For a classic Looney Tunes fan, you should look for the Golden Collection.

Once again proving Gabe Newell correct.

They do.

Instead of bookmarks I use the “share to Standard Notes” option. It names the note after the link, saves the link, allows you to write a summary or tags, and makes it all searchable so it is findable later rather than disappearing like a needle in a haystack.

Why are you using Grindr Classic for search?

I have been on it for about a year and I have no complaints.

What non-american search engine do you use?

As with film and TV, lack of access to manga is the main driver behind the global surge in unlicensed demand

“We think there is a fundamental misconception about piracy. Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem. If a pirate offers a product anywhere in the world, 24 x 7, purchasable from the convenience of your personal computer, and the legal provider says the product is region-locked, will come to your country 3 months after the US release, and can only be purchased at a brick and mortar store, then the pirate’s service is more valuable.”.

(I loved the Google Music recommendation engine, RIP)

This will never cease to sting. Google Play Music was so good.

Ideapads are trash. I only recommend Thinkpads because they are their business line. I especially like their X1 series. I also recommend buying their new old stock because you get a good deal and you can buy their excellent extended warranty service. Two years in my screen went dark. First they replaced the MB and when that didn’t work, I got a brand new screen. No charge and I basically have a brand new system.

Lenovo Thinkpads are always a great choice. You can get N.O.S (new old stock) models at deep discounts directly from their website.

…open-source advocates from places like Bluesky, Threads…

WHAT?!?

Nah homie. We are on that Cyberpunk expressway.

I installed Pop!_OS on a Thinkpad and made it my main work computer. It is the most boring computing experience ever. Nothing ever breaks. It just works.

Honestly, it sounds like the best idea is to run your own instance. You can do it off of old, trash hardware.

You can pay to get into communick.news or start your own instance.

The OG route. I started in 1995/96 and it was all groping around in the dark and hoping to find a helpful book at Borders.

The number of examples of media becoming unreachable to paying consumers keeps growing.

Warner Brothers (Max) is the greatest example of this. Years of content from Cartoon Network just disappeared, leaving the consumer no legal avenue to enjoy some of their favorite shows.

I do not advocate for piracy. I advocate for archiving.

It is definitely covered by Anne Rice.
