Lovely day today. Especially compared with last weekend.
Windows 10 on my main computer, Mint on my HTPC which is getting a lot more use.
We’re in the season of tax returns and now is a great time for scammers to strike. Here’s some things to keep an eye out for but it’s not exclusive.
- unless you have engaged an accountant, no one will contact you about your tax except myGov
- if myGov contact you, they won’t tell you to do anything except check your inbox (exception is security codes but you will have initiated the reason for this)
- if myGov contact you, DO NOT CLICK ANY LINKS. They don’t send them.
- if you get a message from mygov and it shows a phone number, it’s a scam. MyGov messages will only say they are from myGov. This isn’t a guarantee that it’s legit, but the lack of it means scam.
Please add more tips below to ensure people don’t get caught out.

You could set it up as a media centre if you don’t have a sufficient option already.
I’ve used mine for emulators, media server, and file server over time. I’ve only got a 3b though so a bit limited compared to the 4s.
I mean, the bot was distracted fighting the good fight against the Metabots and their threads.
WFH is one of the contributing factors to the current housing crisis as people sought more space to be able to do it.
Not saying your idea is wrong, but there is an effect.
We have a housing crisis but sure lead with how it will affect a handful of people who like having a beer in the sun.
Server got updated around that time so maybe that’s related.
You got a hose?
Spotify web player with a good ad block at least gets around the “supporting them” bit.
Oh this looks amazing. Thank you!
An Evangelion AMV to I’m Not Okay by My Chemical Romance. I even remember the user but I haven’t been able to find since it got wiped off YouTube over 10 years ago.
Theme Hospital I still go back to on occasion. I’ve seen Two Point but it’s not the same.
I don’t drink enough to warrant it. The odd one here and there if I go out for dinner. Definitely think more people need to think about their relationship with alcohol though.
If you’re using a 3b just be aware that hevc and x265 files won’t play properly.
This is pretty piss poor from the country who made an international incident over a few bouncers. Bodyline was also within the rules. Doesn’t mean it was within the spirit of the game.
Could be a case of “If it ain’t broke don’t fix it”
I’ve got a website based on Joomla that is over 10 years old. I know Wordpress is a better option and have been using it for other stuff for the last 5 years.
Why isn’t the first one migrated over to Wordpress? Because I can’t be fucked, it still works.
Obviously the answers here might be a bit lower than other places…
I haven’t really worried about cracked games since I started using Steam years ago but I had a bit of a revelation today regarding my willingness to play something and my willingness to pay for it. So my question is are there any risks to the standing of a Steam account if you play cracked games on the same system?

What are your thoughts on this? Seems to me a long overdue discussion for the government to have. The ads are out of control.
Has anyone noticed more of the darker bin chickens getting around since it’s gotten colder? Straw-necked Ibis I believe. I saw one months ago and now they seem to be integrated with the stock standard bin chickens most places I go.
Anyone here got any recommendations for paid cloud storage options? Given where we are I’m looking for piracy friendly options.
Finding information and torrent sites is pretty easy and well covered in the mega thread.
Is there any chance Usenet sources and info can be added?
That’s my general request but my personal request; are there any Usenet sources that are recommended for general, music, anime and/or pro wrestling content? I’m familiar with XWT and Nyaa.si on the torrent side.
With new streamers constantly launching and lockdowns changing watching patterns, film and TV piracy is mounting a comeback. Can anything be done?

Slightly older (2021) article I found while searching for this place. It pretty much says what we’ve all been saying.
