I disabled ipv6 long ago and never moved. Not even blinked.

Ideal is not the same, by any means, as PayPal. Read up.

With ideal you loose your money. Ideal is made from the pov of the bank and the shop selling you stuff. Its almost impossible to claim your money back without the sellers consent.

Tikkie is not the same as PayPal since tikkie only works with EU banks. (and quite possibly at this moment only NL banks) PayPal does not need a bank account. Its also not really a wrapper around ideal but thats another discussion. And mostly a semantic one so lets not go there.

Effe wat meer moeite doen en de kleine lettertjes lezen medenedelander :)

Have you seen the beginning of the movie “Fury”? How the new guy had to “clean out” his seat in the tank?

Shut up. You’re paying for a service and still get almost 50% ads?

Why? How? Which? And do we in the EU also have this awaiting in our future?

There is stuff worth pirating, stuff which can’t be found through other means or is way overpriced. Stuff like old movies or impossible to legally gather roms.

For all others: “convenience is king.”

And you’re smart to not pirate software. The. “no illegal software” rule has saved me many times.

Yeah, no.

The hunt is only fun if you’ve got time to spare.

Throw in a spouse, kids, good but demanding job, a place to live, social obligations, detoriating (geriatric) parents, and you’re so happy you can just mash one single button and your favourite track, game or series starts to play.

That’s the reason why people stop pirating. Time.

When time is not (yet) your most precious resource you can see the fun in anything. Even virus scanning.

This is a weird take. Just because someone is (or has been) successful he can’t speak about or for socialism?

You can’t be successful and a socialist? Is that it? That’s a very narrow and simply wrong view which has resulted in a lot of damage in societies which adopted it.

Socialism needs succes stories. Otherwise, what’s the point? Mediocrity for all? That will never fly or become popular.

I bought the Nokia 8010 TV box instead of the shield. I do not know if it’s available in your country. Why? Cheaper and same ish enough.

I like it but “like” is all there is. I do not love it. As most android boxes it is not 100% stable and needs a reboot after a week or so.

I red in several forums the nvidia shield has the same problem.

Tbh the appletv is the wise choice. Stable, more apps, better ecosystem, better soc, more storage. Plex also works on it.

I couldn’t use it unfortunately because my Atmos setup is not arc 2.0 and the appletv only does uncompressed atmos. With arc 1.x it’s only possible to send atmos compressed over dolby digital plus.

That’s just the Netherlands light.

Alleen barbaren noemen friet patat.

Dutchie here, we do the same. Everybody speaks (some form of) English, almost everything is also available in English.

In your car, your TV, your network, your dns…

Everywhere.

I just leave you with my favorite quote of Ljdawson, made during the reddit api war:

“I don’t know. I don’t track shit.”

He has crashlytics. That’s about it.

Tbh, I don’t care for open or closed source, I don’t even care for free or payed. (19 bucks per year… That’s like what, a coffee and a donut at a Starbuck?)

Stuff must just work and to be honest… All available clients all work sort of.

This one does this good but sucks at multi instances. That one screws up gifs from that and this site. Made an error typing your user name!/password during setup? Tough shit. You can’t edit it so redo from start, remove it and type well this time.

Sync just seems to work.

That’s not to shit on anyone hard work: I can’t do it, I can’t make them, I’m glad these clients exist. I don’t expect free tools to be perfect.

But I’m also superglad Sync for lemmy is a thing. And I will pay for it when it’s out of beta.

Actually, if you would go and watch the barbie movie instead of bitching about it you would find a very good Oscar worthy movie which humorously points out several flaws in our current society hiding in plain sight.

And truly, what or who is bigger then oppenheimer in modern history? The man literally changed the world and is more or less the reason behind the longest period of peace in the west and beyond. It turned out that fear, deterrence, is the only thing that keeps war away.

They got that message loud and clear in Iran and Northern Korea. Especially after what happened in Libya and Syria.

Anyway, politic bullshit aside so far 2023 is, I think, a very good year for cinema.

Next to that I’ve seen this meme repeat itself yearly over the last five years. It’s getting tiresome. It’s time to think up a new one.
