yeah that makes sense. i was thinking maybe youtube had servers to decide what chunks clients would get, maybe by looking at whether or not they are premium users first. but anyway youtube still needs a way to differentiate between ad chunks and video chunks, otherwise we would just be able to skip 10 seconds through all the ads. surely that can be exploited somehow.

does this mean stuff like yt-dlp will download videos with ads in thrm as well?

my face when i signed up for lemmy.ml 2 months ago for fun and now they’re being called 5 different political terms

(their sign up verification test was “what is two plus two” back then)

I forgot too. I use Wayland now anyway

good enough, musk?

edit: wait the actual logo looks basically the same as this but without the orange ring

alright now we’re gonna have quite a big discussion as to what “x server” means. x11? twitter?

“guys x servers are down!”
“have you checked your .xinitrc? did you start x?”
“whats an x innit racecar? the x servers are down!”
“how do you use x without knowing what an .xinitrc is… oh”

meanwhile reddit gonna rename themselves to “wayland”
