Unpopular opinion: sub to a plex/emby server. All your favorite shows on one platform, probably in 4k too, works on all devices, you never need to think ahead about torrenting something. Mine is 10$/month.

for now

The holy spirit help you with your servers that run on windows.

I’d also suppose this update won’t affect you, cuz you’re hopefully not running latest win11 on a server.

That’s disgusting! Where do those criminals gather, so I could go an express my utter disappointment to them directly?

You can theoretically learn it is not the point. Your point was “I can learn how to code up a website in a week, and my degree wastes 4 years”. No, it doesn’t.

Trust me, if you wanna learn German by being airdropped into the country with a dictionary, you’ll have a very very bad time compared to what Goethe Institute teaches.

Because in order to properly speak the language you need to know the grammar. And you will almost certainly not ever grasp it properly on your own without guidance by an experienced educator. Germany is full of those people who after decades of living there keep making awful grammatical mistakes. While people who went to Goethe Institute usually don’t.

Same for people who learn JavaScript from a tutorial and suddenly they’re a web dev, but understand nothing about algorithms complexity and so the whole fuckin internet is so slow it hurts.

Precisely because of that attitude of yours.

It takes a day to learn how to train an AI model in python. It takes a PhD to understand what you’re doing.

Please, teach me in a week how to write my own compiler and under what conditions re-compilation converges.

Sorry, I don’t know what’s a for loop or what’s a set, I only know how to do 2+2 in excel.

Go.

Your immutable distro will not be tailored to your hardware by a team of qualified and paid engineers. I’m not entirely sure why the heck do you think immutability is the differentiating factor here.

yep, a tiny boot error and suddenly you need to punch commands into initramfs. good luck with that headlessly.

how fkd up is the sh1t really out there? This is unheard of.

Some, maybe 1-2% of Windows users keep yelling “I’ma switch to Linux”. They then try it for a few days and give up.

You didn’t matter in the first place, but also you will most likely not make a successful transition anyways.

I just hope that one day Spotify goes premium-only and all of you can go cry somewhere else.

Literally the hero of the music industry, but the whole lemmy takes a dump on them. Man, people on this platform are just all poor and uneducated. So, everything paid is bad, and no idea of what’s actually behind the costs.

Go pirate some mp3s and remember, that despite how disgusting music labels are, if everyone did what you do, your favorite artist would’ve stopped producing their music long-long time ago. So, this simply puts you into the same leeching category with the corpos that you so despise.

wow,lemmy hates corpos but upvotes this guy, jeez

BS. One new CD is at least 10$. A good band collection is then a year worth of subscription fees. So, do you only listen to a few bands?

Before Spotify I pirated everything. In lossless, ofc. I had 200GB of music, it wouldn’t fit on my ipod classic, and I still was limited.

I pirated at least a lifetime worth of Spotify premium and yet when I switched to Spotify I discovered so many more artists like the ones I already liked. If I now tried to buy all the songs I’ve listened to more than once in the last 5 years, I’d go bankrupt.

Spotify is way cheaper.

(now add ease of discovering new music, listening to whatever your friends want to listen to in a car, collaborative playlists, etc etc)

we absolutely couldn’t now run a few experiments and estimate the weights from them. No that’s some sorcery.

wth, no docker?..

Also: “they actually track that I was searching for something illegal, let me rather not do it again”.

GitHub releases?

Hi, I just bought a Roku streaming box. What should I do next?
