  • You say that, but that’s what Apple has been doing with Liquid Glass, and tons of people hate it, myself included

  • When has the law ever stopped these shit stains?

    Then, I haven’t missed it! I could binge all the movies in one night, I mean, of course I can, I don’t work tomorrow.

  • Looks like this has been picking up a lot of steam, no pun intended. Since this was posted yesterday I’ve seen it trending on Mastodon and now it’s being covered by GamingOnLinux.

    Seems like using Claude AI to code is counter to his previous viewpoint. Not that people’s opinions can’t change.

    "The community has a tendency to push for the adoption of newer technologies while I have a tendency to hold back a bit before we adopt anything new. Some people use lutris on quite outdated systems and we try not breaking anything until a distribution gets really old. Finding the right balance is quite an art but the community helps in knowing what is needed and which systems can be dropped.”

  • Oh snap! Didn’t know this existed. Definitely want to try this out when I get back to my PC

  • Thought someone actually said something to him, but no it’s just an article about people’s reactions online, and on a shit website at that.

  • IIRC there’s some cheaper ones out there around $5, but it’s been a long time since I’ve shopped for a Usenet service. The way I look at it is I’m not having to pay for Netflix, Prime, Peacock, Disney +, HBO, HiDive, etc. just to watch the shows and movies I want. I do pay for Crunchyroll, but that’s mostly because I don’t want to pull and store long shows like One Piece, but that might change with their recent price increase.

  • Wow, I’ve never seen this before. Thanks for sharing!

  • Things you need:

    A Usenet provider such as EasyNews or Astraweb. Usenet services host the content. Be aware that some services like GigaNews just rehost from the same pool of servers as a lot of others, also can be a tad scummy. There’s a lot to look into here for features like connection limits, retention, and download speed. You can also purchase “block accounts” which let you buy blocks of data to use on demand with no expiration. Astraweb is great for this as a secondary source since they have their own servers and can host different content than other hosts. Look for promo codes online when signing up for one as you can usually get solid rates via referrals for like $7-$15 a month. Block accounts can run like $25 for 100GB of download. You can see which servers overlap here at this link courtesy of @Darkassassin07@lemmy.ca

    A Usenet downloading client like SabNZBD for downloading NZB files (pronounced: newzbins)

    An Indexer, such as Drunken Slug, NZBGeek, NZB Finder, or OMGWTFNZBs. Indexers help you find the content you’re looking for in the giant pool of hosted content on Usenet services. Usually good to have more than 1 indexer, even if using a free account on another. Usually run about $15 a year.

    Usenet can be tied into Arrs programs like Sonarr and Radarr for automated downloading which makes things a lot easier especially when you set up your library correctly. See Trash Guides for help with this.

    Personally I recommend running this all through Docker, but it’s not necessary.

    Also even with Usenet, I’d still recommend a VPN. Can never be too safe.

    Edit: added link from @Darkassassin07@lemmy.ca’s comment below

  • Wild.

    Side note that this made me think of, but one of my favorite, uhh viruses?, from the Netscape internet era was cupholder.exe, which when ran popped out your CD drive.

    Crazy to think about how people used to just download sketchy .exe files like that or LiNkIng-PaRk-nUmB.exe or similar on Limewire.

  • Should probably change it to “How did computer viruses spread before the internet”

    But I don’t know if they actually would have been a thing outside of government type shit.

    Would have had to be through direct injection requiring physical access to the machine using methods like breaking and entering, tailgating, insider access, or via social engineering using “dropped” media containing the virus.

    This is speculation tho. I’m sure there’s articles on it somewhere.
