What the hell ever happened with ReiserFS (or whatever it was called?) It was supposed to be used in Vista, and then just never was.

Thank you. I was worried that I was shouting at brick walls for a moment.

I also use Stremio with Real-Debrid. The girlfriend knows nothing about piracy, but Stremio is so easy and convenient that my mother could use it. She uses it almost daily to watch anime that she can't find on Crunchyroll.

People are suspicious cause it does sound too good to be true; I get it. Being able to stream any 4K HDR video you want without buffering seems unbelievable. It's a little frustrating cause I always seem to get downvoted by a bunch of skeptics every time I bring up Debrid. Maybe cause I come on too hard and sound like an advertisement, but I can't help but be fanatical about it. It's just so much better than any other method for obtaining free content!

That sucks. Happens when there's no competition in your area. Verizon is $60 for 1Gbps here, no data cap, because they have to compete with Cox. Greedy bastards.

Alright fine. I hope I managed to convince at least one other person, though...

Well I'm only talking about political news videos, here. Sorry for not clarifying.

Yes but steaming veggies is just doing a disservice to them. You do you, but personally I'd never do that ever for any reason.

You might not have to. Look into fixed 5G internet. So long as you have a view of a tower (which you should in a major metropolitan city; I'm in suburbia and still have 3 within view), speeds and latency are as good as a wired connection. I'd look into it.

Even if that were true, Debrid services are still faster. Torrents can take a minute or two even get started in torrent clients. Debrid is instant, even if the torrent doesn't have a lot of seeds. Think of it like a shared seedbox, where anyone can add to/download from it. And like I said, it's cheaper than a VPN.

But whatever, do what you want. If you don't want to try it, that's on you. I literally offered to pay for it, and you still won't give it a shot it. I give up.

(Some people, man.)

Bro, you have no idea what you're turning down. I get it; on the surface it does seem sus. I was suspicious too until I tried it. Debrid is an absolute game-changer. It's kind of like a seed box, except it's more like a collective seed box. So if at least one user added the torrent before, you can download it immediately.

I don't know what you mean by "lack of detail / pricing" on their website. The pricing is laid out very clearly, and there's not a lot of explanation cause it's really that simple. (EDIT: Looks like you need to make a free account to see the pricing; I'll admit that's stupid). So here's a screenshot:

You don't have to use Real-Debrid. I just mentioned them cause they're the most popular. Google "Debrid services" for alternatives. There's also a megathread on reddit.

I get the "never pay for piracy" argument, but with torrents you need a VPN to keep your ISP off your ass, so at the end of the day, you're paying for piracy regardless. Debrid is cheaper than a VPN.

It bothers me so much that you're not willing to give it a shot, that I made a video to show you how fast, easy, and convenient it is. And here's another video of me streaming a movie almost instantly, in case you still think I'm full of shit. (Videos might still be processing when you see this, so try again later if the quality is too low for you to see what I'm doing.)

Wow I had that in 2008. Damn that sucks. You can't even stream 4K HDR video.

You pay $4 more than I do for the same thing (with no bandwidth cap). If you're not out in the sticks, internet is fine here.

In rural areas, yes.

In cities, Gigabit internet is abundant and only mildly expensive. Here in Phoenix I pay $60/mo for 1 Gbps down, 50 Mbps up with no bandwidth cap from Verizon. Not the best but far from "awful".

Who needs reddit? Now I go to Imgur for memes, and Lemmy for news.

The only thing reddit is still better at is finding an answer to a very specific question (adding site:reddit.com to your Google searches works wonders), but that'll improve with time as more and more people get tired of Spez's bullshit and migrate here. Can't wait to see the death of reddit. Was a member since the beginning and it's sad to see it go the way of Digg.

Bullshit. Washing without soap does nothing but spread germs around.

Quit making up excuses cause you're lazy, and wash your hands with god damn soap.

I'm blocking you now cause I don't want to see any more comments/posts from your nasty-ass in the future.

I mean you kinda implied it by saying it's one of the smallest engines for the truck. Sorry for jumping to conclusions.

Next you're going to tell me that you wash your hands without soap too.

No, I just rinse my ass with the showerhead.

Go for a drive with the GF. Or if I'm staying home: Drink. Smoke/vape/dab weed. Play video games. Hop on the turntables and do a mix for the listeners (I volunteer for an internet radio station in my spare time.)

I've been playing that new Ratchet & Clank on PC, and man is it such a fun game to play while high. Beautiful, modern visuals. Very colorful, lots of pretty particle effects. Characters so detailed and animation so fluid that it feels like you're playing a Pixar movie. Easy to pick up and play so it's not overwhelming when you're stoned.

Definitely a must-play if you partake and so-happen to have a decent gaming PC. If not, then I'm sure the PS5 version is decent too.

Next time try grilling or pan frying the vegetables for more flavor; don't steam them. Use olive oil like the other person said.

Also you didn't heat the stove/grill enough for a proper sear. Next time use more heat. Get it as hot as you can. The outside should be more brown and crispy than that, while still being rare to medium-rare on the inside. Same thing applies to steak. More temperature, less time.

EDIT: One thing I like to do is hit the meat with a blowtorch first, and then stick it on the grill/stove. It definitely helps get the browning process (i.e. Maillard reactions) going.
