They would probably have issues with publishers if you actually owned the titles.
It’d probably make them very heavily liable if for some reason Steam shut down, they had to make something unavailable for some reason, whatever.

It’s illegal if the fact that a service fee would be added wasn’t shared before ordering (on the menu / by the waiter /…)
Knife, scissors, stuff like that probably
Worst case, they can keep chugging along without any changes, except maybe stopping the donation “nag”.
It’s honestly kinda perplexing.
Everyone keeps talking about taxing the rich but when someone offers to give a nonprofit we all love a billion dollars it’s suddenly the worst thing on the planet.
If the deal were real of course
Honestly, they’d be stupid not to take it.
Imagine how much you could do with a billion. It’d perpetually sustain the organization, it’d allow them to hire translators and writers, resulting in better content for all of us.
Hell, I’d take it, and 99.9% of people on this planet would too.
It being a status symbol becomes kind of irelevant if every other person has it
They do, unfortunately
I was mostly kidding, though it depends on the problem itself - if I need an explanation for a function argument, no point testing shit if the docs answer it in 15 seconds. If it’s something more solution-y, I might do some testing before consulting the papers
Yea coz that’s boring and for nerds
It’s open, so no licensing.
Also, compression-wise, it’s either equal or better from what I’ve seen
Nice thing is, you don’t have to. It’ll still patch the apk for you, it just won’t install it (having root allows it to overwrite the current app, allowing you to keep your data)
You either pay or you leave. Spotify wins, in both cases
40TB of storage is around $800, or $33/m for 2 years, which is like two subscription services.
Also, you can share what you’ve downloaded with friends, further driving down the cost compared that what would be paid to the corps
Is there anything to discuss in this case?
They don’t care about people using it, they might even personally do it themselves.
It’s about reducing their liability, which this does just fine
The former.
You cannot hardlink across drives, and I’m guessing the OS might not know it’s one drive if you’ve got multiple shares.
Pirating movies is so ick. It’s not like it’s necessary, or you are entitled to see the content.
There’s a big difference between “heated” and “burnt” tobacco. Same as with weed vaporization vs smoking, vaporization is much healthier compared to inhaling burnt plant material.
