I think it may be time to wish TGX goodbye... 🫡
After a good month of downtime and no communication from owners, upload bots failing and even the staff fearing the worst, it may be time to let another one of the favourite sites sail into the abyss.
You will be missed TGX 🫡

Never knew how hard it was to delete subscription accounts
Over the past couple of years I cancelled all of my subscriptions, have setup a 54tb NAS, a Jellyfin server, and all the bells and whistles that go along with that for locally hosted streaming. Currently in the process of switching all of my online accounts to a new email provider with aliases while permanently deleting a ton of old accounts I’ll never use again.
I never realized how much they make it a pain in the ass to permanently delete some accounts; not just cancelling the subscription but removing your account entirely. I just wasted 40 minutes of my life with Paramount+ support deleting my old Paramount+ account because they don’t offer any option for users to permanently delete their accounts themselves. I have now dealt with multiple other companies who did this already and 9/10 times subscription services make it confusing and hard as hell to do this or to where you have to do a whole conversation with their support before deleting your data.
As Gabe from Steam said “Piracy is a service issue.” and I absolutely feel that today. Much love to you all, thanks for all the fish!

YouTube ad woke up my infant
Just got my infant down for a nap after 45 minutes of struggling. Baby-friendly naptime music playing from a bluetooth speaker. The video changed and an ad about living with herpes startled my daughter wide awake. imtiredboss.jpg. Revanced that shit immediately. Fuck YouTube.

obviously ideally you're always on a vpn but if I'm downloading books from Anna's Archive do I need to worry about it?
Of course the second I'm torrenting, vpn on, but a lot of times I'll be in the middle of work calls and just browsing Anna's for some textbooks or something that I think of since the work calls are boring. Should I be on the vpn when doing this?

What was the first MP3 you downloaded, and when?
The new trailer for Happy Gilmore 2 reminded me that the first MP3s I ever downloaded were Adam Sandler tracks from his album What the Hell Happened to Me. I can remember downloading The Goat and The Chanukah Song in early 1996, and playing them with WinPlay3. MP3s were still relatively new back then and it was difficult to find full albums. Still fucking awesome though :)
Anyone else remember their first MP3?

Why do people prefer pirating spotify over downloading the music?
I'm not talking about going to the extreme of hunting high quality FLAC files and all that good stuff. I'm talking about the basic "Look for artist, download mp3" that people used to do back in the late 00's. Maybe I'm just used to series and gaming piracy over music, but I genuinely do not understand why platforms like Spotify have to be hacked when getting your music for yourself on your own devices is much easier and simpler.
Or if you really want streaming and go through the extra effort, you can set-up a simple plex server for music with your own music. No more hassle.
It all boils down to having the music yourself. Why people prefer streaming?
Or, one step further, why pirates treat streaming music and streaming films/tv completely different?
