Ain’t no ads on Jellyfin.

Not even people who say “on accident”?

But spoken it’s fine. It’s could’ve.

It’s when that gets written as “could of” that it becomes an abomination…

I know somebody who is great at chess, but thinks covid was a hoax, vaccines are fake, Musk is a genius and Russia has a right to Ukraine.

We’re all capable of being a dumb-ass while having something else we’re good at.

Yes, but they’re the same sort of people that think Elon Musk is a genius.

Really? I’m not sure any movie feels more 90s than Terminator 2.

Or, do what a disturbing number of people have done and make them the centrepiece of your entire life.

Posters all over your house, stickers and flags all over your mobility scooter, hats, T-shirts, the lot.

In the morning, if my face is a little puffy, I’ll put on an ice pack while doing my stomach crunches. I can do a thousand now. After I remove the ice pack, I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower, I use a water activated gel cleanser. Then a honey almond body scrub. And on the face, an exfoliating gel scrub. Then apply an herb mint facial mask, which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an aftershave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion.

And much like ad blocking in browsers, if it starts becoming a common behaviour, it will be prevented at all costs.

“Rich Ongoing Notifications”

Translate Google to English:

“Intrusive Unblockable Ads”

Just stick .ml with hexbear and grad on your blocklist and move on.

As an aphantasia person myself, it is honestly mind boggling that people can visualise things that aren’t there. Like that must be so much effort on things that aren’t needed.

Suppose it means you can just have a wank and not need porn though.

I use an Nvidia shield pro.

Certainly handles Jellyfin and Moonlight (for gaming, I could never get Steam Link working smoothly).

I assume there’s a YouTube client you can drop on it but I don’t use YouTube for much because I can’t stand YouTubers.

I don’t binge. Can be helpful if it’s been a few weeks since I last watched one, although if it’s been that long and I can’t remember what happened then it’s probably not that good a show anyway.

Maybe have the recap as a separate bit that plays only if you’re not?

A while ago Amazon introduced plans for an AI powered Alexa.

Sure enough, the original one has got worse since. I can now ask the one upstairs to turn off the office light and be told there are no devices with that name. Yet if I go to the kitchen to ask the same thing, I’ll be told there are multiple devices with that name, and it doesn’t know which one.

So now I use a switch.

The problem with a product from any large corporation is you want it to get better, but they want it to generate more money.

• Ring (Japanese original)

• The Eye (Taiwanese? Thai?)

• M3GAN (you want the PG/13 rated version, as there’s a gory cut out there)

• The Conjuring 2 (the best of the whole franchise)

• Nope

That should keep you going for a bit.

He’s honestly the only reason I’ve still got a Netflix subscription at this point.

He did one of the segments in the new V/H/S Beyond movie as well, although I’m pretty sure that falls under gore for this question.

Because it doesn’t have $100s of millions to throw at marketing, or the name dropping of Twitter creators behind it.

It is what it is. You can either be alright with being small, or hurl money into it, but the people who hurl money into things tend to want it back at some point, and that means becoming a shitty business.

There were two isometric Tomb Raider games a couple of years back (Guardian of Light and Temple of Osiris which wasn’t as good IMO). You could play in single player, but the co-op mode tweaked the puzzles slightly so you’d need to work together to complete them. And as luck would have it they’re both on sale. The first is currently a whopping £1.27 on Steam.

If you fancy going even further back, there was a PS2 game called Kuri Kuri Mix by FromSoft. It may looks like it was made for toddlers, but it was surprisingly tough in places. You almost certainly can’t buy that any more, but I’m sure and emulator and ROM site will do nicely.
