The Eye of Sauron is a very heavy motif used throughout the book, Jackson taking such an impactful literary device and turning it into the iconic cinematic visual it is today was very well done.

Bitsearch is a good indexer for finding torrents from across multiple sites, but check the source as best you can, and then use a VPN and scan the files after.

You can also search in qbittorrent with the search plugin, it'll be easier to see the sources from there.

Early to mid 2000's, I earned one quarter each time I cleaned the cat box. Kept tallies on a chart and was paid monthly. Eventually I decided it wasn't worth it. My parents disagreed.

I read about that somewhere, I'll check it out, thanks! Can I access the homebrew character on PC as well?

Piracy is more about preserving knowledge than sharing knowledge, after all, torrents are not really accessible for the majority of people. There's a tech barrier plus in most places you want a VPN. Then you need decent bandwidth and a reliable connection. Private Trackers are all about preserving media. Maintaining healthy seeds is important, especially when it comes to media that is very niche or no longer in circulation, "legally". Sites come and go, especially public trackers. Seeders also come and go. Private trackers last a lot longer, and have more dedicated seeders. It's difficult and time consuming to be a dedicated seeder, and it's much more rewarding to host your files on a private tracker than a public one.

But you'll definitely want OneDrive, Teams, Edge, Chrome, Adobe and your totally necessary "anti-virus" to run in the background 24/7 right?

They seem to cut out chunks of ~5000 homes and then choose one home to represent that group. Pretty dumb imo, but they say when you look at it big-picture it's more accurate. If I said no they would just randomly pick another home in my area. I think they do use ethnic demographics in selecting their groups, but they don't look into who actually lives in the home they pick. They state they don't know anything more than what we happen to be watching, and they can only use data that's linked to some kind of service like Netflix or YT-TV. As far as who's watching, they get your ethnicity, age range and sex. On their remote you're just 'Person 1' or 'Person 2', etc.

I didn't update the app and all my installed extensions work fine. What's the MO for now? Update and re-add the extensions or just chill?

So for me it's got a red dragon icon, but I believe we have the same app. I wanted to use this one initially, but it was missing Drow, then I looked in the settings and found I could download a bunch of d&d info and Drow is an option! I think this might be what I use for Android!

I personally use GL.iNet routers. Basically you create VPN tunnels between a WG(WireGuard) server hosted on one router, and WG clients hosted on another GL.iNet router or a device that supports the WG app (PC and mobile afaik). The router using the WG server is facing WAN so no need to port forward and you can use it to connect to your jellyfin server as well as RDP or SSH into your server. The WG clients are simple, just need to be connected to the Internet. The tunnels bandwidth is based on your ISP's upload speed(fiber is great, with coax good luck streaming 4k) where the WG server is located. You can use WG without the router too, but I'll just speak to my experience.

Edit: YT link to intro for the routers - https://youtu.be/LXbDg1v65Qs?feature=shared

https://www.themoviedb.org/ over IMDb when I want movie info.

https://fmhy.net/ when I feel like borrowing some media from my neighbor on the internet.

Bandcamp when I want to find new artists to listen to.

Transfer.zip if I need to send some files to someone quickly and securely. Alternatively there is also blaze.vercel.app.

And of course, tza.red to play an online version of Tzar: Burden of the Crown, one of the best RTS games. There is also an app for Windows.

This is because traditionally the brain is used to focus, but now humans are being trained to outsource thinking for convenience sake.

Check out r/NewMaxx by u/NewMaxx on Reddit. That subreddit is focused on SSD news and a great source for it, but the articles linked on the sub are generally good sites for tech news in general.

Ya there's a multitude of options across various platforms, if someone is still using vanilla YouTube it's their own fault.

Thanks for this! Our DM might want us to print everything out as some of the players might be distracted by their phones lol. If it works well with Adobe I'm guessing it will be easy to print.

I did see an app called Roll20, didn't have what I needed, but I'll check out the site, thanks!

JellyFin is a great media streaming app (fork of Plex), and has an android TV app. Also for anime there's aniyomi.
