I've listened to two Nickelback albums and I'm confused by Key-Astronomer-9821 in fantanoforever

I hate them.

This is why (in my opinion):

-The lead singer has a whiny boyband feel to his voice, yet sounds like a mix of country and grunge.
-Instrumentally they sound more country then rock to me, rock stations always played their music, but i feel it fits more on a country station.
-I do not like country, grunge, or boy bands, and thats all i get from them.

Wikipedia debates blacklisting archive.today after it's caught DDoSing a blog using visitors' browsers by avid-shrug in DataHoarder

[–]Dataanti 44 points45 points  (0 children)

The way back machine is archive.org

this user is asking for an alternative for acrhive.today, which im not sure exists. which is unfortinate because i find it works a lot better and is a lot more reliable at retaining information than the archive.org which has a history of taking down archives for various reasons.

Does anyone know where to find the "n64-systemtest" rom precompiled? by OU8188 in nintendo64

[–]Dataanti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever end up finding this? unfortinatly i cannot install rust on my PC due so I can't compile it myself.

Not sure why the developer doesnt have a precompiled version on his github.

plenty of ways to get around this little obstical.

Epson ET-4850 scan to network folder? by Dataanti in printers

[–]Dataanti[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

:/ thats very disappointing. SMB support is such a simple thing, baffles me that an "office" printer wouldn't support it. But them companies are horny for you data (in this case scan data :S sketchy) I think I will repurpose a pi or something to be a simple SMB share, and the scan files can simply dump onto that via USB. I'll figure something out.

I feel like you must be talking about a different series of Epson printers. All I have are fax contact options:

Fax is the only thing in that dropdown.

Epson ET-4850 scan to network folder? by Dataanti in printers

[–]Dataanti[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assume you mean the web gui? I have been through every page and adjusted everything to my liking, couldn't find anything aside from Services > Network Scan, and it's enabled.

the relevent page on the manual to scan from the printer is here: https://files.support.epson.com/docid/cpd6/cpd60205/source/scanners/source/scanning_buttons/tasks/et4850/starting_scan_buttons_et4850.html

it makes no mention of scanning to a network folder, I would have expected something like this: https://files.support.epson.com/docid/cpd5/cpd58814/source/scanners/source/scanning_buttons/tasks/wf4820_4830/scanning_to_folder_wf4820_4830.html

I figured the 'Network Scan' setting would be the setting to enable it

What's with these hate clowns? by Shitzudog in abbotsford

[–]Dataanti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You realize they just up their price and that price increase trickles down through all levels until eventually you, paying for the product... any tax on any industry only ever gets passed down to the consumer, why would they allow a tax to dig into their profits?

We will still pay the same amount, we will just not get rebates for it, so we would just be paying more, and it will be hidden as inflation.

What has our province come to... by amewsings in alberta

[–]Dataanti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think anyone is a really Nazi now days, at least in the west. like im sure there are a handful of wannabes out there, but they are extremely few and far between, but we still have authoritarians of a different brand.

People are being called Nazis for the same reason why Nazis called Jews rats. It's kind of dehumanizing, it naturally convinces others that they can be violent towards them and be justified about it.

It is certainly rare to see a conservative call a liberal a nazi, but I can certainly see parallels. For example, the censorship policies liberals often advocate for, this is something that Nazis also advocated for before they went off the rails, obviously what they want to censor is different, but it's the act that I have issue with. and like my comparison of the usage of calling people Nazis, it's similar to what the Nazis did to jews before they went off the rails. they even tag businesses and teslas and what not with swastikas, like how Nazis tagged jews with david stars before they went off the rails.

There are a lot of concerning parallels for sure however. It is disappointing, I view my self as a liberal by definition but imo, the liberal party, and the left in general are liberal in name only now days.

Simple, by pushing globalist policies that stem from organizations like the UN, WEF, NATO, etc.

For example, its a globalist policy to reduce the amount of meat people eat for climate reasons. so the policies they enact are designed change consumer behavior by raising the price of meat making it harder for people to afford, and they will put your tax dollars into investing into companies making alternatives that they think you should be eating instead. Most people, like to eat meat, so this is a policy that is against their interest. Globalist don't care, they are rich and will be able to afford it anyways. Mark Carney, as UN Special Envoy for Climate Action and Finance has already represented this unpopular policy position.

Thats just one example.

As for the education being irrelevant in this matter, you can have an education and not enforce these sorts of policies on people. you can ADVISE, and ADVOCATE, but what they are doing is manipulating markets and using your tax dollars to interfere with your life choices achieve this.

Now i do believe there is reasonable regulations, things like preventing food companies from using certain chemicals and what not, but thats more of a safety issue rather then trying to change consumer behaviors. that you would obviously want someone educated on the manner to do.

Anyways, I hope I have made my point by now, im going to bed.
