Cycling kickstarters have an awful track record. Make sure it’s make by an actual cycling company and even then it’s better to do a late pledge after some fulfillment and reviews.

It just sucks because he’s getting a relatively “white glove” treatment compared to the usual drug war policies. Criminalization was always wrong and Joe Biden caused that in his actions in the Senate. If Joe Biden can learn empathy for drug addicts through his son I hope something good comes of it.
Everything search app is easily my most used on my Windows PC. Instant, as-you-type file search by name with detail sorting and wildcard support. I set a keyboard shortcut as well. It puts Explorer search to shame. As good as Spotlight, which I was missing from when I had a Mac in 2008.
LaunchyQT - modern fork of Launchy that actually gets development. App launcher, dead simple.
FanControl - Fan curve software with all the features I want including hybrid temp sources, sensible automatic settings, visual graphs with an intuitive interface.
AutoHotKey - Hotkey scripting language that I can use even as someone who barely codes.
Transcribe! - Not open-source but it’s a reasonably priced audio and video slow down app for transcribing.
Yeah, it makes very little sense to “play the long game” on a private site to spread malware to a small user base when you could just go to any public tracker where it’s the Wild West. Could someone do it? Sure, but it’s really not realistic to expect that regularly.
Some of them have freeleech on some torrents. TorrentLeech has freeleech on every torrent over a certain size (I think 15 GB) + Box Sets of any size and then you just have to seed for 10 days total, then you can stop without penalty to your ratio. I have never paid money to TorrentLeech for access. I suppose this would change quickly if I was downloading individual episodes of a new show or 10 to 14.99 GB torrents, but that’s not my usual usage pattern.
I will say that some of your criticism is correct. I will often avoid using the private tracker to avoid having to seed for 10 days. I can’t get to a 1.0 ratio on private trackers, but I can on public ones, but freeleech seeding adds to my ratio with no penalty for downloading. The zero-sum vibe is both real and off-putting.
I currently have a ratio surplus of 34 GB, and it started me with 25 GB. The benefit is if I really want something, it’s easy to access
Yes, instances are quaking in their boots that lemmy world might *checks notes* block two specific communities. Chilling to would-be pirates everywhere.
The lemmy code is free as in beer and free as in freedom, so you don’t need to give any info to use it yourself.
The other big news is they’re starting to use yuan to trade instead of USD.
I watched it and it’s intriguing. The characters have similar roles to the real show and speak in similar ways. The problem is that the “writer” has no point of view and therefore the satire was completely missing.
Wish I could, my phone manufacturer has the bootloader locked down and I will be using this one until it stops getting security updates. I’ll probably switch to Zenfone 8/9 or a mid budget moto eventually as those tend to be unlockable.
Way overdue feature. I agree, perfect for locating bundle pieces as those quickly fall off the recent list.
This is almost beyond belief… They spent so much time pulling teeth on the Ukraine question that they ran out of time for negotiating a trade deal. In a meeting of nations that happens only once or twice per decade.
It’s about 10% more efficient than jpeg compression.
Yes, I meant individual posters making the adjustment.
I’m more certain about the first search part.
Choosing a more compressed file format like jpeg/webp is probably also helpful. Converting that png online or in gimp can reduce the file size by up to 75%.
It took me a distressing amount of time to locate a swimwear brand that even makes a two to four inch inseam swim trunk. It’s Sauvage Swimwear, btw. Pricy, but if you’re like me and buy one pair every decade it’s worth it.
People look down on dress sneakers (dress shoes that have comfortable soles) but as long as they are fully brown or black, 90% of people would never notice them.
The first time anybody on your instance searches for a separate lemmy community, your Lemmy instance reaches out for the other community and learns that it exists. After that point it shows up in searches and after one person subscribes it appears in your instance’s All feed.
I can only imagine what it’s like to be on meds that affect your quality of life negatively both on and off the medication. I hope you consult your doctor before making drastic changes. Perhaps there is a dosage which provides a middle ground.
Losing brain matter sounds scary at face value, but perhaps a doctor could explain whether it applies in every case and whether it is actually a big deal.
Full disclosure, I lost a cousin to paranoid schizophrenia after he moved away and got off his meds, so I am biased.
Smosh humor.
