Oh look at that. it’s ‘Turns out corporations aren’t your friends’ o’clock.

Happy to help :)

So… z-library? https://z-lib.gs/

The one minority group EVERYONE has a non-zero chance of joining, and the one minority group nobody wants to really think about for that exact reason.

They would rather spend money making hurdles for people like me, my brother, my sister, my aunt, and millions of others to bash against until we give up than to spend that same money and time Helping.

Same boat man. ‘OK I’ll throw a few schmeckles in because the author does need the compensation, but i’m getting the actual book elsewhere.’

Meta, even if you aren’t seeding it still counts, because if you had the books already you wouldn’t need to grab them from elsewhere, and you refusing to seed makes you a fucking leech.

‘We investigated ourselves and found no wrongdoing.’

So where’s the RIAA/MPAA/etc now that it’s a Big Company doing this? They were the ones screaming murder about torrenting in years past. So go on. Go after these guys who are doing piracy on a literally industrial scale.

Considering the voltages and amps going through it is safe to assume those are fairly thick solid copper wires yes.

I’m going to disagree with you on the sentement. We need a better infrastructure for EVs, and non-tesla vehicles can use those charging stations (either via adaptor, or a few use that same plug type.)

oh that isn’t to say I don’t have digital, backed up in a few places. I simply recognize that legally speaking everyone is now outright saying ‘you do not own this we are giving you a license to use it.’

yea no. I am going to ensure my things will go either to my niece, or to those I feel are deserving when i shuffle off this mortal coil.

This isn’t nostalgia. This is ‘Unless i own the physical thing, they can take it away because with digital you never really own it you only have a license to use it.’

Considering how Reddit for the past few years has refused to play nice with Firefox to the point it eats posts and comments? Lemmy immediately effectivly confirming a thing went through feels nice.

Don’t worry. In the US the current administration/regime is trying to remove all that. the CDC is already communications dark and the US has withdrawn from WHO.

Where are all the SHTF Cosplayers?

The real life SHTF isn’t like red dawn or mad max…

Probably some kind of plugin or script to run… i forget the specifics because literally grab the kindle version, then search z-library.

They hired Stanley Kubrick to fake the moon landing.

Which worked out in the end because he insisted the only way he could get the shot right was to land on the moon.

My stepdad has started using ‘and you believe we landed on the moon’ and yet won’t actually state he doens’t. Instead ‘oh well you strongly care about thing and i’m just-’

NO YOU AREN’T YOU FECKLESS SHITBAG.

Keep in mind i am not at all going to claim it is… Good. or logical… or any of that, but it had the almighty BALLS to go big with being WEIRD.

thus I have my personal library backed up on calibre. Wonderful software that’s been around for twenty fiveish years.

I have a few books I bought, but even then, I grab from z-library. More portable and no DRM.
