I watch a lot of his videos. But I didn't watch this one because I loathe and resent clickbait titles. I would imagine a fair number of people chose not to watch and down voted because of the clickbait title alone.

Maybe shouldn't have used a clickbait title then?

It's not nature being "brutal" that's the issue (I wouldn't even call it brutal because nature is what it is regardless of how we feel about it) - the issue is humans mocking or taking delight in an animal's pain.

Will it work running in a VM with pass through?

This is kinda what we do. But in our case we use both because personal storage is not cheap in this country and thus our self-hosted storage is limited. All out favourites that we watch repeatedly stays on the home server but we use Stremio and Torbox (because no way we're going to use RD after theyb doxed customers) for one offs, shows were trying out, etc.

I don't feel like this adequately accounts for stupid people though. The number of times I've seen people freak out over a perfectly legit website because a cert warning popped up or others who have ignored the warning and clicked through to a scam or malware... 🤦‍♀️

You get that fish feel pain right? Would this still be considered funny if that was a domestic cat in excruciating pain and terrified?

My longest running Arch install was 6yo. I cleaned it up every so often (old configs, left over packages, old caches, etc) but beyond that it really didn't need a reinstall. It never got slow over time (unlike Windows). At worst, I would sometimes delete confif files if there were major changes just so I could start fresh with a particular package/app.

In fact, it would have gone longer but I built a new PC. On that PC my Arch install was 4yo before I took the plunge to try CachyOS.

This isn't mildly interesting or even mildly sad, it's a lot sad 🌳😭

Oh please gods yes. Advertising is violence and even though most of my life is now ad free, I still can't avoid the advertising scourge being shoved into my eyeballs every time I leave my house. It would be a blessed weight lifted from my already tired brain to never see a single ad again.

And yet I was saying just today there's no way I'd go to the movies to see it anyway... Because Microsoft. Yet another example of how they'd never get money anyway but no doubt there'll be another article claiming they lost billions from the leak or some bs

You do realise that most medical research these days is for-profit? The only thing opening these databases to medical research will do is increase the profit lining the pockets of the already mega wealthy (and corrupt) industrial medical complex.

Damn, some months ago I came across a void for adoption that had very unusual white flecks on its body. Now I'm even more sad I didn't adopt him 😿

Too bad, its April 2nd for me lol

You joke but a (NZer) family member on an overseas holiday got into an argument with a local over the existence of NZ. Family member, being a tourist, was asked where they were from and said New Zealand. Nothing strange there. Local said that NZ was a state in Australia. Confidently incorrect. When my family member tried to correct them, they argued they were right and the person who was from the actual country was utterly wrong 🤦‍♀️

Came here to say the same thing. Using the term "bricking" in the title had me very confused. It would be catastrophic if this was actually bricking computers.

If you want to get really technical, each Signal account actually has a 'secret' account number that the phone number is linked to. The phone number requirement is actually a means to reduce spam and scam accounts.

Maybe its a shared device that kids also use? We have a laptop that's shared amongst everyone and I constantly come back to finding random desktop wallpapers from Minecraft to Undertale to Pokemon and I think the latest is Transformers related lol.

Yes. I have an NVME as my OS drive but most of my home directory (Documents, Videos, Pictures, Music, etc.) is on an older large data HDD. My .config and anything else is still on the NVME. I use fstab to mount the directories automatically.

And why I replaced my phone with a Pixel and installed GrapheneOS straight away.
