There’s a ton of garbage everywhere. I hesitate before searching for something on YouTube because the results are usually just a pile of fishy mouthed or obviously AI thumbnails and so many of the videos themselves are just low effort. Don’t get me started on AI voiceovers.
Mormon church seems like a good candidate.
Giving Shakespeare ye olde side eye
I deleted Plex from my barely functional home server.
I’ll give Jellyfin a try. I just want to be able to access my music away from home
The alt-right mediasphere is pushing Tesla sales hard.
It also says “Dark Web.” They might be trying to not tip their hand by mentioning specific sites or someone from Marketing wrote the list.
The Discord-based “support” makes it a “meh.” The main devs alt-right BS makes it a “hard pass.”
Mint. I’ll have to check that out. I have quite a bit of music and I’d love to be able to listen wherever.
I’m going to check out the TRaSH guides. I’m using Linux and I’ve had a very difficult time getting anything set up. Plex keeps dropping my external connection and Jellyfin absolutely wouldn’t see my external drive, even after monkeying with groups and permissions. I don’t doubt that most of my issues are due to my ignorance.
I’ve been downloading more and more FOSS apps either from GitHub or F-Droid. I’ve been trying to avoid anything Google or from the Play Store.
Like others have said, I don’t mind paying a subscription if there’s a service on the backend that I find useful, such as SoundCloud or Burner.
Even then, I’m thinking I might end my SoundCloud subscription. I use it and Spotify to get listening suggestions but I’m hoping to find a better way to find music I might like but don’t know anything about.
So, what’s the stage after “enshitification”? “Enspezed?”
I’ve been using Nicotine+ for SoulSeek and I’ve been able to find just about everything I’ve been looking for.
It has a “Wish List” feature that I’ve used a couple of times.
It’s not as bad as a Cybertruck! We promise!
Yeah. Sometimes my bank account gets sad but I don’t.
Thanks! The next car on the list was a 2004 Honda Civic Si hatchback manual.
I honestly would have been happy with either car. Having so much fun with the Porsche though.
A previous owner mounted one where the cigarette lighter was. I’m going to replace it soon since it doesn’t really fit - I can’t charge my phone in the holder.
Maybe I’ll finally learn FreeCAD and print my own.
I was looking for a car a few months ago and was looking at newer models, used, but mostly less than a decade old. Then I started reading about all the tracking and such.
I gave in to my inner teenager and bought a 2001 Porsche 911.
The entertainment center can connect via Bluetooth but there’s no Android Auto, no navigation. It has Sirius XM but I never had a subscription to it and never will.
I might add a backup camera but that’s it. My phone is more than enough tracking, even with as much of it shut off as possible.
There’ll be a special maintenance package that will be available. Then it’ll be ads for new Stellantis vehicles.
Just when you thought Pennsylvania couldn’t suck any more. If it wasn’t for the Eagles, there’d be no good news from PA.
She was also just on the cover of People or some other such supermarket cash register rag.
