I'm all for this protection but for the sake of argument isn't use of the service consent to begin with? Or is that the American argument around these types of regulation?
I'm a pihole, vpn, adblock and invidious user ftr.. 😂

Neither. It's a sorta scummy experience overall with the few actors I've paid the money for. At least that's my experience. If they offer an selfie in the autograph line. That's probably the best experience out of the paid options...
For the official photos. Your rushed through. Actor or whoever doesn't care your there. Your meeting them for like 30 seconds. Sorta feel like your being taken for your money. ( no way?!?)Actor might say hi how are you? And then your out with an awkward photo.
My best experiences was interacting acting with them naturally by mere chance outside of the con. Or once I waited just for a free autograph with Matt Mercer and that was 200% worth it.
Pretty much the same, captain.
I work so much more efficiently at home. I'm mostly remote. Come in a couple days a month. The days I go in are trying to zone out all the office distractions. Also I have to use a hotel docking station setup that I will always have an problem with at least something about it. A sizeable portion of my day is just getting setup and into a work state. I work in software development with cloud platforms. Going into the office I know I'm gonna get fuck all done. Also the Internet is way worse on site.
However there is a few people on my team that do fuck all everyday. I keep hearing rumors that they are gonna make us come back. It's frustrating because you know the few ones that are taking advantage are gonna be an easy excuse for management to call us in.
Yeah the media should be ashamed of how that got out of control. It was one broken English quote from a random Israeli soldier without any fact checking.
Doing throwing knives and pistols. Having a blast. Reflex and Cool. With tech coming in 3rd. Throwing knives are a good mix of challenge and badassery one shots. Not following a build just having fun.
I am generally uninformed on this conflict beyond reading a a synopsis or history for the pass century or so this week, the agenda on either side seems pretty blatant from the media outlets. Now I haven't seen Israeli media directly but seeing what us centric media is reporting My god, I watched fox news and they were basically foaming at the mouth and showing the same clips and had a woman that would say the same thing every few hours trying to dehumanize the other side. I watched al Jazeera last night for a few hours and they frame the attack on Saturday as a counter attack (forever recursively correct) overlook what happened as much as possible and frame context to give it a morality pass and generally are trying to downplay how western media is reporting it.. I took a look at who owns al Jazeera, it's state run media from Qatar. We all know foxnews is basically ultra conservatives circle jerk. It's two sides slinging shit. However, al Jazeera seems to point out the lack of Israeli media allowing any western reporting of what's really happening in gaza which I 100% agree with. It's good to get perspective on either sides but to me both western and Arab centric outlets are obviously pushing their agendas.
I acknowledge my ignorance on the complexities on this issue and am only providing my take as someone trying to understand this issue from the woefully biased reporting surrounding this issue.
Yep I'm very impressed with syncthing. I just started using it a few weeks ago.
What's amusing is I am purposely not paying for bitwarden because of the check against darkweb leaks or whatever type feature when you pay. That's seems like an anti privacy thing. I understand it's a good idea albeit seems to expose a lot of information about you. I would like to do vaultwarden but don't think I can trust self hosting myself without paying monthly for a vps which I don't want to do. Home Internet hosting seems to unreliable to me for something that important.
Just random thoughts of mine here.
I'm doing alright and I've learned to live with it. Got on adhd meds that have helped a lot. Still trying to find the right depression meds. It's all mild stuff. I call it millennial or garden variety depression. 😂 Thank you for your kind words.
Yeah, it's either I fall asleep stupid early or stay up late not doing what I want because of my anxiety/depression/ADHD. If I ever actually do something the way I want it's so rare and I'm already in my head about how rare it is and the effort involved gets me out of it after only an hour or two.
Spotify is nearing the cut point for me. Subbed since 2011. The UI is getting worse...
