The man-child billionaire says he is not for censorship, while using the judicial system to censor.

Not blaming them, but at the same time, they are being forced to comply and my pirating ass is having no part of it.

Thanks. I switched to dns.watch after reading this.

Who turned up Google’s nazi dial?

For the record, I do believe in extraterrestrial life forms and I do believe they are here and have been for some time. However, this whole dog and pony show and congressional committee is another CIA/Intelligence Community front to control the narrative, think project blue book 2.0. You have a couple of high ranking intelligent agency officials sitting behind the whistle-blowers with big smiles on. James Clapper is one, ex Obama guy and ex DNI (although they are never retired.) Big on the UFO disinformation front. You have the main whistle-blower telling you all this information, but can’t give out any data to back up his story…you just have to believe him (and the CIA.) You have to dig deep in the UFO information/disinformation happenings to understand what is going down here.

The Batman scenes were the ONLY thing worth watching in this movie. I will watch it again and fast forward to them only. I will be happy to never see Ezra Miller in a movie ever again. He made my head hurt.

I would add the title of 'Most pirated series, but do to the utterly shit ending, also the most regrettable."

I have been using VLC on linux and android since forever, but recently on my new Amazon Firestick 4k Max, VLC was having issues playing h.265 HEVC movies. So, someone recommended Nova Player, and it played them beautifully. Nice player, I may switch all my devices to Nova.

You are not alone. Many love its ‘restrained’ workflow, and DEs are subjective. It sounds like you are ready to move to KDE. KDE has a ‘Overview’ that mimics Gnome’s, so best of both worlds and the taskbar in KDE is actually functional. Don’t waste anymore time, make the switch to day. Operators are standing by. 🤣

KDE user so for my personal files I backup with both Kups and Bups (install both) and you get the choice of cloning type or only changed files with going back in time choices. Integrates into KDE taskbar/system settings.

For redundancy, I back up my main sync folder on the desktop to my laptop using Syncthing over my WiFi/network.

OMG, its like being at the point in your RPG game where you are tasked to retrieve the DRM-free game, but you know the price from the crazed troll is going to be your rogue’s head and all your gear, else more violence.

I am using liftoff on arch linux desktop and I could not find anything that allowed me to logoff. I had to go into the hidden files and find the configuration folder and delete it, essentially also wiping out all my preferences.

Firstly, see if there is a gog version. GOG versions are always easier to install imo. I use 1337x to find the games, or any other seeder will do. Download your pirated game and either use wine locally, or for an easier way, I love LUTRIS! Search in Lutris to see if there is a ‘runner’ for your game. This makes installing easier because it runs a script that installs all the windows components need for that game. It it usually ask for your pirated game’s .exe file at some point to install. Done, ready to go.

If you can’t find a runner for your game, I usually find a runner with a more recent, heavy 3D gammer game and use it instead. For whatever reason, Star Wars Jedi Fallen runner seems to work with a lot of games.

Also, make sure you are using Wine-staging and all the i386 files. Here is a guide to help you install.

Not your fault and sorry if it came across as accusatory. Oddly it did play on my computer using VLC. I just wonder if they encoded a bit differently than RARBG?

No. I had no issues with RARBG x265 releases. This is a first.

Setup the big screen for viewing tonight and it was a bust. This version would not play on either my projector or the Firestick using VLC player, normally they play all my x265 HEVC, and more. It was a bust. I will have to find another rip. I am not sold on INFINITY, unfortunately.

Yes, stick with Arch. Arch is not the issue if installed without the holding chambers Manjaro puts in place. Arch has a good installer on its own, but if you need a bit more, distros like EndeavourOS, Calam-Arch-Installer, ALCI (Arch Linux Calamares Installer,) and even Garuda are all fine options.

‘Classic canonical corporate move’…there I fixed it for you.

Red Hat is a corporation, putting dollars first. Not to mention Fedora is now starting to 'trample on user’s privacy with telemetry integration.’

Some are making the case that Fedora’s new telemetry integration isn’t like the bad telemetry like Google and others, it is ‘anonymised.’ Every corporation says this before they remove the username from the data collected and keep the unique user id. I don’t trust Red Hat…and now with this latest reveal, Fedora either. And privacy is all about trust.

Ktorrent…on arch linux, btw. Support the KDE desktop! (echoes)

This…all of it. I started with Arch using Manjaro, like so many do. There was a mass exodus that exploded, and the worst lot remained on the dev team. Beyond that, as you stated, they convice their users that holding back packages is for their benefit, when in reality, your system becomes unstable at times as a result, especially becoming out of sync with AUR. It is still one of the most popular Arch distros, and …well…I feel sorry for their uninformed users who believe it is a stable choice.
