FF won't let me install BPC extension
SOLUTION: go to extensions.blocklist.enabled and turn it to false.
If you have a custom user.js or user-overrides.js you might want to just add this to the file.

The repo was on GitHub and mirrored on Gitlab for years. Then it got DCMA’d and went to codeberg and got DCMA’d again. Now it’s on gitflic because the Russians dgaf about American copyright law or IP law in general.

The differences between men and women
I can spot the Mickey7 posts without even seeing his name (assumption male). Honestly it’s a mildly fun game to play.

Books, board games, card games, charades, music, cook, photography, hikes. See if there are any interesting chores to do on the property.

Google will block sideloading of unverified Android apps starting next year
If you’re technical enough to sideload Android apps, you’re probably technical enough to install Graphene too.

In the shitpost’s defense, the shrimp is pictured doing lines of cocaine with a US banknote. So accuracy wasn’t the goal. Everyone knows that shrimp snort their lines with British currency.

What part of the human heart is “the cockles?”
There are two parts to this. The first is the word "cockles" and the second is using the word within the specific context of "the heart".
AFAI remember, this is from medieval times. Cockle was a term given to any part of the body that was sensitive or easily affected. It was pretty widely used at the time.
Medieval doctors didn't really view the heart as a single organ but the source of all of human emotions and the place where our soul resides. So emotions like love joy and grief lived in a specific, sensitive part of the heart called the cockles. And so the cockles was a small delicate region of the "heart", and the phrase cockles of the heart referred to this emotional center.

I'm pretty active in the av1 community. Most of us who use av1 encode our own from the raw blurays or high quality remuxes. Besides the av1 content on public trackers, I think I saw a group called onlyfaffs and another one called WhiskyJack who were both putting out some av1 content, but imo, their filesizes are too large, so I avoid them if possible.
The other thing to worry about is that most people who use av1 also convert the audio to opus. Fully opensource codecs and all that. The issue is you don't know what bitrate they are using for their conversion. So audio is a concern too when downloading av1 content.

Just got on first private tracker, want to start a seed
You probably have to wait a while to become an uploader.
An easy way to get lots of free upload is to download framestor remux files. If it’s marked “freeleech”, it won’t cost you to download but you’ll get all the upload credit.

Put it on any pastebin and then just post the link here. Nothing fancy.

Wait. What is an exit interview other than a c.y.a. for the company?
