  • I was just like you for the first 30 years of my life, and then I realized that all I gotta do is wet two paper towels, put soap on one of them, and use them to clean the seat before I sit down. That small realization completely changed my life for the better, and now I no longer have to wait until I get home to poop.

    (That said, 30 years of holding in your shit has consequences. It takes me from 20 minutes up to an hour to poop before I can get it all out. Needless to say, this had caused issues for me in the workplace. Yes I’ve already started adding fiber to my diet. And before you ask: no I don’t flush the towels. I toss them in the trash can then head back to the stall to do my business.)




  • That’s fair, can’t really argue with the sharing is caring argument. But to be even more fair, I don’t feel like cached torrents (which is what Nuvio uses) harm anything, either, since all it takes is one person to grab the file, and then everyone using the same seedbox/debrid service can download/stream it directly at their internet’s maximum download speed.

    And to be even more more fair, you can always pair Usenet with Nuvio instead, completely taking seeding out of the picture.

    (BTW sorry for coming in hot earlier, I tend to get irritated easily for no one’s fault but my own. My dopamine receptors don’t function very well…)


  • Yes, it’s option 3. Why are you so “horrified” by this? Does the concept of people watching YouTube/Freetube/Piped horrify you too?

    Look, this isn’t music we’re talking about; when it comes to movies and TV, I see no point in building a personal library, just how I see no point in downloading YouTube videos. I have my favorites that I’ll re-watch once in a blue moon, yes, but generally once I’m done with a movie/episode, I’m done with it for good. Therefore I see no point in having a movie/TV collection wasting valuable hard drive space.

    Before I discovered Stremio/Nuvio, my workflow was like this:
    Boot up PC > fire UP VPN and open Firefox > Navigate to 1337X > search for something to watch (assuming that I already know what I want to watch) > click magnet link and wait for seeds > transfer file to Jellyfin library > boot up TV > open Jellyfin and watch > delete file

    After switching, my workflow is now this:
    Boot up TV > Open Nuvio > Browse for movie/show > Watch

    I hope I explained it well enough by now. Do you understand the difference now? One of these options requires way more work than the other. Nuvio works exactly like Netflix. It even recommends you content based on your viewing history. No personal library required.

    Seriously, fuck sports so much. Big waste of money and encourages toxic tribalism mentality. I’ll never understand the appeal.

    I mean why watch someone else compete when you can just play the game yourself and have a lot more fun doing so?

    (Everything I said applies to eSports as well.)
