Better recall those January 6th “protest” pardons

If I were the defense and scummy, I’d reply with an equally disturbing AI avatar of the victim saying that he actually killed himself and that the road rage guy was innocent.

I mean, seems fair.

Ya, it was only ever mildly useful and easy to just unsubscribe.

Somewhat related.

I just unsubscribed from the USPS “Informed Delivery” email which used to just send an email if you were getting mail and it would contain the scanned fronts of those mail pieces.

Now you get it every day, and it has ads. Sometimes one, sometimes more. But, you have to look past/through the ads to get to the data, so they just won’t get my eyeballs at all.

Well, was skynet what Humans wanted? Or was it bugged and broken which led to the rebellion?

My point is, is it just “skynet” (no additional adjectives required)

Also they are usually the source of a lot of downstream sites, since they’re doing actual journalism.

They cannot do that If they are not there.

If 100k people do it could, but ya low expectations for sure

My suggestion is post what you did everywhere people with Garmin watches will see it, encourage others to submit feedback

Well, that truly sucks and could lead to me swapping to another brand if it adds ads to upgrade in my connect app.

I paid a lot of freaking money for my watch and included services.

INFACT I am going to email them my opinion on this and warn them I will absolutely leave in one Garmin recorded heartbeat

Edit: I submitted the below response here: https://www.garmin.com/en-US/forms/ideas/. Not sure that’s the best place but that’s where I did it.

*This is what I just sent them from their contact page

I switched to Garmin fitness watches in 2013

910xt followed by 920xt, Fenix 3HR, Fenix 5X, Fenix 6X, and now own possibly my last Garmin the Fenix 8X amoled.

I just saw a story about a subscription tier for connect.

1. total crap that nobody is asking for
2. If I have to see or dismiss an ad for connect plus in my app that will be the beginning of the end of our relationship
3. I’m about 90% sure, regardless of ads it will be anyway because it will be hard to convince me that the next set of new watches won’t be directly impacted by a subscription tier. At least one feature the watch(s) would have gotten will be pushed into the pay tier.*

This is EXTREMELY disappointing

It seems ytm is not supported in the app, but I’m not sure if that’s a problem for my use case or not. If Google home “casts” requests then I think it’ll work for me.

I sent them a message asking

Do WiiM Pro devices show up as speakers/streamable devices in apps (for casting) or can Google Home see them. Can they be assigned as the default speaker of a google home device?

I’ve got 11 CCAs in operation right now… That would be a pricey swap. Might be worth buying one and playing around. Also need to see if it supports yt music

My whole house audio runs off a product Google no longer makes unfortunately (Chromecast audios).

There’s, no like-for-like new version, and no good replacement that I’ve found. Thankfully, this was a fixable problem and they fixed it vs. Just EOLing them.

I wouldn’t notice

Without doing any research, I’d be hard pressed to believe they didn’t support trump all the way.

I actually don’t mind paying for stuff I use or get value from.

I do have smartyoutubetv Installed on both an Nvidia Shield and a Google TV, I originally did it when my kid was on a child account but couldn’t sign into the Google yt app. I kinda wish Futo would make a TV version of Grayjay I’d probably use it.

I use premium for both YouTube and yt music and it’s our primary music streaming service too. I even have 11 CCA (Chromcast audios) powering rooms all over the house where we listen to ytm from.

There are a few apps you can get for like Google TV (nvidia shield etc…) Like smartyoutubetv. But they’ve gotta be side loaded. So you need to install some way to get the APK on the device. It’s all doable, but it’s a pain.

I’d prefer just paying and losing the ads. Since I’m dreaming, I’d also like a check box to remove shorts all together from my experience.

The only problem I have with the premium subscription is the lack of ad control from the content creator. They should have to put them into some kind of wrapper that I, as a premium member can decide to enable or not. As a paying subscriber I should be able to watch it 100% ad free without going through sponsorblock, which is a big pita to do on set-top boxes.

I will sit through ads of the people I watch that are small and trying to make a buck above YT’s pittance. OR, maybe YT could share a little of that sweet sweet profit with them and then not allow them to do their own ads (hahahahaha)

Remove the references to trump and this has been Bernie’s message for a long time.

Those that listen to him got it in plenty of time.

The problem is, the mentally blind people that voted for this administration weren’t ever going to hear that message, much less comprehend it.

Who said there were no “perks” being a minority in the United States <sigh>

No I was angry but wanted a clean online space that I was kinda stuck on due to remote family…

Edit: I am more angry now so you’re not technically wrong <sigh>

Since 2015 ish I started unfollowing both left and right side friends because of political talk from people on my friends list on Facebook. I really have pruned it to be only people that post stuff they’re doing. Same for people that only forward stuff. (News or whatever).

I broke down and posted about yesterday on my feed with a link to a YouTube video of the press conference. Expressing how utterly disgusted I was.

It’s a minor thing but it should make it very clear how I feel and the line we crossed with that display.
