I was gonna say, you guys get YouTube ads? I'm still blocking them, so I'm still a target for Rick-rolling.

Heh, nice try. Sync for Lemmy saved me with their link preview.

But yes, sometimes you need to go into Ublock Origin's settings and manually update to stay ahead of YouTube's updates to their filter blocking.

Lol, i use sync as well! I noticed the same thing when i posted it... hoped perhaps you didn't have the preview like i have... 😅 Figured it was worth taking a shot, in any case!

It's alright, I already tricked someone into looking up a weird dick thing elsewhere on this post 😁

Yay! Like 5% of the market can still enjoy the prank.

The same 5% that recognize the URL and don't fall for it

Bad news unfortunately, I’ve been too busy banging rocks together to know what docker is 🗿 :(

There are dozens of us! Dozens!

I've come to find Lemmy is the land of the trans-programmer-communist and I'm here for it lol

I'm just a cis tech savvy communist, but I like the cut of your all's jib.

Y'all might even get me off of Windows!

I once tried to install Manjaro and I have never managed to break something quite so badly as that Linux install. I have no idea what happened.

I'm more of a cis-gay-socialist, but I'm friends with a number of trans-programmer-communists!

I knew. I just said it in a silly way so poor victims like yourself would get tricked into checking 😛

Never gonna dick you up, Never gonna cock you down

Never gonna run around and insert you

I’ve just checked with my lawyer and there is no way you can get a penis to fit inside another penis, the size variance simply isn’t great enough between different penises

It's more of a sort of foreskin interlocking thing, really.

Don't ask me why you would do that, I have absolutely no idea 🤷

Btw, maybe don't go to your lawyer for medical questions? Your dermatologist totally bungled that parking ticket dismissal hearing for you, after all..

I’ll have to check a diagram but that sounds a lot more doable. Looks like the yanks will be left on the sidelines for this one tho - famously low foreskin ownership rates over there.

I recently heard of a straight docking story. Strap not trans. Yes I immediately befriended both people. So no it’s not necessarily gay, but it almost always is

I just see Rick Astley's face with a play button. The main issue is that modern browsers disallow playing sound without user interaction.

"XcQ, link stays blue" doesn't make me a nerd. :'(

I mean, I am, but I don't think I'm allowed to be on lemmy if I'm not, so I don't think it's relevant.

it's a different YouTube url so those nerds who recognize the rickroll url won't recognize my link

I love that automatic inline link previewing kills that tactic with disgusting ease lmao 🖕😘

He did an AMA on Reddit, and someone successfully rick rolled him. It was glorious, and he took it in stride.

I'd imagine monetization of the video with tens of millions of views doesn't hurt.

Skill issue, just use a different video, no one said it had to be the official, monetized one.

Don't unmonetized videos still play ads sometimes? I seem to remember that being a really questionable conflict of interest issue a while back (because it would mean it's technically more profitable for youtube to demonetize your videos than monetize them).

Funny story. I recently tried to find it. Like actively searched for it... and came up with nothing but a few screen shots of the dudes face. I also tried to find any kind of gore or death images using any of the major searcg engines. (I wanted to send something horrible to a scammer that was texting me when I posted something for sale.)

The Internet of old has been sanitized to prevent finding undesirable things. It's sad.

If popular creators start talking about PeerTube, there will eventually be an audience there, which means there will be money too.

I think most youtubers either have sponsors or Patreon. I don't think they rely on YouTube's ads anymore.
