I’ve seen Fedora lauded for being so responsive, and I’d probably go for that over the super bloated Ubuntu. I know it’s not debloated either but that is preferable over dealing with Arch which needs a lot of tinkering time which eats into my work time.
YouTube already did the math, as did almost every single company and corporation on the planet.
There’s a lot more revenue in advertising than subscriptions, especially on a website that started off entirely free (so Netflix for example goes in the subscription model rather than the advertising model but that seems to have changed!)
There’s a mass of people who follow up on these advertisements. The latest advertisements I’ve encountered on YouTube are really really calculated and well scripted. For example the digital dollar advertisements sound like they’re going to save you from financial ruin. It’s clever and it’s working. Money is pouring in.
The Chinese consumers have been eating up ads like that for their TVs to power on for roughly half a decade at least. I’m talking Xiaomi. Chinese consumers are the perfect ad(shit)-eating consumer; so docile and they like to burn money (I mean, they do…literally).
I’ve got two F710s and they’re reliable enough. I wouldn’t trust them in pro gaming though.
If I got in the sub and saw one of these used to steer it, I’d be very concerned. I know they’re not really blaming Logitech; just taking one of these out of the plastic packaging and saying ‘OK, now we’ve got steering and propulsion!’ is not really a safety culture to get behind.
