You actually agree with me more than you disagree. If they have the mentality to send out clear text passwords, they probably don’t hage the natural talent to design an asynchronous system.

Why wouldn’t it be generated and sent immediately? If someone has the inclination to do this type of thing, they probably also want to do things synchronously and immediately.
Not even the clouds are safe!
I did the same thing and have the same attitude. I still watch what few Netflix shows are any good. They just aren’t getting any of my money any more 🙂
I think it’s more common for people to rotate which service they’re subscribed to each month.
But piracy is still increasing in popularity.
It can be as simple as running a VPN on your computer, and downloading torrents through a torrent app on the same computer. Then you can just watch the videos you download however you like.
If you want a Netflix-like interface for what you’ve downloaded, run Plex or Jellyfin and point them to your downloads. Get the plex or jellyfin app on your tv, tablet, phone, etc as well. The app will see plex running on your computer and you’re good to go.
You can keep getting more advanced depending on what you want. For example you can use apps like Sonarr and Radarr to automatically send movies and shows to your download app as they come out. You can also use things like Bazarr to automatically get subtitles. Tdarr to encode what you download if you want to do something like make sure everything works on your tv and a specific streaming stick (eg: roku).
And on and on.
I use all of that, and have it set up through docker on a server which has access to a giant NAS for storing the files.
Meh, humanity is getting what it deserves. We literally did this to ourselves.
I think animals should have more rights already. It’d be nice if they could talk or something to help people realize they’re actually living things worthy of empathy.
But to your point, cats and dogs are already among the better-treated animals in large parts of the world.
Compared to animals who get farmed (especially factory farmed), or get the death sentence label of a pest or invasive species.
We have our place on the planet purely by right of conquest.
It’s fundamentally immoral what we do to animals but people just ignore it, accept it as a necessary evil, or somehow block the empathy from their brain applying to animals.
It’s fundamentally impossible to grant read access without copy. And you can always do whatever you want to your copy.
Otherwise, piracy wouldn’t be a thing.
Or trying to drive to the shop instead of getting a tow.
I don’t eat meat. But that’s beside the point.
There’s a difference between one person doing something and 10% of the population doing it. The latter would have a meaningful impact, but the former would not.
And the key part of my point is the average individual cannot make 10% of the population do anything.
If 10% of the population are vegetarians, it has nothing to do with what any single person did. A single person is almost always powerless to affect the world.
No individual average person can do anything of significance to fight climate change or have a meaningful impact on the global environment. Only governments or massive organizations can.
If you could do an alternate reality type thing, where one version of you lives a perfect life, environmentally speaking, and the other version lives the worst, the world would be the same at the end of both.
Yeah, I miss when there was a social media site that catered to just people you know. Just friends and family.
Plain sparkling water. It’s already my favourite one. I drink it by the pallet.
This is like us too. The important stuff aligns, but we have very different general interests and hobbies.
Obviously, that’s the one that’s off the table. The choice is strictly between developing medicine or saving a species.
And I think we all know the birds are the ones who will have to go.

Lemmy should add something that differentiates porn from other nsfw types of content.
Same with nsfl stuff to be honest.
I feel like there’s three types of nsfw content that people either want to see or want to hide all of: porn, gore, other (eg drugs).
Having one tag/flair to cover them all was always a mistake for social media.
For people who value reading: if they have no books on their shelves. They might be avid readers of ebooks, or just use the library.
But this should clear itself up with a rather simple discussion started by mentioning a book you read recently.
