I always see premium nowadays as “not the absolute bottom of the barrel”

• Premium hotel room: not the cupboard in the basement with a single mattress and a broken TV but the next one up. No view or anything though unless you upgrade to a deluxe or higher

• Premium economy seat on a flight: basically cattle class but with one inch extra leg room and fake leather seat cushions. Still can’t lie down or access better loos like in business or first class

• Premium spirits: supermarket own-brand spirits but in a glass bottle rather than the super cheap shit they sell in plastic bottles

Etc…

Yeah we’re all planning to fall asleep on the couch watching Netflix. Just like they did in the before times when they still sold this stuff in stores!

The states you mentioned all have nukes

For me it’s more about keeping multiple systems in sync and working as intended. E.g. I have my laptop, a home server with couple different distros and a few cloud VMs. Whenever I change a keybind in neovim or tmux or whatever, I just save the changes in a slightly different way and now every machine has those changes so I don’t need to update each machine manually.

What other unrelated topics do you wish to discuss?

Whataboutism masterclass right here

The best way I can explain it is it’s like when kids will say:

“You’re stupid!”

“Nuh-uh!”

“Yuh-uh!”

Jo is like “yuh-uh” but not as silly sounding because it’s used all the time in normal conversation. I think doing it on the inhale is just a way of making it sound less aggressive/argumentative but I’m not really sure.

Fair enough! Def worth a watch

There’s also RapidRAW, a much newer FOSS project with a much more focussed goal of actually being a simple lightweight Lightroom replacement. There are a lot of basic features still missing but it’s worth following.

Not sure about amazon but if you search for deezloader/deemix you’ll find ways to self-host services that download flacs from deezer. Also, there are services on most chat apps that will do it for you too if you search for the same terms.

Jesse adding “removed” to that sentence in that scene is an example of the Mandela effect. Lots of people remember it that way, but he actually says “Yeah science! Yeah Mr. White!”

Yeah lol last time I needed a new GPU because mine died, it was pretty much the peak of Ethereum mining. I was doing lots of freelance motion graphics work at the time and needed something beefy but all these guys were buying every high spec card that came out, in bulk, to mine ETH.

Really hoping my 3090 doesn’t suddenly burst into flames in the next few months… fingers crossed.

Yeah, I just don’t want my ISP knowing what I’m doing at all.

Never heard of flaresolver, thanks for the tip!

I don’t think I have Limetorrents enabled so will add that too. Is that the priority order you have them in then? Leet, lime, eztv and then tpb?

I’ve been getting this message with 1337x.to recently with whatever VPN I use so had to disable it:

Unable to access 1337x.to, blocked by CloudFlare Protection.

But do you think they’re currently the best on there?

I’m using prowlarr, I’m asking about the specific indexers within prowlarr and their order

“I’ve got nothing to hide”

Their joke but worse

The author of btop wrote bpytop first and then when it got popular, they decided to rewrite it in C++

On the health front, the number of people calling themselves Dr. Whatever on YouTube and social media talking about all kinds of health conditions is huge. They talk about anything from dermatology to diets to cancer prevention but when you actually look into what type of doctor they are, it always ends up being Doctor of Chiropractic a.k.a. Doctor of pseudoscientific semi-religious bullshit that isn’t even recognised in my country, but for some reason is in the US, yet they go about masquerading as real medical doctors!

Drives me nuts!
