This comment section gives me hope for this platform.

I like command line stuff, so I use newsboat for the reader, and then yt-boat to download. yt-boat uses yt-dlp as it’s backend, but I’ve never had a problem with yt-dlp not downloading or asking for credentials though.

Config an RSS reader for the channels you follow on youtube. Watch the videos locally after downloading them. That’s what I do.

It seems like every other captcha I get has a picture of a moped and asks to click for a motorcycle. When I don’t click on the moped it says I’m wrong. Pisses me off.

Anyone who wasn’t around then can’t really know what they missed.

I’m no expert, but I think KeePassXC doesn’t need to sign in to a server somewhere.

koreader is my goto reader, on my tablet and phone. The interface is a bit unintuitive, but once you get it set up to your liking, it’s a great reader.

Isn’t that a Dodge?

I just have some syncthing shared folders with friends/family. It may be a little weird to set up, but once there, it’s seamless.

envy and jealousy are supposed to have different meanings, but idiots always use jealous when they mean envious. Annoys the fuck out of me.

I’ve decided to just ignore battery hype and tune back in when it’s time to swap out my house battery in 5-10 years. Hopefully some of the vaporware will have actually materialized in the market by that time.

I’m happy for a new streetcar line that is almost done in my area. My happiness is pretty pathetic and sad.

It’s like climate change action. Too little, too late. Or really not much at all. Thanks, you fucking primary DNC voters.

If I’ve learned anything over the years, it is that geriatric power vampires never willingly step down.

Name recognition is a hell of a thing. It explains why shitty incumbents consistently get re-elected. Also, voters are so fucking stupid.

I never even hinted that I was a Hillary supporter, and I agree 100% with all the shit you pointed out. I just think the fucking dipshits that actually voted for her need to be blamed at least as much. Too many bitch about corruption, nepitism, and general fuckery, then go and vote for “their” corrupt politian. It’s fucking gross.

Don’t place the blame on her. Blame the dumb fuck primary voters. Or the dumb fucks who couldn’t be bothered to vote in the primary and then bitched about their shitty choice.

EDIT: Amazing the twists people will go through to excuse dumb ass voters.

This is what most of the schools around my area installed a couple years ago:

I heard Gerald Ford’s son talk about being on Spring Break and a fellow breaker came up to him and whispered,“Man, I don’t know what you did, but you have some Feds watching everything you do!!”

OK gatekeeper.
