  • For me it's having a kind of Streisand Effect.... Is there a mass torrent of just Sony songs I can grab? Cus fuck em, I want it just out of spite

  • Lol wut? You spent 3 days to think of that? Ok...

  • I'm not gonna disagree with the people saying "I've dropped my phone a million times and it's fine". I was there once too. Then, I dunno what my luck became, but suddenly dropping my phone almost always ended up cracking the screen. So I started using protectors.

    Now, on those times I drop it just right to shatter the screen, instead just the protector cracks. Peel it off, stick on a new one for cheap(or free if you buy ones with a warranty), and continue on.

    I treat them like crumple zones. The force being applied to the phone has to go somewhere. The protector, being outside, takes it first. Does it guarantee the phone will survive? Nah. But does it add something else that has to break first? Yup. And have I managed to crack a phones screen since using protectors? Nope.

    It may just be anecdotal experience, but an extra $10-$50 to protect a $800-$1000 phone seems like simple insurance imo. Same with an Otterbox case(which also have lifetime warrenties).

  • Some info about your partner? Age maybe? I have a group on discord. That's where I found mine(on a generic social server, but it worked).

  • Yeah, this was cool until all the steps show it's not "his brain". It's a genetic facsimile.

  • Exactly this. People who hate facism telling you you have no choice in your vote. Umm.. that's.... kinda fascist.....

  • Dude was quoting a Rush song buddy.... As much as I hate memes in a serious convo, that's what that was.

  • Again, how exactly did my vote in California, that in the end voted for Kamala, help trump AT ALL.

    It didn't and you're just full of shit. Literally all that would happen, if let's say I voted 10000 times illegally, is that Kamala would have still lost. I could have convinced all of California to vote blue and... checks notes Kamala still would have lost, but the popular vote would have been even more depressing.

    You just want to be mad at someone instead of any sort of self reflection. You're a leftist MAGA.

  • How. Explain how. How did my vote in California, that voted for Kamala, affect others negatively? Please, I'd love to hear your bullshit excuse. Literally all you are doing is another "us vs them" fight that divides us. So please, let's hear some logic and facts about those my vote personally lost us the election. I'll wait.

    You do realized I could've falsely voted HUNDREDS OF TIMES for Kamala and we'd still have lost, right? Like, you know how electoral votes vs popular vote works, right? Cus I really don't think you do.

  • Hey, I'd like to introduce you to shades of gray. I live in California. I in fact, can protest vote. Because guess what? We still majorily vote blue no matter fucking what. So what now? How am I complicit when my state voted for Kamala?

    This is such a tired bullshit argument. You just want someone to be angry at. You're no different than a MAGA with your lack of logic.

  • When will you people learn "fuck you, accept this candidate or else" doesn't work? You can't blackmail and extort your constituents.

  • This. If you don't have kids there are basically no support systems to start a family. Wages aren't high enough and it looks like a daunting task. But if you have kids, suddenly you can qualify for food stamps and assistance(which is good). The system is basically set up to help prevent you from failing once you've already done it, but not to set you up to do it successfully beforehand. To have kids, you basically have to say "fuck it, we'll just figure it out". A lot of people aren't willing to take that risk.

  • Yes, I would agree that the conversation were having is useless but you sure wrote a lot of words....

  • It's not equivalent though. It's a grey wolf made to look like a direwolf. If they'd crispered a grey wolf into a dire wolf, that would be one thing. This is not that. This is basically a designer breed at best.

  • You keep missing the point so hard I think it's intentional.

    First off, necessary and recommended are two very different things. 4chan running for the last decade on outdated software with no backups is proof that you absolutely can run things without a backup. It's not wise, but not REQUIRED.

    Secondly, OP was up there acting like 5Tb is prohibitively expensive and is gonna keep instances from being made. As me and other hobbyist have pointed out, 5tb is a joke. Those of us running little bullshit servers have WAY more. So asking someone trying to set up a social media server to have 5TB is nothing. If that seems like a lot to you, then you shouldn't even try because it's clearly way beyond your depth.

  • You literally just described my Jellyfin, minus the raid because I don't feel like setting it up. Think all in all I'm down about $1200 for it. Not thousands. You do realized a 12TB NAS drive is $200, right? Only reason my build cost as much is because I have a few 2TB ssds in there which were just leftovers from the PC anyways. I could've done it all for $500.

    Off-site backup isn't required. Nice, but not required at all. In the literal sense, you don't need it. It's good to have, but an extra.

    So yeah, 5TB, literally the only metric I was discussing, isn't much. Maybe in the future the person should say all the nuance and not "5TB is unreasonable for the average person". It's not. Plain and simple.

  • My Jellyfin server is 6 times that... And my gaming PC is double that.... Seriously, this person thinks 5TB is a lot? Don't we have SD Cards/Flash Drives this big now? I'd be WAY more concerned about the bandwidth requirements.

    Edit: laughing my ass off at the downvotes. Yes, my server has 30TB. Yes my PC has around 12TB. It wasn't expensive or hard. The hard drives in my Jellyfin are NAS drives.... Bunch of people acting like you need quantum computers to run a node lmfao. Storage space is easy. It's the networking and bandwidth part that's hard. So yeah, complaining that 5TB of storage puts it out of reach of the average person when one 12tb NAS drive cost $200? Just bitching. Plain and simple.

  • Did that actually get confirmed? I saw that as well but it wasn't confirmed as best as I can tell. RIP if true. Dude was a legend.

  • Ok, disagree. Show me that games aren't better. Show me that they aren't bigger with better graphics, more features, longer stories. Oh yeah, you can't. So disagree all you want lol.

    Also, I'll just point out again with wages: ok, so cars, houses, everything else has gone up. So explain in economic terms why a luxury good shouldn't too? I'll wait. You're arguing economics of society. That's a much bigger issue. But please, explain. I'll wait. I expect more than a few paragraphs, by the way.
