Plex+Sonarr+Radarr. Netflix raising subscription rates again? Yarrr, not my concern. Studios locking away their content behind exclusivity agreements? Yarrr. “This program is not available in your country”? YARRR!

Decent chance that post was written by AI as well. Or it was a marketing copywriter. Either way it wasn’t written by a normal human.

Usenet as daily driver works 99% of the time. Only use VPN/torrents for extremely new or very obscure shows. $5/month pays for unlimited Usenet and VPN.

When Hamachi became unusable I switched to Tailscale to connect my phone, my laptop, and all my local PCs together. It just works, flawlessly. There are more features they offer like Exit Nodes (proxy servers to force Internet traffic through another PC on your Tailscale Network) and sharing your tailnet nodes with another Tailscale user on a separate tailnet, but realistically I just use it like I used Hamachi - as a dead-easy VPN between all my personal devices.

I’m assuming 1172 is a count of donations to official mainstream servers. I have definitely contributed to my local server.

I use FireFox + uBlock Origin, and never see ads. I did have to disable my other adblock/privacy extensions (DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials, PrivacyBadger, and Ghostery) for YouTube before its anti-adblock stopped complaining, but FF+uBO seems to work just fine with default filters enabled.

I’m in favor of this, but how did it pass when “two out of four commissioners voted against the measure”?

uBlock Origin has kept their filters up-to-date for me. Still no ads, and no blocks from YouTube, since day 1. I did disable my other privacy extensions like Privacy Badger and Ghostery on YouTube to stay on their “good” side however.

This is my shocked face when nothing comes of this… :-/

Or by convincing the other side not to bother voting…

Staying home might be enough though, no?

Who views ads in Reddit? Except for all the shill posts, that is.

I’m guessing that they’ll sell Reddit Gold for money (or give subscribers a monthly stipend), then share a (small) portion of the money they made to contributors when they receive and then sell back said gold.

When you work with snakes you should not be surprised if you get bit.

I can’t even begin to imagine 20,000 people dying so quickly like that. Absolutely horrible…

She’s a brave woman, talking to the reporter for that story. In that state, she’ll likely be harassed and threatened as a “baby murderer” even though this obviously was not her first choice.

DuckDuckGo uses Bing as well, so I’m not sure why it’s better for you than Yahoo or bing.com. I personally am fine using DDG, as it provides the results I’m looking for and doesn’t track me for asking.
