Why not?

If i am going to be supporting creators I think YT premium would be the way I would do it.

YouTube Premium is super helpful in distributing money automatically to creators without needing to think about it.

I have many many creators I tune in and out of I am not going to be trying to manage all of their patreons and trying to manage all of that.

Honestly I have to much crap already, 99% of merch is just garbage IMO that i will never use and don’t need.

If you buy premium your doing both.

money has to be backed by the state

I think the point if Bitcoin was to challenge this statement.

As long as the developers don’t force their political views on people using the software I really don’t see an issue.

You could argue they aren’t doing it today but what about tomorrow?

Well I would say everything is open source. If something does change that you don’t agree with you can just take the code and build your own. (Obviously with blackjack and hookers)

Maybe I am misunderstanding, but continue watching is only for resuming media. If you stop a show or movie in the middle.

If you want to go to the next episode in a series you want to look at “Next up” section.

I disagree, digitizing is what is saving a lot of the media. You can save hundreds of thousands of hours of videos and many games in a single 20TB drive today. You couldn’t do that without digital technology.

What VPS service?

Does it matter how many files are in each torrent?

I would think a 100 file torrent would be more intensive than a 3 file torrent.

How does that work, does the downloader just cycling though seeding torrents or do they all stay active? I feel like there would be so much torrents over time it would slow everything down.

Is the book one just text or is it also audio?

Thanks for the very detailed breakdown down between the two.

Piracy Shield aka The Great Firewall of Italy.

Yeah but that is video, if you have 99.9% of the file often times it plays just fine.

Wouldn’t torrents be able to solve that issue because everyone is sharing with everyone else?

The last peer might only have 10kbps upload but as long as the other peers are sharing with one another everyone can pull down 10kbps because that is how fast new data is getting sent to the swarm.

This seems to happen alot. I always wondered if it is really a peer or some weird spoofed peer that just tries to give you hope before crushing your dreams.

You know I never thought of that… but yeah that would be a good very very very very large number.

Like throwing puzzle pieces in the air and getting it to land completed.

That has been my experience as well.

Not saying it is perfect but it does seem to be somewhat accurate.

Many comments are saying you can remote start this car with the key fob. This subscription is only if you want remote access via the cell network.

I guess you can stop paying your subscription.

My ads only come on when it is the absolute worst situation to interact with my device.

Holding a basket of laundry???! Oh better play and ad.

Are your hands muddy from cleaning out a gutter? Better play an ad.

You handling raw chicken??? It is ad time!!!

Their are ways to avoid YouTube ads. YouTube is my favorite platform without ads.
