is it overengineering or just a push back against “make each program do one thing well,” and saying yeah but I have n things to do and I only need them done, well or not I just need them done and don’t want to dig through 20 files to do it…

love sonarr, radarr however never quiet worked for me. It doesn’t like my network drive and then when I got around that it had this bad habit of downloading movies it already knew I had again…

IDK their religion allows straight up substitution magic, they turn wine and crackers into pieces of their dead god. Why can’t thorns and pieces of wood turn into the implements that killed him?

Carpal tunnel is still a thing, my old manager had to get surgery on both wrists.

It is a clear signal, it says very clearly and in no uncertain terms they don’t want to talk to you.

Your need for “closure” or whatever doesn’t matter.

IDK I think Discovery is weak for like 2 season before it figures itself out and is currently pretty good.

If it wasn’t trek I would have checked out in season 1, but if you’re willing to push through I think it’s worth it.

I’m not into pen and paper rpgs (though i’m curios about them), but if you need a bunch of dice, why not use an app?

“Normal guy in 2000”

as someone who was into computers and in high school in 2000, that that was not normal.

even if yo mean normal computer literate person, not even then… Most people did not run their own servers, was it more common, yeah, but it wasn’t a given.

Things were only free if you were into piracy, everything cost money though without as much marketing, but then it wasn’t a huge market…

Also ads were everywhere and worse…

Thanks i hate it.

I’d rather be crazy than replace things that work perfectly well…

So leveraged buyouts which take productive companies saddle them with debt and then strip them of their assets are just a doomer fever dream?

Thank you.

Shitty business model

Fortnite goes brrrrr

They’ll keep doing whatever they can to get market share as long as it remains a money printer…

They’re still giving away free games, though the name recognition of them has fallen.

I’d heard of that before so after a quick google America passed the Metric Conversion Act in 1975 then in 1982 the Metric Board was abolished by President Ronald Reagan…

So like the harbinger of doom for American progress he was Regan killed it…

I’ve been down this rabbit hole and found nothing specifically for podcasts, but a lot of pods get posted to YouTube channels, which is a solved problem.

The users reddit lost are the whiniest ad blocking power users, I’m included in this group so don’t take it as an insult, maybe 3% of total users.

Reddit is still doing fine, long term the writing may be on the wall but the venture capitalist just need it to make it until September.

How does one go about getting invites to private trackers? I have yet to figure it out. The advice generally given is “know somebody” but I don’t so…

That’s the thing, reddit doesn’t need to be profitable for the venture capitalists to make their bag. They’re trying to cash out at the IPO and have no concern for it after that.
