I have never heard of it although I lurk the major audio forums daily. From what I see on their site I think Reaper + free plugins will get you farther.

You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain.

well, you call it dystopia, they call it brainstorming :P

I unsubscribed when they killed account sharing and planned to subscribe just for one or two months per year to binge every show I like… but I may not subscribe again for a long time now, considering that these guys take their villain role very seriously, I mean it’s really hard to not dislike them right now. They’re like the Cersei Lannister of streaming services

Either they blatantly lie about the outcome of the password crackdown or they see no issues at all to showcase how mind-bogglingly greedy they are. I think I’ve read this week they claim that subscriptions increased by 6 million worldwide. You’d think that is enough increase in revenue for a while, but no, let’s increase prices now. Weird timing imo, unless they’re testing how far they can go

If it’s less harmful why on earth should it be regulated just as heavily? Of course I agree it shouldn’t be sold to kids, but what the EU did to vaping is a massive shit show.

I quitted smoking overnight thanks to vaping and then also stopped vaping a few years later. That was before the regulations though. I honestly don’t believe I could pull this off today with all the braindead rules and let’s not forget the massive price increase for liquids.

yup zero logic in his comment, still has 30 upvotes right now.

No it’s not. If an ad break comes up on tv and to avoid them you go for a pee or get some snacks, no sane person would call that piracy. It’s pretty much the same with youtube, I could just leave the room while an ad plays. Adblock just automates the task of not watching the ad.

Pretty much every sports game does not involve violence and people still rage like there’s no tomorrow. I’m pretty sure people will throw slurs at you over a game of yahtzee or something, as long as it’s online and there’s a ladder/ranks

“Can’t get worse at this point, eh?” Amazon: hold my beer

You’re not wrong but on the other hand if you only have morals if it’s easy then I’d say your morals ain’t worth shit

May be worth the 3 bucks if the freevee stuff is ad free too then. Otherwise they can go f themselves.

EU trying to kill E2E encryption for citizens while explicitly excluding companies and politicians is not exactly better. To protect the kids, of course.

Not a single vote for dark souls 3 or bloodborne? barbaric!

So would you say Firefox has settled down in the last years? I don’t like where chrome is going (not only privacy, the “dumbing down” sucks too) and tempted to switch back again. But it requires a bit of work

There is nothing that doesn’t use digital now, but it is difficult to see what is going on because none of this is visible in the statistics. We just don’t collect the data in ways that would help us understand what is happening.

What I get from that article is that it’s much harder to measure output/productivity of a digital service compared to physical goods, so productivity going down is more of an estimation instead of gathered data (?)

I was a Firefox user until they started releasing major versions every few days which broke addons. Not sure how it is today but it was a hassle for a few weeks at least. I switched to chrome because it was the next best option back then.
