I use Kavita. I edit the metadata in either Calibre, comictagger, or ComicRack (deprecated) first depending on whether it’s a book or a comic.
You might also consider Komga, but I was never able to get it set up correctly on Windows so I can’t directly compare the two.
Yeah, she basically wants all gay and trans people to die. Her .NFOs in her releases are completely unhinged and really into the “anti-woke” culture war.
I’m just gonna do it manually from now on, to be honest.
And no, that’s not what I want. I have 30+ shows on my watchlist - not only do I not want to watch them all right away, but I have limited disk space and an average download speed of 4MB/s so it just doesn’t make sense to download 30TB of stuff all at once.
Sonarr is a TV show downloading interface that connects with various indexers to provide content. It has been hit or miss for me. I don’t like some of the features and there’s no dark theme. I recently tried it again after a few years and I unfortunately found that it looked and behaved almost the exact same.
I thought auto-renaming would be cool, but if you seed things for a long time like I do, you end up with duplicate copies of everything because it can’t delete or rename the original files since they’re in use by your torrent client.
I also thought importing my watchlist from Trakt would be cool, but then it started auto-downloading everything I hadn’t already watched with no way to pick and choose during the import. I had to do it manually after deleting all of the torrents Sonarr had automatically sent to qBittorrent, which sort of defeated the purpose of having it do all these things for me.
I dunno, maybe I’m just an idiot, but Sonarr seems not to have the level of fine-tuning that I would prefer. It’s nearly easier for me to do it myself.
Looks like an AI-driven captcha solver for 4chan. The reviews mention something about not having to buy a pass so I guess 4chan charges to get around the captchas. Lol.
Yep, I love it. I use it for comics, manga, and epubs. It also connects to Tachiyomi and FBReader so I can read stuff on my tablet through the apps I prefer (though I’ve heard the built-in reader is good). The dev, Joe, is great too.
Keygens are quite rare these days. Downloading from trusted uploaders only is pretty easy if you know what to look for, that’s why the piracy megathread from FMHY exists.
It would be nice to have F-Droid and other app repos available on the Play Store. Or some other solution that puts alternative app sources on a more level playing field.
Yeah, their ads are a lot more aggressive than they used to be. I recently started watching SkyMed with my wife and it’s nearly unbearable - and they want $5/month to get rid of them. At least cable didn’t just play the same 6 ads over and over. :/
Masks only protect other people from your own germs, not really vice versa. If I’m not sick, there’s no reason for me to be wearing the mask.
It’d be nice if people showed consideration for public health but it seems like the average person doesn’t give a shit and mask-wearing is now (unfortunately) a political statement, which I think disincentivizes wearing one even further for those that don’t care.
The original is basically the same as this meme but more condensed.
The woman is able to flag down several vehicles not because the distress of a fellow human being roused the (presumably) men piloting the vehicles to help her, but because they are enticed by the implicit suggestion that her mere presence (or rather, the mere presence of a prototypical “slut,” i.e., a promiscuous/sexually indiscriminate woman) may mean that they get to have sex with her.
It’s demonstrating sexual objectification of women in a humourous way.
“Bullets are too precious to use on his own people,” so he… constructs metal boxes that can fit people inside and uses vast amounts of energy to heat them instead.
How can anyone listen to her and take the conversation seriously?
To me, when it uses the exact same rhetoric as the people who take it seriously, it’s not really a joke. Or at least it’s not a funny joke.
“Haha, bisexuality contradicts non-binary identity,” isn’t really funny to me because a) it’s not true, and b) I’ve seen cisgender bisexual people seriously put forth this notion in an effort to reduce support for transgender people. The “drop the T” movement has used almost your exact same language to try to illustrate through humour that trans people don’t belong.
I’ll admit I’m sensitive, but these phrases aren’t really jokes. It’s basic (and lame) wordplay at best. It’s inherently stale, like the “I identify as an attack helicopter” and “don’t assume my gender” crap.
It means bisexual, as in being attracted to your own gender and other genders. Here’s a link for you to learn that bisexuality is more than just a gotcha you can use against trans people: https://bi.org/en/101
Yeah, I completely agree that someone who is 18-20 just doesn’t have the life experience to know a lot about relationships in general.
My wife dated a guy who was in his mid-40s when she was 18 and, with hindsight, it seems like her inexperience with life, intimacy, and relationships was actually something he was looking for (gross).
