    Very true; it is very hard to come find any content minus a few major movies. *.bg used to have a good selection. Missing my Scandinavian and German shows. They have a dark sense of humor and produce good content.

    Found invite; was misinformed about site. It is torrent only and I don't have the shows or applications to share. If anyone knows of a Scandinavia indexer please let me know. Thanks!

    [Question] Ninjacentral

    Is anyone on this indexer? It seems obscure compared to most invite requests. Is it worth the cost, it seems to be pricey compared to others. Invites always welcome but not requesting.

    It's a place that is haunted. Hurt by the past. Small communities of friends who are ghosts. They hide obscurified in the noise to talk. Mumblings of a distance past of which they refuse to let go of because there, self hosted, they are beholden to none of this world.

    Usenet Backbone Provider Map

    This map will help you determine which provider you choose for your service. The top tier resells their groups to the providers below on the tree. For best results subscribe to one of the providers in one color; and buy block access from another provider. This will help ensure that the posts that you need to download are complete. It also shows the retention time of each provider; however I have found this to be inaccurate; many of the providers host messages for a much longer timel Important Note: There is an update to the provider map; this is 2022 if someone knows the changes and can edit the .svg file or provide the information it would be greatly appreciated.

    Absolutely! The M2 is already highly capable. An M3 w/ DDR5 and PCIe 5, in addition to their Retina display? Hell yeah! I just use my X1 Carbon as a thin client machine; it really doesn't do any heavy lifting. No lag on Windows or Linux; but I prefer not to have to block all microsoft instances at the router.

    Truely it was aweful. Visually we couldn't see the mountain range from 500ft away. Everyone stayed indoors with the AC on (we are lucky; we have a whole HEPA and several room HEPA units.

    Conversation wise how was your 4th? We had a family gill out and a few beers and a bit of vape. Really relaxing. Had time to work on my project laptop (the Hackintosh; converting a Thinkpad X1 Carbon Gen 7 to be able to triple boot). Did some admin; lowkey.

    I've printed over 12,000 pages on my one brother laser printer! Only had to replace the drum once ($30); and I would buy my off brand toner in a 2 pack for $20! The other brother laser (scanner/fax/self-feeding) is currently at 6,000 pages! That one I've only had to replace the toner a few times. The most expensive thing is the paper but I have a deal with a few stores around here that I'll buy their torn open reams for $1 each.

    Yeah I had an HP and that mf would burn through a $40 cart in about 100 pages. Brother's the boss.

    I've never been an native MacOS users except prior to their Intel and M1/2 series chips. X1 Carbons are just a thing of mine I like; they run linux and Windows just fine; however there is no way to upgrade things really. The T series Thinkpads are great as desktop replacements but are no MacBook replacements. I guess to sum up: if you are in the MacOS linage, stick with MacOS. If you are using Windows, then Thinkpads offer some of the best laptop experiences.

    Close to New York. It was horrible here for a while. Apocalyptic amounts of haze. Yet people were still riding bikes, mowing lawns, running, and so on. Air quality index was over 300 for a bit.

    From what I've gathered certain really illegal content was being created and uploaded; and paid for using crypto. It really is a harsh shame to people who have obscure files or services and have been using the service for more than 5 years. I think they should reevaluate their policy and allow registered non-crypto accounts to have access to it after a certain period of time. Simply removing the feature is unacceptable; I put my trust in IVPN after much research. I'm concerned about how the other providers will handle the windfall of new users signing up for the feature and if they will keep it active.

    My advice. Call a local electrician or small business networking company; get some quotes for what you are looking for. Have 2 cables run from the network interface box to where your router/firewall is in addition to a second location in case you ever need to expand the network setup in you home. The cost is well worth not worrying about pulling cables. Install CAT6 boxes in almost every room you foresee a cable ever being run. Good luck! I recently rewired my home with CAT6 from the fiber interface box and am now enjoying 900/850mb everywhere in my home.
