Exactly!

I have seen so many people say the 3.5mm port takes up room, and it is such a crock of shit. The space it takes up is practically non existent and it costs almost nothing implement.

Like literally if I’m making a custom circuit board, or even bread boarding, with a microcontroller of all the IO currently on phones a 3.5mm jack is probably the cheapest and easiest thing to implement. It’s a hell of a lot less of both than say a finger print scanner and I don’t see anyone calling for those to be removed despite the fact that many people don’t use that feature.

Indeed. I usually use 7-zip’s built in tool to do it when I need to.

You are allowed to record content like a broadcast though, which makes me wonder if that means that ripping is illegal, but piping it through a capture card isn’t?

Technically I’m half right and half wrong (I think). It’s not illegal to backup media that one owns, but it is illegal to break DRM/copy protection which is required to rip most physical media these days.

Suffice to say the legality of it is a cluster fuck, but the morality, in my opinion, is pretty clear. Fuck the corpos.

But it is legal in the country he lives in as well as the country YouTube is headquartered in.

Probably the one where I was in a relationship with the woman I loved more than anyone I ever have and we had an amazing life together going on adventures, making things, blowing things up, and generally just having fun with life and not taking it too seriously. Then I woke up…

I’m right there with you. I’m not super well off, but I have my emergency funds plus some extra and across a couple of close friends of mine I have given away $3k-$4k this last year because of life fucking them over with no expectation that I will ever see that money. The instant I made that decision in my mind the money was theirs to do with whatever they wanted to.

I have never understood people who expect to be thanked or paid back when being “generous” or charitable, especially with those close to them. It almost entirely defeats the purpose in my mind. I generally find being thanked kinda uncomfortable and the only thing I care about is knowing that they received it.

On the subject of buying an expensive car. If I ever did come into a lot of money, I probably would treat myself, but not to some shiny thing. Oh no. I would take the equivalent amount of money and use it to turn something like a station wagon or utility van into an absolute monster. That sounds way more fun.

I couldn’t disagree more, so I guess that gets you an upvote.

That’s OK. Now you know ☺️.

That’s not what I would infer from my statement and in conjunction with OPs. Neither of us want or are interested in children. I wasn’t talking about all people, I’m talking about myself, OP, and maybe anyone who doesn’t want children.

I think it would be morally wrong to bring a life into the world if I wasn’t prepared to put their needs and wants above my own and care for them to the best of my ability, and I would not be capable of doing so if I didn’t want them in the first place.

Not OP, but absolutely.

You are bringing a human life into existence a decision they have no say in.

Sure

Are you talking about ZeFrank? He is still putting that content out. Posted a video a couple of weeks ago.

Schrödinger’s word. Both new and old, lol

Interesting. Thanks.

Weird completely unrelated question. Do you have any idea why you write “Anyway” as “Anyways”?

It’s not just you, it’s a lot of people, but unlike most grammar/word modifications it doesn’t really make sense to me. Most of the time the modification shortens the word in some way rather than lengthening it. I could be wrong, but I don’t remember people writing or saying “anyway” with an added “s” in anyway but ironically 10-15 years ago, and I’m curious where it may be coming from.

I genuinely wish I were an aro ace. I am generally able to draw a lot of satisfaction, enjoyment, and contentment from pursuing my hobbies and interests. Unfortunately I still have a very strong drive/desire for relations of all kinds with someone I find mentally and physically attractive. Unfortunately being on the spectrum makes things even more difficult than it already is for everyone in that regard. Such is life though, we all struggle with something.
