- If you took the most ardent revolutionary, vested him in absolute power, within a year he would be worse than the Tsar himself.

Well at least it gives us some idea of their politics.

tbh it looks a lot more like parody to me. Also, please by mindful of community rule 5.
Ah sorry man, I didn’t check it out too thoroughly.

A bit of self-promotion here, but check out [email protected] if you want to stay up to date on recent disinformation campaigns. It’s obviously not going to solve the problem, but it’s one more tool to help identify and fight the disinfo peddlers.

Wait until you hear about the semi-autonomous killer drone swarms, designed to prevent signal jamming (by not needing an operator).
Ok, I suppose it’s best to err on the side of caution.
I don’t think there’s currently a way to automatically sync watch history across devices, but I’d love to be wrong about that tbh, because it would be handy.
Hi OP, how come this is tagged NSFW?
For me it’s not just about ads, it’s also about surveillance. With FreeTube you can have subscriptions without needing a linked YouTube account, and all the subscription/watch history data is stored locally. So, it’s a good opt-out of Google/YouTube surveillance. And you can import/export subscriptions if you need to transfer to another device. I happen to use FreeTube for this because it is frequently updated and I like the setup, but other options exist - I’m not really promoting this option over other options, just raising some awareness about it.

That’s a good suggestion, I just haven’t had the motivation to get that setup yet since Usenet currently meets my needs. But I’m sure it would work, yes.
Getting into the weeds a bit here lol. I do use a VPN on my personal PC, but on the media server where I have my *arr stack, I’ve found that using a VPN, even with split tunneling configured, allows certain TV websites to detect I’m using a VPN and block streaming content. If I wasn’t using a DNS proxy, or if I ran the stack on a separate server, it probably wouldn’t be an issue, but I’m not so it is :p. I’ll add that if I am using only Usenet then I prefer not to run a VPN since it’s reasonably safe IMO to raw dog that content, since a VPN always has some overhead involved in terms of bandwidth and latency.
Yeah, you can integrate torrents into the stack, afaik. But due to some technical considerations I don’t like to run a VPN on my media server, and in my country you definitely need one for torrents.
I think it’s a bit unfair too, buddy. Usenet with the *arr stack and Jellyfin is such a great experience with all that automation, once you’ve got it all setup. Mine’s setup to preference H265 and 5.1 channel audio, and specific resolution/quality. I mean, yeah you can access much the same content completely for free using torrents instead, but it feels like going back to the steam age now to do it all manually.
There a whole article about Russian disinformation on this topic here. They certainly did have a pact with the Nazis. Your argument is basically “it didn’t happen, but if it did then it the West forced us into it” which is a 100% classic disinformation line. It’s like when Putin says there is no war with Ukraine, but if there is it’s because the West forced us to do it.
