Ah, just had it backwards then, thanks

They said gamers had “hard skills” they’re looking for, but surely they mean “soft skills,” right?

It’s a response to the tired refrain that the latest generation are stupid and lazy

Very good point. I definitely moved over in protest of Plex’s rug pull, so fuck them.

I moved to Jellyfin a while back and I’ve really enjoyed it. Maybe not better, but on par with Plex in most respects.

I started by picking a lot of indexers, trying to cover my bases, but every search would take forever because it sifts through every match to find the best one for your criteria. In the end I pared it down to just to just a couple big ones that even I’ve heard of and it’s been fine 98% of the time.

I’ve always heard the private indexers are best, but I don’t have experience with them.

I assume it’s UK/EU’s expanding social media laws that are driving this, in addition to Discord’s imminent Initial Public Offering coming in March. They’re trying to clean house to show how profitable they can be, the same way Reddit created their walled garden by restricting third-party connections prior to their IPO.

It’s bog-standard enshittification to please the shareholders.

It was very in the open, but Trump said he didn’t know anything about it, so the sycophants believed him.

Are you kidding? Always dodge twice!

Yeah, man, I get it. Language is complex. I’m not advocating for the reinvention of English, it was just a conversational observation about a silly quirk.

Do you think it’s a matter of choosing a complexity to care about?

I think in most cases where this administration seems to have a good idea it’s important to remember that it’s likely designed to keep them in power.

A national database that the trump admin controls will 100% be exploited for their own gain, just like every other aspect of government is being exploited for their gain now.

Kinda dumb that apostrophe s means possessive in some circumstances and then a contraction in others.

I wonder how different it’ll be in 500 years.

It’s not just the information for me, he’s also passionate about the stuff that he explores and that comes across in his videos.

People don’t like when you don’t answer their question because it doesn’t give them an answer to their question. Just answer the question first and then hop on your high horse to tell them why it’s not going to work.

Oof, yeah, forgot about that. Yeah, people are people everywhere… I just liked having a more idyllic version of things in my head

When I lived in Germany I found that the people were far more self-policing than Americans. There just seemed to be a general attitude of, “we know we’re not supposed to do that, so we don’t.”

Fully anecdotal, sure, and that was 15 years ago, but nonetheless it’s hard for me to imagine “ze Germans” tampering with odometers to sell cars.

I promise I’m not completely stupid, but the first time I saw an ad I went looking for ways to never see them again and came up with nothing. I’ll look again, though!

I pay for Nitro yearly to the tune of $15 a month and the ads cannot be disabled, only hidden after they come up.

So yeah, I’ve cancelled my subscription, this is only going to get worse, especially once they’re completely beholden to shareholders.

Lol, What to hate worse, the people or the shit they make us all go through? 🤔

I’m trying to be a more understanding person, but goddamn
