Know how you feel. I’m almost 40, and even though my dad has been dead for 5 years now, the feeling still won’t go away. The PTSD is so bad that loud voices startle me, and I can’t use a computer if someone is looking over my shoulder.

My dad taught me how to lie and obsess over privacy so I wouldn’t feel his wrath. I should be in therapy.

Replace mom with dad, and this is my childhood.

You don’t know trauma unless you’ve been raised by a bipolar narcissist with anxiety and anger issues. My dad was a master at sucking all the energy out of a room and ruining the vibe with his selfish, fear-mongering bullshit.

Really? What’s your favorite custom ROM for modern iPhones?

Vibe coding is when an AI writes the code for you.

One thing I miss about working at Amazon was not only the 4 day work weeks, but the fact that they handed out PTO so generously that you could literally call off one day every single week (or sleep in and come in late every single day, which is what I did), and it was absolutely fine.

But unfortunately I had to leave cause I got tired of the thermostat being set to 83°F, and the management who wouldn’t lift a finger for anybody. Still, not the worst place in the world to work. You can just put on your headphones, load up a playlist of podcasts, and zone out for your entire shift. Not having to go through an interview process is nice too. Just show up, take a picture, spit on a sponge (they don’t drug test for weed), and you’re hired.

Want to really feel old? It’s been that way for around 20 years now.

Same. Always loved the beach. Wish I could afford to live by the sea. Hell, I wish I could afford to live within 100 miles of a beach.

Such as?

Which places?

I fucking love it. Gen Z slang is so lighthearted and fun.

Their entire reason to exist is to host copyrighted content. They’re just telling the French what they want to hear to get them off of their asses.

Yes I understand that. I never said that they were the same. You don’t need R-D to use Stremio, but it’s a much smoother experience if you do, cause you can stream instantly without waiting for seeds.

The point I’m making is that any drama involving R-D beefing with trackers doesn’t affect the amount of content available on Stremio. Other trackers exist to fill in the gaps. That’s all I’m saying.

Never had any issues. It works perfectly when I use it with 1337x and TBP.

Dont know why they’re beefing with those trackers specifically, but it doesn’t affect Stremio’s operations one bit. I can still stream any movie or show I want instantly to my TV.

Alas, you can always use a different Debrid service. I simply prefer R-D because it’s the most popular, which means that tends to have more content available for instant stream rather than having to wait for seeds. Almost every torrent I want has already been cached by another user for instant download.

Stremio + Torrentio + Real-Debrid

That’s nothing; my Ryzen 7000 machine uses 150w at idle. Modern high-end desktops draw a lot of power.

My X670E system also uses a shitload of power. Literally 150w at idle, no matter what I do. Tried disabling every unnecessary feature in the BIOS and enabling all the energy efficient settings I can find, to no avail. Drives me nuts.

I have astigmatism and disagree wholeheartedly. Light mode is like staring into the sun.

Why would anyone want this?

And emulation is legal too, but that doesn’t stop Nintendo.

As much as they love to sue people, I don’t understand why Nintendo doesn’t go after Apple for trademark infringement, so that they’re forced to finally come up with a better method of storing folder attributes.
