  1. YouTube removed the most number of videos in a single quarter in Q2 2020

    Removed all the real data, real covid information, Hydroxy information, and of course anything they disagree with. I cannot wait for the American ban hammer to drop and destroy TwitterGoogleYoutubeFaceBookLiberalMeda Propaganda machines.

  2. When you're operating in a grey (or even "black") area on customer's privacy and alike.... this is what will happen to you when you don't comply to "common" and decent rules of business and 'serving customers'. Just burn on your blisters Facebook!

  3. oh boo hoo; you need to get consent to scrounge for info about your users now.... Good, hasn't Android had this same "limitation" functionality for a couple versions now? they SHOULD have to get consent to gather personal/habitual information...

  9. "..child safety even if it meant removing content that does not go against its policies" What douchebags!. * We ban you because you break our rules. * But we don't break your (vague) rules. * We ban you anyways. I usually watch videos about old technology, animals, and vintage games, and they still get the ban-hammer. However, Youtube still promotes shady companies, scammers, and such. For example, Wish. Most of the Internet is moved by pay-for-scam, if you want to scam, then you pay, if you don't want to scam, then we could ban you anyways.

  12. Awesome! By the way, these "collect and share data" options are coming enabled by default in almost every app/program and game for any platform, that should be illegal in the first place! People don't check the settings, so they don't even know about it.

  14. Exactly, I'm amazed at how people easily accept tech companies BS explanation. I've personally seen nature channels, channels that provide unbiased discussions and even tech hardware review channels just get demonetized,banned or deleted out of thin air with only vague explanations if any from the media companies. This is insane and people have to speak up about it.

  16. How is any of this a bad thing? The user having to consent/be in the know about what the Facebook app is doing on their phone? If that's getting out of hand for you, I think you're on the wrong side of common sense.

  17. It is the same game... Think graphic setting slider like PC games - this is the only difference between the two. I think the delay is down to the big difference in IO speeds between the older hdd focused XO/PC and the newer SSD based XSX and what that means for the way the game is made.

  18. It is the same game... Think graphic setting slider like PC games - this is the only difference between the two. The thing is that in reality is not that easy. Even when you try to load textures, effects, and many more, it takes a lot of time to get these rights. I rather have a great Series X game than having both (even though I'm not planning on getting a Series X in at least 1 year).

  22. I just don't understand why they need so much power. I want my next gen cards to be more powerful, of course, but 850 watts is more than twice the power of my current system. Graphics cards should be getting smaller and more power efficient at the same time! Especially as mobile gaming becomes more and more normal, eventually people are going to expect somewhere near that kind of performance on a tiny, passively cooled GPU. This seems to be going like the opposite way of the future, at least in terms of power efficiency and thermal design. I guess I'll wait and see what the requirements are for the 3050 and 3070, or whatever they call them, before I decide on my next GPU. Hopefully, if I decide it's not worth it, at least maybe the price on 20XX cards will drop.

  24. Maybe try pushing those creators to publish their content on other video sharing sites. We need a good strong alternative.

  25. It doesn’t. Sometimes it detects you’re wearing a mask and prompts for pin, sometimes it fails, and sometimes it just sits there and thinks deciding if you’re wearing a mask or not and then eventually prompts for pin. Missing the fingerprint sensor.

  26. I personally know of many factual informational and research videos and even long time YouTube accounts that have been removed (videos) or frozen (accounts) for discussing the nitty gritty details of COVID-19 related pattens and so on. One person, in particular, is a researcher and not just some random “Joe Lunchbucket”. The reality is all of the talk about freedoms and free speech in America is largely baloney. If your message is contrary to the beliefs or agendas of ________ (take your pick - technocrats, big brother, global elite, etc.), then that message is going to be silenced, declared hate speech, or minimized in some other manner despite its truthfulness. These actions have clearly been on full display with YouTube, Facebook, and others in the last few months. So, I’m sure Q2 was a record quarter for YouTube, whether using humans or algorithms to do the removals.

  28. It's doing a fantastic job. Keep the guy mis-selling himself as a doctor that has previously killed 3 people convincing everyone that covid is cause by 5G and is a fake pandemic. However ###### anyone who dares make a cartoon/anime with some blood. Youtube has a massive challenge on it's hands, but it needs to stop pretending like there isn't a problem still to solve.

  29. Samsung has a wide gamut of devices that do fit that price range. They may not be as powerful or as future-proof as the SE, but they do definitely have some eye candy devices that meet the <$400 criteria. I don't think eye candy is really a big factor at that price point. The SE is butt ugly.

  31. Meh... compared to stadia, XBOX game pass ultimate is a hell of a deal. The only thing is they need to do is to bring Game streaming to as many platform as possible. If only Apple don’t be a jerk as they are, it would have been on all major platforms already.

    It can be placed horizontally or even upside down if spacing is allowed for the exhaust. The way non-liquid thermal systems are designed in most computing technologies have zero orientation needs.

  33. Vertical Tabs are coming for Edge soon(ish) iirc, and I turned off tab previews for Dev. With a lot of tabs it's too much visual clutter for me. The tabs groups look promising, especially as I always have a ton of stuff open during work.

  34. How about letting us set the tab bar to the side / vertical tabs? Years ago this was possible with a flag but they removed it and stubbornly refused to explain why in the issue tracker when people complained about its removal, and then locked the issue to prevent further discussion. And no, some extension that shows a redundant set of tabs in a separate window is not adequate.

  35. I kinda side with Apple on this one. Sure their fees are outrageous, but Epic signed the contract so they're bound by it. If they don't like it, find another store.

  37. It is the same game... Think graphic setting slider like PC games - this is the only difference between the two. You can't just slap a "graphic settings slider" into a console game as there a more things than graphics at play e.g. I/O speeds play a large part in open world gameplay

  47. Microsoft reprimands Apple in Epic court battle

    Take issue with credit card companies' transaction fees and you could knock a substantial amount off all fees taken across all platforms. Perfect example, imagine if credit card company is Apple where to use it, there's 30% tax for every transaction. Their (credit card) rule, their way. A credit card company won't stop you from using other credit cards and paying them from the same bank account, or using cash sometimes, and credit other times, or even together on the same transaction
