same here. the last optical drive i had was used to rip my girlfriends dvd collection about 12 years ago. all still here on hunks of spinning rust if needed, but the space consuming load of dvds went to the flea market.

My Plex share doesn’t care lol

The way the industry is pulling the screws tighter and tighter is just ugly to watch, and it’s hard not to be caught out.

I agree with you, being someone who has fought with his weight my entire life. The excess calories are there to fill a need, with mechanisms similar to substance abuse or gambling addiction. “Just stop eating too much” can feel like an unachievable goal.

Any weight loss of an obese person should be combined with psychiatric care, because if you don’t identify WHY you are eating so much, you might just trade one addiction for another one.

“The ‘work-to-rule’ announced is an insidious form of industrial action which will have a cumulative and negative impact on Aer Lingus customers”

if you have to cancel 20% of your flights because your pilots start working according to their contract, after you do not give them a pay raise that covers inflation and drag the talks out 22 months, then you are a scumbag of an employer and deserve to see how your precious company that is built on slavery goes down the drain.

the post was in the top10 of “active” in /all, so everyone gets a vote, and it IS a topic where emotions tend to run high, regardless of stance to the topic, so thats to be expected

That gave a really nice overview for someone who hasn’t had to dabble in IPV6 yet, thanks!

true if big

The things you listed is what society wants you to do, not what you want to do. Do some hard thinking what YOU want to do with your life and what is important to you; nothing else will give you peace and fulfillment. You can set some long term goals if you want, but from experience i tell you to start with something small and keep that up, that’s hard enough as it is.

If what you achieve and what you want is not the same, you will not be happy at all.

I don’t understand why large scale cyberattacks by state actors do not count as an act of war. Not that I would want that, but it’s an hostile act against military and government targets, and i don’t see that the west reacts in any way.

I feel for the fans, but it’s the right signal at a critical time. Artists have the means to sway the public opinion and energize people.

Compare that to the private Foo Fighters gig for Amazon execs, which cost a ton while they were kicking out workers because “every dollar counts”.

You can’t win with these people because Democrats are Democracy is “the enemy”

Outside of suicidality, it’s important to not give advice outside of what’s asked for. It’s useful to talk in respect to your own experiences and not make universal claims about what works for you personally.

Thanks for this.

There is a german proverb for this: “Ratschläge sind auch Schläge”, meaning that advice, even when given with good intention, feels like a punch. Every time someone gave me advice i didn’t ask for while depressed felt horrible, like an accusation of laziness and lack of discipline. Don’t do this.

looks like a gothic variant of a battlestar galactica viper

i think i would get notified in some way if the Mozilla Foundation changes ownership, and since it’s open source that is not much of an argument. open source is getting more common the last few years, but it’s definitely not common

sure, it doesn’t mean they can’t. everyone making their own app also means that they don’t per default.

and you didn’t touch the point regarding NO ADBLOCKING IN APPS while the whole debate here is because alphabet doesn’t want effective adblocking in their browser.

• no unified password management (or even worse: everything gets just attached to your google/ios account - i hate apps that do not give me the option to keep stuff separate)
• no history functions (esp. over multiple devices)
• single apps getting bought out by marketing corpos or bad actors without getting notified
• data sniffing apps are harder to reign in than my sandboxed browser tabs.
• NO ADBLOCKING AVAILABLE IN APPS

I’m sure there are a lot more reasons, that’s just what came into my mind

he has such a punchable face, my right hand starts itching every time i see a picture of him

you forgot the latent brain damage from taking a few too many hits
