And lemmy.ml - as evidenced by the comments here.

I think less can be more and it should’ve bern plain and just say “Earth”

Also shoutout to Tubular which is the same thing, but with SponsorBlock for youtube

No idea unfortunately. But it looks to be a fork. Not sure if I tried it or not before I ended up using Innertune.

But I know these alternative Youtube frontends gave me issues with the VPN, had to exclude also Tubular in the split tunneling for it to work for me.

I use InnerTune with proton VPN (though I had to exclude it in the split tunneling setting) and all works just fine.

No one has ever observed it or heard it or felt it.

I wish.

I love how intense he looks in the thumbnails

I know what you mean matey. Still feels a little dirty though.

The more I read about JK the more I hate to love Harry Potter…

Yes, I very distinctly talk LotR only.

As for Hobbit, the Maple films edit made it quite ok and cuts most of the questionable stuff. Still too much Alfrid though. I hated Alfrid more than the love triangle if you’d believe it.

Ypu mean the Nazgul on their dragons would just shrug? I’d imagine they have balistas or other warmachines that could make the traveling above Mordor uncomfortable.

Sauron never thought they would want to destroy it. If they did the most obvious beeline towards Mt. Doom, he would realize this and would make it impossible.

There certainly are things I liked better in the books, I remember that much. But when judging entirety of books vs entirety of movies movies were better in my opinion.

(I’m only talking LotR itself ofc)

Eh. It is a popular meme but I think even with the info the movie gives it is pretty clear why. They need to go in secret and Sauron and Saruman have spies/scouts about (like the Sarumans birds).

And even if they flew to near Mordor undetected, the giant freaking Eye would spot them - if the patroling Nazgul wouldn’t spot them first.

Whoever still played need to be really invested. So wouldn’t be surprised if you are right

I watched and loved the movies before reading the books so my opinion may be biased, but I think Lord of the Rings movies were more enjoyable than books.

I see how the books were great in their time and the worldbuilding of the books is amazing - but the movies do great job at streamlining the story and making it fun.

Perfect candidate for the immortal snail that would be out to get you.

With the decoy snail sidekick of course.

Well it got one thing right, but missed important context. Aushwitz was primarily a labor camp and crematoria like they had there couldn’t handle it. Aushwitz had the extermination just like a side hustle, so they didn’t need it too big.

Now the likes of Birkenau, not far from Aushwitz - that was a death camp. And with much more massive crematoria to handle the death toll. And that crematoria was destroyed by Nazis when it was clear the Allies will reach them because it was clear evidence of genocide.

Aushwitz is an important site and while chilling and terrible, it doesn’t compare to what was happening elsewhere.

Alternative title: Anthem servers are still online.

I thought it shut down years ago.

Not too long ago it looked like it wouldn’t make it. There was a sudden surge in the past days, it was absolutely bonkers to see. It went by like 10k an hour yesterday and today

they’ve had reports of "non-citizens spoofing signatures on the EU initiative

I was afraid this might be happening. Let’s hope it won’t cause more harm than good.
