Stremio works on android TV. I use the Stremio + RD + Torrentio setup, it’s great for essentially mimicking the Netflix experience in that you can sit down and browse movies/series, watch trailers then just select something to watch right then and there. It’s intuitive so my family can use it easily.
If you mainly watch movies on your PC/laptop then there may not be that much material gain from the above setup - but it is a good option if wanting to fully replace the Netflix-esque experience.
That’s more complicated than Stremio to setup though, and still requires you to download the movie/show before watching, correct? Stremio just requires adding Torrentio in the app and linking your RD account once - then it’s easy times.
Listen, I think Jellyfish is great - but it really is a horse’s for courses scenario. The Stremio + Torrentio + RD triad just works for a lot of people that need a wife proof solution (pardon the sexism) and don’t want to store all this content.
Out of interest, does Jellyfish have ability to list Netflix, HBO catalogues? That’s a convenient add-on in Stremio where you can essentially browse a specific streaming service’s catalogue, or at least their most popular items.
Yeah, I was being a bit flippant but it’s true that FOSS is more compatible with open science. To be honest nothing I use anymore is paid. My testing software, analysis software and modelling software is all FOSS and developed by Academics in my area and I honestly don’t see an advantage to paid versions. Shit, we even use Inkscape to edit figures.
Russia is still making things, it’s just difficult for them to process payments within their countries borders. No reason a reseller in EU would have the same issues.
The question is whether right now is the best time to support Russian businesses.
If you have your heart set on getting one then also consider buying second hand.

You’re talking about pirating the pirates though. RD is so cheap compared to a streaming subscription and essentially free given the amount of content it provides. Stremio is user friendly enough for anyone to use. Just pay for the extra subs.

It’s not the copyright law that is lax in these countries, but rather the level of monitoring and enforcement required by ISPs. For most ISPs they gain nothing by sending anti-piracy letters to customers in the absence of any particular law that mandates ISPs enforce anti-piracy. Instead they may find customers leave and go to a competitor. The most they do is the bare minimum required by Govt, usually blocking certain domains and only sending letters if a third party has done the hard work of identifying the IP address of a pirate. When studios sue ISPs they generally lose, or go for settlements (see BMG vs Cox). ISPs have spent a lot of time and money lobbying to be left out of piracy enforcement.
You could compare it to underage drinking, a bar’s main incentive to not serve underage customers is to avoid large fines for doing so. If those fines didn’t exist one might assume many bars would be more lax on checking ID. A bar might argue that if underage drinking is illegal then that’s a matter between the drinker and the police, it’s not the bar’s job to spend money on security to check patron IDs. This is essentially what ISPs have argued.
ABUJA, Nigeria (AP) — Nigeria’s lawmakers on Thursday approved the new government’s first supplemental budget, which includes huge allocations for SUVs and houses for the president, his wife and other public officials, sparking anger and criticism from citizens in one of the world’s poorest countries....
Bit misleading. While Nigeria may be poorer than many western nations, it is the 2nd richest African nation, ahead of SA even, and is ranked 47 out of 173 regarding wealth.
Further, people living in poverty while the elite enjoy a gilded life is not an Africa-centric narrative.

I used Mullvad, found them great for everything and would be my only VPN if they were big enough to facilitate streaming via other countries. Due to smaller number of servers it isn’t possible to use a lot of streaming services with them…I found this out when o/s and needing to VPN into my home country to access my geo-locked streaming service.
Anything that isn’t Mullvad will get downvoted because many here have brought over the Reddit hivemind mentality. Many of the downvoted VPS ITT are completely safe and fine, and actually offer greater functionality than Mullvad, but you can’t deny Mullvad are the top when it comes to privacy - not even using a username/email plus allowing btc payment.
On those rates 0.05 people in a room of 400 would be shot per year, so 1 person per 20 years.
It’d 1 person every 2 years in a room of 4,000.
Also those mental health numbers are off given the lifetime prevalence of most disorders being around 5%.
2/400 (0.5%) of the population identifying as trans would be 1,665,000 people - which may be plausible but idk, I generally work on the figure of ~4% of any population being LBGTQI.
You misinterpreted the NIH numbers. It isn’t 57% of 400 are untreated, but rather 57% of ~90 (NIH state 1 in 6/ 22.8% love with AMI). In any case though that ~90 figure relates to AMI which is a broad definition and includes very mild cases, whereas my numbers were related to SMI - which tends to be 5% (as supported by your NIH source). Having worked in the field, untreated schizophrenia is a lot more serious than untreated GAD or ADHD.
Wikipedia is only a source of concern if the primary sources it cites are unreliable, in the linked article they refer to ABS data which is the most accurate population data for that country. No LGBT question was asked in the more recent Australian census. The ~4% of population being homosexual was a talking point during our same sex marriage plebiscite, hence why I use it.
However, in recent US census data 3.3% of the population respond as being Lesbian or Gay, with 4.4% bisexual census.gov/…/census-bureau-survey-explores-sexual…. It’d be interesting to see how that percentage progresses as majority of positive respondents were in younger generations, while I doubt any will go from identifying as gay to then straight, we may see a decline in those who identify as bisexual as they age…but who knows.
Regardless, returning to the OC, the figures for trans were all around the 0.6 mark in most sources I saw, so the 2/400 in the OC is accurate.
Many Profs or labs will have a website where the paper is hosted too. It used to be that you could host on ResearchGate but publishers stamp that out routinely.
Fuck Subscriptions. Here is how to setup Streamio like a pro
