Oof. That hurts just hearing about it.

Yeah, I know how crazy expensive e-ink is, so I was curious what this dude paid. Dropping 2k on this means you have a lot of cash lying around.

That 32" display is priced as “ask for a quote”, lol.

Lenovo has been offering laptops without Windows for quite some time. I bought one with FreeDOS because I wanted to run Linux over 10 years ago. Really nice that they do that for you now.

Fucking asshole. We really do need to change the way we run businesses. Mainly by removing all billionaires.

The funny thing is that the people who can afford all that overpriced garbage are usually so old, they can’t hear all that well anymore.

It’s more about users being able to find them again. If they lose all domain names, it becomes difficult to figure out which are the new ones.

I know, it’s hard to bring nuance to this. The current copyright system is completely fucked. I think we still need some sort of copyright, but one that expires after like 10 years after first publication. I would actually be fine with everything being used to train AI models, if AI wouldn’t require ungodly amounts of resources and the companies wouldn’t be owned by tech bro assholes. If it would belong to us all, be free to use and not burn down our world even quicker, AI would be fine.

Fuuuck copyright.

These sites are losing domain names left and right at the moment. The fucking copyright mafia is spending a lot of effort at the moment.

Kim Schmitz has always been a grifter and an asshole. I wish him all the worst.

Katherine Long sounds great. Her second attack, with fake board meeting notes is so dedicated.

My daughter got into anime through friends and I got some street creds by talking about how things used to be. Buying laserdiscs in Japan, subbing them and showing them at conventions. I subbed two episodes of some show I don’t remember. Or shipping VHS tapes across continents. My daughter doesn’t care, of course. But her friends were impressed. I fear that that was my last hurrah, though. I got nothing else.

The cruelty is the point.

Do kids these days know what a CD is and have a computer with a disk drive? And even if they did, would they care enough to try it? Sounds very unlikely.

They seem to use MPEG-DASH, which shows as a series of MP4 files each returning 206 Partial Content. I tried https://github.com/emarsden/dash-mpd-cli to download it using the MPD XML file, which you can find by filtering for “master” in your browsers network log. But that didn’t work. Still, you might want to spend more time on it than I have at the moment.

Can you give us the URL?
