Fuck, and that’s why i have just bunch of HDMI cables laying around at my home. Half the time i replug even the same cable, aka after cleaning the PC and it’s RNG whatever it works or not. So i just grabbed a different cable or plugged it into next output on the GPU. Sometimes that helped, sometimes not and I’d grab the next cable or even the first one and it helped. I just couldn’t figure out why those work based on RNG.
Genuinely, thank you. That’s really good to know.
Good point.
As i said my social and people skills are kinda bad. i didn’t think that through enough and assumed it just gets buried in new, bad habit from Reddit. Lemmy has smaller userbase. I’ll refrain from just venting in the future.
Fair point, I’m not part of any organized community with the aim of helping those in need, which likely plays a role in not actually seeing others doing something.
And on any local community meeting most of the people are just complaining and yelling at each other so we never reach to any agreements and later i just go fix and clean any shared spaces myself and oddly have become the first person to be called when any elderly person needs some help.
Same at work, oddly I’ve become the first person when someone needs some aid even though it’s not part of my job, while the people whos job description actually forces them to help others aren’t doing it.
Though I’m not that sure how well that fits into here. I apologize if i completely missed the mark.
Well yeah, but I don’t have enough belief in others to assume they are doing their part, even in my own small limited community. Much less in rest of the world. Neither do i have social skills to convince anyone either.
So any positive action i do is just for my own good, fully knowing it’s completely meaningless on almost any scale. So just out of a selfish desire to not feel like shit.
Pretty much, the main reason i went back to pirating media rather than using any of the streaming services. For a brief period streaming services we’re starting to seem like a good alternative.
Pirated 1080p movie is better quality than any of the streaming services “1080p” variant, due to lower bitrate. Even if downloaded ahead of time which should be the best quality possible and not dependant on internet connection. Completely unexcusable.
Not to even start with fucking region locking.
People praising audible as the best place to get audiobooks. So i gave it a shot. Literally the first book i bought was region locked. Fuck this. Removed the DRM, uploaded it out of spite and went back to sailing the high seas.
