Guessing they used Sonarr, Radarr, qBittorrent, maybe an NZB client....

Would you look at that, I'm sophisticated now.

Not sure when exactly it started, but the MLMYM instance here seems to be "read only", for lack of a better term. Attempts to comment, post, or even vote on content do not work. I can still log in and out normally, still view subscribed content, but nothing else works. Not sure what's going on.

90% of the time it's bigots who are upset that they're getting deplatformed. The other 10% of the time it's the incredibly idealistic or naive. Either way it's a crap argument. You are under no obligation to endure verbal diarrhea, nor is it your responsibility to change the minds of the people spewing it. They shit the bed, they can lie in it.

A few days ago SDF's lemmy instance went down entirely, taking the MLMYM instance with it. Lemmy's back, but MLMYM isn't. Is something more nefarious afoot?

The original DVD release of the Mystery Science Theater 3000 riff of Godzilla vs Megalon. MST3K licensed the film from a company that did not actually own the rights to it, and only discovered when Toho sent out a cease and desist following the release of MST3K volume 10. Production was stopped, but a few hundred copies were still sold.

Funnily enough some of those copies were actually sold to Blockbuster, who somehow were allowed to keep renting them out even after the C&D went into effect. I made sure to rent a copy ASAP once I found out.

Having bittorrent traffic set to low priority while being online and doing other things can lead to that, especially someone seeding multiple things at once.

Also depending on where they are or how they're connecting their ISP could be throttling them.

Yarr harr fiddle-dee-dee!

There's only one price I'm willing to pay for content with ads, and that's zero.

Weird Al still wholesome after all these years.

This is my headcanon and I cannot be convinced otherwise.

Depends on what counts as "better".

Better quality? WAV, since it's lossless.

Better efficiency? OGG (well, Vorbis) since it compresses pretty well, but you'll still get a (minor) loss in quality.

That said, both of those formats are old news and should only be used if you have weird, specific compatibility needs. For lossy compression, OGG/Vorbis has been succeeded by Opus; it's what YouTube uses, compresses fantastically, and is supported by damn near everything. For lossless, FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) is still the gold standard: you can reduce file sizes by as much as 60% with literally zero loss in quality. If you can, use one of those.

This just feels like a repeat of Rural Electrification: yeah it's expensive and not immediately profitable, but we're at the point where it's necessary to be a part of modern society.

I'll be blunt: the fact that they're opposing it makes me even more supportive of it.
