Man, I don’t know honestly. I believe i first saw / read it on IRC in the 90’s…

and now I’m turning to dust. haha

Thanks for being social!!!

"Wow, how cool is it that she’s 13 and already works for the FBI! "

I am so, so close to doing the same. Still have a small partition carved out for CoD and Windows. I just find myself booting in to it less and less.

Thank goodness MicroVision seems to be keen on continuing to flog that dead horse with a Warzone focus, means I can finally be free.

Thanks for the rec! Typing on it now. Pretty decent so far. I dig the hover on the word as i swipe

Also posting from a Pixel 7 running Graphene for abouta year. No issues, I use Fdroid for most apps and Aurora when I have too. Only bummer is I haven’t found a good FOSS keyboard with swipe. Really miss gboard for that and gif insertion.

I built my entire cloud storage strategy around Google drive because it had very simple integration with my previous seed box provider. Like, I could run Plex from the cloud through them directly off of my Google drive and then mirror that to local storage.

Super slick and easily usable setup. In a push to completely de-google my life the past 2 years I had to figure out an effective migration strategy off of that stack.

It was a total pain in the ass. Not to mention moving the rest of the people on my family plan off of Google as well. The majority of them are fairly tech savvy and even with that in mind we struggled.

I am now 100% self-hosted and learned a shit ton about docker along the way but, I couldn’t imagine trying to do the same thing with a group of entry level users.

The last sentence resonates with me. I too wore a robe and wizard hat back in the day.

Are we married to the same person?

Then we also kick the cops in the nads.

There’s always one!

Must of been how they used the little red nub.

Lol…is that some kind of threat?

Nazi bullshit isn’t free speech. That’s a trash argument. You need to look inside and find what part of you is broken if you think otherwise. Fuck Nazi anything. They don’t have a right to free speech. They lost that when they became Nazi’s.

It’s crazy how they fucked themselves out of revenue streams so completely. Within 6 months of canceling all our streaming services, I was able to pick up 4x16tb HDD’s for a JBOD connected to a NUC for about the same cost (likely less all said).

A lot of us that grew up sailing the seas became stable enough to afford the media we wanted and docked our ships. Now, I’m back on my favorite newsgroups like it was 2001.

There’s that quote from GabeN, I won’t repost it, but it’s true. There’s a serious service problem and the greed isn’t helping. Now I’ve got a multi terabyte NAS and backup with a streaming services and a Steam account I’ll never make through the backlog of.

All that said, when possible, I still by the stuff I like on physical, but even that is getting harder and harder anymore.

The biggest mistakes these shareholder appeasing cock puppets are making is thinking we don’t have a choice anymore. We do and they are greater than they’ve ever been.

This looks fantastic! Thanks for the recommendation.

I unfortunately don’t have MAX anymore after they dropped Westworld (and all the other crazy shit that happened around a year or so ago) so I may also have to borrow a copy from my friend the internet…

Edit: Looks like my son already put in a Requestarr for it and it’s in Sonarr. The *arr stack really has changed the game after I was out of the scene for 10 or so years.

When companies deny us avenues to watch / purchase their products wtf do they expect to happen?

I run O&O Shut Up 10 on every install of Windows 10 and 11 I need to suffer through. There’s still a bit of manual config to remove search bar and other GUI stuff but it’s a pretty great, free tool.

You also might want to script it to run on boot as Windows loves to revert changes after updates as another commentor noted.

Completely off topic but your username is rad. Now I’ll be humming that song all day.

We had a pretty big event at Game Crazy. I think those shirts finally got retired after my kid grew out of them quite a few years ago.

I unfortunately… put them in the dryer to much throughout the years and they seem to have shrank. Yeah, that’s what happened.

Aww man, good to know! I wish we had a microcenter nearby. Closest one is at least a state away.

Maybe they’ll ship it. Haha
