Yeah, I'd like to see emissions attributed to the places where products end up, not where they're produced.

I'd like to try right a stick for movement and mouse for looking, but with a full controller that doesn't really work. And so far I haven't sacrificed a controller to saw off the right side so it can rest on a table with a similar hand position as a mouse.

100%. If it seems too innocent or self-aware it's Flanders.

It would, so they chose a jurisdiction that's unrelated to any involved party but doesn't have those laws.

When your "thermonuclear lawsuit" is so flimsy that you have to find a bully-friendly court first...

Which applies to far more than just car dealerships, a lot of "economy" is just people installing themselves as middlemen, siphoning off money from others' work and using it to protect their position.

repairs are not a matter of subsidies. Only new infrastructure is supported.

That's a big problem. If you incentivize a company to not maintain the infrastructure because you will pay for it once it's completely broken it will be completely broken.

Someone who is sponsored by an account seller, i.o.w. who doesn't mind breaking ToS but then seems to complain about others scripting, i.e. breaking ToS might not be the most unbiased and reliable source.

Considering the trust they've lost I don't think they've planned to do it this way. And if they didn't plan it, they assumed that their original plan wasn't going to result in much opposition, so that was the plan they wanted to go with.

I'm not saying a few people fucking over the rest is a conspiracy theory.

I'm saying that all those conspiracy theories people love to discuss are pushed to capture the attention of those people and have them think they're involved in something important and spend all their energy on that, so the assholes can keep on fucking them over without much resistance.

Just the boring one: That all the exciting conspiracies (and other stuff like "culture wars") are there to distract from the banal reality of most people and the world being exploited by a few selfish assholes.

It was time to switch to Invidious anyway.

Which will stop working once this is implemented, since it doesn't use a trusted browser to access YT. As will any kind of automated access. Search engine bots, archive crawlers, third party apps... anything websites don't like or know won't be able to access them anymore.
