Smosh humor.

Cycling kickstarters have an awful track record. Make sure it's make by an actual cycling company and even then it's better to do a late pledge after some fulfillment and reviews.

It just sucks because he's getting a relatively "white glove" treatment compared to the usual drug war policies. Criminalization was always wrong and Joe Biden caused that in his actions in the Senate. If Joe Biden can learn empathy for drug addicts through his son I hope something good comes of it.

I could see a world in which the US becomes even more cucked for Saudi oil instead. Venezuela ain't gonna cut it.

Everything search app is easily my most used on my Windows PC. Instant, as-you-type file search by name with detail sorting and wildcard support. I set a keyboard shortcut as well. It puts Explorer search to shame. As good as Spotlight, which I was missing from when I had a Mac in 2008.

LaunchyQT - modern fork of Launchy that actually gets development. App launcher, dead simple.

FanControl - Fan curve software with all the features I want including hybrid temp sources, sensible automatic settings, visual graphs with an intuitive interface.

AutoHotKey - Hotkey scripting language that I can use even as someone who barely codes.

Transcribe! - Not open-source but it's a reasonably priced audio and video slow down app for transcribing.

Yeah, it makes very little sense to "play the long game" on a private site to spread malware to a small user base when you could just go to any public tracker where it's the Wild West. Could someone do it? Sure, but it's really not realistic to expect that regularly.

Some of them have freeleech on some torrents. TorrentLeech has freeleech on every torrent over a certain size (I think 15 GB) + Box Sets of any size and then you just have to seed for 10 days total, then you can stop without penalty to your ratio. I have never paid money to TorrentLeech for access. I suppose this would change quickly if I was downloading individual episodes of a new show or 10 to 14.99 GB torrents, but that's not my usual usage pattern.

I will say that some of your criticism is correct. I will often avoid using the private tracker to avoid having to seed for 10 days. I can't get to a 1.0 ratio on private trackers, but I can on public ones, but freeleech seeding adds to my ratio with no penalty for downloading. The zero-sum vibe is both real and off-putting.

I currently have a ratio surplus of 34 GB, and it started me with 25 GB. The benefit is if I really want something, it's easy to access

Yes, instances are quaking in their boots that lemmy world might *checks notes* block two specific communities. Chilling to would-be pirates everywhere.

The lemmy code is free as in beer and free as in freedom, so you don't need to give any info to use it yourself.

It seems kind of strange that "prey animals" would be what they are called in an official document. An analogous situation is how we call it "enslaved persons" now instead of "slaves" because that describes what is/was being done to them rather than essentializing them as a "natural" class which is taken for granted.

Also, one year minimum seems rather short for what is essentially a murder-like charge unless their lives are very short like cats in real life.

Hexbear is about to federate with us in about a week if you wanted to wait for that.

Is it actually making you happy to play it? Because that's what made me quit the gacha game I was in for 5 years.

I watched it and it's intriguing. The characters have similar roles to the real show and speak in similar ways. The problem is that the "writer" has no point of view and therefore the satire was completely missing.
