I don’t work on uBlock or even webdev but it doesn’t take much of a stretch to think YouTube’s servers will refuse to immediately transmit a video stream after the webpage is requested; probably waiting for a typical user to skip 2 30-sec ads.

It would be in the Downloads section of the Microsoft Store.

I might be behind on the Tech News, but did Qualcomm really win the license dispute with ARM that quickly? Over the Nuvia/Oryon IP?

I wish I had a source but AFAIK it was planned, but MediaTek might be reconsidering, since Qualcomm’s X Elites haven’t exactly sold very well. Adoption is too slow.

I wish they put out Mini ITX boards or NUCs. I’d love to mess around with these SoCs in Linux.

There’s no concievable way for Filipinos to move on from Facebook when it’s the only platform that’s mostly usable with free data. It’s been a while since I had to use it, but iirc the experience was mostly complete sans Post media. Comments loaded photos just fine and most people uploaded the post’s photos in the comments as well, as a courtesy.

So yeah, bar facebook making an incredible mistake, zuck’s trojan is here to stay.

And Reddit just got lucky that they implemented New Reddit on the Web and first-party apps on Mobile right as it took off here in Ph, so most pinoys don’t know what they missed out on Reddit’s more focused, simpler times and with the relatively recent death of the 3P API.

As I read somewhere on the internet, Reddit does have an interest in expanding the Philippine userbase. But I think it’s a vague plan at best and at some point, Reddit wont get the ROI they want.

Reddit isn’t new or dazzling like Bluesky. It popped off in 2019 and the pandemic helped it maintain momentum but it has the same problems Lemmy has right now.

The biggest subreddits are chugging along but its not gonna foster any small communities the same way a Facebook group will. and I suspect most lurkers will just go back to facebook eventually.