I guess I assumed that the person OP likes is at least in their mid-20s. I mostly added the legal adult part to cover my ass in case a snarky commenter was like, “oh what if she’s 16?” trying to be smart.
As long as she’s a legal adult within 15 or so years of you, she can’t be too young IMO. If she likes you, that’s her choice. Unless the workplace aspect bothers you, what’s the harm?
I dunno, I’m 28. I’d date someone who’s 43. Just tossing in my 2 cents.
Here are some possible reasons for why the unemployment rate can be misleading and why low-wage workers (usually in the service sector, which includes over 2/3 of jobs in Canada and over 3/4 of jobs in the USA) are often not considered for promotion or career development. Wage stagnation and inflation are rampant and are driving down real wages. I made less this year than last year despite a 5% wage increase because inflation was over 8%.

A third type of underemployment refers to situations in which individuals who are unable to find work in their chosen field quit the workforce altogether, meaning they haven’t looked for a job in the last four weeks, per the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ (BLS) definition of “not in the labor force.”
The number of these workers skyrocketed during the onset of the economic crisis and lockdown in early 2020, which ultimately resulted in a substantial change in working conditions and coincided with a crash in the markets. It is statistically difficult to measure the third type of underemployment.
People are removing themselves from the job market; they’ve given up and are not being counted by labour statistics. This is also not something caused by COVID-19, just made more overt due to the large number of people affected.
https://www.vox.com/2018/5/8/17308744/bullshit-jobs-book-david-graeber-occupy-wall-street-karl-marx
A lot of bullshit jobs are just manufactured middle-management positions with no real utility in the world, but they exist anyway in order to justify the careers of the people performing them. But if they went away tomorrow, it would make no difference at all.
And that’s how you know a job is bullshit: If we suddenly eliminated teachers or garbage collectors or construction workers or law enforcement or whatever, it would really matter. We’d notice the absence. But if bullshit jobs go away, we’re no worse off.
My sister-in-law’s ex-husband works for the federal government; when he first started his job, he did his work at what he thought was a normal pace, only for his supervisor to tell him to slow down because others weren’t able to keep up. He would be given a report to write and would finish it in 3-4 days, but his supervisor wanted him to take 7-10 days.
He’s employed, sure, but he has to essentially waste his own time so that his superiors don’t get butthurt. He plays video games on his computer during his downtime; you’d think a person like that would be fired, but he’s been working there for 4 or 5 years now, so he would never be on the chopping block during layoffs.

For example, we worked with a food services company that is one of the largest employers in the world to examine how training and job opportunities are created within the company. With more than 15,000 current job openings at the company, recruitment and retention is a constant focus. Training employees to create career paths for them in this low-wage industry is an important part of the retention strategy.
An initial examination of the data showed that training expenditures were highest among low-wage workers at the company, yet when those low-wage workers changed jobs within the company, more than one third soon left, and almost half saw almost no pay increase. Digging deeper, we found that only 17% of low-wage workers saw a significant pay increase.
These outcomes did not jibe with the firm’s commitment to training. Further analysis showed that when we removed compliance-related training expenditures from the data, we learned that most other training expenditures were directed at higher-wage workers and that these workers were more likely to take advantage of training benefits offered by the company.
If you’re working 40 hours per week while living paycheck to paycheck, yes, you’re employed, but is that really the sign of a healthy national economy or robust quality of life? Job hopping is the only way to reliably keep up with inflation, but it impacts your ability to build towards retirement (pension, 401k/RRSP contributions, etc.) or qualify for benefits such as paid time off or continuing education.
In the tech industry it’s even worse, as there are so many software developers and networking/IT professionals waiting for a chance that companies genuinely can get rid of interns/junior staff (and sometimes even senior staff) at will and have a replacement at the “revolving desk” by next week.
Yeah, it seems obvious that it would become a haven for CP. Not sure how that was unexpected for OP, but I guess it is sort of sad that there’s no actual way to prevent it without aggressive (and probably human) moderation. Very expensive and time-consuming.
Yep, I’m just waiting for @ArtemisApp to go into public beta; the dev has said that things will go a lot quicker once the API is out soon.
Yeah, I got GTA V free from Epic years ago and it was so frustrating to have to deal with 3 layers of DRM (Epic launcher, Rockstar launcher, and Social Club) that I just pirated it. Fuck that.
