Fortunately Sync just redirects to a link on my home instance. I know I saw a GH issue on what you mentioned but I haven't checked it in a couple of months.

Edit: found it. Still in discussion phase. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2987

Platforms can now insert ads directly into the manifest file into totally random timestamps. The file chunks' names follow the same pattern as the original video. You cannot filter or prepare for it. Probably that will be the future. (AWS MediaConvert can do this for example.)

Interesting! Alcohol doesn't have a barcode there?

Here it does. But the self checkout lamp will go to red instantly and a clerk has to come to approve your age.

Sync can do that.

Yepp, that user was my first and only block ever. Yes, we get it. YT bad, Piped good. It was so annoying.

That was my pet peeve too. I installed it some years ago. Months went by, I've used it. Then I saw a new version came out. Okay, time to upgrade! Oh, dump the DB, delete everything, install the upgrade and load the DB back? (Or some similar shit.) And do it every time when there is an upgrade? Okay, uninstall it is.

I understood that reference!

And there are many other examples too.

A lot of car manufacturers have brands for the upper class. Like Mercedes -> Maybach, Toyota -> Lexus, Seat -> Cupra. And tyre manufacturers have lower-end brands, like Michelin -> Kleber. Or, even better: a lot of store budget brands for milk, cheese, sausages etc. are manufactured by a big name brand, it's right on the packaging with the little letters at the bottom. (Manufactured by: XYZ Big Name Brand Ltd.)

I think you might not understand what they are joking about. They say there isn't a second season because they don't consider the one we have to be a "valid" season, because they think it was bad.
