Print it on paper!

I had no idea this alternative existed.

Thank you for sharing! I've got to try this.

I'm not the same person, but it seems like you're right. Pound (lb) is a unit for measuring mass. The same is true for kilogram. This actually surprises me to some degree, since it had not been clarified like this to me earlier:

In common usage, the mass of an object is often referred to as its weight, though these are in fact different concepts and quantities. Nevertheless, one object will always weigh more than another with less mass if both are subject to the same gravity (i.e. the same gravitational field strength).

...

Because mass and weight are separate quantities, they have different units of measure. In the International System of Units (SI), the kilogram is the basic unit of mass, and the newton is the basic unit of force. The non-SI kilogram-force is also a unit of force typically used in the measure of weight. Similarly, the avoirdupois pound, used in both the Imperial system and U.S. customary units, is a unit of mass, and its related unit of force is the pound-force.

I think we're probably confused of this because in common usage, we'll ask "how much does it weigh" and expect to get an answer in the unit of mass instead of force, just because the mass of the object defines the amount of force it will have in some given gravity condition.

Anyone else around here who thinks FLauncher is the cleanest AndroidTV launcher with brilliant customisation options?!

Please understand that copying intellectual property and theft are, legally speaking, two different things. If I build a machine that just makes endless copies of your intellectual property, just because I can, it doesn't affect your income whatsoever. You don't get more poor for each copy that's made.

I agree with you about pirating media that's not legally available. However, a lot of great content will become unavailable at some point in the future. Making a copy for the archives while it's possible is a good idea for any media you care about, since there's no guarantee that anyone else cares.

3rd party launchers for Android TV changed my life for the better.

Currently running FLauncher on a Xiaomi Mi Box S 4K. Such a nice, clean experience without ads and with support for sideloaded apps, and good customisation options.

I tried Leanback On Fire first, and it was decent too, but FLauncher suited my needs better, customisation-wise.

^ Would you really consider that comment stolen, rather than digitally copied?

@dpkonofa@lemmy.world

It's not the same thing but that doesn't mean it's not theft, nonetheless.

Never heard of HDO Box. Is it good? Do I need a debrid subscription in order to use it?

On my Android box running SmartTube, I can cast to it a few seconds after it's booted up. No need to open the app first.

Sounds like the devices aren't properly connected yet. In the settings of the SmartTube app, go to Remote Control to find the numbers you need in order to connect to SmartTube. Then, in the YouTube app (unmodded or Revanced) on your phone, hit the Cast-button, then "Connect with TV-code". Enter the code, and you're ready to cast. Next time you want to cast a video, just hit the Cast-button and select the device with its name ending in "(SmartTube)".

What about Revanced?

Get an Android Box and run the apps you want to.

I had never heard of this before. Installed it in Termux on Android. Some dependencies were missing, but after installing them along the way, it worked in the end! What a cool little tool. Streaming seemed to be working well. However, when I tried using the download features, the speeds seemed to stall. It took maybe 30 min to download 8 mins of video (a few 100 MB, ~25% of the size of the files I tried). I force killed the processes, which left temp incomplete files. I found and removed them using these commands:

ls

to list the files in the termux dir,

followed by:

rm filename.mp4

to remove the file

...after which the size of my Termux app decreased, as expected.

The quality of content in /r/piracy is shit nowadays when compared to !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Now, this is interesting!

Seawater contains 230 billion tons of lithium, compared to just 21 million tons in conventional land-based reserves. Lihytech estimates that extracting just 0.1 per cent of all lithium from seawater would be enough to meet humanity's technology needs.

This is the way.

If you can point me in a direction for those 13 torrent files, I'll be very thankful!

Logic. Most people have two eyes. No people (AFAIK) have three or more. Some people have one or zero. That draws the average number down to less than two, making the normal number of eyes higher than the average number.

Do you mean you can use private trackers in prowlarr and jackett? Just to clarify, since you wrote "public".
