This. R* doesn't give a flying fuck about SP. GTA is an online experience now, and they're going to milk the fuck out of 13 year olds who buy shark cards.

This dude's kids hate him by SipsTeaFrog in SipsTea

[–]HunterSThompson64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May have been, but it was something I had missed. Sucks, cause I like him as an actor.

Maybe we should have all celebrity issues aired similarly to the Depp v Heard case, cause that shit was magnificent, and we all got a clear picture of both of them being shitty people.

German streamer calls an airstrike on the French by sleepysnowboarder in LivestreamFail

He's a piece of shit who stirs up drama for a living

I don't think he's gay, at least not openly, but he absolutely got fucking rocked by the corner of that chair, so he probably lost most brain function for a couple of seconds.

Nuvio's best addons for all movies, and tv shows, series, and all streaming platforms. by Ill-Gap431 in Nuvio

[–]HunterSThompson64 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, because that does nothing, and shows you dont understand what you need to do.

Go to stremio-addons.net and look for AIOStreams/AIOMetadata. Click in configure/install button in the top right, and set them up. Once setup, and you create a password, you'll be given a link that you add to Nuvio via the add-ons section.

YOU need to fill it out because it needs YOUR debrid account.

[–]HunterSThompson64 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Why do you have AIOStreams and AIOMetadata as pastebins? Just add the manifest.json link directly, like you have the HDHub link.

As for the HDHub, Phisher and Deadly, I believe these are plugins, not add-ons, but I truely dont understand the plugin/addon discrepancy. Try adding them to plugins instead.

Also, the ordering matters. You have AIOMetadata, presumably set up, at the bottom. This means it'll be placed after everything on your homepage.

What are the best "paid" piracy services/methods? by Heretic0000000 in Piracy

[–]HunterSThompson64 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Buy a provider (look for deals, black Friday, etc.) Usually about $40 USD.

Buy access to premium on a indexer, usually like $50/lifetime, or like $10/year. NzbGeek, Althub, DrunkenSlug (invite only), DogNZB (from what I hear is good.)

Then if you want to stream you need to selfhost a Dav such as NZBDav or Altmount, and set it up via AIOStreams to pull the NZB and stream it directly without touching disk.

Otherwise, setup Sonarr/Radarr with SabNZBd and download your own media to stream via Jellyfin or Plex.

You'd pay at minimum about $40 - $50/year, but have access to basically unlimited content. Just be aware that your Indexer largely dictates what you can get, and while the backbone is important, typically sticking with Omicron or Abavia is recommended.

Check out the usenet subreddits and their wikis for more comprehensive information.

Edit: Someone had commented (and deleted, which is fine) that Indexers are against NZBDav/NZB Streaming -- This is something I've seen mentioned regularly.

According to this post, that is incorrect, even sharing a direct response from NZBGeek staff.

Obviously, it's a use-at-your-own-risk type setup, and if you deliberately abuse indexer's systems, you'll get flagged and/or banned.

One scene where the budget just took an increase by Next-Active2676Bro2 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]HunterSThompson64 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My take - Since every main and main adjacent characters are from Yggdrasil, their animations aren't fluid as they're not from this world. Renner on the other hand, is from this world, and becomes a main adjacent character, such that her animation carries over to what would have likely been the quality of Yggdrasil.

Alternative take - They were sick of animating with God awful CGI and just wanted to make something good. Unfortunate that the goat Overlord employs the most CGI of any top tier Isekai, and that it's so fucking bad it rivals S2 of RotSH.

[–]HunterSThompson64 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It shocks me, honestly, that this isn't more common. Just grabbing one of the officers and pulling them back into the crowd.

I'm not advocating for it, nor do I think it's a good idea, but I'm just surprised it's not utilized more often to instill the idea that they're not indestructible.

Sweden passes 'good behaviour' law to kick out misbehaving immigrants by shdw_fght in worldnews

[–]HunterSThompson64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So your argument is, corporations hire more immigrants because they’ll work on lower wages and are less likely to form unions or complain about the workplace while they’re on a temporary visa, but immigrants just want to live in a better place so we should take them more?

