If you appreciate books on history and this history specifically, check out what came right before it: Takeover: HITLER’S FINAL RISE TO POWER. It’s about the final six months before Hitler got there. It was surprising to me how much of an accident of history his reign was when I’d long thought it had been inevitable.
What a great idea! I love Bash scripting, so I’ll look into doing this myself for fun tomorrow.
I download when I have free time to fill / kill. I watch one genre of videos and periodically check on a number of channels that have that content. I watch each video working down the list deleting them as I consume them. In the rare case that I want to save something, I toss it in an unmanaged directory of internet content.
My Plex library is where managed content lives. Stuff from the internet doesn’t deserve that level of care (in my system of data management).
I run a Plex server for my movie and television library. I just watch YT videos once and delete them, mostly in the background while I do other things. But I’ll look into both tools regardless because automation is always interesting to me. Thanks for the tips!
Yes. The only positive thing the Dilbert creator ever did for the world was teach me (and others) that Marketing is bad. (He’s a fucking creep and a Trump weirdo.)
I’ve landed on that page a couple of times. I’m just waiting to be blocked.
I almost never watch videos on youtube because I download them and watch them locally. The two things that I use to download them are Downie (Mac) and yt-download (cross platform). This helps me avoid ads unless they are baked into the video. I also like to grab a bunch of content all at once and then watch at my leisure.
I got into a habit of falling asleep on the sofa because watching tv was the only way I could fall asleep with insomnia. That last years until moving and getting a new sofa. The new sofa wasn’t ready at the new place and I had no choice but to sleep in my bed (there’s no television in the bedroom). I still move to the sofa if I wake up in the middle of the night and feel restless.
When I was around 20yo, I spent a summer with a new group of friends pretending I knew everyone’s names. It was anxiety hell. Today, I realize that I can just admit that I forget names and ask and it’s no problem. But that was an interesting summer.
The 2010 DNA evidence that showed a match with Pelicot did not make it into the case file at the time. It is unclear why. But the cold case was reopened by an investigating magistrate in Nanterre after Pelicot’s 2020 arrest for raping his wife. Questioned by police in 2022, Pelicot first denied any involvement, until he was presented with the DNA evidence of his blood on the shoe.
Ffs, this guy appears to be even more evil than we’d thought. Sounds like he’s very likely tied to a murder.
Show your true colors, cops. Security for the elite. With tax payer dollars. What a disgrace.
You sound like a candidate for a book I enjoyed: Highly Irregular: Why Tough, Through, and Dough Don’t Rhyme and Other Oddities of the English Language
Yeah, I agree overall in that I do far less work than I used to because I’ve got older and realized I only have to do as much as is required to keep my job. On the other hand, there’s the lazy where I don’t take care of a thing that is actually for me, like picking up a prescription when the weather sucks.
What? I’m talking about the astronauts who can’t go home.
I believe that you didn’t intend to kill someone. You still killed someone.
because I exposed the corruption behind the prosecution of Derek Chauvin
What did you expose, bud? That cops kill people?
I used to have a line in my dating app profile about not contacting me if you’re rude to service workers. You can guess what jobs I’ve worked in the past.
This is how I think about the past version of me who manages my Reminders app. That son of a bitch is constantly telling me what to do and I hate it. He’s overly ambitious and pretends we’re not lazy af.
I have to think they’re probably getting pretty mad by now.
Doesn’t matter that he came from money. He saw an imbalance of power and did something about it.
