Bitwarden for me too. Small price to pay. Signal is another and tend to chuck a few euros to lots of small freeware developers if I use their software often.

Lost - seriously fuck that show Prison Break Heroes The Walking Dead Dexter

Are the first to spring to mind…

Around Black Friday time they have had sales and you get both for a year for around 20€ so the lifetime subscription doesn’t look so much of an attractive deal.

Germany calling. Shot internet here. On my village (close to Ulm) telecom will give you a maximum 16mb dsl which in reality is around 8 down for 40€ a month.

Installed Starlink and get 150 to 250 down and 30 up for 65 a month.

I wonder how many injuries were caused. That stepping stone game must have broken it’s fair share of shins and teeth…

At work we had lots of old laptops, poor battery life, small hard drives, etc. I cleaned them up and installed pfsense on them and gave them to colleagues as home firewall/kid web filters. Others we popped xp on them and set up mame / emulator to give to their kids.

I use these guys. Been using them for a few years on and off and have friends using the service too:

Private IPTV

Link is my referral code as it will give you some time free I believe and I get a referral bonus.

50+ gamer here and my social circle all game. Wife doesn’t like to use the controller but will sit through and give hints with the puzzles. (We tend to play adventure/puzzle games) My father in law who is 84 still games. There is no age limit. Do what you enjoy and find people who enjoy it with you.

This makes sense. There’s too many streaming services which leads people to piracy. Reducing the number will drive people to the one platform. If you make it easy for people to obtain content the rights holder will get paid.

Not an awful lot I suspect…

I stopped pirating about 10 years ago as it was easier just to pay for the service and stream. Then the providers got greedy; complete segregation of the content not only by platform but also by region. Streaming was no longer easy; you don’t know what platform the show/film is on or if it’s available in your region. So now it back to the high seas for films and TV shows as well as paying for an IP TV service that includes movies and TV on demand as well as live streams.

It all to do with ease of use and accessibility; I mean the music piracy has dropped off a cliff due to Spotify.

Not safe enough it would seem. There’s also rumours of shenanigans with the safety approval sign offs.

I can’t for the life of me understand why anyone would go inside that thing. It’s nothing like the craft Cameron went down in. This looked to be a bare bones metal tube with no seats.
