How does one use this yt-dlp I've heard about?

Because my assumption immediately was it was for YouTube, but I quickly searched it to find it can support 'thousands' of websites.

tidals starting to heavily crack down on monochrome.

And yet, people keep fucking recommending to use Tidal as a Spotify alternative. Fuck that app. 30 second songs until you pay can go to hell.

RIP Kazuhisa Hashimoto, who programmed this code and has been gone from us 5 years ago.

Only for them to lose.

I swear that they do it on purpose, but every time I leave from work in the morning, this damn song plays.

Well, Mr.White, if you'd like, you can find how awesome it'd be to be in the frontlines. Go on forth and never duck for any cover, you'll gladly take the first bullet fired at you.

Penny Arcade was popular enough that Tyco from the comic got a cameo as a character in one of the Poker Night at the Inventory games, the first one. I never really liked him and found everything he says cringe-inducing.

Yes, you'd be right and I don't like anyone who boasts, gloats and brags about their pirating activities. We're all pirating for a varied assortment of reasons, personal or spite or logical, but it comes down to the fact that we're getting stuff for free and saves us tons of money. So, we all should universally be in glee about that alone. However, being louder about it, increases risks and chances of our sources being taken from us before we know it.

A lot of great sources of pirating has been taken from us over the past 5 years, sources we'd never thought would be taken down (before anyone says The Pirate Bay, that site has long lost its purpose, its symbolism now.) Sometimes it isn't because people were loud, it is just because of the network of government bodies being in bed with entertainment industries and law enforcement that are really throwing everything at the wall to take down piracy in general.

But sometimes, they wouldn't have targeted anything if the loud-mouths would shut up.

That's largely why they go into investment. Investing and the stock market are just gambling but with stocks.

Maybe you shouldn't have welcomed Draft Kings with open arms?

Sports has suffered because of gambling droolers for too long.

“We’ve spent the past year listening closely to consumers, and they’ve told us they’re feeling the strain,” said Rachel Ferdinando, CEO of PepsiCo Foods U.S. “Lowering the suggested retail price reflects our commitment to help reduce the pressure where we can. Because people shouldn’t have to choose between great taste and staying within their budget.”

Um, you forced them to do that, you tone-deaf son of a bitch.
