  • These articles always get me thinking about filesharing doomsday. That theoretical point in time when our governments go full China and enact their own national firewalls/other scheme of effective P2P connection surveillance; when you need to know for certain that you've downloaded enough (and that your storage game is good enough) to last decades of leisure time, perhaps even a lifetime's worth.

  • Make it easy to buy stuff and people will.

    In case you haven't worked it out by now, the following advice may be of help:

    They're not gonna do that

  • Capitalizing black mid-setence. It's an absolutely ridiculous convention, and something only the American Left could take seriously.

    Sincerely, Everyone else

  • Permanently Deleted

    Jump
  • Note the complete 180 in priorities since the Russian's arrest. It may as well be a FAGMAN product soon.

  • Seconding this. The figures are too rubbery for headlines like this to have any meaning.

  • 'Thank you, thank you. As you know I've suffered for my art'

  • The corporate media are very clear on this. Citizens won't be doing any primary reporting, nor will they be doing curation of reportage. Weird, huh?

    See the example of Level1News becoming Level1Show, etc.

  • but if you have a problem with the wages, just tip more.

    enabler | noun

    en·​abler i-ˈnā-b(ə-)lər

    : one that enables another to achieve an end especially : one who enables another to persist in self-destructive behavior (such as substance abuse) by providing excuses or by making it possible to avoid the consequences of such behavior

  • The public internet is for P2P exchange as well, no matter how much gov/corp tries to stymie it. I2P has its merits, but it would be sad to see it take off purely because people ceded the former territory for an obscure network layer.

  • The safest way to log into an account in a non-trusted device

    Wouldn't the better policy be to practice device compartmentalization? I have the 'pleasure' of interacting with a non-trusted device about 40 hours a week, and I can tell you the number of personal logins I access from that compartment is none

    People (even the technically incllined) place way too much value on cross-platform sync.

  • I agrree they would. Don't read it literally

  • A Boeing suicide...

    A crass nickname for the CIA Prize for Journalism if I ever saw one.

  • The easiest tool is MakeMKV. But you'll often encounter opportunities for efficiency (eg stereo DTSHD to FLAC) as well as requirements to convert* for hardware compatibility. That's where ffmpeg and MKVToolNix are good secondary tools for customizing the remux contents.

    *Not transcoding. Rather, lossless formet 1 -> lossless format 2.

  • It's an imageboard meme. Slang for over-the-top complaining.

  • Or put another way, it's enabling advertisers to better camouflage themselves as humans. (Because we just cannot have people communicating directly to each other on the web...)

  • Suppression of the suspect's voice really is misinformation on the part of states and corporations, albeit for different reasons.

    Relevant laws and policies are employed in order to deliberately withhold public information about motive. They don't want people placing these incidents this within a broader context. There couldn't possibly be a belief set behind the behaviour; the perp didn't have any ideas about how the world works, or who and what caused their circumstances. Oh no.

    Why did the shooter go out and shoot people is a completely legitimate question. More than that, it will never be an illegitimate question, no matter how much autistic screeching authorities do. Learning is never wrong, and that includes the publishing and reading of a criminal suspect's thoughts.

  • No, Mr Mangione! A Fortune 500 executive is a living, enterprising creature!

    I don't care....heheheh
