Seems like that would foil a plugin, but I think it would effectively kill video scrubbing, or simultaneous streams, depending on how that restriction was implemented. I still don’t see this working well for YouTube

Yep. YouTube must include a manifest with each video to tell the player what time ranges are un-skippable. Baked in ads were doomed from the beginning 🤡

Come on man, you’re breaking the echo chamber. We’re here to shit on Google, not give them more money

They’ll probably include a manifest with the video, telling the player what time ranges are un-skippable. A script could hook into that, and auto-skip them

I renew my domain name the moment they let me. No way I’m losing it to some bullshit like this

I use an Apple TV 4K. For self hosted streaming, I am running Plex on a Raspberry Pi, connected to a Synology NAS, which has my media library

If you hold down the escape button, it will deny all the UAC requests as they come in. It’s pretty satisfying to watch, actually

This is basically a modern AlphaSmart. Looks like they took some inspiration from that, too!

SpaceX is not publicly traded, so there are no (public) shareholders to be beholden to

I think it’s pretty stupid of the developer to have that attitude. I think it’s equally as stupid to advocate against using a piece of software because of that, though
