The only Christmas-related media I like in any capacity, is the OG Grinch cartoon. So Thurl Ravenscroft is the only person I wanna hear singing on Christmas.

Well, at least only one of my top 5 most-played games was a hentai game, this year.

Their goal is pretty standard affair.

1. Claim to be simply making yourself part of the group for the benefit of everyone. We're all gonna be friends, this is good for you, you'll see.
2. Use your position and resources to make yourself the defacto way to use the tech. Bonus points of you can make the average person see you and said tech as being one in the same.
3. Once you have gathered a high enough percentage of the users, simply make changes or take other actions that will cut yourself off from everywhere else, effectively cutting off those users from anywhere that is not you. Since most of them are already "your" users, barely any of them will even notice anything change, let alone care.
4. Repeat previous steps for any new competing service that covers along to threaten you.

The original Star wars trilogy was overrated, the sequels were underrated, and I'd rate them all to be equally mediocre.

Meanwhile, Puerto Rico looking pretty sane. What's the catch? There's always a catch.

Pretty sure length is important for penetration. Wait... what were we talking about?

I think you've missed the entire point. Like, completely missed it.

I switched from Google photos to immich just recently. I'm still looking for a good solution to replace Google's editing features. I used, and miss, those features a LOT.

I am using immich as a replacement for Google photos, which syncs my phones and tablets. I just wish it had any kind of photo editing.

I then also have Photoprism, which I use for my actual photography stuff. When I pull raws and videos from my DSLR, I dump them into a share on my NAS, mapped to a drive in Windows. They then get automatically imported into and managed by Photoprism.

Still trying to work out the best way to edit/work with the raws in Lightroom, while keeping them in Photoprism, and also up-to-date.

I also use Duplicati to do nightly encrypted backups to Google drive.

I've put about 100 into my first playthrough, even with the extreme amount of bugs that locked me out of so many areas, quests, characters, etc(which I get downvoted for every time I mention that such bugs exist). But then work got in the way and I haven't played in probably a month. I would guess I'm half way through act 3, or more. I really need to finish the game. Now that there has been a major update or two since I last played, I'm hoping the bugs I experienced are finally fixed, so I can start a new playthrough and get to do all of the stuff that bugged out. Kinda want to start again with the same character I have now, since I feel like she kinda got cheated, with all of the bugs. Also really want to play the new Cyberpunk and Tales of Arise expansions before that, too. And those are also a question of whether I load up my existing characters, or start an entirely new playthrough for each.

No, that was step one. Operate at a loss until you suck up all of the users and kill off as much of the competition as you can. Now we're at step two, where the time has come where they desperately need to actually make money, e.g. YouTube. You're going to see more and more "free" sites/apps/services entering step two, if they haven't already.

My Galaxy Tab S8+ is definitely the best tablet I've ever owned. I just wish there were custom roms for it.

Yep, mail to the spam folder is what I mean.

Funny, considering I've moved over to a paid proton account as my primary email, and my former primary email/Gmail account, with its ability to instantly become infinitely many disposable email addresses, is now used as exactly that. This same procedure occured many years ago, when I made my yahoo email into the disposable junk mail home, and my shiny new Gmail became my primary. I wonder how many years it be until proton becomes my disposable, and some as-of-yet to be created service becomes my new primary email. Or maybe email will finally be dead by then, and we'll use something else entirely.

I will say, even after all of these years, and using the living shit out of my Gmail account in many, many places, I still only get two or three spam emails at most during the entire year.

Sure, if you have family photos. Or a family that you want to have access to anything of yours. I do not. And I very specifically want to do everything in my power to prevent my so-called family from gaining access to anything of mine, digital or physical.

None. I'm not rich, I don't have the luxury of straight-out boycotting any particular company. If I could, both Amazon and Walmart would be top of the list. And I'm sure many others.

Hell, I've been wanting to finally delete my Facebook account for years now, but Facebook marketplace is apparently the ONLY place I'm ever going to be able to sell anything. It's the only reason I still have the account. I have long since delete all posts, photos, and literally any other data that they would let me delete, aside from marketplace posts and associated messenger conversations. Used to buy and sell constantly on Craigslist for many years, now I haven't been able to successfully sell a single item in at least the last 2-3 years. Letgo was a decent one for a while, until the app got bought by, and then shut down by, OfferUp. And the OfferUp people are basically con artists (use shady methods of boosting the number of "active" listings, in order to artificially inflate the value of their company). It has been nearly impossible to sell, or even BUY anything on OfferUp, after several years of trying to make user of the app.

I want the opposite. I want all of my data to be completely inaccessible to anyone, and potentially even self-destruct somehow.

Squaresoft, tri-Ace, Natsume

Garuda or Chimera, depending on what you want, exactly.
