Look at what they did with Internet Explorer. Same shit.

MashedTech ,

Thank God I pay them for protection, I don't know how I could live otherwise.

It's all a choice it seems. Damn these newer generations and their freedom of choosing the things that the older generations deemed great and easy to attain, the mindset of lazyness has encroached on the mind of the young ones through this TikTok and other electronic devices, poisoning their free will and corrupting their mind. Nobody thinks for themselves anymore these days.

MashedTech ,

Ironic texts are only for the brain washed zoomers.

MashedTech ,

Of course, what other problem could it be? If only they choose to make other choices... I can't stop shaking my head in disappointment

MashedTech ,

Try to log in from Europe, or change the details of your account to day Europe. Because with gdpr in Europe they are obligated to let you delete it.

I don't know much my opinion matters: but the unique features in kagi honestly really help me find what I need. I can lower domains, or raise other ones, it can search archives and has a general set of features that make digesting and finding relevant results easier. It's like a breath of fresh air, I can search and find not just endlessly search.

MashedTech ,

Interesting... What other cool facts do you have?

MashedTech ,

I use self checkout on the machines that don't weigh what you buy. Those work so well. The kind that have to weigh what you buy are slow and they always have an issue when I put items in bulk on them. Like two cans of beer if I don't set both of them down at once it just breaks down and tells me I have the wrong weight in any configuration.

MashedTech ,

Oh my god, YES. With the cashier I feel rushed and packing is a mess..

MashedTech ,

No, but it sure is annoying having to switch in the middle of doing something especially when you're working. (Also, there's that pesky thing that happened to me as well where windows doesn't play nice with the Linux boot partition and fucks it up) So there's always going to be a main os. If you're fortunate enough you can use an old laptop for windows. Or, if your computer is powerful enough run an windows VM. For me, Gnome Boxes offered a really easy to use experience of running windows. It worked out of the box, no special tweaks.

MashedTech ,

If you don't turn on windows of course you won't have problems.

Look, honestly, to me at least, this horse has been dead for a 1000 years and we've been beating it since then. Initially I was as well, "haha funny, what is vim, so hard" and then I happened to interact with it for the first time, did a web search and all the amusement died. If it's like this we should make fun of Ctrl+C as well because "Omg, so hard to terminate a terminal program, there is no X to click on" just because this is non standard for a user that is familiar with only the GUI. We could abstract and transform this meme 1000 times because there will always be somebody who knows how to do something and then there is something else that doesn't work the way he/she/they/etc. are used to and searching for an answer is too hard.

Or am I just dumb, ranting about something that doesn't even matter because in the end there will always be new people, for which vim is new and hard and vim maybe is the most popular thing most of the new users on here have a hard time understanding. Will this meme ever evolve into something else at one point? Was there a precursor to this meme before vim or vi existed? What are other similar memes that I reacted to the same way because I find myself in a similar spot as most people find themselves with vim and I am just a hypocrite?

TL;DR: Just disregard my useless comment, enjoy the things you want to enjoy, and be happy, you only get one life, don't waste it getting mad at useless shit.

It's an app that can integrate with a lot of streaming services(officially) and has a built-in torrent client(that does nothing). (You know, all of this so that they can be accessible on all platforms, etc. torrenting isn't viewed kindly by platform makers) With the help of third party plugins (such as Torrentio) stremio now has access to systems where you can integrate with torrent sources so that when you browse for your movie, you can also see torrent sources and with the help of the built in torrent client, you can also stream them. Stremio has casting support and apps for all devices, even TV. It makes it really easy to watch movies easier and in better quality than any streaming service. It also keeps track where you last were in your movie so you can resume, the same thing for shows, also has many other useful extensions that streaming services don't support, such as Trakt.tv integration, or browsing curated lists of movies and shows from anywhere, as well as integrating with other sources outside of torrents such as providers holding archived materials.
