I legitimately did not know this, thanks for the knowledge share! Can it follow playlist s of videos?

There's a few video game streamers whose commentary and remarks are so funny and well written I find myself listening to them more like a podcast than watching the video, so I'm often queuing up playlists and having the background noise while doing house chores and the like

Hilariously enough? I work for a telecom startup now.

Thanks for the trip down memory lane :)

If myspace gave us the canvas and an unlimited selection of paint colors, Facebook gave us a color by numbers coloring book and four pre-approved shades of blue, along with a small static shock whenever a color went over the line.

And you know what? As a guy with no kids If it takes parents getting mad at YouTube to finally get some sort of critical mass on giving more control to the end user how they interact with the platform (aside from obvious outliers like malicious/offensive/illegal content), I'm all about it.

I wish platforms would realize this. We're glad to use the platforms, just stop trying to herd us into doing it the way you want.

Maybe I'm looking at too rosy of an ideal, here though.

This isn't personal, I just find it increasingly odd when people in online discussions gripe about company not doing x, is then shown clear examples of x and coping back with "that's what they want you to believe" or when asking for an example, is given one and backpedal saying "that doesn't meet these new criteria that weren't up for discussion from the start"

It boggles my mind.

If you won't offer concessions when evidence comes straight from the source what evidence will you?

Funny (read: sad) that you should mention this

I'm not posting this to suggest it's a harbinger of things to come or anything like that, but...the events here are just too ironic to not be the result of us somehow stumbling into an alternate dimension (I'm not above ruling out CERN as a possible culprit)

I have Spectrum and have been fighting this exact problem for months. Trying out your steps now and hoping for success.

But you're right. I use feedly and have chrome extensions that's give me full articles in a readable fashion.

I would LOVE to visit some of my favorite sites and read articles as the site designers meant for them to be read. But all of the js and ad fuckery makes reading articles online an absolute goddamn chore lately.

So here we are.

RSS revival? Bring it on. I'll play drums.

"What the...why is my screen blac--is that a train-AW DAMMIT".

That person was me. The guy who installed the damn thing.

The progression from confusion, to curiosity, to realization that I had in fact...just played myself was kind of amusing in the moment.

Could you clarify this and help me understand your viewpoint a bit better?

No really I appreciate risk management but when it cripples your ability to make decisions, innovate or otherwise ACT on information that could help you be a more efficient team and the develoment team becomes a room full of people doing nothing but maintenance for years on end people leave and companies fail.

I just watched that very thing happen this year to my company for exactly that reason. Someone with the word "senior" in their job title was so risk averse that the market caught up, passed us and started eating our lunch.

God help them because I can't do it anymore, and writing on the wall says they'll be closing up shop this fall. I'm out the door for good at the end of the week.

But after a second read of the article I think the answer instead of being a flat "no", the answer would probably be more accurately answered with "depends on who you're asking"

Edit: instead of driveby downvotes, Id welcome some commentary on what was so incendiary about this remark to warrant swiftly taking the comment down into the negatives.

Going to either extremes are chuckleworthy too.

Where can one do this?

I'm using my example to think forward: an employee leaves due to workplace conflicts, and later (not to intimate this is the path I'm taking, I'm merely walking out the door, as my issue was a mere personality conflict not something that I can seek damages over) pursues civil action, a responsible export and archive policy from HR the way IT departments may sometimes be required to retain email messages for a period of time can be a benefit if the departed employee cites their interactions with an abusive manager for their departure and subsequent litigation.

Other commenters have referenced this as well.

I'm moving on very soon, but I've shared many of our interactions with management, management has even seen first hand how he openly insults other engineers.

Instead of doing anything about it, management announced we had been acquired and over the course of about 12 days slowly resigned leaving us with the new company.

New company promoted the bully.

Hopefully others speak up as I have and this new feature can help some people get relief from the guy.

Ever been to the talk page of a Wikipedia article?
