WTF? Howso? Did I discredit op? No according to wikipedia: "Whataboutism is a variant of the tu quoque logical fallacy that attempts to discredit an opponent's position by charging them with hypocrisy without directly refuting or disproving their argument, which is particularly associated...

No data is safe online. If you want to put your faith in the eu LOL. Five eyes shares everything you do and say online and all the metadata. What is the mighty eu going to do to stop this flow of "your" data? Nothing.. Verizon and Comcast and all the big usa isps give nsa open metadata feed...

This news is ancient. Former head of nsa said at blackhat conference in vegas 5 years ago, when someone asked him about hacking pc's, he laughed at the bitch and said proudly we don't need to hack pc's, we hack routers. Most of the zero days being used were leaked by shadow brokers and...

this thread is tldr but I agree with elon.

Disney dollars can be duplicated, not even close to the same value. Lame trolling, I get it you don't like crypto. It's cool, you are allowed to be wrong but why needlessly come in to a thread like this to antagonize the people who like it and know how to read? No one in this thread has...

^That's just like, an opinion man.

Well I think the beauty of blockchain and crypto currency is we have currency that is being distributed and traded for the first time in history by non state actors. Traditionally the king mints the coins, and taxes you in his coins, or else the threat of violence. With bitcoin, satoshi...

do you have a backup? Like another copy?

I don't have nas but run Serviio from a desktop with 2tb drive. It works fine, any format, any device:

Love the full house comment. I was going to say touched by an angel. Either way R&M, 1000 more years, forever. Forever, Morty. Fingers crossed for Phoenix Person to show up.

ooooo weeeeee, this is the best day of my life.

havent used it since they sold, now with discord and oovoo and all the alternatives why would I? Microsoft ran it into the ground. I think my account may have some change on it still but call quality sucked and video calls never worked any device any isp. The myspace analogy fits like a glove.

This computer I am using is better than the one I had before, AMD A6 compared to A4, and I have firefox and three tabs open and ram use is 35% steady. I don't think it's a resource hog or anything it just is intense on weaker systems. That's the way the winds are blowing, they don't even make...

Be safe.

Not just you.

are you are you suggesting crypto currency is a Ponzi scheme? https://www.ccn.com/world-bank-bitcoin-not-ponzi-scheme/

I have also read its an nsa psyop to get everyones transactions documented on blockchain so they know who to get rid of. I wouldn't put either past the powers that be.

lol yea that is a common detraction, people say the wealth distribution in crypto is spread more thinly than north korea, but that's because it favors early adoption. Most financial instruments benefit those who look ahead, this is no different.

True, also it needs to be adopted by the masses. But even with all the negative press and regulation it's the future, having a correction and outperforming stocks currently.

The whole point of crypto is to decentralize though...

Use mediainfo on one of the movies it gives you all the stats for the files to be absolutely sure, but if the highest overall bitrate you list is so low, then you don't need $700 worth of computer to do what you're doing. Mine has 2 core and 2gb ram and doing fine. One problem and thing I...

did you turn off hibernation in the os admin cmd powercfg -h off

Thanks guys I have wondered about this for a long time, don't want to get it and there is no sound or its black and white or some bs like that. Thanks, its hard to know from the sites that sell these things if they are legit or not since they all have paid shills do the reviews. I am still...

no one has mentioned the bitrate of what he is trying to play. If most of the movies are 50,000kbps bitrate then yes get nice hardware, but if they are like 1,000-15,000kbps or so, which most of mine are, I would think you could get by with something less. I have a very old core2duo desktop...

I see what you did there it says mine is 30% ram at rest.

I am using a 4 year old amd a4 and 18.04 works perfectly for what I do but I am not playing games.

For all of you saying "disconnect it from the internet then its secure" that is false. Computers that are offline, in faraday cage, have been hacked through heat signature. Lots of things can be done to intercept electronic signals. Of course screwing medical patients is bad but some of you...

^ from the jokebook written by jimmy in third grade. People go to movie theaters still? Oh, let's pay $10 per person plus food to see a superhero/sequel/remake in a big room filled with strangers? Seems archaic and needless now. I think I have seen two movies in the theater in the last 6...

YOLO, brah....

That's some fine police work, Lou!

What percent of the internet runs on aws and what fee do they pull in from this percent of the entire internet round the clock? That is the business model, domination.

Long live the Commonwealth, comrades! Seriously, is Marie Antoinette the governor now? Let them take the bus...., (makes it rain in tollbooth and peels out in Ferrari) VA is corrupt af (gov mcdonald was caught for it) and this is just another example of money buying legal favors.

you can buy logins for $5 from data dumps, I wouldn't be to sure about that. https://haveibeenpwned.com I have lots of info lost in various attacks over the years. Have to constantly change passwords.

Hard to keep passwords current if its in safety deposit box. I keep keepass on an external drive with a password on it, simple yet effective.

I have 64bit machine with dual core amd 1.6ghz and it can't run modern distros such as ubuntu 17.10.1 or Debian. Try puppy linux or damn small linux imo they are better suited to that old timer.

Did somebody say oil!?!

I deleted mine about a month before all the cambridge thing happened. I had about 200 friends who had alll become strangers with nothing in common with that I don't care to see them and hear their inane opinions about pop culture soundbites I have never heard. So I de-uthorized it. It says...

I don't play online games or use skype or any of that so it won't effect me but it should show people they are too dependent on google/ms/apple behemoths and we need to diversify our bonds in the software and internet game. My next computer will not have microsoft anything on it. I like...
