with me instead You could not torture this out of me

orange lounge!!!

against my strong urge to be an obscurantist, i will provide the sauce (this is mostly for my own selfish reasons so i can listen when i go through my skeets [vom] later). i didn't appreciate this album nearly enough the first time i listened a while ago.

i need to listen to more swing rhythm music - as long as i can avoid the PTSD flashbacks of playing in jazz band it's very enjoyable

my analyst doesn’t know what a PB HAR is it’s all over vro

anthropology underestimates the extent to which the subjects of its study are self aware duplicitous poasters

Update on this lovely never ending saga

somehow today I ended up explaining subahibi to 5 coworkers in a meeting today and someone looked it up and found the phrase “abhorrent sexual content”

i should probably feel more shame about it than i do lol

the world is a vast agglomeration of violent abstractions and intersecting oppressive systems some rich white guy from the global north: ok but have we considered how this makes the functionally pacifying source of cultural reproduction mildly more inconvenient for me to access

hopefully this bout of youtube being as openly hostile to ux as possible will be enough for me to break my addiction

invidious is fine but feels held together by duct tape, is a chore to use, is actually more difficult to block certain elements like shorts, and remains reliant on the base of youtube.

the reformist in me genuinely think free file hosting should be a public service, and that there should just be really robust APIs so people can just choose their preferred front-end

it would never work, moderation would be a nightmare, you'd have to be draconian with rate limiting and the like, but idk

youtube is just so obviously the only game in town and it fucking sucks. the ideal would obviously be a decentralized protocol blah blah blah you've heard it all before and it will fail for all the same reasons the rest do

it could be paradise but it's really just california etc

It’s nice how I made it through summer into fall wearing hoodies the whole time

Dawg make up your mind

I know the screenshot shows a different link but 1) they actually sent 2 takedown notices before for both links 2) obviously it’s the same image

i like the angsty samples at the start of midwest emo songs

Pragmatism claims that the philosophical impulse begins when one encounters problematic situations, a failure that forces one into reflection. I can confirm that this is true because my life is a recurrent series of failures.

in my head it was a lot more quippy and less dour

Yesterday was a really really good day. Felt like I was beaming w joy at points, mentally stimulated, and had high energy. Today just kinda sucked and felt no motivation and frustration.

just realized my phone can wirelessly charge and I’ve had a Qi charging station sitting next to me for the past 4 years with an extra open spot

College was cool because it let me be a coddled baby without adult responsibility for a while so I could figure stuff out, but guess what? I’m still too stupid. Guess I better apply for grad school.
