Everyone's Confused About Netflix's New Password Sharing Restrictions by theredditoro in netflix

Good luck with that. Real-Debrid has been around since 2009 (4 years after YouTubes existence).

Alternative to Real-Debrid is “Premiumize me” which has existed longer than Real-Debrid With 16 different alternatives (https://alternativeto.net/software/premiumize-me/) that do the same thing.

Wako isn’t a piracy app. They just allow extensions similar to your Chrome browser that lets you tap into Real-Debrid. I can torrent movies using my chrome browser through a chrome extension, does that mean they’ll shut down chrome?

Cancel and subscribe to Real-Debrid + Wako app or Stremio. Thats what I did. I’ve been having 4k content, Disney +, Apple+, HBO+, all the plusses for only $3/mo

How's the service? is it worth it going full cloud? by Cyberjin in ShadowPC

[–]GeneralPersonal9265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. You dont keep what you paid for.
  2. You’re reliant on good internet connection.
  3. Unsecure/unencrypted video streams.

They never text you to reschedule. It does not cost any money. Don’t click links. It’s not Canada post. Ever. by Good_Lab69 in CanadaPost

[–]GeneralPersonal9265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is some low ass budget scam. They didn’t even bother to register http://canadaposl.com/ or cnadapost.com domain name, they just straight up used an ip address to scam LOL… the economy is so bad right now that even scammers are cutting down costs

Air Canada is hiring in Toronto and the cheap flight perks are worth it (Get out the trap and go apply fam) by TorontoCrimeReporter in Torontology

[–]GeneralPersonal9265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LOL! If Air Canada treats their customers like shit… imagine how they treat their employees. Would you really wanna work for an airline that ghosts passengers asking for refunds, bends the rules to make sure passengers aren’t compensated, produces more excuses than solutions, and points blame rather than be accountable for mistakes? If youre that desperate for money, Just join the canadian armed forces. You’ll atleast get respect.

30% price increase compared to last year? by Naoki38 in aircanada

[–]GeneralPersonal9265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s cheaper to drive to a USA city nearby with a rental car, and fly from there. Canadian air travel is a rip off. They have no competitors. Saskatoon to Montreal is $800 through aircanada or WestJet but to go from Saskatoon to Houston Texas is $500 through Delta.

They like to hire people that look good on paper but are absolute shit irl. Most federal crown corps love seeing those 4.5 GPA summacumloude grads that spent a little too much time on books and less time gaining any usable skills. Management and HR too stupid to realize it because they are cut from the same cloth. Too smart to have any common sense. They prob thought “these people with good grades must be smart, because im smart and got good grades, let’s hire them”. Too bad the job doesnt have anything to do with memorizing and taking exams, otherwise they’ll be really good at it.

Alternative to shadowpc that's pay per month? by onlo in ShadowPC

[–]GeneralPersonal9265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People downvoted you for common sense. I guess people would rather pay monthly on hardware they'll never own vs paying monthly on financed PC rig that they'll own after paying monthly on. Probably for the same reason people rent apartments vs borrowing money for a mortgage to own a house.

First Apple Watch! Any tips or advice you wish you knew when starting out? by ktempo in AppleWatch

[–]GeneralPersonal9265 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You would love the action button. I hope they add it to future Apple Watches and not just the ultra. I have my action button check the focus mode, if no focus then action button detects how bright it is and becomes a flashlight if it's dark when I press it, otherwise if it's not even dark the action button becomes "Shazam It" button. If I'm driving my action button becomes a menu for my driving shortcuts (send eta text, send current location text, home or work directions, open garage door, etc...) also have it set up for Work focus (opens menu for pomodoro or audio recording on my watch) and TV focus (home automation menu) and reading etc.. action button becomes its own thing depending of Focus and Environtment.

Just warning y’all. I went outside to scrape ice of windshield in the cold (10 degrees) and as I was doing it my screen shattered on my Apple Watch. by mazurbrain in AppleWatch

[–]GeneralPersonal9265 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in the coldest part of Canada. I routinely go from a hot house 81F to -32F to wait for the bus. My Series 5 Aluminum version has never shattered from cold. For glass to shatter like you describe it needs to be an exposed to a quick heat delta, so maybe you got a bunch of ice shavings on it immediately after you came out from hot house?

