You mean like imagining a voice speak out your thoughts? Thoughts are so much faster than speech, I feel like having to speak out all your thoughts would slow things down significantly.
The best tip I learned about reading faster is to stop narrating the words in your head, which puts a hard limit on your reading speed.
America’s working class has a long history of buying into propaganda and acting against their own interests. It’s a huge reason why the medical industry has gotten so bad.
That being said, it’s important to keep our anger focused on the system, not people who are getting suckered by it.
I think this is why there’s a common narrative on the internet that this “evidence” was planted to frame a random dude.
It’s fair to call that a conspiracy theory at this point, but hopefully due process will reveal the truth.
I suspect the perceived morality of his actions has a strong effect here. I don’t think people are “looking past” his actions as much as they likely aren’t as repulsed by them.
For internal desktop drives, I have the WH16NS40. After flashing some open firmware on it, it works perfectly for playing and ripping BRs. Looks like I’ll be picking up a spare in case this one dies.
The MakeMKV forum has a lot of good tips and instructions on selecting and configuring BluRay drives.
I’d have no issue with digital media if there was a way to actually own it. Everything is either streaming only or ridden with DRM that can only be played within their app. Blurays, assuming you can decrypt its DRM bs, are the last bastion of media ownership left.
These specs look like a leftover casserole of hardware.
Never buy any hardware that doesn’t work offline.

When you install Windows, you don’t really control your computer. Microsoft does.
Does this plugin work on mobile too? I’m looking to try out Obsidian and this sounds promising.
I used to use Tube Archivist, but once I discovered that Pinchflat can integrate with existing media libraries (Plex, Jellyfin), I switched to that.
These were/are both hosted using Docker on Linux servers, accessed via the WebUI.
It’s a lot more work to set up, but having videos just show up in my Plex library with all the metadata is worth it.
ngl I actually thought the official intro was some kind of fan edit.
Water is also wet.
Billionaires don’t pay taxes because they don’t have “income”. Their worth is in unrealized gains that remain untaxed until they sell, which they never will unless they have to. Instead, they can pass those assets to their next of kin after death, who also don’t pay taxes until they sell. Even if they do sell, they only pay taxes on the value gains since the inheritance, not since they were acquired by their benefactors. Generational wealth secured.
I’ve always suspected people conflate communism with dictators, which is the main cause of distrust for anything anti-capitalism.
Are there any examples of a nation successfully transitioning out of capitalism without ending up in a dictatorship? I want to believe it can be done, but I have no idea what it would look like.
Most mainstream distros are no harder to learn than Windows or macOS. People (especially as they get older) are just averse to relearning how to do things.
5 money, 2 problems.
I call this “physical memory”. If you struggle with remembering things, you can organize your space to augment your memory. It’s VERY effective and is often simpler/easier than writing things down.
Also, if you are living with someone who does this, for the love of god, do not move their stuff without asking. You are basically erasing part of their memory and setting them up for failure.
Just started Celeste. It’s hard because I suck at platformers but I love the music + art so much.
