I don't know what the future holds for Odysee now that LBRY is dead. It is the closest to a viable YouTube alternative, but it still uses a lot of JS from Google (though it's still viewable when disabled), and apparently the CEO claimed that they really don't care about free-speech and they might add stricter content policies once/if they get a sizable user base.

@djsumdog @gabriel Probably should've said "least bad". Of couse, conservative talk show hosts shill it so that's a huge red-flag there, but at least as of now, I can watch their videos via MPV which is why I usually choose the Rumble option when someone uploads to multiple sites.

@gabriel I've heard that Rumble is actually the most privacy respecting video sharing site right now, not including decentralized networks like PeerTube, provided that you either block the third-party JS or watch the videos via MPV.

@Indigo I never played any of the games outside of a demo for one of the winter games on DS back when you can download DS demos through the Wii. I never saw it as a big deal. I was only three years old when the Dreamcast was discontinued and we never owned any Sega consoles, so seeing Mario and Sonic together like this didn't make a big impact for me.

@sun I think more people should start packet analyzing games while the game is still live instead of waiting until the last minute. I feel like people don't start packet analyzing until it is almost too late. Case in point, the Nintendo Wi-Fi games weren't analyzed until mere months before the servers shut down.

@sun @coolboymew You could have the live services federate with each other and compare and copy each other's leaderboards, but it probably wouldn't be a perfect solution.

Nah- he was second. Woody Wilson gave us the FR and IRS in 1913. They needed more apparatus first.

@beardalaxy @SpurgAnon Depends on the optical lens. The one I have right now works fine on my bed sheets.

@waltercool Google, Microsoft, and Apple didn't become monopolies because of the free-market they become monopolies because of the government. Facebook started off as a DARPA project. Google is a similar story. And Microsoft and Apple hold power due to "intellectual property" laws.

It's so annoying when I look up people I like in the Fediverse and their accounts have been suspended for being opinionated and outspoken. 😞

Then I don't even know how to reach out to them.

Make a note of syzito.xyz if you have problems. We'll look after you.

@gabriel Everyone is looking for the silver-bullet solution that will fix everything when it doesn't exist. Every time you bring in a possible solution, people will dismiss it saying "that's just a band-aid solution" or "not everyone can do it" when that is not the point. You need multiple solutions going on at once and the process is gradual.

@xianc78@gameliberty.club
I wholeheartedly agree. Some institutions are too crucial or too embedded to abandon all together.
You'd need some flavor of "retake & reform" for many institutions that have become so corrupt to be more-or-less useless.
People don't like to talk about that because it's hard and requires sacrifice and a longer view.

What I appreciate from this crew is that they do have two very solid mesages: we need to experiment when it comes to solutions, and in some circumstances maybe the old(er) ways are just best.

With that said, I'm very grateful he hosted a conversation with many great guests who I respect a lot, despite having disagreements with him and them on various things.
