No. It was seized by the New Zealand government. Don’t think that NZ is some great democracy, our govt is turning into an authoritarian nightmare the same as everywhere else. Mega can’t be trusted anymore

Teach her the wonders of Jellyfin and Stremio

Plex is already starting to add subscriptions for BS reasons.

This is lower light than the op

My orange does this too 😅

The thing that jumps out for me is the huge pupils. Cats only get that if its low light, they’re targeting something, or drugs. If they were targeting something then there is a massive mismatch between their posture and body language and their pupil dilation.

On the other hand, generative AI know that humans find large pupils on animals cute and is more likely to spit out an image of a cat with dilated pupils.

My money is on AI slop 🙁

Cries in kiwi due to decades of successive useless governments and entrenched car culture

I don’t think I will either. I gave up and did a general internet search to read people’s opinions instead.

This is the first time I’ve had this much slop come up in one video. The search I used was “Actual budget vs Firefly III”: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=actual+budget+vs+firefly+iii. I mostly watch Linux tech related videos, some gaming stuff, DIY, bit of comedy here and there, philosophy and some socio-anarchist stuff (ya know, like protecting your privacy lol). No idea why I would get so much slop from one search other than the enshittification of YouTube is accelerating :/

I subbed to this community but the barrage of political posts makes me want to unsub. I came here for amusingly infuriating posts not a constant reminder of how fucked up politics are (I’m not even in the US)

Sorry you’re getting down voted. NMS has my most played number of hours of any game. But my spouse and I have felt really demotivated to play it of late because of just how damn buggy it has gotten. It’s always been a buggy game (my Trace of Metal bug workaround was up for yeeears on Reddit before it was fixed and I’ve seen the odd comment that its still broken). The settlement update was completely unplayable for me and the bugs have piled higher with each update. We barely got through the Corvette expedition and missed the last one because the bugs have just killed our want to play. I wish there was more bug squashing and QOL updates than new ‘features’ that are actually just testing for Light No Fire.

I fill almost every pen I own with a syringe because I hate the mess that dipping pens or converters can cause. So that’s my main recommendation. Second method is a bit like filling a syringe. Dip nib, draw up ink with converter. Hold pen nib upwards and tap the pen to get the air to the top of the converter. Slowly screw the converter to push the air at the top out. Dip pen again again suck more ink in. Rinse and repeat till you have a satisfactory amount of fill. Honestly though, syringing ink into the converter is just easier. You can give the converter a little turn (once its back in the pen) to force ink into the feed faster if you can’t be arsed waiting for it to make its way down the feed. 😊

Ah, the privacy invasion is indeed the devil. I wish more folks cottoned on to Jitsi.

Aside: Have a look at SmartTube instead of NewPipe. It’s made for TVs and the devs are excellent at keeping it working despite Google constantly trying to block alternate front ends.

The arguments around piracy are less about legality (in most places its copyright infringement which is NOT “stealing” but is illegal). Its more the moral and ethical arguments. Is it moral for a service to remove something that you’ve paid for? Is it ethical for people, through no fault of their own, to not be able to afford entertainment. Is it moral for large corporations to price gouge and continuously Make Line Go Up while offering a continuously worse product? Is it moral to copy software not available in your country? Is it ethical for companies to force people into subscriptions for the sole purpose of making more money when they already have loads? Is it ethical to pirate when companies refuse to support the operating system you have? Is it moral to copy software when the company that makes it is not just unethical but has been found to be taking part in things like genocide? Is it ethical for huge corporations to manipulate democracy and laws to serve their profits at the expense of everyone else? Is capitalism itself ethical?

Most people I know who are anti-pirate just lack an understanding of why people engage in copyright infringement. Calling people “scum” and “thieves” without understanding the very big moral and ethical considerations behind what drives people to piracy is reductionist, ignorant and Othering for the sake of self-superiority.

Not saying that your partner thinks that way, just that its a very common example of thinking that misses the important points and that its not just about what’s legal and what’s not (because there are many things that are or have been illegal that are completely unethical.)

I keep meaning to sign up so now is as good time as any!

Last time I used Acrobat via WINE, it was more work than it was worth to get stable and running without issues :/

I tried doing print to PDF but it flattened the resultant PDF so the layers were lost. Almost all of the software I used to try converting altered the PDF layout in some way and patterns must not change at all, otherwise they get messed up :/

I was already able to remove the edit password with qpdf --decrypt. Most of the PDF editors I used, changed the PDF too much (e.g. added margins/padding) which ruined the very specific layout needed for the patterns to work. There has to be no changes to the PDFs apart from removing the ‘footer’ text :/
