What drew you to the high seas?
  • My childhood home only has dialup Internet. First year at college I found out someone ran a DC++ instance on the network and it was over from there. I got a 2tb HDD because I had to, and could, download enough movies/shows to last me the summer. I stopped for a while when I moved out and actually had broadband, but then Netflix stopped being Netflix and became $NFLX, and with all the other services popping up I heard the call of the seas again

  • The second matchup of the tournament
  • HELL YEAH BRÖTHER! WOLVES WILL RESPECT YOUR PERSONAL SPACE AS LONG AS YOU RESPECT THEIRS! THEY COULD ALSO RAISE YOUR YOUNG 'UNS TO FORM ONE OF THE MOST HISTORICALLY AND CULTURALLY RELEVANT CITIES/EMPIRES IN HISTORY! AROOOOOOOOOOO(ME)

  • Australia has rated Hollow Knight: Silk Song
  • I think for sure it's coming soon! The rating, the store page. I mean there was a dang total solar eclipse this year and it's always dark in hollow Knight! In fact, if you look at how long the solar eclipse lasted there's a date in there!! And I'm sure that that's going to be the day that Silksong comes out!!! This isn't cope!!!!

    It's real!!!!!

    IT'S ALL REAL!!!!!! STOP LAUGHING AT ME!!!??

  • Tracker recommendations
  • I got into TorrentLeech and MAM with the intention of building reputation and getting into a better tracker, but frankly I've never needed to take that extra step. If I can't find something on TL I can make a request and someone will have it uploading within a day or two, but I've only ever had to do that with obscure stuff like Pros vs Joes

  • I read the Murderbot Diaries series of books, and the main character, a robot, seems to have major ADHD…
  • While I don't think that a main character has ADHD specifically, The Stormlight Archive by Brandon Sanderson deals with various mental health problems. I will say that Stormlight is on a whole different scale though. Looks like the first book is about the length of the whole murderbot series and there are 4 books out currently with another coming in December

  • Libertarianism just replaces governments with corporations, and doesn't lead to freedom!
  • Reading Atlas Shrugged is actually what broke me out of my teenage libertarian phase. I saw the central conflict of the book as those who were willing to engage with reality (the industrialists) vs. those who wouldn't engage with reality (the bleeding hearts). However when I turned my mind to the real world it was easy to see that the people ruled by their feelings and far more likely to reject reality were the conservatives and the business types that the book wanted you to believe were the heroes when, in fact, they were just the more long winded. Galt's arrogant and literally 3 hour long speech (I listened to the audiobook) gives the lie to the idea that this was a confident truth sayer and revealed him to be just a guy who would speak until others had no choice but to believe him. He's the guy from "Thank You For Smoking", an unprincipled blowhard. And the people that followed him were just soft minded, listless, and selfish enough to only want what was good for themselves

  • We're going in the wrong direction
  • TikTok has video controls. Tap to pause/play. And there's a progress bar you can drag to seek. Instagram and YouTube shorts are much more difficult to control

    Edit: you can even hold either edge of the screen to speed up the video in TikTok. And a 2 finger hold hides the caption and interface

  • 13 Months
  • Kodak used to operate on this 13 month calendar. When I asked someone who used to work there, she was shocked that I knew about it and said that it was the best thing about working there. The original plan that this calendar is based on called for a liminal day between years for New Year's Day with 2 days for leap years
