PBS FTW, been digging their stuff since I was a toddler watching Sesame Street lol. Their PBS Eons channel (on YT…) is great, when I was watching more video content I enjoyed their streaming service for a range of stuff too, can’t remember what it was called now though.

So yeah give em some bucks folks and watch cool stuff, they really need it.

Ah, but yet…

Woof, that’s hilarious and annoying. Food service from what I understand has super thin margins - things like fountain drink sodas (and alcohol sales at other spots) do a lot of the work on keeping the place economically viable. Not excusing that guy’s pettiness but if you see weird behavior around a specific ingredient or item, it’s probably something along those lines.

I think it’s probably being in the age range that kinda straddled the time between now - when it’s all an unshakeable piece of daily life - and the time before it existed / was commonplace. Having grown up before all of these world changing tech advances, and then being there for the ride, is just a singular experience and perspective neither our parents or our kids can possibly have.

I’m really grateful for having gotten to take the ride, but it does strike me as sad in a way.

Ah my mistake, thanks very much! Still getting familiar with the “ecosystem” so to speak, been outta the game for a long while.

E: below is wrong, I made a goof

Doesn’t look open to me. I see an application requiring screenshots indicating proof of membership in other private trackers, etc.

Just got mine set up this weekend, really works a treat! Utterly painless. Even put the client on the Roku I apparently don’t own, hope the pricks somehow notice lol

Hey thanks! I probably wouldn’t have gone and checked again without your comment, was having all kinds of trouble. Looks good now.

Edit: Hmm, spoke too soon, still seeing that sometimes. But at least now subsequent attempts work, I’m not getting credentials rejection in addition to that (although…I think that part may have been my fault, looking back…embarrassing lol).

No u - go learn.

This is exactly right, and thanks for saying it. The assumption that poor people don’t understand money is just so completely incorrect, and frankly damaging. Poor folks understand money (and specifically, what it can and can’t do) better than anyone else on this earth.

Hey - I don’t usually do this, but I grew up poor and I get it. DM me, I’ll buy you the game.

How long have you spent with this? I ask because it’s frankly an impressive amount of detail and understanding you’re displaying, given your statement that you’d never administered an OS without a desktop environment. Kudos!

Received, thanks!

I’d like an invite please.

Are you familiar with iFixit? They provide a ton of technical manuals from what I’ve heard, but I haven’t personally used them. Also be aware of library.kiwix.org - they’re a Swiss charity that provides archival downloads of knowledge bases, including iFixit. They might have more resources that you’d be interested in too.

Well spill the beans ya old goat, which two games?!
