Cars are investments for banks too, but I'm specifically talking about buyers. Selling a house for more than you bought it is the most absurd thing I've ever seen, and that's coming from someone buying a house as we speak. I should not be able to sell this thing for 2x its value in ten years.

Houses should not be investments. They break down and should depreciate like any other physical asset. If you built your retirement solely on your house then that's nobody's fault but your own.

Not exactly doable since living spaces legally must have egress windows, and shopping malls... Don't really have many outer walls for that compared to the amount of space internally they have

That's really just not the case at all. It's perfectly doable to get $5 a month per ad free user, so depending on how many creators and videos you watch they'd get that amount out of you every couple of weeks

You'd be surprised. Half the cost of premium goes to creators, and making $5-7 per user per month through ads is definitely doable. That equals pretty much exactly the cost of premium

I personally don't value YouTube Premium because I know nothing goes to content creators except for the fact that it covers ad revenue income without showing ads.

Uh. Half of the cost of premium gets distributed to the creators you watch, and it's a non-insignificant amount of money.

Hard to say they're stealing when you give consent by agreeing to their ToS

Google isn't entitled to make money by simply hosting reaction videos and hyperbolic political commentary.

This just in: man thinks storage, computing power, and bandwidth is free!

I have premium and have never seen this before

I'm not really certain what value nebula provides other than some creators uploading occasional content exclusively on nebula. Without nebula they'd just... Upload it to YouTube, which is free, so I'm not sure what the difference is

So it's not Firefox

Anything is better than nothing. Besides, it's still useful because you can see where the original link was copied from, and you still have the referrer header
