Whenever I think of Fomenko (basically daily) I think of how fake everything about the Roman Empire is.

Same here. I'm using Syncthing to keep states synched between my MacBook and Pixel. All I'm missing is a shared grocery list for me and my girlfriend.

Who trains ChatGPT biases? Humans.

Yeah, unless your computer is permanently hooked up to the TV, then it's probably irrelevant. :)

I don't know, perhaps I'm not getting the question.

It's basically a streaming service with a library that you fill yourself. It doesn't matter if you use a laptop, app or streaming dongle to watch the content. I'd say that it's easier to watch content if you already own a dongle like a Chromecast though.

You pay for the amount of storage you want, then you select whatever torrents you want to download, either via a browser extension or services like chill.institute that look through common torrent search engines for you and give the opportunity to download instantly to your put.io account. You're completely in charge of your library and put.io won't show you anything you didn't download yourself.

It's basically a Torrent tracker as a service with a web interface to directly stream your torrents in your browser or to a Chromecast, Apple TV and whatever.

Billionaires also pledged to fund rebuilding Notre Dame in France and no one paid anything. Almost no one actually paid and it seems the press doesn't care to see if anything has been paid since 2019: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/notre-dame-fire-update-big-donors-delay-fulfilling-pledges-to-rebuild-notre-dame/

Pledges are PR, nothing more.

Christian "Schuldenbremse" Lindner. No money for education, public transport and energy investments but the feeding the war machine is completely within budget.

Around 2010 there was this "pledge" where a website people basically collected a list of things they'd require in order to stop pirating tv shows and movies and I think it came down to:

Provide easy access to large library Provide multi language support, must offer original language Allow downloads/offline viewing Be reasonably priced

Plus some additional stuff I can't remember.

When Netflix got big, they basically covered it all. Then everyone wanted a piece of the pie.

Back to piracy then. 15$ for put.io ✨🙏
