What's the best way to watch youtube without adds on ios? (without premium).
  • ThePJN ThePJN Now 100%

    I think it’s an ongoing thing with Google blocking Invidious and them then finding away around Google back and forth. Probably depends on the instance and how much hassle whoever runs it wants to deal with.

    Lately I’ve found that, https://inv.nadeko.net/, works decently.

    Again, kind of fiddly if you’re looking for a pick up and play option but… ¯_(ツ)_/¯

    If you're cool with Invidious you can use instances via the Yattee app. (Not sure if it's available in every territory though.)

    [Discussion] What is the appropriate response to cars on roads?
  • ThePJN ThePJN Now 100%

    I’ve had a similar experience and tried to adjust my road related interactions with cars when walking or cycling not in an aggressive way but in a “I get to occupy space too” kind of way.

    Just because it’s the “road” and you’re in a car and I’m not doesn’t mean that you’re royalty. Take your time, exist, make them wait.

    “It's tempting to say we're stepping into a new world where all forms of media cannot be trusted,”…

    Yes, we are and it’s shit for the human mind to have to constantly do a double take on everything to make sure it’s actually real.

    “but in fact, we're being given further proof of what was always the case: Recorded media has no intrinsic truthfulness, and we've always judged the credibility of information from the reputation of the messenger.”

    Sure subjectivity, biases, and other factors skew things, that’s a thing. But I’m sorry, “Any information humanity has ever preserved in any format is worthless.”, is quite the fucking claim.

    The ability to filter comments actively as you mark them off as completed is magnificent.

    You mark a comment, it hides itself. Neat and tidy, fantastic.

    Why doesn’t Adobe do this, you ask? Who the fuck knows. Especially since you used to be able to in Acrobat.

    Why? Were people complaining it was too helpful?

    Adobe sucks but InDesign is still pretty much the standard; it begrudgingly does a pretty good job.

    Affinity Publisher is coming along nicely though. And yeah Scribus is not too bad either.

    Word being a word processor also sucks at document layout. Most software that isn't made for laying out documents suck at it, but people all try. My god do they try...

    Excel is okay as long as it stays in its lane.

    It is not okay if you’ve ever worked in a printshop or do graphic design and people send in newsletters or brochures or some shit done within Excel.

    Excel is many things; it is not fit to layout documents. Blegh.

    Is there a book/saga that you finished and cannot forget to the point where it gets harder to read other books?
  • ThePJN ThePJN Now 100%

    Charlie Huston’s “Caught Stealing Trilogy” or “Hank Thompson Trilogy”. One of my favourite modern noir pieces of work. A damn solid 3 book series about a guy who gets mixed up in shady stuff and can’t seem to find an exit.

    I actually found and read the last book first, not knowing it was a trilogy. Which made me think it was trés cool how things in the past were referenced and added more weight to the main character/world. Turns out it was book 3 of 3. 🤪

    All three made/make it hard to get into clunky modern pulp/noir style fiction since.

    This apparently isn’t an issue that a lot of users run into at least according to the ranting I’ve done elsewhere on the internet. I’ll try explaining this as best as I can. Skip down to the TL;DR if you’re good sans explaining. In previous versions of Acrobat Pro (eg: 9) it was possible to set a filter for the comments in a document (eg: Status = None) and then as you are going through and marking the comments as "Completed" the list of comments would automatically hide the completed comments for you. The current version (and last few versions) of Acrobat Pro (or DC as they call it now). Do not filter live as you change the status of a comment. You have to clear the filter and reapply it if you want to hide markup you’ve already dealt with. This is extremely annoying when you’ve got hundreds of comments to go through. Once again I refuse to believe that I’m the only one in graphic design or desktop publishing who could benefit from having this feature. TL;DR: Is there a good none-Adobe PDF reader/marker that will let me see comments and live filter them (hide them) based on a change in status from “None” to “Completed”.

    I’ve tried looking this up a few different ways but I’m not sure if I’m phrasing it correctly enough for the search engine robots to understand. Figured I’d try asking here. There’s a mod or two for GTAV and Minecraft that afflicts the player with random stuff happening at set time intervals (eg; raining chickens, randomize armor, remove inventory, teleport all mobs to player, etc). A few of these mods have integration with Twitch where chat can vote on which effect to give to the player next. I was trying to find a version of a mod like that but that allows another single person (another player, server op or just with a specific Twitch username or something) to be in charge of the random effects rather than chat. Wondering if anyone knows of any mods that let you do that?
