From a lore point of view, they're not that bad and it all makes sense when you consider what the Wachowskis were TRYING to do. All the sequels and all the media associated with the sequels were ambitious to say the least. Reloaded, 4 shorts from the Animatrix, Enter The Matrix (the game), and a collection of comics all tie together the overall lore. it's a lot. Basically back in the day if you wanted the COMPLETE story for Reloaded you had to watch like 2 shorts from the Animatrix and play Enter The Matrix. The issue is for the third film, while it was filmed at the same time as Reloaded, doesn't really expand on some of the stuff revealed in the other media that tied into Reloaded.

The third film simply felt like was something that was forced on the Wachowskis by Warner Bros. Like I imagine very little was cut from both films because they really couldn't cut anything and it was clearly evident they NEEDED to cut stuff.

All that being said The Matrix Online continues the story and expands the lore, which was canon, and it actually got quite a bit better.

Revenge of the Sith? I mean that kinda fits. Bad Guy convinces Good Guy to join him to build an Empire.

The layoffs also hit Twitch which has had a notorious bot problem for years. So now they're going to use bots to fight bots?

Honestly the best thing Amazon could do is just shut down twitch completely. It's become a dumpster fire of its former self. It used to be about people playing games and now it's about which streamer is sexually assaulting which other streamer and dudes putting shock collars on dogs.

not only was it just a clip show, it was a clip show that was the SEASON FINALE.

basically Carney took a look south and said "you know what? some of these ideas...they're not too bad"

Meanwhile PP is flipping his lid saying "fucker stole my ideas!"

because all the political parties and politicians here in Canada don't actually care about the people. Unlike other places where their politicians pretend to care, here in Canada they will straight up tell you they don't care. Here it's all about how we can make as much money as possible while pleasing our corporate benefactors and they will straight up tell you that's exactly what they're doing. They don't hide it because they don't need to hide it.

I mean hell just look at the whole return to office, bike lane, and rental shit here in Ontario. they didn't sugar coat any of that and straight up said "businesses in Ontario and specifically in Toronto want you back in the office, they don't want bike lanes, and they want to make more money from rentals so that's what we're going to do. here are studies on all of the above which were provided to us by said businesses."

as everyone else has said soulseek and nicotine+.

If you want to get your spotify playlists from soulseek use this script: https://github.com/fiso64/slsk-batchdl

basically you export your spotify playlists as a csv and slsk-batchdl will take that and try to find everything on soulseek and download it for you. anything it can't find it'll let you know. it might take awhile, if you have a server I'd run it on that via screen and just let it run overnight (that's what I did)

Keep in mind that Soulseek has A LOT of audiophiles on it so you'll find a lot of high quality audio and FLACs. if FLAC is too big for you and you're fine with mp3s you c an use Nicotine+ to just search for mp3s.

Not with any of the current models, none of them are concerned with security or scaling.

Now I know why the bugs did what they did.
