Well, people have been forking recipes forever. I’m sure we will get closer to that reality eventually
“My food is included in rent. Which is convenient for day-to-day eating but gives me less capacity for cooking my own meals. Like, I admit it, the system works really well for normal people, I’m just a weirdo who likes tinkering with recipes, hosting dinner parties, and whatnot”
There, I highlighted the absurdity even more for you. You’re not a wierdo, you’re a tech-chef.
Something recently broke the client and now it says invalid credentials all the time. I gave up with the client and just downloaded the openvpn files and use those.
Torrenting works…
Sign up to my onlyfans and I’ll hack together a nice Linux client for ProtonVPN and Drive.
I think this is entirely the reason…
So does that mean albums ripped and uploaded to Youtube do result in royalties being paid to the artists?
What about in the case where there are no ads?
Live music isn’t what I’m referring to though, it’s the ripped and uploaded albums
I was under the assumption that Youtube had to pay artists for their music being on there? Is that not what is happening?
And if not, how has Youtube not been cease and desisted/sued into absolute oblivion?
Wait, what happened to f-droid??
Same!
I think you mean this one
ISPs still have data caps?
That should be outlawed by now.
Dude, you’re asking is there a right time for suicide. You need to reach out and get help. Seriously. Do whatever it takes.

You ever read two lines of text at once? Like, your brain just jumps between words too fast? I had to do a double take after reading this headline as:
Cheap, good, black skinned, and reliable Jew.
I wrote a bash script for this, but I’m not sure of the correct settings so I haven’t used it to re-encode my whole library yet.
Here’s my script in case anyone has any tips:

Unreasonable? Depends on what you consider reasonable. Yes absolutely they would try to exploit the users, in which case we go back to piracy. Perhaps a better solution would be federated content providers with some sort of combined (reasonable) fee determined by the providers collectively. We get one system to subscribe to, and pay one fee.
My utopia would just be a single reasonable paid service that provided everything. I pirate because its simply more convenient than 20 subscriptions.
There should be an app or something for this…
