“No, because *proceeds to explain the definition of a service problem *”

My guy if they export only some mangas and animes, much slower, and with lower quality than pirates, then shoot the characters with the american ray; why should i pay them instead of having a superior and closer to original experience?

I’m already paying for HDDs and other hardware for my home media library, I’d rather pay for a service and save my time, but they won’t do it right.

Even for unexpected/accidental deaths, this has an easy fix: Put my bitwarden master password on my will.

I would 100% use this HPL-v2 for all of my (temporary) foss projects. It’s just genius. I mean, good luck keeping track of the current owner, Nintendo lawyers.

Maybe it’s just me, but the only topic where i see people consistently complaining about paywalls is in publicly-financed research articles behind a paywall, which should definitely not be legal and fuck universities doing that shit. As for general news i haven’t seen so much complaints, but then again, maybe i just wooooshed through them.

Personally I don’t really care in this context because i can go to the source if I’m that invested and don’t want to pay, their job is to keep track and sometimes summarize what happens in the industry. Seems reasonable to either pay or invest my own time. Adblock is non negociable tho.

The XZ topic was way more complicated than that and overly exaggerated by some people. Open source is still the closest thing we have to “safe by default”.

Still, as someone else stated, if you’re not hosting it’s not truly open source as you can’t really verify the actual code running behind the server.

I haven’t tried it myself (tho I’m planning to do so soon), but check Onju voice, it tries to do something kinda similar.

I hope someone tries do pull that on an echo dot. Good hardware, shit software.

Edit: Update with related links.

The Onju Github i forgot before, tho it’s linked in pcbway. It has instructions to set it up along with home assistant and even a matrix bridge.

Onju voice satellite is a different project using the same custom pcb. This one looks better integrated with home assistant and has an actual wakeword system (unlike og onju, which doesn’t have one by design). This one feels more like “better private alexa for home assistant”.

Toggling on data collection without informing the user would mean billions of dollars worth of fines in Europe, so I doubt that happens regularly.

More like a few thousand euros symbolic fine and an angry letter saying “don’t be an ass again pls our infrastructure depends on you” after years of blatant abuses and anti-consumer practices, followed by an ambiguous law (with positive effects affecting only european users) they will definitely not manage to circumvent withing the next week and a half. Not this time 🤡.

The problem here is the fact that most people just do not give a fuck about this; that’s why there’s no coverage in the (mainstream) media, why the only people who cares end up just leaving windows and why this kind of options are usually opt-out and they can actually afford to silently re-enable them cuz who’s gonna check anyways? Random people ranting on meme communities about my fancy malware?

Everything is open source for this guy after using this simple trick. Big techs HATE him!

My god i shouldn’t have read the thread you crossposted from

Glorious ship btw

A version with different distros would be nice. I want to see blood here.

Who said anything about torrenting something illegal 👀

As far as I’m concerned, everything i discuss here is for educational purposes only and even if you share info about “your” setup, it’s just hypothetical. Not your fault if someone you totally don’t know has the same setup you described and uses it for illegal activities.

That’s the thing, most desktop distros come with a web browser preinstalled, but:

• It’s usually firefox or librewolf, which are objectively superior to edge in any scenario.
• You can uninstall it right away with either a three word command or open a program with a big red “uninstall” button, no console needed.
• Nothing breaks, the system literally doesn’t give a fuck if you even have a web browser at all.
• If you want another browser then go for it! You can even use edge if you’re a psychopath. Your system wont judge you, but i might sorry-
• It will never reinstall crap you uninstalled and set it the default on a random mandatory system update.

Tried a few of those once, only one worked and mfker installed itself in the next update. Uninstalling Windows was easy af tho.

Open Subtitles to the rescue

Upvoted & i want to end my life now

…Did you just speculated a terrifyingly credible AI-generated Microsoft ad disguised as genuine tech support?

Now I’m curious. How would a NasaOS look like? Would it even be good for general use? Would they just focus on optimization? Could they finally beat Hannah Montana linux, the superior OS?

Windows? Hardware testing? Testing in general? LMAOOO

Either that or stop babysitting canonical and use debian instead

Earlier this week i ended up pirating some games i actually own because it was easier that way than the official one (which involved going through 3 freaking launchers for one game!), so there’s the answer lol.
