If you’ve been using Windows for decades, Linux is absolutely not easier to use. Troubleshooting Windows for me is super easy and nowadays I hardly have to troubleshoot at all. It kinda just works™. Troubleshooting Linux as a noob is absolutely atrocious and I’ve always run into a problem with Linux within the first couple of weeks.

That said, I wish I grew up using Linux, so it’d be second nature to me. I really would like to ditch Windows. Problem is, I’m already burnt out from my job, I really don’t have the energy to make the switch yet.

People that really want convenience just pay for streaming services.

Streaming services stopped being convenient a couple of years ago. Introduction of ads, content strewn all over the place, shitty UI, etc.

I went with Stremio because it has everything in one place. Seeding is not an option because Germany is a shit country for seeding Torrents.

Real Debrid does the torrenting while the end user downloads the cached content. I’m not sure if they seed or not however.

Yet here I am, in Germany, seeing that many US citizens apparently care about the situation. This I might not have known without this article.

It’s about exposure. That’s why climate activists glue themselves to the streets here in Germany. Does it make sense? Not really. Do people know the cause they’re fighting for? Absolutely. That’s a good thing.

Correct. Bavaria once tried the same thing, but then MS went to the local politicians, sucked their dicks a bit and boom, back to MS products it is! Hopefully the north doesn’t fall for that kind of shit, and they likely won’t because Bavaria is a backwards piece of shit of a Bundesland while Schleswig Holstein is kinda cool.

Mate, you should leave your emotions out of these kind of discussions. It’ll just have the opposite effect of what you’d like. Please stick to the facts.

Yeah, BYD is massively subsidized by the government, mainly to try to destroy the western EV market. I’m really on the fence on that one. On the one hand, I’d like our car Industry to be a bit more disruptive and come up with cheaper solutions (fuck SUVs, the German car Industry is just making huge luxury cars that are way too expensive, both capex and opex wise). On the other hand, I don’t want Winny the Pooh gaining influence on the west.

This whole ordeal sounds like a classic reddit moment.

While I do agree with a couple of points, the amount of greens isn’t a problem. Especially in Japan they like to load heaps of spring onions onto their food. Okonomiyaki often has a mountain of spring onions.

And this isn’t a photography community. While most pictures here are just plain sad, this one has some color in it. And it’s about the food I guess.

I think this is one of the better pictures here. Most pictures have sad lighting and show some depressing, unidentifiable brown mass.

They do need a shaper knife however.

Fair enough!

Guess I’m just a bit excited, since I’ve finally gone back to pirating after more than a decade. And Stremio is just really nice. Only thing I’m missing is the possibility of creating profiles. Can’t let my 8 year old daughter use it like this.

The setup is super easy though. And you’re paying way less than for Netflix, but you get way better quality, can download the videos, and you have everything in one place. You can also get an add-on that gives you the suggestions from all of the streaming services.

Nope, since real-debrid is doing the torrenting, you’re only downloading the cached content. You can use a VPN if it makes you feel safer, but it’s not really necessary.

Edit: just make sure to connect a Real-debrid account to Torrentio! They do the illegal stuff, while you just download without uploading, which is in a legal grey zone (in Germany).

The SNES also doesn’t require active cooling. The stress on the components is none existent. It also doesn’t have an integrated display, battery etc. And let’s be honest, pretty much anything from 20-30 years ago was built way more robust than the finicky stuff you get nowadays.

Nah, the thermal load on the Switch components is way higher than in the old handhelds. Plus, we’re living in a time where corners are cut and obsolescence is planned. The switch will never last 20 years without repairs to battery/PCB/display/etc.

So essentially Stremio with Torrentio and Real-debrid!

Thank you very much! And please excuse my harsh phrasing. Let me change that, in retrospect that was a bit over the top. I’m massively over-worked and get triggered rather quickly nowadays.

Hope you get banned. Anyone can feel free to go through my comments. They’ll find that I’m anti AfD. Fuck Nazis, fuck the AfD (edited the last part out, as it was a personal insult. The rest still stands though!)

This. If it has to be torrents, then do it via a Debrid service such as Real Debrid. They do the torrenting, while the user only downloads the cached data. That’s how I understood it at least. Stremio + Torrentio via Real-debrid is what I’m using for streaming high quality shows and movies.

I absolutely hate to watch subtitles appear word for word. So no, please no live captions.

I have lived in Germany for over 30 years now. I just saw the difference between the Netherlands and Denmark vs Germany. It’s kind of sad how we shut ourselves into our own little language bubble, yet the world has so much to offer. I prefer watching movies in French/Spanish/Japanese/whatever with subtitles. I believe that a huge portion of the trade that is acting is conveyed through language. By overdubbing these movies a lot of the actual appeal is lost.
