Oh boy, look at any post from hexbear or lemmygrad. No holds barred supporting Hamas, killing of civilians and terrorism.

Are those recalls gonna happen next quarter? No?

Then they don't care.

I moved to YouTube premium a few years ago, family subscription, to share with up to 5 people. YouTube is my main source of entertainment and the 15 bucks total (or whatever the conversion rate is) is less than 90 minutes of a movie in a cinema, nit even including transportation and snacks. I get my news, tech news/reviews, tutorials, documentaries, inspiration and laughs on there. I watch it while getting ready in the morning, on my lunch break and for a longer while in the evening. I share it with 2 other people so it works out to around 5 bucks a month. And the creators I like get a big portion of that.

Sure, around 60 bucks a year might sound a lot, but it's the only service I pay for (except the 2 bucks a month Disney plus trial until December). As a small bonus YouTube music transformed my Google home devices into a multi-room audio Sonos alternative for under 1/3 of the price.

I still use NewPipe on my phone for downloads for offline use and yt-dlp for content I want to hoard.

I would definitely do. It's totally out of place and a first indication of missing "culture fit".

For the love of everything that is holy, do not wear a tie for an IT interview in 2023...

I would even tend to call him "overdressed".

Whenever I had in-person interviews my go to was jeans, sneakers and a presentable t-shirt (plain color, or a small logo, no metal bands or similar). Everything in good condition and clean. An unbottoned casual shirt on top, if winter.

Usually "know your shit and don't be an embarrassment" is the bar to clear in IT.

If you want to think that, you can.

People (including myself) are criticizing Israel EVERYWHERE ad nauseam. Bringing UN resolutions (vetoed by the US), protesting on the streets, ranting on the internet, wearing t-shirts, donating to NGOs...

Everybody knew Russia would wage war on them, there were satellite images published for weeks before Feb 24th, which of course Russia denied. Is /r/RussiaDenies a thing on lemmy yet?

Additionally, existing users are mostly in urban centers with very efficient infrastructure, starlink gives high bandwidth internet everywhere.

I'd like to see the CO2e cost of giving a user in the middle of Idaho or Montana a 100Mbps connection.

I'm sure you'll change their views. Godspeed!
