This artstyle is awesome. What did you ask specifically to get this?

Apple Music broke my offline library the last two times I tried.

Replaced a lot of my explicit music with clean versions and left some of it unavailable to me. Music I had for decades that I legitimately bought on CD and ripped in iTunes was now being shown as “unavailable in your region”, even on the MacBook that I uploaded them from.

I had to wipe my library and luckily had a backup from a year before with most of it but some of it is still lost to this day.

This is one of those images I could’ve been fooled by not being AI.

Think the black and white does the trick to avoid that uncanny shadowing most AI generators do.

I don’t pay for anything YouTube-related but not at all surprised they recommend shit that is irrelevant.

I’m the opposite as you and enjoy metal/rock as well as rap/hip hop. But I am constantly being shown “recommendations” for pop and anything I’ve literally never listened to. Also tons of live performances I just don’t care about.

And what’s funny is there is a way to tell YouTube that you don’t want to see certain videos of non-music stuff, like if I don’t want to see anything from LTT when it’s recommended. But for music? Lol, nope. No such option. It’s so stupid…

It’s funny that would be a thing when it’s been found that even the companies, themselves, like Nintendo, have been caught using pirated versions of their own games for redistribution.

Wonder if those games would get detected for the same reason.

They know how to make a gal feel so special 🥰

That rhetorical question goes out to those who hold the rights. I know Netflix had no control. I just find it weird that studios/etc. felt that was a wise decision.

I was fine with paying for Netflix. Then they started pulling shit off for their own services and I quit when there was nothing but the lame Netflix originals and some old shit I don’t watch anymore. One of the things that put me over the edge was when they would do things like put a sequel up but not the original.

How the fuck do you expect me to just jump into The Two Towers and not expect me to want to watch The Fellowship of the Ring first?! Oh you think I’m going to go buy/rent the first movie 😂 that’s cute.

No, I’ll just go back to pirating. Much more convenient to be able to say, watch an episode of The Office and then switch to a Marvel movie from Disney+ and then a Marvel show from Netflix without paying a dime to 3 different subscriptions and being inconvenienced to have to close and open a whole new fucking app.

Now I just spend money for a VPN each month. Less than what it costs for a single of any of those other subscriptions too and I can choose my quality and version and not worry about it getting removed tomorrow!

You should look into getting another router. If you’re concerned with privacy, your router setup is not going to do you any favors there and might be another breach in your privacy.

I imagine you could do this by creating a Faraday Cage of some sort around the antenna that would phone home.

In my old car, the BMW i3, I was part of the Reddit sub there and many of us were upset because we had 3G radios in the car that were getting disconnected which meant our smart features would no longer work. But someone was able to replace the 3G modem for a 4G modem somehow. So it may be possible if you can find that component and rip it out or find a way to replace it with a defective part instead, for example.

Is this Real-Debrid or Read-Debrid? Google took me to one called Real and I wanted to make sure I got the right one

This is the chainsaw scene from Scarface, right? The part where Elmo chats it up with a babe in a bikini by the car while his friend almost gets a chainsaw to the neck.

There’s the right way to do things and there’s the Sebben & Sebben way to do things!

I bought an album off iTunes last year in September. I made the mistake of joining Apple Music and it completely fucked my offline music library. So I had to revert to a backup prior to September.

Went back to download that album and was told I couldn’t because it’s no longer available in my region.

It’s okay to buy it but you can somehow lose access to it because rights expired that had no bearing on you.

It’s fucking stupid and they wonder why people pirate when they pull shit like this.
