Yeah I use foobar and it works fine, but it still sucks and still affects us that the culture is streaming based. It’s better when your habits aren’t niche and you’re not always fighting against the norm.

Before you comment I’m begging you to take the parent comment in the general spirit of digital “ownership” having taken over the culture and not point out that Winamp technically still exists.

We gave up Winamp for this.

I also went through the phase where I thought I was an audiophile/videophile and everything I collected needed to be in ultra high quality. Eventually I realized it was stupid and now I spend a third as much money on storage and still have perfectly fine media that I have no issues with in practice despite the flaws I’m supposed to see in theory.

you’ll do nothing but bloat the file size

That’s very wrong. Going from h.264 to h.265 cuts file size down to 25-50% of the original. That’s what the HE is for in HEVC.

“Kids don’t want good shows, they want slop TV they can put on in the background while they’re on their phones”, says Netflix.

No it isn’t. It’s removing a batch script they used to provide as a shortcut to invoke the functionality. Until now they’ve been handholding people to streamline use of their less preferred feature and they’re no longer doing that. But by all means take the headline ragebait.

Yes, you can run the web server locally and access it in your browser like any other site. You just wouldn’t be able to access it from outside your home network.

June 2025 is when manifest v2 is supposed to die for good. I think the issue is that it’s not really possible for Vivaldi or Microsoft or whoever to keep the code in there long term even if they wanted to.

I’m saying when I saved this image, I saw the context surrounding these. This was meant at face value.

If she can’t figure out how to find and watch something straight up there’s no way she’s figuring out usenet.

Sadly no, just another right wing bluecheck dick-riding grok.

I have, yeah. From the context around these tweets she hadn’t seen it and was curious about watching it.

Maybe. It’s stupidity all the way down.

Why would they check for piracy when it’s not them you’re pirating from and stopping piracy would remove the most popular use case of their product?

No you don’t. I’ve shared with people and I’ve never had a pass.

No shade or anything but how does that work in a single player pretty linear game, what’s the draw after you finish it a few times?
