  • I was lucky in the early 90s in that my dad had a PC for work. A 14.4 modem and random BBS's to dial up to, and I got an interesting first experience with computers. Our local library had UNIX PCs, so I had to learn random protocols like telnet and gopher to access anything. Once I got to middle school we had labs like this. I definitely miss the LAN café feel of that era.

  • Either that or Libertarian

  • Oof

  • All new Star Wars movies and tv shows

  • Meetup groups

  • Good thing I dont use Windoze 11

  • People only saw the percentage returns and not the human cost. We haven't learned our lessons and are doomed to repeat the same scenarios.

  • I would encourage you to look into a recent documentary about the congressional testimony from numerous high ranking intelligence officers - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Age_of_Disclosure

    tl;dr Of the claims they make in the documentary, the biggest thing (to me) appears to be a massive siphoning of tax dollars into black ops programs that don't report up through the government. Whether there are actual UFO/UAP programs is up to debate.

  • His interview with Channel 5 was on point

  • Yellow mustard and cheddar cheese on wheat bread

  • The filing should be easy. Proving it might be tough. He knows enough to deny, defend, depose.

  • That's a fair point to bring up. You're right that it is an investment that has paid for itself in terms of a streaming service. Much better than hooking a laptop up to a TV and playing files directly, forgetting which episode you are on, or where you stopped watching a movie when you want to resume.

    My thought with Jellyfin is that I don't generally watch outside my home network. I have sent invites to friends to watch my library, but none do. So most of the features I don't use at all. I could have saved myself the money, learned how Jellyfin works, and probably set it up exactly how I currently use Plex by now.

  • I bought a plex pass about 5 years ago. I figured it would be a reasonable long term investment. I am starting to think I should have just gone with Jellyfin to start with.

  • D'oh. Yes, it is a stationary recumbent bike.

  • Yeah I am right there with you. I constantly am checking the stopwatch. When I am actively playing a match I dont look. 8 minutes goes by. Really makes the cardio not the focus and by extension I get the workout in without noticing

  • I got a recumbent bike from a sale at a big box store. Set up a Steam Link (yes i know its old as fuck) and a Steam Controller. I play my library of games while I bike. The last few years I play Fall Guys for anywhere from 30-60 minutes at a time.

    Great cardio. I forget I'm even doing it. Usually burn around 300-500 in a session a few times a week. All that said, I still eat like shit and can't lose weight... BUT I am not putting any on. So thats nice I guess.

  • I agree. The unfortunate thing is that many young people online are so vitriolic toward those older than them it is hard to make that connection. Case in point the person above attacking someone for what seemed like no reason.
