On a serious note, I sometimes see low-end Win7 laptops for the price of just taking them away, them strugling with streaming lowres video on the web. What kind of modern mainstream Linux distro would make it bearable to browse forums and print text with?

What I’ve meant is going for donation email scam is laughable while being the pres and having no legal boundaries on real, massive corruption schemes. It is not uncaracteristic of him and his people, but it’s the billionaire’s version of ordering a fake coin trinket to never return the shop cart. I want to see it as a measurement to what these guys are, with their frame of thinking still being that small these petty little frauds are their character limit.

Its literally him extorting money paid to him as a private citizen using his role as president to threaten people.

That’s criminally unserious.

You aren’t my pal, Pamela. Wtf she is called Pam, it’s degrading and also makes us treat her actions less serious than they are.

She’s got conflicted between releasing pedo files and releasing pedophiles. What a struggle.

Hey, doctor Tal_alcaran! I came to say your theory is void now.

That’s not directed at you, but RAR archives are so inconvinient to deal with I’m surprised to even see one in the wild. ZIPs may be created and opened by most file managers nowadays, and it’s not so much to compress files with modern bandwidht, but to collect multiple files as one package. The RAR formar times are seemingly almost over.

Can’t dismiss the vibes that it’s like parents taking their favorite children to Disneyland for acing homework, an entertaining and educational trip to the land origin of fascism.

Such a shame that athletes who never planned for that can get booed for being from the US, but if nothing else, Olympics is one of the best places and times to find a better team and country.

I’ve done that for export to portable devices and for use in video editing, but other than that I keep them intact to keep seeding the original file without producing duplicates.

.cue files are there to inform your player about where songs/chapters start in a record. It’s mostly for situation where you have ripped CDs as singular files and not tracks. It’s a frequent occurence in lossless torrents (.flac, .alac, .wav, audiocd territory) and the reasoning behind that may be that it keeps the most exact copy of a CD without any user-side interference, and .cue files are text files laying alongside your cd rip (and probably a log of ripping). Such interference may also be seen as unwanted in some cases, e.g. when the record is mastered that way one track seemlessly flows into another, so any way to cut between them is arguable.

Eating that pronouns soup.

There are a lot of fringe cases I’ve seen years ago on the internet of mostly elderly people dying to a monstrous dildo with or without a pushing motor causing internal bleeding or heart attack. It generally depends on what kind of intelligence a thrusting cock should have to start to count. We should be aware though that the bar with horny people aren’t that high to compare AI against it.

It was a brilliant, tremendous kidnapping, I aced it! That’s why they left me in my place.

People there a genuinely fed up with what Israel-the-State did, does and means, but it’s universal, unconditional backing makes any objection ignored or even presecuted, that pushes them even further in their speech when they have a place to vent about it. Most (I heartly assume) won’t even think of supporting a random bombing of civilians in Israel, but IDF headquarters, Pegasus developers’ office may be seen as a fair game, since it is a matter of a personal choice. And these plans of Nvidia to build a facility there aren’t far from that, this company is collaborating and supporting whatever that exact state does. That puts a stain on every entity that knowingly wants to profit off that, from contractors to employees many of whom have career options elsewhere.

For Israel, inviting more and more companies on their ground brings them leverage, importance, legitimizes their landgrabs on international level and makes these facilities essentially a hostage, attack on which would be seen as extremely unacceptable. For Nvidia it’s, probably, an undisclosed agreement about price rates for land, resources, maybe an untapped recruiting potential, but more importantly less regulations compared to more woke countries, as everything benefitting Israel is pretty legal and nice. As Israel army and intelligence want to be on the edge of weaponizing machine learning, it makes sense these two partner up to ensure maximal efficiency in their endeavours. It is unethical to train your AI to aim a gun at brown people, but not there, and here half of the world pays for just that kind of thing.

For the war - it means, that another mega company put it’s chips on the current Israeli state, so we are further and further from any sensible resolution. It’s the opposite - it would feel even more empowered to do attrocities to everyone around them. And with how the situation unfolds, it’s hard to imagine this state, and even the same people who populate this place to stop being the driving force behind genocides and warcrimes for it looks if not designed to be a constant peace disruptor, an avantguard of western hard power in the ME, but happens to be just that, and succeedes at that.

It would, in the moment. It is psychologically empowering to them, at least before it becomes stale, but they’d now resist any advance towards unmasking them as this would make them feel naked and vulnerable for a period of time. This affects their decision making, their arrogance.

Add another ad on top and you get the russian internet rn. The difference is: american media has way more traction.

I would cum blood seeing that car going over packs and packs of nvidia videocards.

There were recent posts in instances’ meta about a bot wave. Reporting them may help.

I guess, besides stupid pride and challenging copyright fuckos, it also whitelists these uploads as coming from a reputable source, shows that’s the community is alive and still kicking.

It seems like overstretching the image of primarly-bookhunting piracy community. It could’ve been Anna’s Playlist or something. Next we’d hear the FitGirl’s name is Anya too.

Having a resource with a distinct field of interest and set of challenges, foes, arguments makes way more sense to me. In public perception, stealing a book and stealing a CD, or a movie are waslty different cases, and being book-first was their natural advantage in claiming the high horse in every discussion.
