The cia need their mind control machine to make a profit
I go out of my way to follow the rules, like watching a sport even on the NBC website with their commercials, and then after ten minutes they say “you must sign in to your tv provider”.
So I get aboard my ship, put on my eyepatch and find the game in an Iranian server farm. I don’t want to be a pirate, they make me.
Trying to find the seasons of the One Piece anime that haven’t been uploaded to Netflix yet (and were taken down from Crunchyroll and Funimation) turned me into the King of the Pirates.
Kinda off topic but I’m actually mad that one piece (live-action) is good because i know Netflix will ruin it somehow. I’m still
about the WitcherAs long as they don’t fire the current showrunners, the show will stay good. At the most they’ll cancel it early.
If they fire Matt Owens or Steven Maeda, that’s when to bail.
“Early” meaning in less than the 20+ years it’d take to complete?
Can’t even believe I’m saying this but I’m sort of interested in seeking it out. I’m not much of an anime watcher but I like the manga and the early stretch of it is massively nostalgic for me
They’re condensing a lot of it so it’ll probably take 10 years to complete instead of 20. I mean the absolute worst case would be if they cancel after S2 now, so we’d at least get up to Drum Island I reckon. And like I said, I don’t think we’d get a GoT situation as long as Matt Owens is running the show, cos the only changes he did to the story (besides cutting stuff for time) was to better set up stuff in Arlong Park that’ll only pay off in Sabaody Archipelago, which are really good changes imo.
The anime has killed off my harddisks space because the only way to I could get the early seasons was in giant compilations yo-hohoho. There’s also apparently a remake/remaster of the OP anime somewhere with better animation that I have no idea how to find
At $17M/episode, I imagine they’re just going to drop the series in another year or two.
I’d be happy just to see how the hell they’re gonna do Chopper and Brook. 3 seasons would satisfy me, 5 would be more than i could hope for
it’ll be incredibly funny if the show somehow lasts long enough to get to the current arcs and we’ll get to live action gear 5
A VPN and a decent sized hard drive with Jellyfin is way cheaper than 12 different streaming services that either all have the same shit, don’t have the shit I want, or has ok original content that gets canceled after 2 seasons.
But its a very individualist solution. As soon as you try to expand the solution to a wider network of friends and neighbors, you dramatically raise your risk of being targeted for legal or physical reprisals.
Shit’s making me ready to kill myself tomorrow. No, Youtube adblock doesn’t matter, most of my Youtube consumption happens on the TV app with my remote. This isn’t about personally losing my bread and circuses, this is about how the best social medium we currently have is Youtube other such mediums like TikTok (don’t even use it, but recognize it as extraordinarily important and innovative). But every way the ruling class forces us to change our lifestyle based on their ads borders on life ruining. Because it’s not about the actual bread or the circuses, it’s about elevating the bread and circuses, making them bigger and thinner than ever so we feel more satisfied but more starved.
making them bigger and thinner than ever so we feel more satisfied but more starved
That’s what happened to the entire Star Wars franchise since Disney bought it: there’s more of it than ever but most of it is more forgettable.
“Enshittification” is the academic term for the phenomenon
This guy will just sheepishly retreat into the videogames he claims to hate on /v/. America’s reputation is so low that it’s fun to think that these guys not getting good enough TV and games means a world war has to happen, but in reality their butthurt doesn’t influence stuff like that, it’s just a narcissistic cope.
Also the content isn’t gone, they just have to watch ads. He’s just plain making shit up.

What is their endgame?
Why do you care? The hell are you going to do about it? You’re 4chan, You’ve been cheering on hellworld ever since you were born.
All they have to do is blame the Jews and you will be willing to DIE for the people that ruined your life, just so you can feel like you have power over something.
First paragraph could be a new site tagline
I just blocked their blocking popup with ublock’s “block element” feature.
Works fine but I can’t scroll down to comments or see recommended videos anymore. Loss of those features is probably an improvement though tbh.
how did u do this i tried but the rest of the site stays greyed out and can’t click anything. Can you post what you have in the “My Filters” ?
