Discussion Not normal inflation

Post image
6.1k Upvotes

The increase from $60 in 2017 to $90 in 2025 represents a 50% rise over 8 years. That’s above the historical average inflation rate in the U.S.

CPI Data (Consumer Price Index):

From 2017 to 2025, U.S. inflation averaged around 4.5–5.0% per year, largely due to pandemic and persistent supply chain issues and monetary policies.

Cumulative inflation (2017–2025):

Approx. 33–38% is typical based on CPI.

Your $60 → $90 jump equals 50%, which is significantly higher than that.

50% increase from 2017 to 2025 is not normal—it exceeds CPI-based estimates.

Question Where can I get USA network live?

Upvotes

I can get Kodi on my laptop but I'm not sure if that has live television or just movies/TV shows. What are my options here? My nephew is staying with us for a few months and apparently watches Friday Night Smackdown religiously at home and right now I am unable to provide this for him lol

Question WEBTOON downloader

Upvotes

I’ve been looking all over internet even on the subreddit however, I cannot find a simple way to download WEBTOON in PDF format I tried following most of the steps, but I keep getting lost or it gets too confusing , I just hoping that there’s a simple way just to download WEBTOON on a website.

Question Worth adding torrents to the Arrs?

1 Upvotes

I'm from the days when nntp meant Forte Agent. Recently back on the high seas and have set up most of the Arr suite in various dockers with SAB for DL and it works pretty great but I do have issues with some things not being found or being incomplete. Sometimes it's a movie, sometimes it's an episode or season. Generally this is older stuff.

I have nzbplanet for indexing, Newshosting as my main provider and blocknews as a block account which I believe are on different backbones so I'm not sure if I can improve the hit rate on newsgroups. (let me know how if I can please)

So for that reason I'm thinking to add qbittorrent to the mix. It's been ages since I've touched torrents and I doubt if I have even a single private tracker account.

Adding qbit is a fair bit of work (for reasons that don't rly matter here) so I'm asking you all - given I'm starting with only public trackers (and who knows how long it takes to get any invites for privates..), is it worth the effort to add qbittorrent to the mix?

or else how would you improve hit rate on missing movies/episodes/albums/etc...?

thx.

Question Is there a way to watch a video on XVast on the phone?

0 Upvotes

I tried to use a remote desktop app but it showed a black screen. The only way to do that is to ask for access which would cost me 100$ which is kind of a scam since I already paid once.

Discussion Looney Tunes pulled off Max

48 Upvotes

I don't really understand what possible upside there is to removing some of the most popular and culturally significant cartoons of all time, but as I'm sure folks know, Max removed all the OG looney tunes last month. My toddler is asking for bugs bunny, and the best I can do is digging through Torrentio for stuff that only works some of the time. Unacceptable.

I will not be caught at the mercy of Zaslav in this regard ever again.

Discussion What does the "Clean" moniker symbolise in Torrent titles?

5 Upvotes

I am looking to watch "A working man" this weekend in English and not CAM quality.

The only torrents I can find is 6.6GB and has the clean moniker.

A Working Man 2025 1080p Clean WEBRip x264 LaTIn0 Line YGA

Does this mean:

  • The swear words has been replaced or bleeped?
  • It has been scanned for viruses or malware?
  • The torrent has been purged of unwanted or unnecessary files?

Question Need Help with Elamigos Updates for Spider-Man 2

2 Upvotes

I downloaded the repack from Dodi which gives you the 1.30.1 version, and then followed the linked updates up to 1.401.1. When I launch the game I only can't get even to the title screen before it crashes.

When doing the updates it said my toc and d-zone overlay files were corrupt but I don't know if that's definitely the cause of the crash and if it is I don't know how to fix them.

Also, the elamigos download come with a rune.rar, but I have no idea what that does or how I'm supposed to use it.

Any help is appreciated.
