That’s been my life for the past 10 years, you won’t regret it at all.

Yeah, the answer here is cancel prime and pirate whatever amazon video content you want. if you absolutely have to have prime for some reason, don’t sign in to amazon video on any of your devices and pirate the stuff you want to watch so at least your not contributing to views or their prime video ad revenue.

Edit - I see in another comment you said you unsubscribed, good on you.

How the fuck both the prime ministers from 2013 mentioned in that wiki article still leading their respective countries 11 years later?

that’s exactly what i’d expect a dark empath to say. sheathe your knife unless you want to get saddled with karmic debt bro. you’re limited to paying off karmic debt in transactions of no more than 3k eurohms each, and with this dark energy you’d be in karmic debt into the millions.

MacOS is really the only one I never understood unless you’re really tied to the Apple ecosystem.

I’d argue the “just use Linux” meme is more relevant for Mac users than Windows.

At this point when I’m choosing a computer I’m really just choosing a hypervisor front end.

MacOS gives me all the familiarity and transferred knowledge that I built up with Linux, but with a much more polished desktop experience. I like the Messenger sync, it helps me actually notice texts from my partner when I’m rabbit-holing hard. I like Mail better than Outlook (or Thunderbird or whatever the modern mail client on Linux is now).

I just prefer MacOS as the glue between all my VMs that I work in each day. I’m personally on the desktop pc with Windows for gaming, MBP for all my work/hobby work (using VMs with whatever OS is necessary that day), and headless Debian on any servers train.

Yeah, Usenet servers all have a maximum retention time, usually around 3000 days or something like that. Any articles older than the retention time of your server won’t exist for you to grab, but stuff is usually reuploaded frequently. With torrents a super niche thing requires someone seeding the content all the time for it to be consistently accessible, while Usenet requires someone to reupload it once every 5-10 years (barring takedowns) which imo is more consistently stable, but as the other poster said having both ensures your bases are covered. I personally don’t really torrent anything beyond oddball bbc2+ documentaries at this point though.
