When cfw for ps3 came out you needed either a ti-84 calculator or an iphone to put the firmware on the console. I had an iphone so installed ubuntu on my pc so i could dual boot ios and android on the phone then replace android with the cfw. I never even knew there was anything but windows back then.
My statement was far too broad for it to be “setting a bar of entry”. YouTube is trying to squeeze its viewers for every drop they can without having uploaders and im obviously not talking about the little guy here shoulder any of that cost. Who in your mind is responsible for the cost associated with lets say a Mr Beast video? Is it Mr Beast or is it the viewer? I think it’s both.
Youtube is squeezing one party really hard while pretending the other party doesn’t owe shit to keep their monopoly. Start charging uploaders. If YouTube needs to up what they’re earning because of things like bandwidth cost and what not make uploaders cover some of that cost. They’re a business making money off of the platform so charge them.
They grow your food and usually make shit you need to survive because they can be taken advantage of. This creates a culture where they don’t always have as much or access to the same things urban dwellers do. What a condescending statement to make.
The freedom to run their own country whether that’s into the ground or into prosperity its the right of the vietnamese to self govern. How you correlate colonialism and democracy as the same thing is interesting.
