It’s good in the sense that it’s the last version before it got enshittified by ads, but the now nearly-legendary v2.2.1 is also 5 years behind in security patches. It was an awesome, fast, stable client and I miss it, but I don’t think it’s worth the risk. Like you and everyone else has been saying, OP should be using Qbittorent.

I just read that README, quite sobering. Now I’m thinking of bus scenario backup plans. Like, there’s stuff that is eventually gonna stop working if left unattended too long, and you just assume you’re gonna be around to maintain it, you know?

Lol this really sucks for Plex users, but I’m glad I left that steaming pile of shit software. I’ve been using Jellyfin for two years now and have never had to deal with sudden new shitty default-on features that appear from out of nowhere. Not once. With Plex, that happened like every other release. I don’t miss it.

I know, right? That is some frickin Lord Farquaad shit. What a dickhead!

Jesus Christ, you weren’t kidding. One of the recommended videos for me was “Why the crusades were completely justified!” Yeah, fuck that crazy shit.

You might have figured it out by now, but “megabits per second” is abbreviated as “Mbps” with an uppercase m; yeah, it’s kinda pedantic, but using lowercase means it’s a millibit, which is much, much smaller. The same applies to “gigabits per second,” which should be expressed as “Gbps.”

At any rate, thank you for posting this, it really is good news. And about time they did this, too.

And that too.

Bandcamp’s U.S. employees, who launched a union that went public earlier this year, announced early in October that they had sent a letter to Songtradr outlining a list of demands around the sale of the company

JFC, brutal response.

They just laid off half their staff

FFS lol, why don’t we skip the pedantry and just call it Gary already

They’re joking. It’s the “I use Arch btw” meme

both sides

Only one side is banning books, man.

I can’t imagine how it would feel knowing that your embarrassing moments and otherwise private matters were shared with millions of people online. Mortifying wouldn’t even begin to begin to cover it.

I would feel violated, that’s for sure. Exploiting your kids like that is gross and fucked up. Just because children lack agency doesn’t mean they don’t or shouldn’t have rights. Society needs to rid itself of the idea that authority figures “own” those who are subordinate or under their care or guardianship. It’s a disgusting, antiquated mentality that has no place in modern society. Humanity needs to grow the fuck up.
