I watch a film every single day since Covid. There are great films everywhere every year. I'm not american but the sooner you ignore the american cultural imperialism is the better (or at least the films that don't premiere at co

I follow a lot of japanese accounts on Twitter. Idols, vtubers, actors, sport teams, sumo news, pro mahjong scene, artists, mangaka, streamers, goverment agencies etc. They don't use anything else but Twitter, maybe Facebook. I can mov

I'm not sure and that's a good question but after a point it was a principle of saving them rather than caring them about. Probably a digital hoarding attitude.

Archive.org has it at least, everything from 2009 until 2023. But that's also need to be mirrored because can be taken down https://archive.org/download/jasons-all-sumo-channel-archive...

No! It would be easier but I burned myself so many times with removed videos that I do it on my own basically asap manually. Not a big deal once you have yt-dlp properly

I actually do! I have a perpetual VLC playlist which plays those videos randomly if I need some background noise.

I use yt-dlp (and back then youtube-dl) all the time to archive my liked videos. Started back in around 2010, now I have tens of thousands of videos saved. Storage is cheap and a huge percent of them are not available anymore on the site. I

Honestly there are just too many good ones, I could give a list of at least 50 films I'd recommend without any hesitation at all. But I try to watch as little Hollywood as possible, mostly asian and european cinema. Right now I'd

I’m on liraglutide (Saxenda) for more than a year now. I lost 68kg (150lbs) and incredibly easy to maintain my weight. I’m doing OMAD (1/23 intermittent fasting) and for me it’s pretty much the perfect meal plan. Not even a diet becaus

Can’t wait to watch anime with AI generated subs, it will be a beautiful trainwreck.

Watched it for the first time today. Horny men + women being the butt of every single joke. As if it was written by a horny teenage boy. Sure it’s the product of its time but it’s for the good “they don't make films like that anymore”

I'm on Saxenda for 3 months now (basically Gen 1 of the same GLP-1 drug, Ozempic being the Gen 2, both made by Novo Nordisk). The hunger suppression is real and what's intersting that this is the first time I've felt that I&#

Contrary to everyone I think it was pretty mediocre. The significance of the book is barely covered and the contents of it are not mentioned at all. The story itself is dancing around the “message of the book” and how it prevails over every

As always, Archive.org https://archive.org/details/en-us_windows_10_enterprise_ltsc... LTSC is awesome, everything removed it's just an official vanilla Windows 10. I use it as a daily drive without any problems.

Meanwhile there are countless games from AAAs to indies that are Steam or Epic Games exclusives but I guess that's also okay for whatever reason. Just because I can install multiple stores on my PC that doesn't make it better when

Eh as a gamer I don't like this. Unlike the majority of HN I don't hate MS, they have quality stuff as far as gaming goes. Blizzard on the other hand sucks so much nowadays, they ruined Overwatch, the whole Diablo Immortal fiasco,

No but you can't compare it. Tomb Raider loads a pre-rendered scene that is the same every single time you start the benchmark thus you can compare it across systems. That's the point of it and hence became a staple alongside with

by bdz 4y ago
Tomb Raider is only relevant in this discussion because it has a very detailed and fine built-in benchmark system. Not every game does have that (like neither WoW or Baldur's Gate 3)

It's not about PC gaming though, more like the consoles. Apple can absolutely disrupt the market of Sony and MS (not so much of Nintendo). The MSRP of PS5 and Xbox are $399/$499, if Apple can target this segment they would have a
