Maybe, but chances are it’ll get taken down in the next few days

Oh dang, that’s $32 AUD! Bit out of my price range!

Have you ever tried listening to hardcore history by Dan Carlin? I find he’s the right level of captivating to keep me interested, but slow enough that I can still drift off to sleep

My suggestion is to spend maybe half an hour in the evening learninga new hobby/skill, then when you’re in bed go over what you learnt in that half hour in your mind to cement it. You’ll find that just running over the knowledge in your mind induces the “counting sheep” effect and will help you drift off to sleep.

If it doesn’t work, then at least you’ll learn a new skill much quicker!

Frugal Usenet works great for me

Yeah same, its been almost 10 years for me. I briefly tried other options like brave, but kept coming back to Firefox

idgi, who is that?

I used i3 for a couple of years, but I missed the ease of having a DE that just recognised USB sticks and external hard drives, and all the other little things that you have to set up manually

Nobody is talking about marxists or leftists here, tankies are a breed of their own

I used wind scribe for a few years for torrenting on my phone andpc and never had any trouble. Once I forgot to turn on the vpn while downloading a movie on my phone at work (using the companywifi 🤦) and got an email from IT saying they’d gotten a warning and not to do it again 🤣😬

They do have a firewall option to prevent scenarios like that

I started using Usenet about a year ago and much prefer it. Once you have you it set up it’s very straight forward to use, and means you don’t have to worry about maintaining your ratio, or making sure your vpn doesn’t drop out, or piratebay going down etc etc

When I discovered soulseek and could stop paying $20-$30 per CD. Incidentally, I bought an iPod round the same time and couldn’t copy my mp3s over, and that’s the last time i ever bought an apple product

Yeah I don’t see the problem here

My laptop is 6 years old and has been running arch Linux with xfce for most of that time. I got tired of maintaining it and changed to an “easy” Linux mint distro. It takes much longer to boot up now and feels generally sluggish in comparison to a minimal arch install. So from experience, in older hardware having a bloated distro can really slow down your system.

Without knowing the real reasons behind it, it’s very difficult to hold an opinion on the board’s decisions
