@m33 #LouisRossman would like a word. 😂

@cazabon @lauren There's a good video by #louisrossman here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0i0Ho-x7s_U, not really saying loads more than is already covered, but as usual, it's a good video by him.

Edit: He's also on Odysee if anyone has a youtube aversion (like me): https://odysee.com/@rossmanngroup:a/google's-trying-to-drm-the-internet,-and:0

🧵After a video by #LouisRossman, on whether or not #AdBlocking is #Piracy, I got some thoughts. (This isn't a response to the video, but I'll link it anyway.)

BTW., the thread lead to a blog post👇🏻, that's probably easier to read - with links and images in Technicolor™! (And no ads.😉)

To me, more interesting than if it's piracy/illegal is if it's ethical/right. And when evaluating something like that, I like to ask myself:
"Would it be ok if everyone did it?"

@astrid Propably they are with water and soap...

*Sees #LouisRossman advertising them with his infamous: "You don't want to wipe your ass, you want to clean your ass!" rant...

If you're even vaguely familiar with #RightToRepair , care about #ClimateChange #Sustainability and #PlannedObsolescence this is amazing news!

Credit where it's due ... thanks to #LouisRossman and many more for 10 years of work to finally have a major victory over #JohnDeere which was lobbying hard to stop farmers from having the right to fix their own property.

After ten years, John Deere FINALLY lost

FUCK YOU JOHN DEERE!

Today was my first day that I've planned out in 15-minute increments. I got the idea from #LouisRossman's recent video where he took the #AspieTest. Below are my thoughts:

- i got about twice as much done as any other day. This was planned, yes, but it worked better than I expected.
- i actually happened to wake up an hour earlier than expected, so this led me to treat my plan as more of an ordered to-do-list than a strict regimen. Not sure what the difference would be.
- my pacing was off. I put multiple computer related tasks back-to-back, then several more physically demanding ones with lunch smack in the middle. In the future I'll try to mix it up.
- at a few points I would start staring into space and worrying about other things. I quickly remembered that I've already planned out my day so a future me can worry about it. This was fine but imo sets a bad precedent - we've all had bad bosses. I don't want to be one, even to myself.

All in all, this experiment was a huge success. I'm a little scared - how much will Focused-Me accomplish? How can we keep his power level contained?

So, the very Global Progressives running New York, who want to implement State controlled Digital IDs and currencies can't even figure out how to set up a working Phone Line for residents to access an essential Public Service 🤣.
Other than strip clubs and State funded #Drag shows, does anything work in New York?

"Do it for the children" is the first sign that someone is trying to play with your emotions.

#LouisRossman says it perfectly in this clip:

"We do not give up the freedom of 99.9% of normal people, because 0.1% of the population are sick, twisted fucks!"

#Samsung loves censoring #LouisRossman, 'we had a server error' when he starts talking about #lawsuits towards #repair companies. It makes me laugh even more by the fact that they're using Unbox Therapy for the AMA which I think is accused of botting subscribers, I'm not entirely sure, and the fact that they say 'nothing is off the table'.

This needs to stop, honestly, #righttorepair means absolutely nothing due to these anti-consumer companies
