Mazda has the same pop up issue. Luckily online you can flash a program to a USB stick that lets you pick and choose infotainment hacks to apply to your car, that pop up, and the restrictions on using the touch screen when moving along them, and then you just plug it into the car and it auto applies.

Ask yourself how many people are successfully selling their products and services on Lemmy, for example

I’m still stuck on asking how many people are successfully selling their products and services on TikTok.

Like, what businesses are these and what are they selling? I wouldn’t imagine any of these social media platforms would be good for selling anything on. What’s an example of something I could go on TikTok and buy? I couldn’t imagine buying anything on any social media platform. I’ve never even seen anyone selling anything on any social media platform. How would I even do that if I wanted to?

The numbers presented on TikTok are absolutely 100% made up nonsense.

I see this sentiment a lot but I don’t understand, which small business are doing all of their business exclusive on TikTok?

It’s also very likely the divorce was the reason for the behavior. Getting lost in the sauce of that nonsense is a tragic but not unreasonable reaction to the trauma of divorce, or just being hurt by a woman. That ideology and the people who make money from it prey on weak, lost men for a reason. Thats what its designed to do.

It looks like a platform for generating and hosting personal websites/ landing pages or whatnot that you can host under their domain. The “digital soul pods” is nonsense but there there is an actual term for what i think the creator is driving at which is Digital Gardens.

There is actual a product just like this that already exists, though for the life of me I can’t remember the name of it. https://we-b.site/ Is one.

Just think of what Substack or Medium are for bloggers, but for a more versatile personal page about whatever you want.

Linktree is a (the most?) popular personal landing page for all your social media links and such. It’s functionally like a universal bio you can link to in the bios of all your different social media apps, and it contains links back to them.

There are existing free open source self hostable alternatives like Linkstack which I use. I’m assuming OPs project is something similar.

Supported genocide. Palestinian specifically. And not like “Supports Israel and thinks civilian casualties are an unfortunate inevitability of war”, but very unapologetically thinks the Palestinians should die.

I agree with your sentiment but to my knowledge Musk is a naturalized US citizen

I mean you can and they probably will. Unless something is easy enough to make yourself in your garage there will always be a free market to expand into and then extinguish.

Using browser exploits to steal commissions from affiliate links without even the user knowing. Let’s say you follow an affiliate link to a product and you go to checkout. When Honey pops up and tells you either that it found you a discount (or even if it pops up to tell you it didn’t find you anything) it secretly opens a new tab to the page which replaces the cookie in the browser that contains the code that identifies who to give the commission to. Instead of the person who gave you the link getting their commission, Honey gets it instead.

Then if you used PayPal checkout, they would also “find” you discounts but swap them out with lower ones and pocket the difference. For example you buy something for $10 and they find a 30% off coupon, but tell you it’s a 10% off coupon. You go to checkout with PayPal and they charge your card $9 but only pay the merchant $7 and pocket the other $2.

A post about a pre-built gaming computer? Im not sure how much more fitting to a general audience you can get. Given that the “general audience” for a community called “technology” is probably at least vaguely technical.

Then what would be the point of the general c/technology if we required every post to be in a more specific community?

I’m not sure that can be the case when it’s increasingly the case that buildings are built to be accessible by wheeled humans currently, often mandated by law.

This reads to me as a feel-good whitewashing piece so fragile white liberals can point to it and go ‘See? Prison labor isn’t that bad!’

That would be more of a white conservative thing to say. And that’s only if they’re not complaining that the prisoners are avoiding hard labor.

TubeArchivist is kind of an all-in-one software for you to watch YouTube videos in so its own web interface and is pretty heavy. But PinchFlat is very lightweight and is actually designed to be used with your Plex server being the medium you watch your videos on. So I’d recommend starting with the latter, as it’s kinda built for your exact use case.

I’d vote for Pinchflat. Tube Archivist is good software but very heavy.

Yeah no, neither of those. I think they’ll continue watching YouTube videos without the ads

He’s not forced to go to YouTube.com, he wants to watch YouTube videos. He’s forced to watch ads on those videos.
