Every conservative in your office is a self-serving prick. Same as anywhere.

There are some very cheap VPNs out there. Get a year long deal on Slickdeals, or a similar site. Come renewal time , switch providers and got another discounted subscription for the following year. VPN providers fall all over themselves trying to lure you away from your current provider.

Or, even better, get a seedbox. Many of those even offer VPNs at no additional cost. So you get the insulation of never torrenting on your home connection, and a “free” VPN, that isn’t shared with a million other people, for things like watching foreign streaming services or just plain increased privacy.

it’s worth the download time to kick it up a notch to 1080

In general? Yes, 100%. For cartoons on a small screen? Debatable.

Looks to me like they were trying to get it down narrow stairs into a finished basement. I’ve been in the same situation many a time. This is solvable, though still a pain in the ass even when you get it just right.

I’d still be on the Pixel 5a 5G if it wasn’t for the screen dying (a common issue with that model). I loved that phone. In battery saver mode it would last 3-4 days with light use.

So what I’m hearing is that they should continue attaching googly eyes, but with a non-adhesive material? Maybe use twine or some sort of leather harness?

Love it when I can upvote an entire comment chain.

It was a really fun game. It took months to finish it, in small chunks, trying to fit in time here and there with my kid. I’m glad we finished though.

Yes, DDG results have seen a major drop in quality in the past 4-6 months. It’s been my primary search engine for several years now but I don’t know if my loyalty can withstand such a drastic decline. Bing results must have taken a nosedive as well, but I don’t use Bing so I can’t compare.

Good callout. We shouldn’t attribute intent, experience, or any other human characteristics, to software.

The only thing that’s pointless is doing nothing.

Now, I’m not arguing that fighting against this is worth your time. I’m making more a semantic argument that hopelessnes and apathy only allow things to get worse.

Also, fuck this game. Don’t play it.

I have an older friend that has no idea that his laptop uses Windows. He just wants to be able to browse Craigslist for cars and junk. Seems like he has to get a new laptop every two years because his “old one got too slow”. I should do something like this for him. He’d never know the difference.

I hated it at first. Then I got pretty good at it and realized that I still hated it.

I may be stupid, but I want to learn.

Wanting to learn is the least stupid thing there is.

Text please.

I just want another Tecmo Bowl.

Not anymore.

Right now, Jellyfin is still too buggy and feature-poor for my tastes. I can’t imagine trying to convince my friends and family to use it instaed of Plex. Jellyfin shows a lot of promise though. Hopefully it won’t be too long before I’m comfotable making the switch. I suppose Plex might force my hand before that.

Precisely. I don’t want or use any of those features. I’ve disabled all the streaming service and friend stuff, I don’t ever use the watchlist, and I use Tautulli for watch history. I don’t even really care about watch history either. I mostly set up Tautulli because I like self-hosting stuff.

Depending on your router you can forward all request on port 53 to your DNS server regardless of the IP they try to use.
