As a beginning web application dev (I know django and some js, am little baby dev), would it be worth looking into preact instead of industry standard tools like react? Am I asking the wrong question?

I've got close to 400 films and 30 series in my collection, at least 40% of it is from thrift stores and libraries. I'm certain that libraries would be totally down with you copying their media, so long as you kept it hush hush. Is their whole purpose not to disseminate information and media to the people?

Get you a nice private VPN and set up a kodi install configured for piracy. Honestly there's probably bandit signs in your neighborhood selling firesticks and roku boxes that're already set up for it.

alternatively, don't steal your media and buy physical copies, then rip them to set up a jellyfin. Thrift stores have tons of VHS and DVDs. Ebay has a huge selection of cheap bootlegs that can offer you plausible deniability if legit copies are too expensive.

I think I'm gonna move the goalpost on my life goals a bit.

Don't out my MO please <3

men who have sex with men

My friend just say "people who have anal sex". You're excluding straight people who do butt stuff, and your excluding transfemme tops who do butt stuff. Saying "people who have anal sex" includes those groups as well as those who eat ass but otherwise don't put things in butts.

It's not just gay and bisexual men who put things in butts. Not even close.

Oh God I need to buy my ddr2 before you all start swarming for the new old stock.

Confidence is key, as long as he knows he looks good and wears it as such, he'll still pull.

My great grandmother had an arc shaped burn mark on her windowsill. I asked her where it was from.

Turns out the crystal ball on the piano wasn't always on the piano.

I moved to half caff for a few weeks, then to decaf. I still have a cup of coffee every morning as part of my routine. The headaches were brutal on both changes, and I regret not taking longer to do so.

It began when I noticed caffeine pouches being sold at a gas station. Not pills, which feel like a drug, pouches, just like the Zyn pouches. The difference is caffeine can be sold to minors. I realized when I saw them that caffeine is simply another insidious drug being peddled to the masses to keep us locked in addictions, feeding the machine with our hard earned money.

You do not need the stimulant. You do not need the pacifier. You will not enjoy going without, until you learn how much better you feel without.

Yeah, always high. I quit weed and caffeine at the same time. Quit alcohol 7 months ago. Nicotine a year ago. I'm completely sober for the first time in 13 years as of a few months ago. It wasn't the code's fault. It was depression. TBH the coding was a way to gain some control over my life. It gave me reasons to dive deeper into my addictions though.
