Honestly that’s a good shout. For me I just want a convenient automated solution to download a couple books lol.

That second suggestion of yours is actually something I hadn’t thought about. I might do that someday actually.

    What are you guys running for this? I was looking around online and on the other site but everything seems either very new with few people saying anything or it’s a completely vibe coded project, or just dead. Some people are just recommending to instead do it on-device but where’s the fun in that if you have a server ;)

    Cheers for any responses.

    I used Tidal for about a year but yeah the user experience is quite lacking. I moved to Apple Music as an iPhone user and it’s been a very nice middle ground for me personally. I still buy music and merch to support the artists I love though.

    Even without the AI overview there’s so many AI written articles in search results that it’s hard to get through the noise. Limiting search to pre 2022 only does so much when you want information on something recent.

    I don’t miss the old Google, I miss the old Internet :(

    It’s both now. I love the immersion of the capacitive touch but in many games you have to grip the controller like crazy to not drop something (or maybe I’m just weak lol). The button makes that a problem of the past WHILE still retaining the capacitive touch for immersion. I do wish they’d include the straps for free though.

    TLDR; Oh my god who thought it’s a good idea to put ads in the middle of a movie and then TWO in the middle of a 27 minute long episode of a show!?!?!?

    I was watching Fleabag on Prime last night (great show) and there were no ads, everything was going great, and then when watching The Smashing Machine (Safdie) right afterwards I got an ad in the beginning. I think okay, I can still deal with that, standard prime is super cheap anyway here, so it’s not a big problem. However, right in the middle, during a sudden cut from an emotional scene they showed a fucking ad for cars. Wtf.

    Then today I wanted to finish Fleabag and on the last episode they made us watch an ad at first, then in the middle, and then about 7 MINUTES from the end! What the actual fuck?

    Anyway I’m cancelling my prime sub asap and just pirating this shit at least the ads don’t show up in the middle (or at all with Adblock obviously). Fucking hell.
