Cool! I’ll give it a try!

It’s heatmap-calendar right?

I recently installed the “Dataview” plug-in, and it’s amazing. You can create documents or sections by querying data from other documents, effectively using Obsidian as a database.

It is opt-in, if you don’t choose any option on the banner it’s the same as choosing reject all. So, the best option is uBlock Origin with the “Cookie notices” filters enabled.

I’ve seen them in Germany, but between relatively small cities and towns.
Not Just Bikes made a video about Trams not long ago.

Good point about the indie studios. I mostly play indie games, there’s rarely any AAA game that is worth the price.

Seems like the way to go, support services that stream independent media and stop supporting the enshittified ones.

Totally agree.
Broadcast TV shows where designed with advertising in mind because it was the only way to monetize it at the time (except for tax-funded of course).
When cable TV started, one of their selling points was that it didn’t have ads, at least on the “cable-native” channels.
But after a while, they started putting ads everywhere, and that of course lead to the shitty experience that made a lot of people “cut the wire” when streaming services started.

I’m wondering what’s the next thing that will replace streaming, and eventually repeat the cycle.

Not talking about any reviewer in particular, but in general, even if they don’t get payed, they get the game for free and usually have affiliate links to buy the game, so there’s at least a couple of incentives to do a better review.
Again, not accusing anyone, but the potential for bias/conflict of interest is something to keep in mind when watching those types of reviews.
