Direct playing. It's such a drastic difference, there's no banding in Android devices I have, only on my Linux system.

Of course, if they went head to head, both cloudflare and Google would have the resources to fight back while quad9 is just a non-profit.

That's transmission. My mistake, I somehow got the wrong impression that you had a working transmission set up before.

Glad to hear that everything is resolved :)

Holy shit you're the guy from the meme

Yeah I totally am you know.

Despite the fact that I have never had a Twitter account.

Or despite the fact that I work in a charity teaching and facilitating teaching of the same children covered by affirmative action equivalent in my poor third world country earning bare minimum.

Or despite the fact that I've know and participated in research programs aimed at assessing the impact of such measures.

I get that because we're online, people feel certain freedom to say whatever they want but please be mindful of the fact that a real person is at the other end in the future.

I'm not one of those people, especially since I don't live in the US but is it so hard to envision having different views on different issues?

All of the stances taken by one side need not resonate with you.

I for example am not in support of social media witch hunts when someone is accused of being racist/sexist/classist and and so on. I firmly believe that we should be instituting bodies that have the power to investigate issues like this and take appropriate actions, with more freedom than the typical judicial process. This however does not mean that I don't support gender equality, climate action or social welfare measures.

Another example would be affirmative action. I find it horrible that the supreme court gutted it the way it did but I also find it quite unpleasant that the elected representatives, in all this time, did not try to replace it with grassroot level measure such as food security, free tuition, books etc. higher school and teacher density in lower income or low performing areas. I feel that affirmative action was a stop gap measure, but it ended up being the prop used by politicians to not act on more fundamental issues.

Honestly, I would rather forgo the label altogether. In my experience label makes people into tribes and tribes aren't really conducive to nuanced dialogue or individual opinions, rather, they're good at collective action.

Where are you sending from? Home computer? Home computer with VPN? Seedbox? The answer will change based on which.

An easy hack might be to look at your transmission settings, find the port it uses and just copy that into qbittorrent settings.

I have, though it ended up with that person disappearing and trying to commit suicide. It took me a long time to get over the associated trauma.

The way I see it now is that love isn't something that will bind people to you and keep them with you forever. If you love someone, let them go, let them be free. If they still choose to be with you, then they love you too. If not, you couldn't have held on to that person without causing resentment and pain to both of you.

I hope some of this helps :)

If you host your dns with cloudflare free, you could probably get wildcard certs with DNS couldn't you? Even if you're registered with namecheap.

Hello 😄

I couldn't finish it. I usually can't deal with watching awkward situations or emotional drama on screen because I feel like I'm experiencing what the charector is. In case of EAW it was even worse because I could relate to her even more. I gave up when

spoilershe tried to hang herself to see if the defendant could have done it.
I suppose it hits too close to home, as you said. Like the revolving door scene 😅

The other part is this hyper empathy I have because of ASD.

Lol I know what you mean. Looking at my audiobook catalogue gives me anxiety sometimes 🤣

It was, but not just that I've read somewhere that the book managed to influence the jury who was hearing the case because it was so popular.
