In Islamic teaching it is said that there are 2 other life forms. The first one is Angels, they are created from light. The second one is Jinn, they are created from smokeless fire. Jinn is like human being, they need to drink, eat, have sex, have family,etc.

I don't know how to prove that.


You could take a picture of an Angel and a Jinn.


If there is filters/moderation.


There are, but only for using IP of large corporations. If you put 12 seconds of a major label song in your video review of an album, that video belongs to the major label now.


It is really interesting how YouTube can detect short snippets of movies and songs but there are many full audiobooks illegally uploaded for years.


Movie and music studios are far more litigious


It's a lot easier to automatically detect a match to 1 specific thing than detect a match to a completely novel thing that offends sensibilities in a similar way to other things.


There are basically always filters of some kind, though not necessarily the ones we want. The bigger the target that filter represents, the more effort is spent breaking it.


The filter you want is named 'uBlock Origin' :)


Indeed, and the Revanced apk customisation on Android, and SmartTube on Google TV.

I've not seen an ad from Youtube for probably 10+ years on my devices (since whenever Vanced made the apk customisations popular).


I don't need Revanced as I already have uBlock Origin.


For YouTube on a desktop OS you also want Sponsorblock. On a mobile OS, you want Revanced/Morphe as it integrates Sponsorblock into the app.


> For YouTube on a desktop OS you also want Sponsorblock.

No. I don't. uBO suffices. Maybe with some additional rules and lists which aren't in its default setup.

Maybe it also depends on the sort of content one watches, but I tried, and it did nothing for me, except one extension more running. Which I tend to try to minimize.


Did it block sponsors?


That's the thing. I rarely watch, just listening to music doodling in a background tab.

I think I remember some sponsored crap in 'der8auer' or something like 'linus tech tips' eons ago, but I don't watch them anymore.

So I can't really tell, but for my use case it seems redundant.

I also remember having imported uBo-lists from somewhere, allegedly enabling sponsor-blocking somehow. But that was another install. I don't have these anymore, ATM.


Sponsorblock can also skip non-music intros to music videos.


Didn't Revanced get replaced by Morphe?


How is me installing that going to help prevent Facebook hosting unlawful adverts?

I barely visit the FB feed these days, about half of those visits being a notification that turns out to be someone's birthday.

Unlike FB themselves for the content they host, I find it easy to avoid them without needing the help of a filter, because on the rare occasion when I find myself being sucked into scrolling down the feed, this almost always stops within 3 items because that's how quickly I find the first utterly irrelevant item owing to how Facebook keeps trying to suggest (and advertise) nonsense.

The filter I want to see in the world is the legislative kind, the "Meta delenda est" style. This is of course *not* what Facebook would want: spammers want to break FB's filters, and FB would try to get past legislative filters. I count FB as a spammer trying to put ads into every third message you try to exchange with your friends.


Without ublock origin internet is so dirty.


Does it mean we are surfing our galaxy? I mean we are not in the same exact location any second-lapsed?


I think it needs Disney's HaloTile. So he can walk the whole house in Vision Pro in his apartment.


I don't think it is a survivorship bias if most people survive from COVID19.


It looks like Javanese call that banana as Gedhang Kluthuk (Stone Banana, direct translation). The owner can use it to make a super delicious Rujak Cingur.


Will it make our sky "cloudy" most of the time?


Hell is exist but it is not full of mopeds.


Of course, mopeds only runs on the vestibule, then lucifer and its friends wait on bigger and noiser bikes.


Let's see if they increase the new product next September.


Let's see if Apple can spin up a company to make memory.


They havent 'spun up a company' to make anything else, so I doubt it. Apple are not a maunfacturer.


Apple messed up since the memory is integrated?


Well it means nobody can avoid their extortionate upgrade pricing anymore so I think that decision paid off well for them.

The first thing I used to do when getting a Mac Mini was ripping out the memory and sticking in the max I could get. For a fraction of Apple's price. Some of them even had more memory than Apple offered itself.

I know there are also benefits to the soldered memory like the huge bandwidth but still. That matters mainly for very specific workloads like LLM inference.
