I'm looking to change to a better streaming service which offers better selection of movies / tv shows etc. I currently have Netflix (no I don't pay for it) but I've seen most of the tv shows / movies on it and the rest of it is shit.
I know there's a lot of competitors in the market such as Amazon, Tidal, NOWTV (UK) etc. What does /g/ think is the best streaming service available?
I'm also aware theres a lot of free streaming services such as Kodi or whatever, but what does /g/ think of them and what's the best option?

side question: do they have streaming service for japanese television? I would love to watch japanese cable tv (and have when I visited there)
Streaming media dis-services such as Netflix and Spotify require nonfree client programs that impose digital restrictions mechanisms (DRM) intended to stop the user from saving a copy of the data being streamed through her own computer. You should never use DRM that you can't break, so you should not use these dis-services unless you can break their DRM.
A friend once asked me to watch a video with her that she was going to display on her computer using Netflix. I declined, saying that Netflix was such an affront to freedom that I could not be party to its use under...

If you're looking for something like Netflix, Hulu is similar. Kodi is xbox media center, unless that has some other meaning in the UK like a motorized rollingham.
What are the advantages of the Kobo e-reader series over the Kindle ones?
If you do not sign into Amazon they are virtually the same. The base Kobo model without a light, like the Kindle 4 is $89, but you can get a used Kindle 4 for $30 on Amazon. The only other advantage I see is that Kobo uses epub and Amazon uses shitty KOBI but it's easy to convert.
Do people seriously read extensively on these things? I can understand for manga or something but if in reading a lengthy book there is just a different feeling in reading a physical copy. It's a different experience psychologically
>>51318930
They are great for books that you read sequentially. Printed books are great for random access.
>>51318930
If it works for you. I like having a single device for reading all of my books. It's also very easy to put books on quickly.

>tfw Win XP died
she's graduated from most bad habits old people have with tech and can stand an upgrade.
but she hates to throw anything away, and i hate clutter and useless shit not being used taking up space.
if i buy her a low-level win-10 laptop for ~$250, what should/could i do with the old machine? make some use of it? can i get any cash from it?
Fill it with hard drives and have a low power storage server?
>>51318614
only room for one HD
no extra connectors for extras without buying new main board... unless you know some trick i'm currently oblivious to
>>51318614
>low power
>Pentium 4 with hyperthreading
Nope.
The uses for that the are dwindling rapidly. You could maybe throw an AGP GT210 in there and use it for XBMC (or whatever they're calling themselves these days) but even that is a bit of a stretch.>>51318614

do everything you can to eliminate. run a full scan as deep as possible and again kill all bad shit that pops up in quarantine.
kills its process/service and remove the program.
What you really should do is wipe the machine, thats the only correct course of action in this case.

see at the bottom of this MWB pic, also check Enable self-protection module
AND
Enable self-protection early start
this should protect the MWB from any virus/trojan etc... so it's not manipulated by your new kickass.trojan.jpg
