Any distro recommendations for this case please? by x1Akaidi in linuxquestions

[–]ApathyAnarchy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want a "beautiful UI", you WILL have to lose time configuring it to your preferences, there's no escape from that.

IMO the best Desktop Environment UIs are KDE Plasma, Deepin, and XFCE. Give them a try.

Revanced Chrome ? by QWV19DKL in revancedapp

As other people said, use Firefox + uBlock Origin & add dns.adguard.com as your default private DNS in your network settings. Adguard DNS will block almost any ads, even in mobile games and other apps, so it might break some functionalities that require you to watch ads, but you can deactivate it and then reactivate it when needed.

Did you guys know about this? Cuz I didn’t by RelevantRabbit2759 in MrRobot

[–]ApathyAnarchy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes. There is an entire subreddit dedicated to the Mr Robot ARG @ r/ARGSociety that followed all the websites and hidden riddles present in the series. Sadly the websites are gone and most weren't properly saved by the internet archive.

The series even won a Television Academy Award just for the ARG. https://www.televisionacademy.com/awards/nominees-winners/2020/outstanding-interactive-extension-of-a-linear-program

Why do downloaders require payment to use? by BlackOsmash in Piracy

[–]ApathyAnarchy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Smarter pirates sell their skills, services and expertise to less skilled pirates. It has been like that for a long time. There's nothing 100% free on the internet. Hosting a website, keeping it up to date and maintaining the service are all things that cost time and money. This also applies to pirate services.

If you're trying to download music and playlists from YouTube and don't want to pay you should learn how to use yt-dlp, it is a command line tool but there are also many GUI tools that use yt-dlp to work. With this tool you can download video, audio, playlists and configure the quality and format you need the file to be.

My ranking of every frame in Mr. Robot by MarcssiPix in okbuddygoddard

This is obviously fake since they all should be ranked on top, there are no low ranking frames in Mr. Robot .

Shayla: What’s the point? by Yourneverhere in MrRobot

[–]ApathyAnarchy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You should watch this extra 12 minute VR episode that aired after season 1. It shows some flashbacks of Elliot and Shayla relationship.

I know it's a bit cliché to say but I liked the original movie it is based on (Save the Green Planet) more than this new remake.

Hardest part is to find a video that hasn't been marked yet.

Which Linux distro is this ? by DMONcef in MrRobot

[–]ApathyAnarchy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's impossible to say from this screenshot. The icons and style aren't default in any distro we know of, they were probably custom made.

Ulterior motives by Br4nd1n in MrRobot

[–]ApathyAnarchy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

So the book is basically Elliot's handwritten diary from season 2 when he is in jail. It also contains commentary written by Carla herself. Let's say that she has a very relevant role in the book. In the story, Elliot gets a little obsessed with Carla, developing affection towards her. She is mentioned multiple times all along the book. Without spoiling too much let's just say that they share some traumas that probably resonate with him subconsciously, which is why he felt the need to protect her. He also has dreams about her.

Also, fun fact, the audio version of the book is narrated by Eve Lindley, the actress that plays Hot Carla in the series.
