You’re already familiar with Kodi, so install that on your Android TV. I have an Nvidia Shield with Kodi, and it just plays movies straight from my server. You should be able to use the TV’s remote to control Kodi without worrying about the VPN.

NHTSA references several SAE standards in their regulations, but they don’t update the references very often, if ever. Many of the referenced standards date back to versions from the '70s and '80s. Back around 2012 I contacted SAE to find out if they provided a package of standards incorporated by reference in NHTSA regulations. I was told they don’t provide such a package, and they couldn’t even sell me the individual standards I needed because they were “out of date”. My only option through SAE was to buy the latest version.

Shortly afterwards Public.Resource.Org posted the standards, and I copied them. But I thought they had lost their court case.

Nice to find out I was wrong.

I was on PIA, but they were bought by Kape a few years ago. Kape, previously known as Crossrider. Crossrider, known primarily for developing adware and PUPs.

Ahoy! The seas are calm, and the wind is ever at your back.

Away! The days are long, but the nights are sweet upon the wooden deck.

Daily Wire? Yeah, no thanks.

Tell me at least the main characters learn a heart-warming lesson at the end.

Friar Cuck

Cuckleberry Finn

Cuck (character from A Midsummer Night’s Dream)

Cuck Hunter (excellent game included with original NES consoles)

NVIDIA and/or Google has started showing full screen ads on the Shield.

Do NOT run a crack or patch of any kind. They may pass a Malwarebytes scan, or test clean on virustotal, but one I just ran across tried downloading a bunch of data when I ran it in a VM. Don’t risk it, I’ve been burned in the past. And now with online banking, Paypal, Venmo, cryptocurrency, it’s just not worth it.

You might try installing the software in a VM, running the patch in the VM, and then moving the software over to your primary, but I would still be worried about that.

The other people here say you’ll probably be fine, but you need to ask yourself if it’s worth giving up any of your passwords to an attacker. At best you’re looking at a completely benign patch, and a working installation of the software. At worst…it can be pretty bad.

Wait for a keygen, or go without the software. Or, and I do this a lot lately, look around for a free, open source equivalent.

Hat? Unnecessary. But an eye-patch helps reduce nausea when using VR goggles to search for booty.

I have no idea what any of this is, but Japanese Mom 2 (in Korean) sounds promising.

Years ago Pirate Bay made a big deal about starting a 3D model repository, but it really didn’t catch on. Too many places to get free models already. Granted there are some places you can buy really high detail models from movies and games (is gambody still around? Will I get a strike for mentioning gambody like I did on reddit?).

If you really want to torrent 3D models, I’ll tell you what I tell everybody. qBittorrent has a very nice search function that, once set up properly, will hit a lot of public trackers straight from the interface. If you have a specific model in mind, give that a shot. Or just search for “3d model” or “STL” or whatever, and you’ll get hits.

Seconding SmartTube on android TV. No ads, can automatically skip all sorts of content in videos (spoken ads, self-promotion, introduction segments, etc. etc. etc.) I dread the day it stops working.

That’s weird. Mine just kept downloading the old season episodes.

Scofflaw! Scofflaw I say!

It’s Disenchantment. I just grabbed Season 5 manually and I’m going to put them in there as Season 3. It’s over anyway so I can just delete the show from Sonarr.

I use Mullvad. The map says its only relationship is a sisterhood with Firefox VPN (they use the same servers, but different software).
