If they do that and Adblock doesn’t work anymore, the solution is quite simple - stop watching YouTube. Sure, there will be some content creators that I will miss. Maybe it will be time to move to Nebula.
Yeah, you could tell he was a horrible person by how he gave Alex Trebek such a hard time.
There is yet one more alternative to pirating, and that is to simply not play the game. I’ve been so much happier since i stopped consuming mass media. No cable, no streaming.

Telecaster build
(lemmy.world)
This is not the first partscaster I've built but it is the first Telecaster-styled partscaster I've attempted. I have learned the following lessons:
- Neck was bought from a no-name brand on Amazon for about $50 bucks - it's actually quite nice. 14 inch radius, two-way truss rod adjusted from the heel. looks like Indian rosewood. if you are willing to put in the fret work and want to save money, a cheap neck with a two way truss rod is the way to go. you can fix almost any kind of neck with a two way truss rod and get it dead straight.
- Body was bought from aeguitars.com. Allegedly it's alder but it seems a bit too light and soft for alder. I suspect it's poplar? The body shipped quickly to me but had a lot of off-gassing smell for a few days. The finish looks nice but the neck pocket is NOT tight.
- pickups are the EMG-T set. the neck pickup did not fit into the pickguard (also a cheap no-name brand from amazon, I picked it for the pattern). Cheap parts are nice but be prepared to get work with a file or Dremel.
- A telecaster is (counterintuitively) harder to build than a Strat. It's a very nerve wracking process to position the bridge.
- If you're used to building Strats, don't forget the a Telecaster has a SINGLE cutaway body. Don't drill the strap button hole on the horn... ask me how I know.

I'm a professor and require students to submit typed homework as either docx or pdf format - a student wrote their paper in Word, took a screenshot of it (including their desktop), then saved the screenshot in pdf format.
Yeah but Customs is at point of entry whereas Security is at point of departure. So Security would not have caught contraband rotten fish.
Isn’t part of the charm of memes the shitty compression artifacts?
I don't know if this sort of thing is allowed, but if outsiders can donate money to his prison commissary account, I will definitely donate.

I feel like we shouldn't let them get away with this...

... in good fun, of course. although I feel I still don't understand the Fediverse well enough to see how we can start a cross-server meme war.
“Ensign Tucker, fire phasers!”
“Caaaaaptan, I got no fire… I got no fire captain”
As much as I appreciate Skeltor, the cat would have worked just as well.
This is why I don’t tell anyone about my problems. I don’t want your empathy; I want a fucking solution.

The Taiwanese boxer Lin Yu Ting who was also DQed by the IBA with no evidence also won gold. Her coach thanked JK Rowling, saying “most people probably didn’t know or care about women’s boxing. Now the whole world knows Yu Ting and Taiwan and that she is a champion.”
