It’s cost cutting. They’re burning cash faster than they can raise it.

Micron make RAM. I don’t think we should give any more credence to their claims than we do to Elon’s. Their goal here is to pump their share price, nothing more.

If I remember right, wasn’t shutting down Sora one of Ed’s signs of the apocalypse?

Jesus fucking Christ.

OK little Timmy, today we’re going to learn that sometimes people express things in their “inner voice”, but they don’t share those things in their “outer voice”.

And sometimes, later, they might share those “inner voice” thoughts with other people in an environment where it’s safe to do. But it doesn’t mean they have to express those inner voice thoughts to the person that they were thinking them about?

Does that help you understand better? Would youv maybe like a juice box and a lie down to think about it?

These are the exact same people who cheer when Hegseth says that women shouldn’t be in the military.

This is how they see women in uniform; as sex objects. As a fetish. Not as people who put a lot of hard work into doing a really hard job.

Americans will worship the ground a soldier works on, to a degree that absolutely sickens me (and I’m in a military family), but only as long as that soldier is male. The moment a woman picks up a rifle, she’s a pin up, nothing more.

Even better than that is Siteground’s absolutely abysmal support system.

In order to access support they force you to type your question into their chatbot first. This is not optional. It’s the only way to get support.

Fools that we are, we actually tried the solution the chatbot offered. This resulted in a good amount of time wasted looking for settings that didn’t exist, because the solution was total bullshit. They claim they’ve customized this thing to give helpful outputs, but it’s clearly just ChatGPT with a custom prompt.

When we finally spoke to an agent I pointed this out and they responded with the stock “You should always double check the output of AI” line.

DOUBLE CHECK WITH WHOM, YOU MOUTH BREATHING MORON? THIS IS YOUR OFFICIAL FUCKING SUPPORT CHANNEL. YOU LITERALLY DIDN’T GIVE ME ACCESS TO ANY OTHER KIND OF SUPPORT UNTIL I USED THE CHATBOT FIRST, SO WHERE IN THE ACTUAL FUCK AM I SUPPOSED TO DOUBLE CHECK THE OUTPUT?

Is it with a customer service agent? Is that what you’re saying?! That I should ignore whatever it tells me, wait until I can talk to a representative and then do whatever they say instead? Because if that’s the case, WHY IN THE FUCK ARE YOU FORCING EVERYONE TO TALK TO THE BOT FIRST??!!!

Absolutely fucking asinine idiocy. Anyway, don’t use Siteground, they fucking suck.

Hey, I’m not saying that like it’s a bad thing.

INTERNET YIFF MACHINE

Because of course it would be furries.

They use five different removers bundled together into one neat package, with the plugin automatically selecting the one most likely to work on that specific page. Personally, I’ve never yet found a paywall it couldn’t beat. I’m sure some exist, but it’s few enough that it’s basically a solved problem.

And since archive links are one of the options it tries, if it doesn’t work, then getting an archive link from OP isn’t gonna happen either.

For the record, you could install the removepaywalls.com browser extension on all your devices and never have this problem again.

It’s genuinely shocking when you consider how shitty white boys will try to be a rapper about literally anything. There are multiple guys out there rapping about crypto, NFTs, and $GME. But these fucking losers had to get a computer to spit one out because they can’t even manage to be as appealing as a conspiracy theory about a mythical short squeeze that will reset the entire global financial system.

Gee guys… Did you maybe build a whole bunch of compute capacity for a product no one actually wants, and now you have to find a way to use it for something?

Never buy Hisense, got it.

So, yes, you’re basically correct.

There are search layers that remove the need to access radarr / sonarr directly when searching for shows (someone mentioned jellyseer, for example), so that part of the process can be streamlined, and once you’re watching a show it’s generally very good at pulling new episodes as soon as they’re available, so you’re typically, at most, a day behind actual airing dates. But if you’re trying to just bounce around and try a bunch of different shows it wouldn’t be the best for that. The biggest constraint is generally the speed of your internet and the popularity of what you’re watching. With a high speed connection and a well seeded torrent it’s often only a a couple of minutes to download a pilot episode, and you could have the whole season done by the time you finish watching that.

The other question is one of storage. If you’ve got plenty of hard disk space then you can probably afford to just throw anything that sounds interesting on your pull queue and work your way through it when you actually have time to sit down and watch. Basically you sort of pre-emptively build your “Netflix at home” library and then do your bouncing around channel hopping stuff with the five or so vaguely interesting shows that you added while you were at work.

Is it a replacement for Netflix et al? Not strictly speaking, but if you don’t mind changing up your habits a little it’s probably close enough.

If you run Fcast receiver on your android TV device, you can cast to it from Grayjay without ads.

Oh, excellent, I’ll be checking that out right away. I have an iPad that I’m stuck with from work and it’d be great to get ad free YouTube there.

Are you running Ublock on Chrome or Firefox? It works significantly better on Firefox. I’ve never seen an ad get through it.

Someone else in this thread mentioned TizenTube, that sounds like what you’re looking for.

But personally I just grabbed an Nvidia Shield. It works great and if you swap out the default launcher you’ll never see a single ad on it (with the right apps). Plus the pro is beefy enough to run some decent emulators too.

That genuinely would not surprise me in the slightest.
