I'm pretty sure most browsers can. Pretty sure OP's complaint's a big misplaced on that one.

If my account is deleted, it’s done and over with.

And if you log out and walk away, it's done and over with. I'm not seeing much of a case for it being all that different. You're just choosing to stay any whine rather than leaving the account be.

Plus, I want to delete my posts.

Realistically, the nature of federation makes that practically impossible anyway. Even if deleted from kbin, your shitty posts have already been copied to all the federated instances.

Anyway, why do you care so much? Practically speaking, why does it matter to you personally whether my account is is deleted or whether I just stop posting but keep my account active? Why is it so important to you that I not be allowed to delete my account?

Because your pointless bitching shows up in my feed. To be clear, I don't give a shit if your account gets created or not. But if you logged out and walked away, kbin would be a bit better for it. Hence, I'm encouraging you to do that.

Why do I have to be on trial for wanting to delete my account?

You're not on trial; you're being told how to effectively solve this situation yourself. You're the one that posted this, knowing the vast majority of people who saw the post don't have any more ability to delete the account than you do.

you all won’t even let me leave!

That you choose to get defensive and keep using the account is a choice you're making, not something anyone's forcing upon you.

You can get USB-C to HDMI adapters that serve this purpose. I bought one a while back for like $15 on Amazon along with a cheap HDMI switch, and will use it to flip a spare monitor to watch video sometimes when I'm not working especially hard.

Practically speaking, what difference does it make versus just logging out and not using the account?

What a curious person. Two months ago, you didn't think you could ever use anything other than kbin. Now, you can't wait for the account to be deleted.

Maybe I'm missing something, but why not just log out, move on, and let ernest get to it when he gets to it? Dude has a massive to-do list with this project, and a non-impactful account deletion for a single ex-user is, rightfully, not terribly high of a priority.

I travel quite a bit, both for work and because I like going places. Often, internet is somewhere between unavailable and shitty. I keep a mess of music, movies, and tv shows synced/cached from Plex (which keeps fresh content via downloaded smart playlists that update as I watch episodes, etc.) and usually a couple of audiobooks in case I find myself making a long drive.

My comment mentioned why the SD card was removed. To paraphrase Linus, they’re the cheapest form of NAND storage and are extremely unreliable.

Your comment mentioned why you personally don't like using SD cards, though I disagree that it's a reason to remove the functionality completely, which is why I wouldn't buy a phone without a slot. If you're having such reliability issues, you should buy a higher quality SD card. They're objectively more reliable than cloud storage though, should you ever go somewhere where network connectivity is an issue. And 128 GB is almost nothing, kinda proving my point that this is more of a use case point than an argument against the feature.

Also if they hadn’t removed the jack I doubt we would have seen as much progress with truly wireless earbuds.

Given that they're still using Bluetooth, which is still terrible with any interference, low bandwidth, and has the same tedious connectivity problems it's had for the past decade...I'd argue we have yet to see that progress where it matters.

the market has moved on.

If that were true, there wouldn't be so many people vocally expressing why new products aren't adequate without these basic features.

That's not really a counter argument, you're just complaining about people talking about hardware features they want in a thread about...hardware features we want.

A counter argument would elaborate on why these features aren't relevant anymore, but you didn't include that. A counter argument would offer superior alternatives that should be used instead of SD cards or 3.5mm jacks, but you didn't include any of those. A counter argument would have addressed the initial arguments of cloud storage being an unnecessary expense and a wired jack being more reliable than Bluetooth, yet you didn't do that either.

Every thread about hardware has at least one guy bitching that phones should still have 3.5mm jacks and expandable storage, but the guy whining about him is just as consistent. Congratulations, you're a different layer of the exact problem you're complaining about.

RE: OP, 3.5mm jack and SD card, of course.

It's almost always going to be easier to obtain them through other means.

In the past, I've had good luck with StreamFab. It's expensive and Mac/Windows only, I believe. I had a smallisj use case and was able to automate mac address changes on a VM so could get by with the free trial. Been a while, so I can only vouch that it used to work well, not sure if anything's changed since then.

There was a pretty widespread crackdown on widevine decryption keys last year, iirc. That's the sort of thing you'd be looking for if you wanted to continue searching out other tools or possibly roll your own.

torrents didn’t have official support till fairly recently and it’s still a little wonky

I don't think this is true at all. They've both had solid torrent support for years, across multiple major version numbers. It's neither wonky nor recent.

I’d say you’re probably going to want some custom scripts. Have Radarr move the file and rename as normal and then your script to symlink it back to the torrent directory under the original filename so it can continue to seed without taking up double space for every movie

Further driving home that this dude is full of shit, hardlinking the files is enabled by default in both Sonarr and Radarr and certainly doesn't require any custom scripting.

OP, quit listening to random people online and spend some time reading the documentation yourself.

I can vouch for having killed Gale and Mizora accidentally on early runs on the default difficulty in similar ways, and they were only able to be brought back via reloading.

they’re literally taking money out of my pocket

That'd be pretty hard to do over the internet.
