Is there a way to allow background services for the app that Portals pop-up said was doing something in the background? Apparently it was just running, and now it's not.

I've looked in the conf files, but it didn't amend the app there. Does anyone know where app background action is set to deny/allow?

If it's in the Fediverse, you can talk to it and it might talk back. I love that ageless feature!

The Bible as a Manga series by non-Christians or Christians with no need to soap it over. Raw and gritty in the way it was originally described. Old Testament level action stories.

So people strangely know the entire Bible without a hint of religion being demanded. Post-theology, post-religion in a way that people might understand the idea of an egalitarian world coming out of an absolute quagmire.

I paid for Lynda.com, and it could have easily taken in more business if YouTube wasn't working so hard for Google ads. There are a lot of paid (and free) services that suffer because of YouTubes ad-money business model.

Netflix could use the extra business. There are plenty of services failing to thrive while YouTube exists. Peertube would be wide open if YouTube went the way of most of Google's stable of apps. PeerTube is wide open even if YouTube doesn't go away anyway.

People genuinely hate ads. It's a high degree of enshitification. YouTube could divide into paid content and free content in a simple Freemium model.

Or, add third tier with ads, which any user can opt out of in the same way contributers can. I'd be happy to click subscribe on an ad free experience with less content available to me.

Or, add an option for a couple of free tier items per month, week, or day. Like Medium's business model.

It's not hard to stop sucking!

Start flamewars on robotic astroturf accounts about how dumb Donald Trump is until Instagram starts and people try to prove he's not an idiot, but in protesting they protest too much and nobody believes them by 2016.

So, I need a robot chatbot algorithm cookbook for the naughties and beyond.

You're expending resources for greater intelligence with diminishing returns. At some point you're killing yourself, so hopefully you'll acquire enough intelligence to end the button cycle.
