Am I the only one preferring low quality media over high quality one?

I have a very slow Internet connection (5 Mbps down, and even less for upload). Given that, I always download movies at 720p, since they have low file size, which means I can download them more quickly. Also, I don't notice much of a difference between 1080p and 720p. As for 4K, because I don't have a screen that can display 4K,...

I do torrent but only legal stuff: Like every Linux Distro ISO or Some other legal document and stuff.
If I have to torrent some ~mhm content I use remote torrenting using Telegram.

It's not bedrock edition. It's "Windows" edition. That's why, They never gonna port it to Linux.

You need to buy the game just to access source code. That's how GPL work.

Yep I know that but someone have to share the source code first. I know it's not piracy. I just share the source code because some people want to access but don't want to buy the game.

Yea, I know

Does anyone know a way to download the documents off scribd without paying?

Scribd has some pdfs I want to download but they charge 15 dollars a month to be able to download stuff and require you to view an ad for every few pages you read using the in-site viewer. Does anyone know a way to get past this and just download or read it without the subscription or ads?

I've decided to switch to Linux Mint, but i have a lot of pirated games. How to play them with all the cracks and stuff in linux?

I have decided to switch to Linux Mint from windows. I don't use computer for work that much. And for my personal use I'm switching to Linux Mint. I have heard a lot about it. So giving it a try.

Everyone else has already replied to your question, but take a tip from me. If you have an old PC or low-spec system, dual-boot Linux Mint alongside Windows. Run games on Windows natively because Wine always yields fewer FPS than Windows.

Proof: I get around 45-55 FPS in a game called Dread Templar on Proton, but on Windows, I get 60 FPS with same settings.

Rant: vanilla local app search is ridiculously bad

For a search company I can't believe how terrible the Android app search is. I can't even search "bank" for my banking apps, and there doesn't really seem to be any metadata except for the title that goes into the search. Which is absolutely ridiculous given how many companies name their apps something cReAtIvE like "home" or...

As a reminder – the Settings homepage will be shown only on the Home and Pro editions of Windows 11 and...

There's apparently a Reddit activity streak achievement system now. ( lemmy.world )

I just noticed this when I saw a strange "Achievement Unlocked" notification pop up on Reddit. What do you think of this? It seems like a retention tactic to me, like what Amino had with its streak leaderboards, and GameFAQs currently has with streak achievements for logging on ten days in a row and also for all days of a month.
