Don’t call it “being trafficked”, call it “surprise random country visit”.

Gotta love how the “expert-approved strategies” don’t even mention that you should unionize and stop thinking that workers’ rights are “comunism”.

I’m testing this this evening. My only gripe with soulseek is that if I want to download a playlist from spotify, I need to manually search for each song.

Soulseek is your friend. Setting up your library will be a tough step, but once done, you’ll feel so free that it will be worth it.

As a general rule, if a corpo is against something the EU does, it means your government should do it too because it’s a good thing.

Days ago I discovered vacuumtube for steam deck. It’s basically youtube with tv interface but with all the adblocks. It works wonders in game mode and even has controller support.

Go figure. Probably they are going to monitor traffic somehow to see if you visit certain websites and if you stay on them for too long, they flag you as a pirate. I’m not concerned, I browse the internet through a vpn.

In Italy they are aiming to block not only soccer streams but any audiovisual content. And they are threatening to fine people using the sites, unlike before, when only the site owners could be prosecuted.

Depends. If we take from when I was a kid? Probably something in the hundreds of thousands or even in the millions. I pirated pretty much everything because I lived in a very small town with no electronics shop so I couldn’t even buy games.

However, in the last 8 years or so? I find that I rarely pirate games anymore. Bundles, steam sales and refunds allow me to buy without worrying about liking the game.

Music is also something I don’t pirate anymore. I’m not one needing thousands of tracks, but rather a small and select collection. So I occasionally buy from bandcamp or other services so I can keep the music I want in my jellyfin server.

Films and shows are a different thing tho. At home whave netflix, so for most stuff we go there, but if something’s not there, I’ll pirate it. So… idk but… some hundreds? I’m not a fan of movies and most of the stuff I watch (which is not a lot) is on netflix.

This was a nice read. I just discovered today these post and it was a great sum up of news. Keep up the good work!

I’d argue that the “lesser degree” is not so lesser anymore. And it’s not that difficult to understand anymore. One year ago, you wouldn’t say “fuck israel” because you thought that the problem wasn’t israel but the nazi in charge.

Today? Today you think that maybe they put a nazi in charge because there was some wishful thinking on it from the population.

I’m starting to see more and more people saying things as “hitler did not finish the job” and images like these only make it worse. Israel is going down in a spiral towards nazism that makes more and more people be less concerned about being antisemitic.

Zionism is not hebraism, but the effort they are putting on making everyone believe so and the effort they are putting on appearing as nazis to the rest of the world, makes it difficult to feel empathy towards them if someone ever decides to go against them once again.

“Something happened somewhere, there’s people involved, some are dead”.

There you go.

A private jet, huh? So rich assholes that can’t be bothered to travel in a less polluting way. They won’t be missed.

I just ditched spotify completely in favour of a jellyfin private server that works like spotify for me. If I want to get recommendations, listenbrainz gives me a weekly list based on what i listen.

It’s been years that I’ve been saying that europe and america fucked up big time with EVs. I am a middle class person who wants to buy an electric car. What are my alternatives? Either a +40k € car from the traditional brands that offers me the bare minimum in battery capacity or a BYD that costs under 30k offering me something acceptable. Now, why should I not pick up byd? Because it’s chinese? Well, don’t want me to buy chinese? Then fucking make a car people can afford?

In europe, for an electric car of a non chinese brand it’s either 40k for the bare minimum, or +60k for the luxury segment that I can’t afford anyway.

Kalcker, a German national thought to be living in Switzerland, markets the bleach under the brand name “CDS”, for chlorine dioxide solution. His online brochures claim that the toxic chemical, which he admits is a disinfectant, can “eliminate pathogens” that cause disease.

As always, there’s a relevant xkcd

Can we skip all the trial and investigation part up to were the cunt pardons him? The outcome will be the same, but you’ll save some taxpayers money.

Are you telling me that arbitrarily sending citizens without due proccess to an abroad detention camp after being accused (without proof) of anything might be inconstitutional? I am shocked. Shocked I say.

Their ass. Expert in spewing shit.
