Baghdad Barbie: “This isn’t Linda’s fault… it’s Sans Serif’s fault!”

No sure whether to crosspost this to c/NotThe Onion or c/NaziOnion

Yeah, I too remember there was some anger but not the reason for it. Licensing issues, maybe? Anyway, with the kerfuffle, bloat, and Java requirement, it didn’t have enough to keep me from µTorrent.

Also been using qBittorrent for the last few years, on Windows and the last two years on Linux. With search plugins for key sites, so I can avoid the popups that even uBlock Origin can’t prevent.

(Due to an unpatched security vulnerability in the repo version of qB, currently using AppImages of latest versions of both qB and qB-enhanced. Only difference I personally notice is that qB-enhanced follows my system theme, dark.)

You’re welcome :)

re OT question: I remember trying out Azureus a bit back in the day, and with its “legit content distribution” section getting to watch this video:

YouTube - Benny Benassi - Satisfaction

But I didn’t stick with it, mainly used µTorrent and eMule.

Used to use Floorp, then Zen, now on Firedragon, a mod of Floorp with many features from Librewolf.

So sad this is necessary now.

Clearview buys photo-ID-for-porn database in 3… 2… 1…

Or hosted in a way that is itself P2P? Like IPFS or ZeroNet?

Conservatives who are actually conservative??? Not radical lunatic rightists who do or say whatever Trump wants?

I didn’t realize any were left.

TIL Planet Hollywood still existed.

Two decades torrenting in Mexico (also periods of eMule and Soulseek), never a problem. No VPN, no seedbox, no Tailscale.

What about a dumb TV with a Roku Xpress?

Their logo is even a variation of the RSS logo.

I remember seeing a doc about Wall of Death motorcycle riders. The bikes they used? Century-old 1910 Indians.

Why? Because when lives depend on it, you want a solution with the absolute fewest possible things that can go wrong. Not the latest fancy thing with all the bells and whistles.

Re bottom left photo, Phan Thi Kim Phuc was burned by napalm dropped by the Republic of Vietnam Air Force.

1. “sort”: that’s the word for the options of “new”, “scaled”, “active” etc, right?
2. “New” does seem to improve things.
3. @Die4Ever pointed out there’s a “Show Read Posts” option in the settings. I’ve unticked that and will see how it goes.

Thanks.

Thanks! I missed that. I’ve unticked it now and will see how it goes.
