This week, we head over to Midgar to clean a fire bombed bar, a mechanical spider, a three-wheeled truck from the 50's and a familiar, but oddly named bike.
Amongst all the things we cleaned, we discussed what it would take to get people to move over to platforms like ActivityPub and to leave capitalism behind in general.

Right next door to Matt Denton (aka Mantis Robot) who has set up a popup shop in "F36 Micro Magic Systems?!"
He says, if you see Ivan Miranda, remind him about the Lego racer challenge - apparently he forgot to bring his 3d printed Lego racing car to #makerscentral#YouTube#Maker
IT'S TIME FOR A SONY SHOWDOWN! https://youtu.be/9ZFqlimBOcs
The highest praise I can deliver a new phone, is that it's SO GOOD, it's worth flipping a one-year-old phone. I don't give that award often. Does the 1 V earn it?

About the whole #YouTube blocking ads thing: in theory, yeah, I want to pay for YouTube to have access to the content. That is a good model, a sustainable one, rather than setting an unsustainable expectation about how YouTube should work for over a decade, which they did. The problem is, I don’t want to give youtube money. I don’t want to give a privacy invading multibillion dollar company money. I would just not watch if there wasn’t a way to get around the bad experiences anymore.
I'm looking for tips on non-male YouTube tech channels.
A lot of the channels I subscribe to consist only of men, or have a non-male very few times.
I already follow @shannonmorse@simonegiertz#PhysicsGirl and #LauraKampf but only Shannon is tech centric.
Have you guys seen an AI video Ad where a generated realistic woman, comes out talking about AI, and giving you comfort that AI is here to help, and not to be afraid?
Oh, and it says your name at the beginning? "Hello Felipe, I just want to show you in a few minutes the positive effect of AI...."
I watched this in Italian language, on a Roku tv, I am trying to find the video in youtube but have not been able to...
As a content creator, I’m all for getting more money, but forcing users to watch ads isn’t the way to do it… I think YouTube would lose a lot of viewers if they enforced this on everyone, and creators would suffer as a result.
@thelinuxEXP@pocketlint As I understand it though, #PiHole isn’t perfect and struggles to block #advertisements 100% of the time… I looked into it a while back, and that was the most common complaint everyone was making, particularly with regards to #YouTube …
I’m hearing murmurs of YouTube blocking browsers that support ad blockers.
You know where you don’t have to worry about such things? Host your videos on a #PeerTube instance and use #Owncast for your live video streaming needs.
@owncast fwiw, I’ve found the DDG browser for Mac to be fantastic for avoiding YT ads
There are very few videos that won’t work — I assume the kind you can’t embed — but it mostly just plays the embedded version with no ads
Unfortunately, there’s no way to link to the DDG Mac browser without initiating a download (I have several frustrations like that with DDG) but it’s worked well for me. no affiliation
No, you're the one who after @sariash brought up #JHNStudio, had to check out their #YouTube page to view all their fantastically done #chiptunes covers of #KPop songs.
I would like to know how many youtubers have been paid by Asus to carry the same message that this is a Steam Deck killer, delivered with the exact same PR arguments. A little too obvious. #rogally#pr#youtube
