  • You say this as if Granny doesn't have tea and crumpets with the person who can sell her that tiny house every saturday. If she wants to downsize affordably, she should take it up with her 'Golden Age Bookclub' buddies who own all the other houses in town...

  • It's fine, the repacks generally tick up the CPU and RAM a lot. It's just extracting things faster than if it didn't use that many resources. You only really have to worry if the extraction process halts for unreasonably long (over an hour or smth), then you may have a system issue (not the repack's fault).

  • If you can afford a second home, you can afford to pay a bit more tax on it to benefit the public good.

    This part applies. It's not about directly getting a house for the homeless in this case, it's the fact that they can CLEARLY afford to pay more tax.

  • Oh ok, if that's what it was actually about, I get disliking the format/channel. But I completely agree with you about not downvoting a relevant post.

  • It would appear that people hate criticism of Apple on this platform, based off of the downvotes. I am slightly surprised at that tbh. And I additionally beleive that just makes the point in the video about Apples "holier than thou" mentality more evidently true.

    Folks, they are just another Corpo, please stop simping for them because they promised you the world. It's all just sweet nothings and the evidence consistantly shows that.

  • Canada @lemmy.ca

    Is Canada Accepting LGBTQ+ Indevidules as Refugees?

  • That's why I suggested trusted vpn companies. Proton keeps no logs, so they couldn't hand it over if even they wanted to. I also suggested VPN as opposed to TOR because TOR can be fiddly*, and complicated because of that to a non-techy person (which is what this person had said they were). The speeds of TOR are also not good for streaming.

  • I beleive this is where dbzer0 would come in... So basically, you are going to want a VPN first, which they are pretty easy to get and use and there are plenty of resources online, I would suggest going for a trusted one such as Proton VPN or Nord VPN. Then as for how to actually get movies/shows, you are going to want to install firefox (if you don't have it) and then add the 'ublock' extention to block popups and other nasty things. Then once you have that, you can check out the sites in our megathread, they are safe and trusted: https://rentry.co/megathread-movies-and-tv . Let me know if you need more help. :)

    Edit:

  • 3, 4, 2, 8, 6, 1, 7, 5. Because tots are absolutely immaculate, and sweet potatos (tho good when roasted) are simply not the same kind of satisfying guilty pleasure as the rest.

  • could have turned my downvote into an upvote if you didn't use that slur :/

  • linuxmemes @lemmy.world

    Arch Linux: For those who have the "I can fix him!" mentality.

  • If this was accurate, the ropes would have snapped and Homer would go hurddling to the base of the mountain.

  • Linux Mint DE and Arch, the ultimate duo of Stability/Freindlyness & Power/Control

  • Am I the only one who beleives that it would have been a more effective arguement to try and use the 4th amendment instead of the 1st? Violating free speech is just a weak claim, but "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches..." seems quite relevent here. But I am also not a lawyer.

  • Thanks for the extensive response! You make some really good points and I was unaware of the political ick. Not sure if it's enough to make me leave them because they do seem to at least handle the privacy aspect of their services correctly (for now at least), but those do seem like good areas that I'm going to watch more closely about them from now on.

  • Can I ask what those other reasons are? (genuinely curious if I should switch away from them)
