  • I've used limesurvey a few times before and I think it's definitely a viable option as it has an option to disable ip tracking along with an anonymous mode.

  • Tbh we have some concerns about the privacy implications of using Google forms for data collection. Does it log IP addresses of respondents?

  • You aren't expected to like AI to be a user here, matey. It's just something db0 is really into and has done some cool projects with, e.g. the AI Horde which is a community-powered AI image generator. But if you really hated piracy, this might not be the instance for you, lol.

  • It's because...

    Police kill Black people at disproportionate rates

    Though nationwide statistics are less readily available, multiple studies have found that police kill Black people at disproportionate rates.

    A study in the American Journal of Preventative Medicine in 2016 examined all 812 fatalities that resulted from use of lethal force by on-duty law enforcement from 2009-2012 in 17 states. The study used National Violent Death Reporting System data.

    The majority of victims were white people, at 52%, but "black victims were over-represented (32.4%) relative to the U.S. population." The fatality rate was 2.8 times higher among Black victims than white victims.

    So yes, police violence against PoC in the US is overrepresented by almost 3x the rate of white victims. It's a major issue. Black on black crime is also a major issue but that is also correlated with poverty in general. So they aren't the same issue at all, and BLM are free to advocate for whatever specific issues they want to focus on, because they can't possibly have the resources to take action on every form of hateful discrimination that PoC face on a daily basis (like poor access to healthcare and worse treatment than white patients when they do get medical care, to name another couple of examples).

  • It's important news for pirates, because if you've set cloudflare dns resolvers in your *arr stack then certain things might stop working (e.g. blocked indexers). I just switched my system to another DNS service because of this.

  • It's fairly trivial to bypass Microsoft's hardware requirements for windows 11 afaik. Just install via Rufus and click the relevant options. I agree with you that MS should have made these optional recommendations though, we shouldn't have to use third party tools.

  • The breakdown of application answers was totally worth doing, db0! I found it interesting, at least :)

  • Why would you expect the police to come down on Rose's side of things? They are much more likely to side with the Neo-Nazis, based on history.

  • As a rule of thumb I think CWs are a good idea if there is any content that is likely to upset someone and be reported. Exactly where the line should be is up for debate, but it seemed likely to me in this case.

  • Are you really arguing we should all be nicer to literal Nazis? That's the group we are talking about.

  • It's Sonarr - just saw that the first couple of episodes of this series are on usenet already, so I guess it's not so ironically difficult lol

    Fittingly enough they are also now available on The Pirate Bay as torrents.
