Also, don’t greenlight 100 shows if you only plan on giving 5 of them a second season, and you base that decision entirely on algorithms instead of genuine human feedback.
And please, for the love of god, let me look at a movie for longer than 1 second before you start automatically playing it because your almighty algorithm determined that it would force users to pick a movie faster. It’s the most annoying “feature” that makes me inclined to avoid Netflix as much as possible.
What app is that? Are any of them still working?
Nebula.tv has some promise. It’s not free but it’s very cheap and creator-owned. Plus there’s no ads. But it can never be a true replacement for Youtube because it doesn’t allow just anyone to upload there.
IIRC you have to enable it separately, but it’s not very difficult to do. Just google it if you run into trouble
You didn’t even mention QBittorrent’s best feature: it has a search engine that searches across lots of different torrent sites, so you don’t need to check each one!
Yeah this also conveniently happens after they made everyone’s Reddit Gold invalid. Pretty damn shady if you ask me.
Yeah why not just expand the dataset it draws from to be less racially biased?
Ah, right, that would require effort.
I honestly didn’t think this would ever happen! I thought all those MP fans that kept complaining about Portnoy’s absence were just being ridiculous, of course he was never gonna rejoin the band.
Well, I guess hell has frozen over.
Mangini is a beast of a drummer but there was a magic with Portnoy that I felt has been missing on the last few albums, so I’m stoked that he’s back!
There’s nothing like a scalding hot coffee shower in the morning
Something tells me there will be a new prison complex built in the area in the next few years
If you think living somewhere else will make you happier, you should do it as long as it doesn’t screw you over financially. Even if you’re probably not at risk of persecution as a white male, I can fully understand not wanting to live in a christofascist hellscape. If you have friends in a more desirable area I’d consider moving there.
Have you seen how much CEOs get paid?
Corporations can switch to greener alternatives AND pay workers a living wage AND make a profit, without having the consumers pay the price.
All it takes is the willingness of politicians to force them to. Corporations raise prices because they’re allowed to, and they’ll take any excuse they can get to get more money out of people.
Gas prices have skyrocketed. First it was covid’s fault. Then it was the war in Ukraine. All the while gas corporations have been seeing record-breaking profits. It’s all just greed.
Nothing is 100% vegan. Animals have existed on this planet for hundreds of millions of years, and they are a part of its composition. Soil is just fully decomposed plants and animals. No matter how vegan you want to be, you can’t escape eating something that has fed on animal parts directly or indirectly.
You see the same shit on streaming services. “Oh this show has been out for two days and hasn’t reached Game of Thrones level of popularity already? Let’s remove it from existence forever.”
That Walter Mitty scene made me laugh. It was filmed in Seyðisfjörður, which is around 700 km away from Eyjafjallajökull. They had even changed the map shown in the movie, so it was unrecognizable for an Icelander! 😂
Or too early, depending on how you look at it ;)
When it erupts underneath a glacier, it causes huge clouds of ash to form. The volcano you’re talking about (Eyjafjallajökull) is a glacier volcano in the highlands whereas this one is on the Reykjanes peninsula on the west side.
I’m by no means an expert but in Iceland,
eruption under a glacier = ash eruption
eruption not under a glacier = lava flow.
I’m sure it’s more nuanced than that but it seems to be the rule of thumb over here.
Lava eruptions like this tend to be less dangerous than ash eruptions, which can mess up air traffic and the ashfall is bad for the lungs and crops. So I don’t think there’s much cause for concern.
Runk means masturbation in Icelandic so that adds another layer of hilarity to this
