So basically Google is “taking a stand” by increasing the amount of money they make off of his content, lol.
Does “de-monetization” simply mean Google isn’t paying him, or that they’re removing all ads (and revenue for themselves) from his videos?

1·3 years agoIsn’t all of it encrypted though? Like I understand physical access to servers is generally bad, but you’d think once the the things are unplugged it would be difficult to access the data again without bypassing encryption. I’m clearly not a software engineer though lol

1281·3 years agoI really dislike Musk, but I find it hard to criticize this when it generally worked.
The platform formerly known as Twitter is still running, and there’s no more $100 million/year data center.
6-9 months would have meant $50-75 million dollars. I don’t know what the outages and re-engineering ended up costing them, but that’s a ton of money.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•How do you even start with breaking up with your gmail?
81·3 years agoThe email I use for random website sign-up’s is an ancient hotmail account that I only check when I’m expecting a specific email. It’s like thousands of spam messages.
The more important things using my actual email are comparatively small.
Are you helping because you genuinely want to help, or are you helping because you’ll feel you’re “owed” something after you do? Whether that’s approval, friendship, etc? If it’s the latter, there’s a lot of baked in manipulation and dishonesty in your approach.
Focus on yourself. Help yourself. No one owes you anything and the only one responsible for you is you.

Technology@lemmy.world•How do people find good information on the internet these days?English
92·3 years agoHonestly, niche YouTube channels. The problem is sometimes you don’t want to sit through a 30-45 minute video to find the information you’re after.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is your "inexpensive" hobby that turned out to be expensive/ you gradually invested lots of money into?
19·3 years agoProbably gardening.
A few seed packets and some dirt turns into building nice cedar raised gardens, filling them all with great quality soil, expensive liquid fertilizers, various irrigation systems, and so on. And I can’t just haul all that dirt in my sedan… But hey, I have 20+ tomato plants, and about as many different pepper plants every year.
It’s honestly nowheer near as expensive as some of my other hobbies, but on the “a lot more money than I expected” scale it’s up there.
