That's a long watch. Caught some of it though and that's super shitty.
It's not funny and actually cringe because what point is it proving? It's kind of like sticking beer cans under there and asking if you're thirsty...

I've been using Antennapod forever. Podcasts, historically, are just some media files dumped on some website and released. Recently platforms like spotify and others have made them easily browse-able, but it's still largely an open platform.
Having a hard time getting into it but I'm getting the witcher 3 vibes which is easily in my top 5 or 10.
What? This does not help me understand anything further.
Yeah, this is my exact hope. I was initially considering the index but don't want to deal with beacons and whatnot. Metas sets seem pretty good so if valves next gen is anything comparable I'll probably get one.
Steam deck is a banger, I love this thing. If the same care and attention is brought to an index 2, slam dunk.
Yes this is my main use case too, documentation. Flameshot and sharex are so quick for it. The osx one blows. So many clicks and drags. I'd rather just click and drag a box instead of spawn a box then move the corners around lol
What can I say, except your welcome 🤗
If only the people actually understood what it would mean and what the costs would be

I don't get this.
Seriously, enlighten me.
The whole point, unless I'm wrong, of Christianity, is to follow the laws of a book.
The same book that talks about women basically being property, killing gay people, and so many other things.
I have a hard time with it. Others have told me it's like you pick and choose but that doesn't make sense to me. You are picking a belief, a philosophy, a path. And that whole theme is riddled with bad things along with the good.
Router should, so long as you don't have some consumer garbage. But just the wireless radios alone on wireless is laughable. Shit changes every 5 years tops.
Animal crossing during COVID was a huge relief.

Personally I'm running 13 containers for various things. Worth it.

Meh, overpriced anyways.

The seven techies barely out of college helping Musk to slash billions from federal government
Recent college grads with no apparent government experience are tearing into Congress-approved programs, and may now have access to confidential information about hundreds of millions of Americans
A group of young tech industry workers between 19 to 25 years old have been recruited by Elon Musk to carry out the Trump administration and Department of Government Efficiency’s goals of cutting trillions from the federal government - and now have access to numerous sensitive systems.
Among them is a recent high school graduate and a Matt Gaetz defender who claims he quit a “seven-figure salary” to join DOGE and “save America.”
The group has little to no experience working in government, and yet some of them have been given central roles within Musk’s DOGE, including access to the U.S. Treasury’s internal payments system, according to WIRED.
Musk’s young crew have been unmasked as Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger and Ethan Shaotran, WIRED first reported. As their names were published, the group rushed to disable any trace of their social media profiles.
After the names of the engineers became public, the acting U.S. attorney for the
Federal employees say they were asked which of their colleagues should be fired during the “one-way interviews.”
Members of Elon Musk’s secretive team reviewing federal agencies for cuts are refusing to reveal their full names to civil servants, federal employees say.
Several government workers who have been interviewed by Musk’s team about their work say the billionaire’s representatives declined to give their surnames and refused to answer any questions themselves, according to the New York Times. The lack of transparency surrounding the work of the so-called Department of Government Efficiency is only adding to mounting anxiety within the federal workforce, the report says.

I was just summoned for the weirdest reason
I got summoned by some person, they drop 99x Marika runes (80K each), then a bunch of starlight. Then the person eats poison and dies and I return to my world. WTF?
I didn't even know there were 99x of these runes, unless this person beat the game repeatedly, got board, and was doing a giveaway. Or hax. lol.

I can't identify what song this is sampling
Please help. I tried chatgpt, google, duckduckgo, I can't find it. The background tune is definitely reminding me of some trance track from the 2000's era and I can't figure it out.

Samsung wanted this to be their week, and it still mostly is with the launch of the Fold 6, Flip 6, and the Galaxy Watch Ultra. However, Google’s upcoming Pixel 9 launch is incredibly close, so the leaks for it are only going to ramp up. Today, a fresh report is here to keep things moving toward that mid-August Pixel 9 event.
A site called Dealabs says they’ve uncovered information for the entire Pixel 9 family, giving us the storage configurations, colors of each device, and potential Euro pricing. Since we see information like this regularly before a launch, I’m just going to assume they found a retailer who slipped up early, even if they won’t say it.
So what do we know now about the Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro, and Pixel 9 Pro Fold? Let’s break it all down.
The Pixel 9 is now rumored to come in 4 different colors (Obsidian, Porcelain, Cosmo, and Mojito) and with two storage amounts (128GB or 256GB). Those models should then be priced at €899 and €999, respectively.

Spotify announces price hikes less than a year after its last ones.
Spotify is officially raising its Premium subscription rates in the US come July, following reports of the move in April. The platform is increasing its Individual plan from $11 to $12 monthly and its Duo plan from $15 to $17 monthly — the same jump as last year's $1 and $2 price hikes, respectively. However, its Family plan is going up by a whopping $3, increasing from $17 to $20 monthly. The only subscribers getting a break are students, who will continue to pay $6 monthly.
Spotify announced the price hikes less than a year after its previous one last July. Before that, Spotify hadn't raised its fees since launching a decade and a half ago. I guess it was too optimistic to hope the next increase would also take that long, especially with Spotify's continued focus (and money dump) on audiobooks.
Premium subscribers should receive an email from Spotify in the next month detailing the price hike and providing a link to cancel their plan if they would prefer to do so. Users currently o
