Old_Dude@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•When people post YouTube links, is there a cool open source way to watch it on mobile without going through youtube, firefox, or downloading adblockers?5·1 year agoAnother option other than new pipe is to download a YouTube apk and the revanced app. Ad free YouTube is what comes out of that.
One jump, one whistle, and one fart was the highest level of entertainment at the time I guess. I’m glad human entertainment has evolved beyond the humor level of my six year old son.

Old_Dude@lemmy.worldto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•It's disturbing how we as a society are okay with ad companies weaponsing psychology36·2 years agoInteresting thoughts. I’d like to know how many people feel compelled to make a purchase because they see an ad rather than because they actually need or want something. My assumption is that this number is very low, but I can only speak through my own experience in my life and those who I’m close to. If someone has a sickness, I’m not sure we can blame an ad for their decision making. My wife is bipolar and has had episodes of excessive spending ($15K in a week once), but I don’t blame the name brand items she purchased or restaurants she went to, she just has a condition that needs outside help.

Old_Dude@lemmy.worldtoTelevision@lemmy.world•Amazon Prime Video will start showing ads on January 29th91·2 years agoAmazon is the last streaming service I’m subscribed to, mostly due to increasing costs and implementation of more ads with the others. I’ve replaced Netflix, HBO, Disney, and I guess Amazon is next, with Real Debrid and Stremio.

I just found this old link in my Drive just in time for Spooky Season!English3·2 years agoI’m assuming the ratings go from best to worst as super dope>awesome>decent>wack. Please correct me if I’m wrong about the first two.
Old_Dude@lemmy.worldto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•We should rename Solar to Patriot Power to make it palatable to the right38·2 years agoOnline, there’s always this division and blame on either the left or right. In my real life experience amongst friends, people are more willing to have a normal conversation about different opinions without all the outrage like I see online.

A show called Snowfall touches on a CIA agent working to bring in cocaine to the US to fund anti-communist militias in South America. Good show overall. Not the best, but interesting.
