Has someone asked what there IS to defend if not people’s lives?

The thing is, just like software subscriptions, you aren’t buying a piece of software, you’re buying the right to use it. You can be pretty sure that they have legalese in the eula that says that your right to use the software expires with non-use. I wouldn’t be surprised if they can even let it expire by simple deciding to no longer support it.
And what do you think will happen if their license servers ever go offline?
For the longest time I never bought anything digital, but I eventually caved to steam. I still blatantly refuse to join other digital platforms, except gog where I can download the software and it works without any remote server.
Same for music: I refuse to use Spotify. I buy from 7digital and the like, where I can download either mp3 or FLAC.
Ik ben Vlaming. Je parle français, English, ein bisschen Deutsch, och jag talar bara lite Svensk. La plupart effectivement appris pour aller en voyage, aussi bien que quelques mots de lituanien (long oublié), et je sais toujours me présenter et commander deux bières en slovaque.
Dvo pivo, prosim!
Technically, no, but then they need another source of revenue, because servers at that scale aren’t cheap.
Lemmy is more reddit-like, while mastodon is more twitter-like.
They do federate, so yes, you should be able to see, like and comment between them.
As a drinker of both, I’ll have you know coffee a baked bean beverage, thank you very much.
I feel it necessary to make an important point here: there is a reason flash is dead. It’s horrible insecure. Fortunately the interest base for this kind of thing is fairly small, because someone with ill intent would not have a hard time providing a malicious swf and gain access to your system.
Now maybe - hopefully - the steam deck makes good use of various sandboxing technologies, but I’d recommend proceeding with care anyway.
Hmm… Wonder if the haters would avoid stalls with such stickers for fear of catching the gay…
Make it a denial of service attack!
For seeding? Nah. Not unless you have a ton of upload and loads of peers making requests.
Get something that has an internal mirror, that’ll give you double the read throughput AND some redundancy.
As if any spyware worth it’s salt didn’t install itself as service with an innocuous name. Something like “Facebook” or “TikTok”.
I don’t have a guide handy, but I’d assume VLC could do that.
Inside jokes are part of the glue that makes a community.
You’re totally entitled to not liking them, of course, but I fear such a feature is going to see so little use that it’s not worth implementing. Could of course just be part of a user-submitted tagging system, where you and the like-minded can tag these for each other.
It’s been a while for me, but iirc most ISPs do offer their own servers. However, free Usenet servers are going to have very limited retention - in the order of days. The advantage of paid subscriptions is that they offer retention in the weeks or months.
It’s the MS part that bothers me. That it’s now exclusive is just one thing that makes them shit.
I think it also helps that it wasn’t intentional. Nobody likes the obvious corp whoring for a quick cash grab.
So in one post, you tell me there is finally going to be a new Indy game, AND that it’s going to be owned by MS…
I don’t like you, OP.
Is it in the start menu? If so, you should be able to drag it or right-click on that.
It undeniably does, but what would be interesting is a comparison of how much water is needed per liter of milk and various substitutes.
The imgur Android app has been an absolute mess for about a week now, failing to open many posts, and even the ones it does give an error that it can’t load the ç post stream’.
It started around the Reddit protests, so i assumed it was overload due to user influx, but surely they should have been able to spin up extra capacity by now…
So I’m wondering if it’s only me or if others are seeing that as well?
Quite the opposite. Use drives from as many different manufacturers as you can, especially when buying them at the same time. You want to avoid similar lifecycles and similar potential fabrication defects as much as possible, because those things increase the likelihood that they will fall close to each other - particularly with the stress of rebuilding the first one that failed.