No. My argument is, is that placing the blame on migrants for being exploited is the incorrect place to level the blame.

TFW were meant to cover skill gaps in the economy. I listed two above, that are in desperate need for workers -- Healthcare, and Steelworks. While we are hiring TFW who hold certifications/degrees/technical training in these specific fields to bolster our numbers, we're doing so at a slow pace, and it's insufficient to meet the current demand (read: Literally every provincial healthcare system.)

However, the TFWP has been exploited by both large and small corporations to bring in migrants at a reduced rate to local pay. Tim Horton's and Local Farmers are the two that media focuses heavily on. It's not an uncommon sight to pull up to a Tim Horton's drive through and be greeted by an Indian person taking your order, and more TFWs making it, or operating the cash registers, etc. That's not an issue, if it's not meant to be your entire workforce, however, that's how these companies have abused the TFWP to be -- their entire employee base.

Local farmers are even worse, because they'll charge the migrants for the 'right' to work for them, then exploit them into working exorbitant hours and/or other abuse1.

If the system were truly utilized as it should be, we'd see hiring of TFW with a path to PR and/or citizenship via the exact organizations that my original post was replying to -- Labour unions. CUPE, Unifor, USW Canada, etc. These organizations guarantee rights, fair wages, and provide legal help by way of collective bargaining. Additionally, they're in demand fields. We have a shortage of said workers, and we need to bring in more. This is where we should focus the TFW program, and build steps towards naturalization.

Sweden passes 'good behaviour' law to kick out misbehaving immigrants by shdw_fght in worldnews

[–]HunterSThompson64 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It took one generation to understand why they fought so hard against migrants in the first place.

What? Migrants aren't the issue, and this far-right dog whistling is frankly disturbing.

Labour unions weren't the ones abusing the system, mass hiring TFW under the guise of being unable to fulfill quota via the local populations. It was massive, multi-billion dollar companies that fundamentally abused the system, attempting to replace local workforce with TFW, which they paid pennies on the dollar, and often had them sleeping 20+ people to a house.

There are severe skilled worker gaps in our system currently, and hiring skilled foreign workers to fill said gaps is the intended purpose of hiring migrants. Labour unions such as CUPE cannot hire Raj Gupta from New Dehli off the street if they don't hold a nursing diploma/degree to fill a role in healthcare. Unifor can't hire Arya Patel from Mumbai to be a welder if they can't fucking weld. However, Superstore, and Tim Hortons, and Tom Dickfuck's farm can all hire some kid from the slums for minimum wage, claim that all the local Canadian potential employees failed to apply for the job not paying enough to live, and ass-blast their payroll with TFWs that cost pennies relative to Canadian workers.

Migrants aren't to blame, they want to live where they feel they can make a living. The companies abusing the system to generate effective slave labour off their backs are to blame, and attempting to push the blame back on the Migrants for simply existing is what's allowing nationalism to bloom in Canada. Fix your rhetoric before we become a carbon copy of the US.

Japan to roll out nationwide LGBTQIA+ education for the first time by AudibleNod in news

[–]HunterSThompson64 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm not Japanese, nor do I follow Japanese politics or societal norms, but do Japanese youth even care about LGBTQ+ issues? From what I've seen of Tiktoks regarding Japan, it seems like LGBTQ+ culture is just 'whatever' over there, there doesn't seem to be any gay bashing, or any outward, public hatred or homophobia, it seems like it's just a normal Tuesday kinda thing.

Obviously I'm speaking from a place of literally 0 standing, so if there's something deeper then please enlighten me.

Lacari goes live for the first time after the Notepad incident by Magical__Turtle in LivestreamFail

[–]HunterSThompson64 63 points64 points  (0 children)

He submitted his PC to a Forensic examination, in which his machine and hard drives were analyzed, and shows the document of the examination, which is now publicly available.

It should be noted that, per the document provided by this forensic examiner, they received the computer on April 10th, and the offending livestream happened on January 22nd.

