This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
Switch to streaming and use ad blockers. It will be 720/ 1080p max, though. Most people won't notice. There's a guide/ wiki on a specific lemmy community.
Also, be honest. Your partner might be tech savvy and not be able to afford entertainment as well. Go for it. That's how I found my partner.
Similar to a Yellow Canary program based on logic principles
Meet woman, don't be weird.
Gradually build a loving, trusting relationship.
She has to get surgery and she'll be bed-bound while she recovers.
"Will you take care of me, Anon?"
Lord of the Rings marathon. The director's cuts. She can't run.
Return of the King was the first and only movie I've seen that had an intermission. Keep in mind this was only the theatrical version!
The long setup. "Babe, you agreed to stay in sickness and in health. This is my sickness."
Narrator: But she didn't stay.
Just do old school style and read her the Silmarillion.
Make sure to get the annotated version.
Yeah my ex wife initially made fun of my server with my Plex media on it...
Guess what she wanted after our divorce? That's right Plex.
If she scoffs at your media setup she's wrong for you.
It's Usenet babe. Get this... it's been around since 1980! Isn't that wild, babe? It just goes to show, if a distribution system isn't broke, don't fix it.
Hahah I was gonna come mention Usenet but glad you already did.
A month ago I was frustrated waiting on some torrent and decided to finally give Usenet a try. All I gotta say is - why didn't I do this switch years ago???
Because they usually cost money
Oh yeah true, I kinda forgot about that since I've been so excited with the results :)
Yearly rates for a provider and 2 indexers still doesn't come close to the cost of all the streaming subscriptions you'd need to have the same library access. Coupled with the ability to use RSS feeds and other homelab services to essentially automate your collection, it's just absolutely worth every penny.
But I wouldn't know firsthand, because I'm a law abiding citizen, and this is all hypothetical. I just read about it on the internet somewhere.
Yarr matey, we be sailin the high seas alone this fine evenin.
