The title seemed quite negative but the article is quite good.

I hope that POSSE is the future but the layperson will not host their own site that serves as their "identity" which makes me feel that at some point we will have "identity management" services which will again centralize part of the web (in a less worse way)

  • Search for a title you want to watch, autocomplete fills in the full movie but the movie isn't available in your region / on netflix

Only NVIDIA 3000-series cards and up support hardware AV1 decoding and only 4000-series cards support both hardware AV1 encoding and decoding, so only just about 3 year old cards! source

All Intel ARC cards support both decode and encode, (released October 2022) source

AMD 6000-series cards (November 2020) support AV1 hardware decoding and only 7000-series cards (December 2022) support both hardware AV1 encoding and decoding. source

For simple HTML websites using wget -p -k example.com should work.

For more complex sites maybe try ArchiveBox

The releases with ads are often CAM or TS releases which are recorded at the movie theater with a camera

At least torrentgalaxy marks ad-ridden releases with a small red "ad" label which i filter out with a ublock origin filter torrentgalaxy.to##.fa-adversal:upward(3)

On other sites releases with ads might have the advertisement in the name like XBET

I'm usually not in a hurry to watch the newest movies so i wait for the webrip/dl versions of which the highest seeded versions have an extremely low probability of containing ads

The speeds on specific torrents are averaged over x seconds but at the bottom right you can see the up / down speeds live (all torrents combined)

Possibly(?) related official notice https://devicepartner.microsoft.com/en-us/communications/comm-windows-ends-installation-path-for-free-windows-7-8-upgrade

Never spent the time to figure out what KMS actually did but seems like licenses weren't validated when upgrading from 7 -> 8 / 11

I wonder if this comes from the only help / discussion being on Discord which has an infamously horrible search feature.

A forum could even be indexed by search engines so no need for:

  1. A discord account
  2. Annoying the developers with frequently asked questions

This was the first thing that came to my mind as i heard the monetization news.

What i don't understand is in what world throwing away your credibility first would be considered a "good business move"