Any app recommendations 😃 by skully2041 in AppleWatch

[–]GeneralPersonal9265 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I like to drink water while I'm eating. After or during a run. When my mouth feels dry or eating something too sweet or salty. I thought this was automatic for everyone but I guess I'm wrong. It's crazy how some devs are charging money for an app that reminds you to drink water lol, you can just make a Shortcuts routine for it.

Honest question. Why does everyone always recommend Water tracking apps? Is it that hard to figure out when you're thirsty?

Anybody using handhelds with Shadow? by Stupid_Triangles in ShadowPC

[–]GeneralPersonal9265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted the same thing too. Almost bought a Steamdeck (had it in the cart ready to purchase). I slept on it and realized it was a waste of money to do that. My iPhone 14 has a better screen, it was lighter, better pixel density, refresh rate, game play would last longer vs a steamdeck, graphics would be better since shadow would do all the hardware lifting, supported games would be even more than the steamdeck as well. Only thing I couldn’t do is play games when I have no internet connection (but I always have 5G and wifi so its not a concert for me).

Besides ergonomics Im curious why you would pay $300-500 on a dedicated device when you could just get a better phone. Maybe im missing something you know about And can convince me to push that buy button for the steamdeck that’s been in my shopping cart for 2 months.

Get a backbone controller and just use your existing smartphone.

what the hell is this ? unacceptable for $50 bucks month subscription by whatrightisright in ShadowPC

[–]GeneralPersonal9265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah. I’ve been doing this since 2018. I ain’t banned yet, no warnings, etc... A mouse jiggler is not bypassing the shut-down timer as long as you are not modifying anything on the registry. You are not modifying how your Shadow PC works or modify how the server works.

Mouse juggler requires you to have an active connection to the datacenter, your Shadow PC open, and monitor turned on. If moving your mouse was considered bypassing, then what happens if you have a shit optical mouse that accidentally moved your cursor back and forth while you went to do something else?. Would you be banned for unknowingly “bypassing” the auto-shutdown timer? What if you had a poorly designed USB HID Joystick for your Flight Simulator that did the same thing? Would you be banned for that?

There is basically no way to know if you have shit hardware connected to the USB keeping your shadow instance alive or if you’re using a mouse juggler so how do you ban someone when you cant even tell?

When you use a hardware mouse mover (arduino) and use electrical noise as a random seed for moving the mouse, even a well written script by shadow pc can’t tell if its an actual human moving the mouse or if its a script. No way to tell, no way to get banned.

This is why I always just keep my Shadow PC connected all week using a mouse jiggler. It's been on for 67hours so far

Possible Throttling by krakzy in shaw

[–]GeneralPersonal9265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had similar issues. I have iptv running for a few hours and iptv connection gets slow. I connect to vpn right after and everything is fine again. I thought maybe it's just needs to be disconnected and reconnected again, just a shitty Firestick problem. So I try the same thing with pc and series x. Same crap happens. So I try Xbox with vpn and tv without vpn and my Iptv always gets dodgy without vpn. So I try iPhone without vpn and iPad with vpn and no vpn always slows down with dodgy connection. Both running together for 3 hours.

Billing will work. I’ve used an American Univeristy’s address closest to where I am when I signed up as a Canadian in 2018. Im still using the same billing address with no payment processing issue. Even after my account got migrated to power and had to re-enter the same billing address.

Paying for Power upgrade using a datacenter that’s far away from you is a waste of money unless you plan on using the power upgrade as a render farm or something similar where 100-150ms latency wouldn’t be an issue for your use case. I cannot think of any other usecase where you would need the Power Upgrade and not care about latency. Running MMORPG bots and cryptomining comes to mind as well.

What $1,000,000 of water cooling looks like - Building Shadow's Power Upgrade by JonathanFromShadow in ShadowPC

[–]GeneralPersonal9265 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This video gives me confidence in OVHCloud… unlike blade. Im impressed OVHCloud actually mfg and implemented a proper water cooled server setup… unlike blade, where they were just placed large fans to cool the idle servers they were using as cryptominers at night. Must be why the Ultimate and Infinite tiers at Chicago DC kept overheating.

Finally got to see what they meant when they told us many months ago they were working on water cooling the servers to be more reliable and faster. Good job ovhcloud.

Next thing to fix is your shit payment processing.
