Well, I grew up with knowledge of cable pirating in apartment complexes, VHS recording of retals to share or rewatch or watch later, and tape and CD sharing and mixing…

So as far as Im aware pirating was always a easy, viable, and economically savvy choice.

I did explore Netflix for a brief time 15 years ago, but the quality of their service degraded heavily, and I still pirated alongside my Netflix membership, as their content was always limited. And I shared my member ship with others, then later occasionally used a membership that was shared with me, until Netflix broke that system.

Private DNS service.

Ya know, some people actually only get on social media for curated news, to have actual conversations with other humans, or to share or seek advice about specific topics.

I spend most my time in tech, old home remodel, and local/hometown forums.

Well, I originally saw both Blair Witch and H20 played from really dark and messy VHS copies of theater recordings… And man, let me tell ya, they were both way better as low quality cams that HD movies!

I intentionally watch bad Horror as cams now, when I can, even decades later… It really adds to the experience!

SOs HP laptop borked Win11pro OS, wouldn’t load or recover. Tried reinstalling clean but Win11 installer can’t see SSD. Driver loading during install results in install crashing error.

Linux, here we come.

Why do they last more than a year?

Why do they exist at all?

Whatever man.

I change up my writing style pretty much constantly.

And I switch between muliple accounts on several services, each representing a different fictional character.

And I use a VPN.

Can not both be true?

I only pee in other people’s showers.

Shouldn’t ‘tell them off’ at all either.

Teach to the problem. Or moderate it.

Allow the person to continue coexisting.

If you want to invite them to reexamine their behavior… Actually do that, not the other more aggressive, offensive, and immature thing… Then play it off as something more.

‘fuck you!’

‘fuck me?’

‘no, no, that’s not what I meant!’

Just say what you actually meant!

It’s funny watching this argument.

I’m from a very hippy community.

I’m a collectivist.

I’m extremely far left & progressive.

I’m wholly anti-fascist.

I’m also 100% in agreement with you regarding including differing opinions regardless of how extreme.

Inclusivity only brodens the divide and limits opportunities for people who harbor extremist views to be influenced toward developing more balanced, functional, and beneficial perspectives.

Moderation can be used to soften their influences in our commuty while including them allows our community to influence them.

‘You people’ is typically defined by the attached action. ‘You people’ are the people who actually do that thing, whatever it is.

If you don’t do it, ‘you people’ is not you.

If you do do it, ‘you people’ is you.

The point is not about ‘who’, it’s an oppositional statement about the ‘what’, the action, and implies it’s bad, or more importantly that the speaker doesn’t approve.

Like: ‘You people, always with the child raping.’

If you don’t rape children, ‘you people’ isn’t you.

But also, the speaker is implying that child raping is bad, or something they don’t approve of, and something they don’t do.

Then you rule them out on those basis, not their general ‘right wing’ classification.

Include everyone, but exclude specific content.

The ‘go away’ or ‘go back’ BS is exclusive, not inclusive, and should be moderated similarly to bigotry.

Seems aight, I’m fine with FF ATM though.

I do keep alternates around for rare issues, so when helium is out of beta if it ever is, I may install it.

I’ve seen warnings like that when a sites certs expire. Well maintained sites don’t usually let that happen, but I’ve seen it plenty for torrent sites. It’s usually fixed in a few hours or a day.

Like others said, it could also be the ISP, so you can try a VPN, even a free one would probably do, if that was the issue.

You can also try resetting cached data for that site specifically. How to do that is different per browser, search online for more info specific to your browser.

A non-profit community service.

We need an international digital media co-op library.

Anyone can upload/donate their digitally owned content and share ownership with the community… Or people can pool funds with the community and it can buy digital content as a non-profit co-op with shared ownership and access. Then use private torrents to decentralize data hosting and improve streaming to members.

Imagine Netflix as a non-profit digital library.

Movies, TV shows, eBooks, magazines, and music.

Maybe Cuba would be willing to host it’s main office?

Technically you’re posting to social media right here, but I think we all got what you meant.
