I don't know what a markiplier is, I am just reading the actual changes on the YouTube terms website. Terminations and Suspensions by YouTube for Cause YouTube may suspend or terminate your access, _your Google account_ , or your Google account’s access to all or part of the Service if (a) you materially or repeatedly breach this Agreement; (b) we are required to do so to comply with a legal requirement or a court or…

Just because they can terminate a Google account doesn't mean they have too... I do not understand what point you are trying to make

Your original comment asks where it says they can terminate your Gmail account. I was responding to that. There are dozens (hundreds?) of documented cases of Google banning the associated Google account when they ban the YouTube account.

Yes, just because they can, doesn’t mean they have to, but they do it anyways.

I think we agree and one of us just got confused on the way? I know they have done that for youtube accounts; developer accounts too.

They are now at least making it much more obvious

It's actually really simple! Here's an example: youtube-dl --dateafter now-7days --playlist-end 10 --download-archive '/path/to/folder/downloaded.txt' -o '/path/to/folder/%(title)s.%(ext)s' -- ' https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYO_jab_esuFRV4b17AJtAw' You can play around with the parameters to get the behavior you want (there are tons more than I don't use), I kept it pretty simple. In my case it checks the channel…

I never thought to set up something like this, but it's a fantastic idea! Now... this may seem like a silly question: What does the '--' do before the channel url? I know '--' is normally used for parameters longer than one character, but that one is kinda just floating about haha.

Looks like a mistake on my part, I was probably playing around with another parameter and forgot to remove it completely. It runs fine with it there so I never noticed it but it isn't needed.

Sure, I've been trying to make more tangible predictions about the future lately. I don't bet money, but if I'm wrong, you can come find me online and publicly tell me I'm wrong. I will make a public prediction that after one year of Manifest V3 actually shipping to users in mainline Chrome: - Assuming that Manifest V3's declarative API is not significantly changed from its current implementation. - If you visit each…

Thanks for giving so much detail about what you expect! This seems pretty hard to formalize a bet about, though, since the core disagreement is over "Firefox will block more visible ads and popups" which you'd put at 55% and I'd put at ~50%.

I want to stress that I think 50% is high here, because the default state is that most browsers do basically the same amount of stuff.

If you asked me to make a bet on whether Firefox would be meaningfully better than Chrome on, like, SSL support, I would give that a pretty low probability -- maybe 10% off the top of my head. Because I expect that a year from now nothing drastic is going to happen that would magically make either browser be different from each other on that front.

It's not 50% "one of the two things will happen, flip a coin", it's 50% "we will see a meaningful change from the status quo."

Putting "--" as an argument means that future arguments starting with "-" will not be parsed as arguments (imagine trying to rm a file called "-rf" or grep for "-"). But it just so happens that it's not necessary in this case.

I'm curious then; would Google list Firefox and other competing services before their own?

Theyd kind of have to if they were being paid to ... whether what they charge FF etc is reasonable would be the question

Would this be considered acceptable if it was a large company doing it to a much smaller company?

i.e. if Samsung was shoving itself into the searches for all non-Apple phones?

All Chromium "based" browsers are forks already -- how is this any different?

They’re less so forks than re-builds. They rely heavily on upstream and Google can certainly make it more difficult for them to maintain a “fork” that diverges too much from Chromium proper. Manifest V3 may be something they can easily keep out of their builds while maintaining the old method, but I’m no expert so I won’t comment on that. A fork implies maintaining most or all of the code base themselves, when in rea…

Not including Manifest V3 in their builds hardly seems like a change that makes maintaining a fork untenable. That's what, a one-line change?

Can you share any more information or the source of your script? Sounds like a pretty cool idea.

Your comment inspired a quick and dirty implementation of this.

It's on my github[1] if anyone wants to take a look. I don't use bash often, so if anyone sees better ways to do things I'm all ears.
