I don't mind paying, but since I've set up jellyfin and the arr stack I'm getting a better service than anything you can actually buy.

I don't want to flick between a dozen apps to see which sliver of content they've allowed me to view.

Jesus can spike a girl's drink from across the room.

It wasn't until after they all dies that I realised that all the model Spitfires and things my granddad had weren't from his memories of fighting in WW2. He was in school during WW2. He just liked model planes.

Yeah, it'll grab a few frame, crunch them up, post back something like "ac8c986ffcb770d460151b20c1cfe628612247ac2d284c780761af3b544bfea7" to the servers and from there it likely gets binned as "not recognised" but might match a segment from Star Wars 4K77.

It sounds like the sort of thing that should be off by default (and it probably is, I haven't bought a new one for years), but what we've learnt since GDPR is that if a big box comes up over what you're trying to do and it has an "Accept" button, people will generally click it and read nothing just to get back to another riveting episode of America's Deadliest Home Shootouts or something.

Actual paper here.

It is not sending full screenshots as anybody technical would already have guessed. It's a few KB over an hour, so it's content recognition hashes.

Opt out anyway. Their study shows the opt out option does indeed opt you out of it.

Good to know so we can avoid them.

How about making a law so we do?

They only left because they were taking a lot of losses.

Because I don't have a full time cleaner to keep the dust off everything.

Good luck disarming a group with (supposedly) more weapons and fighters than your actual army.

If they had done it, I suspect Israel would have rolled over the border long ago.

And it's going to be competing with the Ghost of Tsushima sequel.

For me they're different enough to not really be in competition, but they felt the need to issue a statement about it, so they're obviously a bit worried.

Not that I'm that interested in either. Give me that Soul Reaver remaster baby. Inject that shit into my veins.

Well I can buy a pack of 16 in Tesco for £0.39

So we're actually paying pretty close to the same amount per pill, just in smaller packs.
