They are sneaking something into his big macs that is causing him to live forever. Otherwise, he would have had massive heart failure by now. Of course, he might just have no heart. That is probably more probable.

They just used a LLM to do it. Cut and copied the comment into ChatGPT and tell it to turn it into a pirate by a pirate. It probably took 2 minutes.

Foobar2k is amazing and still has a very active community making extensions and plugins.

Oatmeal please. If you want to be anonymous on the internet, use TOR not a VPN.

I think it’s the older way around. There are really only 3 or 4 countries where using a VPN to pirate is needed. I’m just willing to bet you live in one of those countries.

This meme is older than Dodi.

You would reuse the same password or use the same password with slight variations. I would also often see passwords written down on sticky notes. People sometimes has different passwords but stores them unencrypted in password.xls or something similarly named.

Thank God for password managers these days. I haven’t refused the same password for many years now. I generate three random words with a number and special character for all my passwords.

Jackett can be run on any computer. It doesn’t need a server or any serious hardware. It can probably be run on a $20 Pi. It’s just allows you to interact with trackers via API calls.

I use Prowlarr via Docker now a days. It’s provides a much better experience to interact with othe instances of ARRs.

I would just keep my PC on 24/7. Did that for a good decade before I built a server. Now the ARR stacks make torrenting on private sites effortless.

Bernie is too liberal for all those big donors who pump up the Democrats via Super PACs. He might get in the way of them profiting off the American people. Bernie would have been the best choice for this country at beating back the MAGA movement before it became what we have now.

This is one of the main reasons Republicans don’t like education. They want to dismantle it and go to a charter system. That way they can profit off education and keep people stupid.

Running qBittorrent over web UI was a game changer. I was running it off a personal PC for the longest time (usually my newest gaming machine) but finally built a dedicated server.

Whose ready for some AOL ultimate Frisbee?

To answer the question, I don’t think they should be used for anything. Keep a small stack for a rainy day and get rid of the rest. There is a reason they are all it thrift stores and being given away for free. Their are much better alternatives out their for storage. Unless you are a hoarder. Then, just add them to your pile of crap you will never use/need again.

I have burned thousands of CD/DVDs in my life but maybe only 10 in the past 15 years or so.

It would be betterest if we could organize this on a large coordinated scale. God help any AI that has been trained on any social media website. It’s just not good quality data a large percentage of the time.

It’s going to be pretty hard for people to fight for their rights when their stuck in a prison in El Salvador. With no due process, people will get shipped off before they have a chance to plead their case.

It’s state sponsored capitalism and China has pumped a ton of money into BYD to get them to where they are.

I can see them giving larger tax breaks to companies in the US, but current administration is all in on tariffs as the way to increase our domestic production. It doesn’t make ours any better or cheaper, just everything else more expensive.
