I've downloaded a hard copy just in case.

Wow, that is shocking.

Source? That would be very shocking.

Perfectly said, it encapsulates America to a tee.

We need to shift the dynamic in America from relying on these media conglomerates, to individuals doing their own research on things. Everyone knows the news media is rigged beyond saving, we need to let them die out, it's what they all deserve for betraying the trust of the people.

The second I clicked in here, I immediately remembered your website. (That green theme is very iconic and memorable). When I was a young teenager, I remember visiting your site plenty of times and downloading things off of it. Probably something like Linux ISOs, or music. I was a nerdy kid who really liked the idea of peer to peer stuff, I guess.

I probably tried to contribute some RuneScape-related content, but it likely didn't stay seeded for long haha.

Thanks for maintaining such a great website.

Absolutely, well beyond nagware at this point (with default settings).

All of these gross advertising decisions baked into the operating system disgust me. Not to mention all the tracking they probably do to you on top of it.

The best solution I've found is Windows 10 IoT Enterprise. It feels like an alternate timeline where Microsoft didn't dive headfirst into manipulative advertising practices. None of those pointless bloatware apps, no blatant advertising loitered across the OS.

I don't want tabloid trash baked into my start menu. It would be one thing if we were actually allowed to curate and choose the news, but it's all selected for us. It feels like they're trying to manipulate the way people think with decisions like that.

GrapheneOS supports this with a feature called Storage Scopes. Instead of giving an app access to your entire photo library and files, you can limit its scope to an individual folder of your choice.

That way the app still gets the permissions it asked for, but they're specifically what you want it to see.

What are you referring to?

Time for another three years of lockdowns. (I hope not)

Got any previews of your work? Lol.

> Can you be specific?

Here's an example.

In other news, water is wet.

Wow, I had no idea about that stereotype, that's a bit sad.

I'm not sure why you would inherently assume using Plex means they likely pirate their media. I have a home server running plex where I store all the ripped bluray disks, CDs, and other media I buy.

Does Plex really have that kind of reputation?

I've always found Arabic script to be pretty beautiful, the shapes and the flow of the letters is really striking, especially with good calligraphy.

That is so cool, people really think of everything don't they?
