Exactly why "protest votes" are such a monumentally stupid idea. In a referendum, people vote for what outcome the people want, and the people will get what they voted for. Do they think the ballot box is supposed to be able to tell who genuinely wanted to leave the EU and who was just being a cheeky asshole?
You could imagine it like a vending machine that's supposed to dispense soda if you put Euro coins in, but it'll equally dispense soda if you put other flat pieces of metal in it.
I don’t know about Tony Blair or Bryan Stevenson, but Trump’s definitely in the company of self-righteous assholes when it comes to Mother Teresa and Bono.

Malware can be added to any file - I don’t need a condescending “lmao” attitude to remind me. Having active antimalware measures in place helps drastically reduce my chances of encountering it over not using anything at all, though.
I have a Synology DS918+. Older model, but it’s still chugging along and it serves me and my Plex users well. That said, I don’t plan on getting a new one if/when this one dies. They reversed their decision on the vendor lock-in for drives, but the fact they did that at all really put me off.
I get their reasoning behind wanting to vendor lock the drives - Synology is a great chassis for amateur network storage enthusiasts, the kind of people who likely blew their budget on the NAS chassis thinking everything would work fine long-term when they slapped some cheap used desktop hard drives into the box. The shitty drives eventually die, and they blame Synology for their own bad hardware choices. That’s not an issue I struggle with, though, so I’m just thinking I’m no longer Synology’s target customer.
These days I’d recommend just building your own rig if you can swing that. And if you do go with a prebuilt chassis, for fuck’s sake don’t just slap any old hard drives in there!
I’d guess someone with that mentality started making crotch spawn at 16 or 17, perpetuating a genetic line that will continue to be about as useful to society as an indoor kite. The Stupid breed like rabbits.
I've also read in a few locations that flaresolver supposedly doesn't work anymore, but it seems to be chugging along just fine in my setup. If I try to use the 1337x tracker without flaresolver, retrievals will fail every time. Including a screenshot here of the most recent flaresolver logs. I do run flaresolver through my VPN connection - not sure if that would have anything to do with it.
I use and highly recommend Cleanuparr. Kills stalled torrents, and has a malware component to block known malware torrents.
