I hope this is good!!! So excited!

So in this case Amex is a person's name and not a portmanteau of American Express?

Ohhh okay! That party sounds pretty good actually. There are a couple episodes of some TV shows I'd love to have that I'm missing lol

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I imagine that qBittorrent doesn't automatically search for better versions of your media, automatically rename and move files to your specification, automatically evaluate search results to choose a download that matches your desired quality, automatically search for desired media when it is released (like new episodes of a currently running TV show), automatically import subtitle files or extras to your library, or automatically grab metadata for all your media.

Those parts do sound pretty good lol

What's the advantage of downloading these over setting up the qbittorrent search function to search multiple torrent sites when I type something in there, as it does for me now?

Thatd a good idea. I really need to do the same thing: apply and take interviews all the time even when I'm not looking to change. At the very least, it'll help me know what to frameworks and platforms to study for instead of studying broad tech interview concepts.

I'm always willing to take positions different from my comfort zone but it feels like no one wants to hire me unless I have experience with all their tech stack and languages or am willing to take a pay cut. But I can't in this environment, I have loans and a family and expensive rent and groceries to pay for. It's kind of annoying because I actually would like to change it up lol.

It is a little strange to me that people say it won't change things because the AI will need someone to tell it what to do. It's like saying robots won't change the automotive industry because someone will need to fix them. Well it turns out, if you only need one person to fix all the machines or tell the AI what to do, then the companies will fire everyone else, especially if that was their main skill set and where their experience was. They can get a different job but it will be entry level and they might not be able to live the same quality of life, support a family, fill their retirement or pay debts they may have accrued with the expectation of a certain salary.

There are manufacturing center towns that are basically graveyards now because of that (yes, also globalist and international capitalism, too, but it's both. Jon Oliver had an episode about it with sources). The same thing happened to call centers and operators before. Things sucked for certain people during that time, and from an abstract POV society was okay, but imagine if the person it sucked for is you. Then you can understand why lots of people are freaking out.

That typo was totally worth learning about this

Ah, I didn't even think about it in geographic sense. Makes total sense. And ya, the people in power never care about that petty shit like national unity, it's just what they use to get the country on board with the next war or whatever, so with hindsight not sure why I went down that tangent lol.

Well, while I understand them wanting it back with that context, it's also been long enough that it feels like there's no point or at least not worth the trouble for them, either lol. I'm just anti-war on all fronts. It's just, idk, why at this point? National pride? It's not like the have a ton of resources, like oil like Alaska does, do they? Just the tech sector, and China could probably catch up on chip manufacturing part of that in time or just get them through trade.

But maybe people's grandparents can still probably remember when they were united and we need more time. Plus, I know they can get pretty nationalistic over there, too. I'm sure the US would try to take Hawaii in 50 years of whatever if a foreign country helped them separate from us, even though I'd like to think if they didn't want to rejoin, we wouldn't. But who knows, I've seen our right-wing in power 🙄

Even American cars have spyware. Not sure what your choice is there. At this point, I'll settle for cars with physical buttons for climate and other commonly used controls.
