  • The only thing these companies care about is money. These fines need to have teeth to actually make them change.

    Not to mention that we’ve been living in a business and economic environment where Fortune 500 companies have been getting it easy both ways. They’re able to work with impunity AND they lobby the hell out of governments to leave them alone.

    This money could actually start to swing stuff towards the consumer again, rather than this new world where regular people seem to be fighting against the rich, corporations, and governments all at the same time. Although it could be said that those three entities are one and the same.








  • There are a handful of features that I really like with qbittorrent but there were plugins I can’t find replacements for from Deluge:

    • having items deleted after meeting seeding requirements, as *arr auto imports, but having exceptions for private trackers
    • the above without having the *arr stack have a permanent warning
    • auto adding public default trackers to any public torrent

    I’ve switched back and forth a few times and I run them side by side but let deluge take the reins of most of it because I have it set up to be hands off with the above.

    If anyone knows how I can set up qbt the same way that would be great though


  • “Disney had more or less trained audiences to expect big, hot Pixar content at home,” explained Brandon Katz, an entertainment industry strategist at Parrot Analytics.

    I agree with the point but not necessarily the reason why.

    Pixar movies used to be “can’t miss”. They were a cut above everything else, and incredibly unique. Now they’re just… Disney Pixar. They’ve watered down so much of what made them great before.

    And of course Disney is cutting staff due to lack of box office success without taking an inward look that their imprinting on the company might have something to do with its downfall.
