IPTV is the name of the pirated cable TV streams. Personally, I consider commercialized piracy to be a bit distasteful compared to the free and open source route, and I have the know how to self host my own streaming service.

Although it’s not piracy, another free option to consider for live TV, if you’re within range of TV broadcasters, is a digital TV antenna. I’m looking into that since not only is it free and legal, it’s also the best picture quality, not compressed like IPTV (legit or pirated) or even cable.

There has certainly been a correlation for being black and being charged with possession of weed if that’s what you mean.

I never understood the logic behind that. What’s the reason for it?

Are we afraid that all of the criminals will form a Crime Party and campaign to legalize burglary and murder? 😈

Or do we think the type of person who would commit a violent crime is going to be incentivized to not commit a crime because of losing their right to vote, in a country where half the people don’t vote anyway?

Before I mug this old lady, I really should consider that this upcoming election has huge ramifications and I really don’t want to risk losing my right to vote. I don’t mind jail, community service, or monetary fines; it’s voting that might prevent me from commiting this offense. 🤓

No, I think it’s more likely that some people don’t want other people who are disproportionately convicted of crimes (you know, those people) to have a voice.

Is your name a dig at Lemony Snickett?

I can already imagine the Tom Clancy thriller where some Joe Nobody gets roped into helping crack a terrorist’s locked phone because his face looks just like the terrorist’s.

Which part of diversity, equity and inclusion are you opposed to? Or do the quotes mean that Ubisoft is doing something nefarious in the name of DEI and I’m out of the loop?

So the American flag signals the virtue of capitalism, or at least anti-communism?

What virtues does the American flag represent to you?

Whistle goes, “Woo, woo,” but that’s only in the mo’ning.

I thought the Boring Company was more about pretending to want to dig holes to stifle public transit in order to bolster EV sales… Am I mistaken?

$100/pop on eBay. At the time, Hotmail inboxes had a storage limit of 2 MB.

The imaged is cropped, but cropping doesn’t remove the context of the image, and it isn’t worth the risk of making women feel less welcome in tech, which is a big problem already.

If I may, why is it so important to you that the image continues to be used over other images, against the wishes of Lena and IEEE?

If you think this is about an exposed shoulder, you missed the point.

I refuse to pay for pirated content out of principal. It’s bad enough that I’m infringing copyright (and boy do I!) but commercialized piracy rubs me the wrong way. I even prefer Bittorrent over Usenet and FOSS media software over commercial software. Yarr!

Some artists in the punk scene are putting out cassettes.

I remember when reddit ads were off to the side and unobtrusive, and often had games or jokes in that space to encourage you to allow reddit past your ad blocker.

Times have changed…

My 3080 Ti could definitely burninate some villagers if harnessed correctly.

Runs a bit hot though.

Good call naming that disasterous blimp after him, eh?

Login to view started before Musk took over, FYI. I distinctly remember avoiding Twitter to spite them in those days.
