websites loaded faster in 1999 than they do today. web devs increasingly suck at their job and we end up loading half the internet every time I want to read a news article.

internet became fast, but instead of faster load times, we got animated UIs.

hyperbole obviously, but not entirely wrong.

am I the only person who sees this as a webdev problem and not ISP problem? I don't want my website to recursively load the entire freaking internet with Russian nesting doll dependency loading.

when did we stop caring about optimization and good technical design?

someone correct me if I am wrong, but I believe these mini brown outs you are talking about are officially called Jitter and are measurable.

Jitter is a big issue for IP based telecommunications and was a bigger concern than Mbps when I was implementing them in the past.

I think they do if it means more, and more reliable funding. see patreon and in video ad content. artists and creators are already having to fund directly,

this. i’ve spoken to 206 creators - comic book artists, movie makers, video artist, digital artists, music makers.

on an nps score:

- building relationship with their audience - 9/10 - monetizing their audience through the same channel - 7.5-8/10

fully hackable. they give you for shell access over USB, and it has exposed io ports for custom accessories. they encourage you to play around with the firmware and expand its capabilities how're you want, it is part of the product design and intention

my has stove gets WAAAY hotter then my mother's electric range. both faster to temp and overall heat. mothers stove is 4 years old, mine is 6.

yeah, this isn't caused by qealth inequality. it is a separate issue, but not in housing g shortage. housing isn't a fixed sum game in usa, we have plenty of space and materials to build. the issue is that we do not allow for building to be built in the right locations in the right volume. zoning and local laws are the reason.

let's be honest. it isn't for security. security is just the hand they wave to prevent people from tapping their walled garden.

significant difference between the quality and stability of the two tents. the one in the article looks like a stick will tear it asunder.

I'm surprised more content creators do not upload their content to other platforms. the video is already made. is yt really the ONLY monetizing platform outthere?

YouTube is the best monetized platform for videos. TikTok is notorious for paying terribly. I don't think Facebook pays much either. You pay Vimeo to host videos on their platform.

The other alternatives like Nebula and Floatplane paywall all viewers, and doesn't seem open to new creators without a viewerbase.
