  • yeah not available on any torrent sites. I checked all of the major ones through Jackett and it returned no results. If you’re curious, the name of the movie is “Kulkarni Chaukatla Deshpande”. There’s a couple movies like that that are available on Amazon Prime India but not on torrent trackers.

  • yeah and we’re already seeing that with how now you need an account with your personal information just to use software. And everything is requiring a phone number and SMS verification to setup. I miss the days when all I needed to create an account on major sites was an email and password.

  • Even VPN isn’t enough. Ex. One time I wanted to watch a show that’s only available on Amazon Prime India according to justwatch. VPN isn’t enough because I’m using US-based Amazon account and I have to create an Amazon IN account per Amazon’s policies. And for that I need an India phone number for verification. So of course I don’t want to spend money on account setup especially since I don’t know if it’ll work. So I setup Azure VM based in India (in case they use location) but it still got stuck on the phone verification or puzzle loop so there’s nothing I can do unless I find a friend in India and use their account :(

  • Windows 12 release date in 2026 possible, with AI features that may force CPU upgrades

  • Agree, Windows 11 is now harder to use now than Linux distro like Mint. Just to setup, you have to create a Microsoft account and if you want to skip that, then you have to put commands in powershell or use rufus to disable all that.

    And don’t get me started on forced restarts for updates, the abysmal S0 modern sleep implementation, and so many more. I have to use gpedit.msc just to fix these issues. I think the only reason why Windows still has such a high market is because of enterprise agreements and that it’s pre-installed on every PC laptop.

  • Have you used the latest macOS 26? The UI is terrible and constant bugs and glitches with the new liquid glass look.

  • I recommend installing jackett: https://github.com/Jackett/Jackett

    It’s a tool that searches major torrent sites at once and it integrates right into qbitorrent which simplifies things a lot.

  • “This show is not available in your country” is the one that pisses me off the most. The Internet connects the entire world and then we have unnecessary artificial barriers like georestriction for no reason. There’s foreign shows I’ve been wanting to watch but they’re not available on torrents and only on these georestricted platforms so I can’t even watch it even if I’m willing to pay (which I am for few films).

  • Trump announces Operation Epic Furry

  • Some of the smartest people I’ve met are furries. So many Software Engineers and IT furs. Also met some who are government contractors so you’re not far off lol X3

  • Not just Lockheed. RTX, Northrop, Boeing Defense, etc. From my interactions, I've found the ppl who willingly work fulltime at those companies either are extremely ignorant or brainwashed into thinking that they are working for the right side.

  • Good having been to Mumbai there’s way too much overpopulation in this country. It’s not sustainable

  • Today is the 40th Anniversay of Zelda!

    Jump

  • I remember playing Zelda I on an emulator. The progression was absolutely brutal since the game doesn’t give any hints on where to go. I don’t know how people back in the day did it without guides and walkthrough vids. Still an amazing game that was really ahead of its time (and I believe the first console game to save!)

  • Is this WD MyBook 6tb drive still good?

    Jump

  • It's definitely out of warranty by now. Think it was bought around 2018 from Costco. I don't believe the drive has been dropped but it has been moved several times.

    Jump

  • Yes, it's an external drive. Specifically WD MyBook

  • YouTube adds new hurdles for ad blockers, and there's currently no way around it

    Jump

  • YT search is completely broken. It used to be that the first 3-4 videos were relevant and the rest were YT shorts or stuff you previously watched. Now, not even the first result is related to what I search for. I have to use Google in order to get the video I actually want. Even incognito in YT doesn't help much nowadays.

  • To me most trans men who have fully transitioned (after T) are pretty much indistinguishable from cis men. Their looks and voice sound just like a cis man. While for many trans women, some things still come off like their voice and body shape even after HRT and surgery compared to cis women.

  • What do y’all think about Cloudflare?

  • Cloudflare isn’t profitable according to their quarterly earnings reports.
