  • I hate video players on news websites so much.

    Seriously, why even have them when they never fucking work!? This has been a problem for over a decade and a half now!

    Edit: Thankfully I found a YouTube Mirror

  • While I'm happy that people are taking action in some parts of the county, we need to see more of this happening in red and purple states. I'm not hearing much good news from those places.

  • I'll add to #2 (IDK if it's open source, though):

    Give Stremio a try. Once you set it up (basically just add the Torrentio plug-in then whatever content catalogs you want), the workflow is much better and simpler than Plex.

    You just browse it like Netflix: see something you want to watch, select it with your remote, then stream it immediately. No server to run, you don't have to build libraries, you don't even have download the content beforehand. Just select and watch. Could not be easier.

  • The majority of these citizens support the genocide.

    Do they deserve to die? Of course not. But do I feel bad about them getting a little taste of karma? Of course not.

  • This:

    IDK why it's bad, though. My only complaint is that it can take a long time to boot depending on your system, but I don't think a SystemD issue.

  • Windows 11, but only for personal reasons. Mainly because it is the only OS that has proper HDR support. The moment Linux catches up (that includes either Nvidia or a 3rd party implementing RTX HDR support as well), I will stop dial dual-booting and go all in on Arch.

  • I've heard that Kraken is alright. I'm going to close my account too and switch.

    Coinbase sucks anyway. The app lags and times out constantly, and I can't use my Coinbase Card cause every six months some asshole in The Philippines tries to use it to make a a large purchase, so I've locked the card permanently. Customer service is too lazy to do anything about it, and I'm a Coinbase One member. Not anymore.

  • I rather have a foldable. You can find a nice Samsung that's a couple generations old for around $400. Once you get used to having a tablet in your pocket everywhere you go, there's no turning back. Having a large portable screen is especially useful for games and restaurant menus.

  • I have a policy to never sign anything that isn't contingent to me getting a job. Since I'm leaving, I ain't signing shit.

  • They do it to groups of people at a time to prevent mass anger and hysteria. Don't worry you'll eventually get throttled too.

  • Come on man, that's petty as fuck.

    And again, I'm leaving so my ex boss is not my problem anymore.

  • I don't understand how exit interviews are a thing. Why would anyone go to one? I'm leaving the company, I don't owe you shit. Hell, I stopped putting in 2 week notices 20 years ago. These corporations don't care about me so I don't care about them.

  • "Might"? They're already doing it.

    YouTube in Firefox with Ublock Origin is getting throttled down to 1500kbps. I can't watch anything above 720p on my desktop anymore (with gigabit internet).

    YouTube ReVanced on mobile and SmartTube Next on the TV still thankfully work without issues.

  • Shit like this is why I never send internet memes to my parents. Boomers don't understand them.

  • Quit ruining my narrative with your facts and logic!

  • Underweight my ass. Poor bird is so fat and out of shape that it couldn't even attempt to flee... :(

  • Dunno what to tell you, man. Update and shut down always works perfectly for me. It updates, restarts to finish the update, then shuts down. Works every time.

    The only thing I can think of is that you're being impatient and manually shutting he machine down after the restart, instead just letting the OS do its thing.

  • Thank you for speaking some sense. I never had any interest in anything HP ever since the beginning, long before JK revealed herself to be a piece of shit.

    My cousin dragged me to one of the films once (IDK which one but it was the one where the Gollum ripoff dies). It was so boring that I fell asleep in the theater. Never understood why people find this garbage entertaining.
