Not suggesting he was automatically a good guy just because of that. But there's a video podcast where he spoke to Jason Calacanis about how the older you get the more socialist you get, the dangers of Facebook, a responsibility for societies to create citizens and not just workers, the need for healthcare, education, and order social programs, etc.

It was all very level headed and reasonable, and he honestly looked incredible. Now he looks nothing like it.

The podcast is This Week in Startups and they have an archive. Highly recommend you check out this specific episode so you can see the stark contrast.

    Does anyone know of any good Moparscape or other RuneScape spinoffs? I would like to relive some RuneScape memories but don't know if I can get into my account, and even if I can, it'd be fun to level up very quickly and buy a bunch of rare items I never had, like Santa hats and party hats.

    Onn 4K Pro vs. Old laptops for optimal setup (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
     

    Goal: Non-technical native TV experience with streaming, live TV, live sports

    I recently bought an Onn 4K Pro directly from Walmart. I've set it up with the following:

    • Downloader (for VPN and other apps)
    • CinemaHQ (for live TV)
    • Stremio/Nuvio (for streaming shows and movies)
    • TFlix and Norofire (for live sports)

    I also have an old laptop running Linux Mint hooked up to my TV. I bought an integrated keyboard and mouse to navigate, where I use fmhy.net to stream stuff, mostly TV/movies and live sports (haven't found reliable live TV channels).

    Question: Is a streaming box better, or old laptops?

    I want to set this up so my family can use it too, so it needs to be as easy and non-technical as possible. I want to give family members boxes or laptops that they can easily use with this setup (or something similar).

    This is actually why I started using Nuvio, since you can set up profiles and the configuration carries over to every device (so I wouldn't need to set up 5+ devices manually).

    I would think that the Onn boxes are best for this, but I have several concerns:

    1. You need a Google account to set it up.
    2. Google is cracking down in ways that would affect "sideloading" particularly on Google devices (Onn runs Google TV).

    If I can continue finding some old hardware (Thinkpads, Macbooks) for ~$125 or less, is it worth it to have an old laptop instead of a brand new streaming box? What do you think would be a good price range for hardware in this case? And how old is "too old"?

    Stremio streams not working with Surfshark + TorBox alternative? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
     

    Ahoy, fellow pirates. I'm having 2 issues:

    1. "No streams found" on Stremio when SurfShark is turned on.

    Call me crazy, but this basically defeats the purpose of SurfShark. They work when I turn it off. Even turning off "CleanWeb" on SurfShark doesn't do it.

    Any ideas why?

    2. TorBox doesn't let me pay.

    This is a weird one. It seems TorBox isn't very privacy-friendly. I did the one-day trial, and then wanted to pay. But they prevented me from paying altogether. Their support doesn't say why, but they want me to disable my browser extensions, turn off my VPN, etc. Makes no sense to me, but I'm tired of trying. And I'm sure if I create a new account with them, the same thing will happen.

    Who should I use instead of TorBox?

    My priority is getting set up on Stremio and/or Nuvio.tv, but I was also hoping that my debrid service would integrate nicely with CinemaHQ.

    I was looking at put.io, but on CHQ there are only the following services:

    • Premiumize
    • TorBox
    • AllDebrid (I heard this is having issues recently?)
    • EasyNews
    • Trakt

    Do I need an alias email service? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
     

    cross-posted from: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/70471346

    I started looking into email alias services like SimpleLogin, Addy, etc. and I'm wondering if I really need it. Here's why:

    My email provider has domain alias functionality. I can connect multiple domains to it. Let's say I'm ratm@domain1.com.

    I can buy domain2.com and create an email address called anon@domain2.com. All emails (to both addresses) will land in the same inbox.

    I can also create a catch-all email address so that I can create login unique emails for each service, like: lemmy@domain2.com, mastodon@domain2.com, etc.

    So I guess my question is: What do I get from an email alias service that I'm not already getting from my email provider?

    Is it maybe that I won't be able to reply from the service emails? Like, would I not be able to reply from lemmy@domain2.com since it's only a catch-all? So I can receive mail to it, but can't send from it?
