I jumped into Usenet as an experiment and, once it was setup, it was ok. Although it is definitely not simple to get started and it seems you are constantly having to pay for stuff, even to access the trackers, which don’t even have all the content!

I decided I didn’t download enough and what I wanted was too hard to find, so I went back to Torrents. Way simpler for my occasional use.

Is SpaceX failing?

But what about Bowie? Why his name being dragged through the mud

Thanks. I did check Trash guides before posting but it doesn’t cover installation, much less Linux user naming and groups, unless I missed it.

That makes sense. Thank you so much. That is a question that has caused me issues for a long time. Now I understand it.

Which parts of Europe is that?

Is it Germany where you can only buy shnitzel, sausage and cabbage in various different forms?

Or Italy, where they’re so proud of their food it’s basically illegal to serve anything that isn’t Italian?

Or France where spice and chilli is outlawed, only garlic and herbs allowed?

It’s true that a lot of traditional British food is bland, but there are way more Chinese, Indian, Thai, mexican, Italian restaurants in any town in England than you’ll find anywhere in Europe.

Thanks, great reply.

I’m not willing to give up just yet. So I’ll try a block account from a different provider and see how it fares.

I’m just trying the scene out, but so far I’m put off by having to pay for both indexers and providers, and now I need multiple of both to get what I thought was basic content (a film about a boy wizard).

Maybe it’s a different problem causing my downloads to not even start, but the help page suggests DMCA as likely cause.

This is the way

Where did everyone go? I thought Lemmy was the new hangout but it still seems so small, even popular posts are only getting a handful of comments?

Arghh, two conflicting replies. What do we do?!!

You’re making a serious claim about war crimes at a level comparable to the SS. My question was, where are you getting this information from. It would be useful to counter some of the pro Israel media bias we see otherwise.

Behaving like Waffen SS

Genuine question; how do you know that? Is there an alternative news outlet that focuses on the Gazan perspective (without the equally bad hyperbole they also seem prone to).

And killing the last of the dragons and stuff

What would you recommend instead?

Why? We all know LLMs are just copy and paste of what other people have said online…if it answers “yes” or “no”, it hasn’t formulated an opinion on the matter and isn’t propaganda, it’s just parroting whatever it’s been trained on, which could be anything and is guaranteed to upset someone with either answer.

You’re doing just great at shaming yourself to strangers on the internet. Keep it up.

Lol, No and No.

Why would you pay for a ‘beefier’ internet connection AND pay for Usenet and then pay even more for a NAS.
I pay for Usenet so precisely so I don’t need those things.
