public tracker I can easily search directly from qbit, also good for newest releases

Pahe for DDL stuff, if I want better X265 quality at small size (PSA used to be good, but they fucked up something and I can't play their X265 rips anymore on TV, X265 Pahe rips always work)

ain't gonna pay for usenet or getting invited to private tracker

I dunno man, I just entered "c h u d 1984" into qbit search and immediately got 1.6GB 1080p YTS rip result, even some integral cut

but yeah 1337x search plugin seems broken, not getting any results for few days, everything I get is from bt4gprx.com and torlock plugins, even torrentgalaxy plugin seems not work

what's the point of SSD for archival purposes? seem like less safe option than HDD and speed is not really issue for long term archiving or watching TV shows/movies, I don't really see point in SSD besides running OS/apps

I don't really care about the site, but their releases were fast and had consistent X265 quality, nothing new matches them

Pahe is quite fast, PSA recently did something to their encoding and often/mostly can't play them anymore on my TV, they worked fine up until last year, not sure what they messed up, at least with pahe X265 I have guarantee it will work

The evil is always in details, thats why with their Incandescent light bulb ban, these are now sold as heating devices/lamps, so much for their bans/rules. That's why I pointed out commercially available tools can be at same time specialized tools, they should rather mention something like it must be tools owned by 50% households according stats and do simple survey about screwdrivers.

[-] Markoff@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

with the use of commercially available tools and without requiring the use of specialised tools

It's contradictory, what about commercially available specialized tools? Who defines what's specialized and not?

[-] Markoff@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

I mean pretty much all batteries even now are user replaceable, it just depends on skill of the user, but I know they mention EASILY replacable, so I am very curious about their definition of "easily" since it means something different for everyone.

Technology on beehaw has almost 20k subscrubers

strange, it's showing me here 1609 subscribers here through kbin, or what I see are kbin users subscribed to technology on beehaw while you quote directly beehaw users?

[-] Markoff@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

it's fragmentated but that's how federation works

I would see solution in third party app where you subscribe to communities and if they share same name like Technology then app will merge them together and also remove duplicate posts

Squabbles has unrestricted sign up, but from what I see it's becoming Reddit very fast, just same intolerant hivemind already calling for downvotes so they can downvote inconvenient opinions despite they are presented in civil way and don't break rules, so might as well stay on Reddit for same experience

Honor 10 with some old Lineage Android 8.1, wife has Xiaomi Mix 2s running some old Xiaomi.eu

couldn't be bothered to upgrade to newer one, it's available for wife's one, but there is no point, if it wouldn't improve her life at all, as for me I would need to go to EMUI to have slightly newer Android but I will rather have clean Android, anyway looking for years for replacement compact phone with decent camera, currently Xiaomi 12 seems like best option for 400EUR
