From what I’ve heard having near-death experiences while riding a bike in Netherlands is the norm and the Dutch are used to it. Somehow they manage not to kill themselves all the time, which remains a mystery.

Yes, let’s call other gamers monkeys based on platform of choice. Kneejerk reaction would be to call PC gamers the most toxic bunch but I know it’s just a loud basement dwelling minority thankfully.

Where am I wrong?

That’s still the case so automation + multiple providers is still the way to go. This guy here makes Usenet provider maps so that you can figure out what combination will work the best for you: https://gnu.gl/users/rexum/statuses/114789594488827582

I assumed OP is after some kind of media manager with integrated download capabilities and Zlib doesn’t have anything similar as far as I know.

That’s what I figured but was open to hearing how data centers won’t go bankrupt when current VC / investor money stops propping up AI arms race. I’m not even sure lots existing hardware won’t go to waste because there’s seemingly not enough power infrastructure to feed it and big tech corpos are building nuclear reactors (on top of restarting coal power plants…). Those reactors might be another silver lining however similar to cheap compute becoming available for scientific applications.

  • Couch Potato is pretty much dead, Radarr is the way to go.

  • Back in the day Sabnzbd was considered slow and inefficient so Nzbget was usually recommended. These days both are pretty much indistinguishable performance-wise and Sabnzbd seems to get more active development.

For plain ebooks there’s a Calibre plugin that integrates Anna’s Archive as a store. Requires a paid account but works okay in my limited experience.

Sudan is a least developed country and among the poorest countries in the world,[37] ranking 170th on the Human Development Index as of 2024 and 185th by nominal GDP per capita. Its economy largely relies on agriculture due to international sanctions and isolation, as well as a history of internal instability and factional violence. The large majority of Sudan is dry and over 60% of Sudan's population lives in poverty.

Why not just drop them in the middle of the ocean instead?

Who’s read it as „top dog’s court order”?

Unfortunately I think it was more that they were stolen from rich people rather than being a nuisance to poor people who have to coexist with those pointlessly noisy hunks of steel:

Several stolen vehicles were recovered, with 10 others found to have no valid MoT and 11 without road tax.

What’s the commercial use for current capacity of hyper scale compute?
