I'm not a fan of torrenting and haven't bothered with them in like, geez, I think 16 some odd years. I like DDLs and I like more convenient options. I don't want to bother being an easy target, I don't want to mess with protocols, timing and any other hassle just to torrent. I am done with those days.

I technically have adopted a son. This son, who I once knew as a female. But, it is without question, that I see them as, know them as and treat them as the kind of son equally as I would if they were my daughter. It helps to relate with them, when you're one of them too. So, it was all easy.

I don't know, sounds like all of that is subjective to me.

If this was applied to YouTube, then yes, quite noticeable.

How does one use this yt-dlp I've heard about?

Because my assumption immediately was it was for YouTube, but I quickly searched it to find it can support 'thousands' of websites.

 

I use Librewolf, alternatively, Floorp, so I wonder if there's anything I can use on them to download videos with.

And I plan on using them on sites similar to hianime, but I'm tired of like, finding one stream and it dies, then having to go find another .etc

I want to save my favorite series so I can have something to watch reliably than something that is operating on uncertainty.

Any ideas?

tidals starting to heavily crack down on monochrome.

And yet, people keep fucking recommending to use Tidal as a Spotify alternative. Fuck that app. 30 second songs until you pay can go to hell.

 

For me, I never thought I'd see my 20s. Because growing up, I was a very unhealthy overweight kid and teenager growing up. I had heard of people not making it to their young adult lives because of being plagued by numerous health issues, being overweight one of them.

RIP Kazuhisa Hashimoto, who programmed this code and has been gone from us 5 years ago.

Only for them to lose.

I swear that they do it on purpose, but every time I leave from work in the morning, this damn song plays.

 

Whether it's radio or retail that are played by the most inane and vanilla of DJs possible with no taste or other means.

The Cure - Lovesong. Thanks to my store's shitty radio selection, this song plays like 2 - 3 times at a given night. Can't stand it.

Pearl Jam - Do The Evolution. The only time I enjoy this song, is if I'm watching the music video anymore and quite frankly, I do recommend watching the music video to this song. But, it's overplayed to me now.

Huey Lewis and the News - Power of Love. This really does break my heart, because I love Huey Lewis and the News, but it's steadily getting up there to being so overplayed that I can't stand it.

AC/DC - Back in Black. Fuck, every god damn commercial, movie trailer and what have you, has killed this song for me.

Any Queen Song. Bohemian Rhapsody, We Will Rock You, you name it, overplayed to where I can't be bothered to listen to them on my own to enjoy.

Phil Collins - In the Air Tonight. I tie this song to the Hangover, in the scene where the guys meet Mike Tyson and he stops them to listen to his favorite part. But, the more times I've heard this song, the enjoyment I've had is out the window.

The Offspring - Come Out and Play. Loved it a lot back then, it was a symbol of the 90s, now its a symbol of being overplayed.

Temple of the Dog - Hunger Strike. Of all of the songs and bands, they have to abuse this one. It's also fucking ironic that they play this song, considering its meaning. I'm waiting to hear something from Rage Against the Machine or KMFDM just to stir the irony pot some more that some corporate entity is blasting songs from bands that are against them.

Penny Arcade was popular enough that Tyco from the comic got a cameo as a character in one of the Poker Night at the Inventory games, the first one. I never really liked him and found everything he says cringe-inducing.

Yes, you'd be right and I don't like anyone who boasts, gloats and brags about their pirating activities. We're all pirating for a varied assortment of reasons, personal or spite or logical, but it comes down to the fact that we're getting stuff for free and saves us tons of money. So, we all should universally be in glee about that alone. However, being louder about it, increases risks and chances of our sources being taken from us before we know it.

A lot of great sources of pirating has been taken from us over the past 5 years, sources we'd never thought would be taken down (before anyone says The Pirate Bay, that site has long lost its purpose, its symbolism now.) Sometimes it isn't because people were loud, it is just because of the network of government bodies being in bed with entertainment industries and law enforcement that are really throwing everything at the wall to take down piracy in general.

But sometimes, they wouldn't have targeted anything if the loud-mouths would shut up.

Maybe you shouldn't have welcomed Draft Kings with open arms?

Sports has suffered because of gambling droolers for too long.
