That’s right, the tailored homepage isn’t present in Invidious.

I’m in the same boat of having educated the algorithm to fairly reliably show me things I actually want to see; I use my Invidious instance mostly as a backup for when the YouTube gods are in a foul mood towards Firefox or Ublock or the color of my shirt or whatever

I love going back and replaying Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy on my PS2; awesome memories there. I really want to try out the OpenGOAL project

I’m currently moseying through Okami HD on my Switch. I’m enjoying it, though having a 4 month old limits how much I can play

Google just wants you to submit to their authority and do things the way they want.

Invidious and Piped are great alternative front ends; no ads, no tracking, no algorithm, no stupid throttling.

Piped.video is the main Piped instance, and I’ve got Invidious running at ourtube.roguewave.observer

I just finished Lieutenant Hornblower and am thoroughly enjoying the series. I’ll be starting Hornblower and the Hotspur soon.

In no way did I cause what happened on January 6. I’m arguably not responsible for Trump taking office in ‘16, even if I did vote for him, because of the electoral college nonsense. More people voted for Clinton than for Trump, but he still won the election; does that seem like a fair system in which the individual people participating actually have any control or influence? If the people participating in a system have no more say in its outcome than those riding a rollercoaster, how responsible can they be? I could have voted for Clinton in ‘16, but I lived in Georgia at the time, so I’m confident my county would have come out in favor of Trump regardless of my vote.

Sure if zero people voted for Trump in ‘16 then he wouldn’t have taken office, but that’s all beside the point. A bunch of individual people made the decision to storm the White House on Jan. 6 because they have that sovereignty to make their own decisions for themselves; you and I may disagree with the decision they made, but no one else can be blamed or forced to take responsibility for something another distinct and separate human being did.

What if I voted for Trump in ‘16 and have since had the scales fall from my eyes and want him locked up in the arctic as much as the next guy? Am I still your enemy?

ABCDEF

Google sure is. Brave is a chromium-based browser - a browser that is built off of Google Chrome, so anything Google wants to put in their web browser to track you and devour your internet-soul is also in Brave and all the other “web browsers” that are just chromium skins like Edge.

Also, it was sent from a no reply address, so I can’t reply and continue communicating on the matter.

I’ll have Sir Patrick Stewart soliloquizing about space followed by a rad fanfare as I get breakfast.

Sounds pretty cool to me.

One day we’ll have faster-than-light spaceships and computers the size of a human hair, and we’ll still be making Doom run on them

I kinda feel like Wes was the enlightened 24th century child who is validated, supported, and taken seriously by people who want him to succeed.

Except for when the writers just have the rest of the bridge crew be mean to him (“shut up, Wesley”). He makes a really good point in “Datalore” (S01E13) when telling Picard that if he was any other officer and not a teenager, his concerns about Lore impersonating Data would have been taken seriously.

We did skip a lot of Season 1, so maybe that helped my perception of him.

Congrats on nabbing Brothers in Arms! That’s such an awesome album to put on and just vibe with

I’ve been Takeshidude since I was maybe 11 back on Lego.com

Feels wrong to have any other name

While I can’t say I agree with the political views of the lemmy devs (at least as described in this article, as I have no other reference point), I think that it shows one of the really cool things about the fediverse. So what if those guys over there are weirdos? I can take the ball they gave me and go play somewhere else with other people.

My memory probably is more of early Web 2; I was born in the late 90s, so I suppose I missed the really wild west days.

Flash games were great though; it seemed like every company that even slightly catered to people under 30 had a website with some game on it.
