“I TOLD YOU I DON’T HAVE A PASSWORD”

Why aren’t you wearing a suit?

It’s being savvy

I had the same problem and eventually abandoned it. Even though I had good results with it finding content, the book metadata is usually terrible and I end up having to manually fix it in Calibre and then force download metadata and cover art.

If I’m already having to do that anyway, might as well just acquire the book manually and import it myself.

Amazon pro tip: if you find something that has lots of good reviews, sort them by Recent. Those ones are the reviews by the people who were suckered in by the initial dump of 5 star fake reviews and you’ll probably see a lot more honesty from those people.

Even better: run Fakespot on the listing to see if it detects manipulation or fake reviews.

Best: don’t use Amazon to buy things.

Some people prefer to make people wait 15 seconds while they fool around with their settings before they can make their audience watch a 10 second video they didn’t want to see in the first place.

On the surface, the policy sounds completely reasonable. That kind of thing is probably standard in most schools the world over.

What’s insane is that we’re at a point where “welcoming people” is offensive to somebody.

Or maybe more realistically, it’s easy to feign offence at a bland statement like that and be a bigot without being forced to say the quiet part out loud.

This policy is designed to maintain consistency across all classrooms while ensuring that no one group is targeted or offended by the display of certain items.

Mmmm.

They’ll feel better after sending a few dozen fundraising texts to half of America.

I have to assume they had already bought tickets before the fuckery all started.

They want riots so they have a reason to put troops on the streets and “come down hard” to please their base.

I can relate to that. One time my toddler said they didn’t want to try my pudding and I’ve been trying to destroy the world ever since.

I realize it’s a different toddler in my scenario.

Just clarifying, are you offering your blood or kidney, or do you just like have a bunch sitting around?

You should be able to play a video that’s at 100% even if the torrent isn’t complete.

It could be a codec issue? If you’re using windows there’s a tool called MediaInfo you can install that’ll analyze a video file and tell you if it’s corrupt and what codecs it uses. You might just need to install a codec pack like K-Lite if your system doesn’t already have the codec you need. Or, like an other commenter said, try opening it in VLC which has killer codec support built in.