This first section is an older one I had when they first started this stuff. The second one I added yesterday. They probably combine in some way, I have no idea how the first one works someone here posted it when the first wave of bullshit ages ago.

Could you just use OffLiberty to download the videos locally to circumvent the ads?
I just click allow and close the pop-up lol, haven’t had issues with it blocking me from playing. I use the YouTube Enhancer extension rather than a dedicated blocker, maybe that’s why?
It’s been pushing me to consume more free content like podcasts and public domain audiobooks.
Is this dual power?
Replying directly to the image:
The endgame is for you to die!
id take this shitty version then the one theyre rolling on me now. Its a similar pop up but instead of giving me 3 videos to watch before an ad I have to wait a time before it lets me close out of the pop up and play the video…for every single video. Pulling up like 6-7 videos in background and then having to do that every time is bullshit. Im literally gonna not use youtube anymore. Is there like a nitter for youtube or some shit. I am not watching fucking ads on a desktop…
I’ve found that I can make the popup go away by pressing “F” a couple times, toggling out of and back into full screen. Might work for you.
i have this one too but it’s like 5sec. Not ideal but way better than watching an ad. My connection sucks i’m usually sitting around for at least 5sec for the video to load anyway
Is there like a nitter for youtube or some shit
invidious. but like nitter, youtube will occasionally break it, and instances will appear and disappear.
I haven’t seen this and i use ublock origin. Is there any context or other source
?I use ublock and FF across 4 devices and got a warning on one computer over the weekend.
if they get aggressive with it, it’ll just reduce my YT usage. like if I really want to watch something, I’ll open up a crap little chromium browser that does nothing but watch youtube videos. assuming ublock and FF don’t find a way around this.
slowly rolling out andf ublock doesnt stop it (maybe soon) which sucks ass.
uBlock will block it and it will stay blocked for like an hour, and then it will be unblockable until uBlock updates again, and so on and so on. It’s a contest of endurance between their devs and google’s IMO.
They are slowly rolling it out; the reports have been trickling in for the past few weeks. Last I heard was firefox users getting hit. Apparently not even uBlock is immune.
Apparently not even uBlock is immune
Can confirm, it sucks
You just have to keep updating it unfortunately. It’s messing up my custom filter blocks which is annoying
https://www.reddit.com/r/uBlockOrigin/comments/178yasm/youtube_antiadblock_and_ads_october_16_2023/
It’s a contest of endurance between the uBlock devs/open source community and Google. There is nothing they can do to fully prevent us from blocking the ad on our end, but they can make us keep changing how we block it over and over - I suspect this will continue until enough people give up on ublock and just buy YT Premium that Google chalks it up to a win and stops for a while.
I’m kind of worried this will burn the devs out. Not sure how much work this would be for all of them. Sounds pretty stressful though.
Have done similar projects and can confirm. It’s not mentally sustainable.
It’s worth noting that it’s not exactly the uBlock devs who are updating the filter lists. The people who make the filter lists are pretty separate. Then lots of adblock extensions use those same lists.
Ah that makes sense then for the update list setting they give you. Either way I hope you have less stressful projects now!
The filter list people do generally accept donations btw. If you go through the uBlock Origin list configuration, you can find links to the homepages about some of the lists. If they accept donations, I’m sure there’ll be a prominent link.
I imagine this is pretty thankless work, so if adblock has been valuable to you, you may wish to research donating.
Disclaimer that I am not socially or financially associated with any mainstream internet ad blockers or filter lists.
I got it in ublock but used the block element feature to block it. Now I can’t scroll down to comments or see the recommended vids but videos play fine.
Considering that suggested videos are all just repeats of videos you already watched and the comments are always ass I see this as an absolute win
Yeah I get repeats non stop. Wtf is the point?
I stopped watching youtube for entertainment when i got spammed with cookie thingy, although i’m a type of guy who will wait for 5 hours for torrent to download instead of paying 2 bucks.
Now i just catch up on invidious every week with pbs spacetime and wtyp
although i’m a type of guy who will wait for 5 hours for torrent to download instead of paying 2 bucks.
as you should
