What if your seedbox is located in the Netherlands? (Mine is…)

Then why not say every rouble made in Russia will go to humanitarian aid? I’ll tell you why; it’s because they are still making money by being in Russia. It’s corporate greed through and through. These fuckers make no sacrifice until it hurts their bottom line.
Been using Plex for years as bought the Plex lifetime deal when it was on offer many many moons ago. Is jellyfin any better? (My biggest concern with Plex is that they have a list of all my content I believe so not happy about that).
Should add use a nvidia shield with an external hard drive with all the content on it and stream to other android devices (fire sticks).

Has a mini hurricane in my old town in Southern Germany yesterday. Blew the roof off a supermarket. (Was a Netto so only 52€ of damage to stock was done)
Why does it look like he is in some shady strip club from the 80’s?
A cheap usb microscope. I wanted to get into macro photography but my eyesight is pretty terrible even with glasses and struggle to see fine details so struggled to set the mounts up. (Small insects, grains, etc)
Saw a usb microscope for 20€ on Amazon and thought for 20 euro it’s going to be terrible but worth a punt. It’s bloody brilliant. Have used it for a whole variety of things from threading needles to soldering work, repairing stuff with glue and tightening up glasses as well as the macro stuff. Coupled with some ‘helping hands’ it’s a permanent fixture on the pc desk.
Sure and I agree with you. He has been very open with his struggles with depression over decades. They are reporting he is receiving medical care and will be for the foreseeable future; and given how recent this is likely to have been triggered by him finding out it was going to be reported last Thursday.
Of course there is also the point that this has been blown out of all proportions. The police don’t seem to be pursuing a case and now some news outlets are saying he broke lockdown rules. Well frankly a huge number of people broke lockdown rules…
I do feel sorry for him and hope he gets the care that he needs as the press are going to be like a dog with a bone; especially the murdoch owned tabloids who want the bbc shut down.
They are pushing he has ‘mental health issues’ which doesn’t sit right. Looks like they are trying to say his behaviour was due to these issues. It’s not fair to others suffering with their mental health….
More like 6.5 lives for each year as he will likely only serve 6 years…
As I understand it 16 is the legal age of consent. So a pensioner can have sex with a 16 year old and no legal laws are broken. (Unless the elder is a teacher, sports tutor, medical professional of the tenager). What is illegal though is to ask for or send explicit photographs of someone before the age of 18…
Also the Sun newspaper is a hypocritical shit rag. They were printing topless photos of Sam Fox on their daily page 3 ‘feature’ when she was 16……
Here’s what I make of it… It’s bullshit…
Let me first clarify that I do believe climate change is real and something that we need urgent action on.
However in my 50+ years on this planet there has always been something to keep the people in fear and usually with cataclysmic consequences. In my lifetime the world or humanity should have ended already due to nuclear war, nuclear energy, peak oil, famine, over population, super weather (floods/hurricanes), acid rain, ozone layer depletion, y2k, ocean death, ice age (predicted in the 70’s), Yellowstone park eruptions, asteroid impacts, etc
The problem is when you have lived your entire life hearing that the end of humanity is near, you become desensitised to it and so when we do face a global catastrophe we are so apathetic.
Found this article interesting on the subject:

This happened to me on honeymoon… Was on the Isle of Skye and wife and I decided to go for a hike up a hill to see the sunset. About half way up a swarm of flies were buzzing round something deceased. There were quite a few so I was swatting them away from around my head with my hands. Got a perfect shot on one; hitting it for 6 straight into my ear canal. That’s when the fun really started… Oh my fucking god the sound!! The loudest sound you can imagine; from inside your head. I honestly can’t do the horror justice.
I went into full on panic mode with my wife laughing her arse off asking what the fuck was going on. In between my cries and slapping the side of my head I managed to explain as we descended down the hill at break neck speed. The fly, during this time was very much having its own panic attack vibrating it’s body through my ear canal sending not only sounds but pain like a nail being hammered on the eardrum.
Reached the bottom of the hill and the fly was running out of steam. It would frantically buzz for a few seconds then go silent to return a second or so later. The doctor was called who said to take a look in the ear but the fly couldn’t be seen. Then advised to pour water into the ear to float the fly out.
As my ear and side of head resembled a fully ripe tomato due to the slapping my lovely wife got some ice cubes in a glass and filled it with water with the idea of reducing the swelling. Into my ear this frigid mixture went. The fly calmed down and was now going silent for 5 to 6 seconds between its spasms. About 3 minutes later I started to feel dreadful; the worst nausea I have ever had the misfortune to feel with the pain and buzzing continuing. The world was spinning; I was dying… The doctor called back to see how we were getting on and my lady explained the situation and how I was basically uncommunicative, white as a sheet and retching. The doctor then announced that he hoped the water had been at body temperature as the inner ear is very sensitive to temperature changes and even a couple of degrees difference will cause dizziness. Guys I was Ill for about 3 hours. Vr motion sickness had nothing on how terrible I felt. The fly had not surfaced but was eventually forever silent.
After a sleepless night with visions of a rotting fly corpse invading my brain we went to the one hospital on the island to have my ears syringed. The nurse pulled and prodded but couldn’t see the fly; I really had smacked it for six right down. She then popped a camera in and audibly gasped seeing a magnified blue bottle fly face staring back at her in its death mask.
It took 10 minutes of syringing, but it eventually came out. It was a full sized fat twatting arsed bluebottle; the size of a small bee.
Would not recommend!!! Spinal surgery is less traumatic.
On a similar note how safe is it to use private torrents such as IPTorrents? They obs keep a log of users and upload/download stats and probably the torrents downloaded and ip addresses. Surely rights holders would be better off going after this data no?
It’s the same with steam games and other online stores. You are granted a licence to use the software; not to own it.
Then just subscribe for that month and then cancel. We switch around from all of them; one month netflix, next month HBO, apple the next, etc… Don’t understand why people keep the subscriptions when they dont use the service…
