You're not though, you are still buying those games. Go the extra mile and pirate them if you really feel the need to play games containing loot box mechanics while trying to "stick it to them"

I wouldn't say isolationist as I believe communities supporting each other, trading with each other and collaborating is key to making this world liveable for all. I just don't believe in foreign military operations doing anything accept asserting dominance and a show of power, and seeing as that was the sole reason "we" were in the middle east and all the meddling that the west has done both military and politically in the global south and the middle east is a blatant invasion of the sovereignty of other people.

Friends and family of mine have been / are in the military or military police, and I'll gladly tell them the same. You can be intelligent and educated, but at the end of the day you rent out your morals and sovereignty to some authority other than yourself.

Yet they will gladly shoot up farmers and whole villages in the middle east because their institution and higher ups say so as they continue to blindly believe the "we bring democracy" narrative.

If you are military in the information age, you are willfully ignorant.

Military personnel sell their morals to the highest bidder. They listen to the orders of their higher ups and hide behind the narrative that: "I'm just following orders" / "I don't make the rules".

It's what made me switch this weekend. I didn't know I missed the "Episode ends on (time)" functionality until I got it with Jellyfin, Holy shit that's so nice ❤️

As we received new network hardware from our ISP, and inevitably are getting a new IP address again with that, I'm looking into setting up a DDNS. I've wanted to check out DuckDNS.

They run their (free) service on AWS EC2 instances, though, and as I am currently also trying to end my reliance on Google and Amazon, I've got some more digging to do. If anyone has a good, European (or heck, federated?) solution, hmu!

+1 for mint. I've been using pop, zorin and manjaro, but since I've used mint I completely switched to daily driving it on my personal devices and my gaming PC, even going so far that I got it installed on the company laptop 👍
