  • What I find annoying is for what you occasionally use.

    For instance I started to listen more frequently to a songs service (which I was bypassing ads) and so I thought to officially subscribe. When I looked at prices I didn’t because it was too costly and knowing me I could stop anyday to use it. Price for one was above 10 when for two it was something like 14 so 7 per person and which I would have been ok to pay. Good for me because I stopped to listen some weeks after and it has beek years I didn’t really use it.

    I think, especially for video and audio media consumption, you should pay a global amount and it should be split between services you used. Split should be based on usage.

    Hate those posts only containing link… Feeling like I am looking at a news aggregator with click bait…

    For those feeling like me here a simple cut and paste :

    Sam is a very small Text-To-Speech (TTS) program written in Javascript, that runs on most popular platforms. It is an adaption to Javascript of the speech software SAM (Software Automatic Mouth) for the Commodore C64 published in the year 1982 by Don’t Ask Software (now SoftVoice, Inc.). It includes a Text-To-Phoneme converter called reciter and a Phoneme-To-Speech routine for the final output.








  • Compared to clicking a button I would say a lot faster as you don’t have to move your mouse to start initiating your gestures. It’s maybe more marginal compared to a short key. Still your hand is already on the mouse ready to execute a gesture. Personally I find it really convenient and for me it’s the second most useful add-on after ublock. When using a browser on other computers that don’t have these I find it really tedious and I am shocked at how much ad there is.
