Looks like road rage & attempted assault, license suspension at a minimum. Should be license revocation, considering he’s an in uniformed federal officer.

Just give them sensibly labels and tags when making them so they are findable and usable. Don’t frer over organization beyond that, it won’t improve your quality of life, go for a walk or something instead.

Well, I grew up with knowledge of cable pirating in apartment complexes, VHS recording of retals to share or rewatch or watch later, and tape and CD sharing and mixing…

So as far as Im aware pirating was always a easy, viable, and economically savvy choice.

I did explore Netflix for a brief time 15 years ago, but the quality of their service degraded heavily, and I still pirated alongside my Netflix membership, as their content was always limited. And I shared my member ship with others, then later occasionally used a membership that was shared with me, until Netflix broke that system.

Gonna go seed some roms.

Private DNS service.

Jerry rig door sensor.

Probably against the rules, but I’d do it anyway.

Everything everyone today says or thinks is plagiarized… Move along already, it don’t matter none. What does matter is how it, whatever it is, either benefits society or hurts it.

Fun read. Suprised how much of the codespeak I understood. I’ve run linux here or there, and I used to do some hackery decades ago. I’m no modern botnet runner, but it seems things haven’t changed all too much.

They are not ripe unless spotted.

They are over ripe if brown.

Funny, the statute $2500 should be for the circumvention act, which was likely singular, not per file obtained during or as a result of the act. And the $150k is ridiculous in and of itself, even if for all files obtained. What a strange world we live in.

Spotify built a system of control in order to profit a few at a cost to many, perhaps everyone else.

Someone broke that system in order to benefit many, possibly at the cost of some of their ability to profit from their system of control–if they didn’t lose customers, or prospective customers, they didn’t experience any financial loss, or a loss in their ability to maintain their system of control (which is still very much in place and working).

Either way, nobody was hurt.

But the person who acted selflessly to benefit of society in general is punished.

Because… We, as a society, celebrate and work effortlessly to maintain complex systems of abuse in order to satisfy our greed or the greed of others. All despite being taught in school not to lie to and bully each other, and to share with and care for each other.

As a species: We are bat shit fucking crazy!

Yeah, it’s defined as one by the authorities on the subject regardless of the biological characteristics, as it’s defined according to the needs of psychologists to identify and treat dysfunction. Psychologists, especially those that treat patients, are generally not neurologists, or pharmacist, or… So they don’t really care about those details while defining the ‘condition’.

Thanks. Been trying to retire my age old PS6 portable app for ages, and want to move to Linux full time, but keep having to go back. GIMP has always been so frustrating to use. I install it, then run away after trying and struggling to do basic stuff.

Maybe Photogimp will get me there?

Upvote for xnview, have you tried the MP version, or whatever it is. I think I run that now, but I have both installed still.

I actually just removed an old portable version that was just living rent free in my portable apps folder for years.

I have a Andoku, a sodoku game that was open source and had the perfect setup options for selecting and placing numbers.

It got sold, and new devs immediately added ads and broke everything. I think it’s some sodoku 3 with subscription options now. Been running it since probably 2013ish.

My SO and I play as a team across dinning tables in restraunts while we wait for waiters or food or whatever.

Fund tranfering should be a gov service provided at cost and maintained as a partnership between nations to make commerce easy for their citizens.

Profit shouldn’t even be a concern.

App doesn’t appear to work at all.

Might work with the floating button, but I won’t activate it to test.

The accessibility option it needs is unclear, it just sent me to the android accessibility setting tab with no idea what needs to be done there, if anything.

It didn’t replace my default assistant when I tried to change it.

Circletosearch says to double tap the status bar? Why? That doesn’t do anything?

I didn’t see anything sketchy about the app, but it doesn’t appear to be functional, so meh. Maybe try again after they’ve worked on it some more.

Well, I originally saw both Blair Witch and H20 played from really dark and messy VHS copies of theater recordings… And man, let me tell ya, they were both way better as low quality cams that HD movies!

I intentionally watch bad Horror as cams now, when I can, even decades later… It really adds to the experience!

SOs HP laptop borked Win11pro OS, wouldn’t load or recover. Tried reinstalling clean but Win11 installer can’t see SSD. Driver loading during install results in install crashing error.

Linux, here we come.

There are a lot of cultures where seating in public is ad hoc, you just sit wherever, you generally don’t claim a table or area to yourself. In those situations greetings and socialization are pretty normal.

I remember going out to eat fast food with a girl and her kid a decade ago and some homeless guy asked if he could sit with us. I said sure, and he was a nice maybe 50 year old guy. He had clearly been around kids and enjoyed the normalcy of just hanging out with the three of us for 30min. The kid didn’t mind, but the girl I was dating thought it really weird.

• Outlander (2008)
• The 13th Warrior (1999)
• Braveheart (1995)
• Gladiator (2000)
• Waterworld (1995)
• Escape from New York (1981)

These and a few other similar ‘epic’ movies were my go to lullaby movies for decades.

I’d put them on late and fall asleep to them, but I’d also watch them through sometimes too. And I still throw them on sometimes, just for kicks.
