First boss of mine that is forcing me to do that kind of shit is probably suing me for assault. On him.

It is not the image that it was, therefore you have to conclude it is not a good enhancement. And maybe the masses are indiscriminate, but to give everyone Soylent Green because most people wouldn't object is not the way forward.

I fear Linux is getting a little soft in the head. Maybe he needs to revisit his discussion with Andy.

The problem is there are too many obnoxious people doing this for their own stupid little channel. And nobody wants to be acting in it. Stop it or face the consequences.

The pie used to cost $ 10. Then the pie cost $ 15. Soon after you neede to pay $15 dollar to get half a pie and spend another $15 to get the other half. Now you get only a small piece of the pie for $ 20 and you need to buy the other 10 pieces for another $ 5-$ 25 each.
And the wonder why it doesn't work.

"Recent heb ik ernstige en acute signalen gekregen dat er bij het bedrijf ernstige tekortkomingen zijn die de leveringszekerheid in gevaar kunnen brengen. Dat zou grote gevolgen hebben voor de Europese en Nederlandse economie. Op basis van de signalen die ik heb gekregen had ik in mijn ogen geen andere keuze dan in te grijpen via deze wet."

You are also misrepresenting the article. It says "costing 30.000 vehicles". That is a normal phrase for something you can't make even when it does not directly mean monetary value.
You are nitpicking something that needs not be nitpicked.

I don't mind paying for content.
I also don't mind paying for content. I do mind having to pay 10 streaming services full price to be able to see what I want. I do mind paying 25 euro per month for my usual subscription and then having to pay 15 euro EXTRA because the broadcast rights #something I watch has been bought by some other higher bidder.
In that sense, all measure of reasonability has gone. It is greed, greed, greed and how can we extract the last cent from our viewers.
And I don't go along with that game. I don't NEED to watch TV. If you don't offer something reasonable, more and more viewers will switch off.

YouTube (and its parent Google) long ago lost any interest in not being evil and now *everything* they do is all about hiking revenues and boosting that bottom line. If you think otherwise then you're sadly deluded.
So true.
