not called Brad but rather a lad, from Bradford in the UK.
Enjoys breaking apps, escooters, spam rings and sometimes bones, but not my own. That sucks.
This reminds me of some peeps saying using Newpipe is “(app) piracy”. I wholly disagree with them to this day.
If a website, which YouTube.com is and allows a client to connect and use its services it isn’t, piracy per se.
Much like because I have a UK IP address I can hit up get_iplayer and use that service which IMO should be the norm.
e: apologies for not been helpful, I’m just ranting.
Gravity was spot on that day
tldr: You need to learn instead of sucking blood and/or being a bot
Aye, I’ve seen this misconception before and suspect it’s specific countries in the European continent where you have to register.
I don’t know if you’re in the UK right now but I can tell you right now that I can go round the corner and buy a SIM card in cash plus a top-up voucher, from someone like this guy

No you don’t.
I can go to the corner shop/local garage right now, buy a SIM card for 99p and then buy a top-up voucher in cash to have a completely anonymous phone number.
Albeit is the UK in Europe again? 🙈
edit: where I would be worried if my privacy was on the line is I could also go to the local pawn shop / Cash Converters to ensure that SIM card isn’t associated with an IMEI I’ve previously used and buy in cash a cheapo phone.
Goddamit, I got looking for a couple of the pubs I’ve been to down your end and ended up with the above.

Seems about right 👌
e: linky
I’ve been using this moniker for a long time and lad is a bit of a non truthy thing now 😇
Where ya from?
Definitely a fair point and I imagine it varies highly between industries/companies. I just get to see lots of redundant actions that are simply, redundant, just like the perps in the OP :(
Us and Them
No doubt - there are many of these workers in the Office but I’m also seeing many stragglers doing fuck all and also delegating jobs out that they’re themselves fully capable of doing but instead of walking 100 yards sending an email + WhatsApp.
While I don’t use WhatsApp things get cycled down other channels and it annoys me no end. I’m a busy person 80% of the time but because these leeches can’t organise their weekdays they then try their best to offload their, work.
Moar deep grumbly noises.
The music industry needs to die off already.
You know what I find it akin to in the industry I work in and I know this gonna cause some controversy - but the 9-5 Mon-Fri managers we have at work.
I work something called Continental shifts which are basically days/nights/days/nights on a A/B/C/D rota throughout the space of a month.
What I find telling is we run absolutely fine on weekend days and all our night shifts but, we have these what I’m going to call leeches (but the controversial term is…Office Drones) just like the copyright fuckwads illustrated here that suddenly appear throughout the week and are a general nuisance?
They really don’t do anything I can see that benefits the company/industry other than sending emails etc for others to send them a report that’s readily available/start bullshit investigation etc.
They make me grumble these leeches :/
I almost just want a cheap piece of crap dumb phone
Looked into a KaiOS device? Not entirely dumb, GMaps is only the web version so no voice navigation etc.
But might be something of interest to ya?
Very true.
I generally just use my ceramic bladed hair cutter on 0 when I’m not required to have a clean, clean shave, and then like I say above just use a BIC when I need a baby’s bum face for work etc.
The twin / triple blades I find can be off-putting to some since if you have too much growth they latch on and snag.
Yeah, we’ve got something I recall being called the P-laws or something brought in, meaning all new sockets need to be a certain height above floor level.
I’ve seen many rented houses here that still have them on the floor since older builds ain’t required to rectify them. Scary if you see all the recent flooding we’ve been having in some parts of the country :/
But those three pin / fused BS 1363 whilst been one of the safest sockets you can get, I can confirm they’re an absolute bastard if you stand on one.
Personally, I never learned how to use a razor
🤔
Alright. Ima be ur daddy and tell you have to shave in 3 minutes flat.
Acquire some BIC single blade razors
Head to shower, put it on steaming hot and apply steaming hot water to face. Getting a hot towel after getting out of the shower and leaving it on your face for a while makes a tough shave even moar comfortable.
Lather shaving foam all over face
Run BIC razor under cold running water and shave until your face is like a baby’s bum
Rinse thoroughly with cold water to remove all lather
As a Britbong, I’m always proud of not only BS1363 and the safety it has brung us over the years but the fact that I know that number off the top of my head.
I usually have a goldfish memory for things like that.
Ah I see, that’s pretty cool. Suppose it’s just the look of their website that reminded me of a knock off site or something.
While I’ve used ClamAV and knew they had a Windows app as well as other platforms I’ve never heard of the above website, and it smells funny to me.
https://www.clamav.net/downloads
ClamAV has been around for years, and I’d throw caution to the wind with the above Windows executable from ClamWin…

Just had a nosey, that DSM 923 (Vs 423) doesn’t have a discreet GPU.
What rules are you putting on your downloads from the arrr’s, and do you find some struggle to transcode w/ Jellyfin?
I’ve had to lower the rules since it got silly trying to transcode 80GB+ files over the puny specs of the DSMs > N100 SFF box I’m testing with, and use them solely for NAS / arrrrrs. I still need to invest a little more I think :/
That’s what I’ve been curious about, but even still on a DSM 223 & 418 I’ve found them alright to an extent running Radarr/Sonarr/Transmission.
I did however run into problems trying to use them via Container Manager aka Docker on the DSM’s.
Jellyfin thou is definitely best run on something that can transcode media and the DSM’s are definitely not cut out for that, and if your Windows PC has an Intel processor will see you having less issues. Good luck you ;)
The French are very defendant when it comes to VLC or other open sauce apps. I’d usually bring the Willy joke out but I’m with them on this one.