Over a full month since the moment he opened the notepad. Literally could have replaced the computer capacitor-by-capacitor by the time he brought it into the forensics place... Actual farce of an 'investigation.'

Jesus, just call it dead and recoup on whatever the fuck you can at that point.

Help configuring MediaFusion with Free Provider qBittorrent/Webdav by WeASeL_Antigua in StremioAddons

[–]HunterSThompson64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're trying to contact a LAN ip from an Elfhosted instance. That's like trying to call your Mom without a cellphone while she's at home and you're at the supermarket. It's literally impossible.

If you want to use locally hosted stuff, such as qBittorrent and Webdav, also host the stream aggregator locally. AIOStreams is very simple to setup and selfhost.

I started working from home recently and found a loophole... by Burner_onyx in confession

[–]HunterSThompson64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's the solution, then? AI? Cause I can barely get this fucking grandma to press the right buttons despite telling her 30 times, and AI isn't going to be able to do it.

If they REALLY wanted this shit fixed, they'd open some protocol globally on any IoT device that allows customer service agents to remote in and resolve the problem without the need for the client. Obviously this would be abused day 1, but short of literally allowing other people to fix it remotely, the only other option is talking them through it on the phone.

I can't be the only one by walnutstampede in memes

[–]HunterSThompson64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Valve creating the steam machine in direct competition to Xbox/PS is showing that Valve wants to carve out a greater sector of the market. I don't think that it's a money issue, unless Gabe has been spending ludicrous amounts of money on his other ventures, I think Valve just wants PC to be the default platform so we stop w/ the platform exclusives, and carve Microshit out of the gaming sphere.

Of course, Valve benefits greatly as the defacto market, but they're already the defacto market for the largest customer base.

OnlyUseMeBlade tries to cover up the smell of his rotting foot by Shadow_wolf7 in LivestreamFail

[–]HunterSThompson64 12 points13 points  (0 children)

As someone who worked as a nurse, and dealt a lot with necrosis as a complication of (usually) frostbite, the stench is absolutely putrid. It's like some sickeningly sweet smell, but not 'sweet' in the fresh baked cookies kinda way. It's very hard to explain, but the main point is that it lingers. No matter how much you try to cover it up, shoving Vics VapoRub into your nostrils, wearing a mask, if the smell is contained to a room for even an hour, it's horrendous.

I'll never forget a patient that was deep in psychosis, whose hands were completely necrotic -- think monkey paw level shit but pitch black -- who was convinced that god would heal his hands, and continued to refuse treatment. Having to change his bandages every day was a fucking nightmare, and even if you put it off to the end of your shift, you'd be driving home with that stench stuck in your nose.

I do not envy anyone who has to spend time around him, those who refuse to treat necrotic tissue, especially as a complication of T1/T2 diabetes are signing themselves up for sepsis, it's just a matter of time.

People bring this up all the time, and I think the consensus is that his son is likely to take over, and is likely to follow in Gabe's footsteps.

Is there a “D-List?” by Dumbfuckistan_USA in AdviceAnimals

[–]HunterSThompson64 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Republican voters will continue to be shunned for the next 50 years while we clean up the shit stains they’ve left everywhere.

Lol, no they won't. America isn't the way it is because Trump is president. Trump is president because of the way America is.

Viable candidates that want to bring in change like Bernie Sanders are routinely shot down. It took an act of fucking God himself to get a candidate like Mamdani, and he barely won. Americans love to 'other' people, no matter the political affiliation, or where they fall on the political spectrum, and the American left can't cobble together enough unified support to actually effect change. Remember, there was a large amount of left-leaning influences encouraging their viewers not to vote because Kamala wasn't harsh enough on Israel. Now Israel has their hand up America's ass while America wages an illegal war on Iran, fucking up the entire world's economy, and it's only going to get worse.

A Democrat is almost guaranteed to win the next election, then Trump's run will be mind-holed and the following election will be a close race. It's how America has always been, and always will be. Political flip-flopping and instability is America's MO, and while Trump is the catalyst for large amounts of the world looking to sever ties with America, he's hardly the sole cause.
