@gemlog Looks like what has happened put the whole system in disarray, no one knows what's happening now, yesterday Putin had congratulated Byelorussian people with their Independence Day. It's next Monday. So he did it five days in advance, on Wednesday — looks like they are putting all pre-recorded material they have to use. Another proof that it wasn't false flag. FSB seized the famous "troll factories" equipment — so now is a great time to check who's grassroots, who's on payroll😂

@anniemo71 Oh, it's everywhere on the Internet 🤣
Original website had a way to filter out NSFW content, it had extensive categorization so if you wanted just the TV shows, you could browse just that, but, like I said, I'm not sure about the mirror.
@gemlog

@gemlog Original one was indeed shutdown, there is even a Wikipedia article about it: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RARBG#Sh
There might be unofficial (whatever that might mean in this case) mirrors — someone's attempts at reviving it. But with torrent sites it always gets down to trust, I did trust the original team, mirrors — not so sure. With video you are safe of course — in worst case you just don't get what you want, but I wouldn't try it with software 😅

@gemlog Problem with this T40 isn't suspend-related, it's a decade old bug in old Intel wireless module which never got fixed and that prevents it from associating with WPA2 access point — it usually succeeds after a dozen retries, but of course on resume it has to do it again and you can't tell how much time it will take, this ruins the whole experience of using the machine, making it unreliable, it always "kinda works but might not" 🤣

@gemlog I think Hibernation (or Suspend-to-Disk) works more or less reliably since it was re-introduced as SWsuspend2 in Linux 2.6, superseeding the previous implementation. I've never had major issues with it on x86 or x86-64 machines with modern 5.x/6.x kernels. It even works on my PPC64 machine. Suspend-to-RAM works fine on x86 and x86-64, but not on PowerPC or ARM michines, with the latter it's hit or miss and depends on particular SoC.

@neural_meduza Это халумис называется — довольное вкусно между прочим, самогонщики знают толк 😋

@urusan Happens to me all the time when I try to accomplish a lot in one day. Taking a shower becomes a struggle and in the end even falling asleep might become a problem. Never underestimate taking a steady pace.

@adiz The main point is discovery IMO. When you already know the ins and outs you no longer need that, you'd probably stick with the one with moderation policy that suits you.
But when you are new to this it might be important as discovery is inferior to what most people are used to. TWKN might be overwhelming, local timeline would do a better job, thus picking instance that matches your interests might be important 🤷

@theorytoe With less distro maintainers and users inclined to follow RedHat in their footsteps now, I hope this abomination just dies at last.
I know, systemd gets so much hate that it's poor taste to hate it more, but I still think it doesn't get enough 😈

@neural_meduza Думаю, что вот именно петербуржцев таким запахом и не напугаешь 🤪

@gemlog @anniemo71
> I guess w/e your country is, ain't on that list
One might be inclined to believe that, but actually we've had a lot of Bittorrent-related stuff blocked in Russia 😅 And they had stared cracking down on it long before it was used for political censorship, the largest one — RuTracker, formerly torrents.ru, remained blocked for years. I think they've unblocked it only recently. That will kill off remaining streaming services we still have, but looks like no one cares now.

@gemlog @anniemo71
I've been mostly using RARBG to cover my video piracy needs in recent years, it was good, but they've got shut down a month ago or so and I've found this one: yts.mx/
So far so good for movies, but they don't have TV shows.
I also use cinemaz.to for older and less known European stuff shot for local markets (I've even found those artsy movies by F.J.Ossang there which I couldn't find anywhere else), but it's invite-only and I'm currently out of invite points 😔

@yukiame Are they okay? 🙀
One of my cats does that all the time and he looks so detached that I get tempted to put his tongue back in 😹

@lowqualityfacts Phew… At leas we've got this sorted out now.
Remaining mysteries: was Marvin Gaye really gay?

@dx Exactly! The trolley problem was never supposed to be a problem — there's just no trolley 🤪
It's one of those false dichotomies.
@theropologist @forpeterssake

@syn This stuff is extremely addictive. I can't fall asleep now without that fuckwit talking 😩
At minimal volume though and screen so dim that I can barely see him even in perfect darkness 😅
