I mean…why? you said yourself there’s paid stuff that you’re not going to use so just use soulseek if you’re going to be downloading anyways.
I dont’ use any music streaming service because the artists get paid peanuts and won’t see my dime when I use them. so i’ll support them more directly. Take your money, buy your favourite artists shirt or other merch.
yeah this isn’t WH 40K. You can’t make a “Primaris Putin” and “continuous organ transplants” are only going to top you out at a few extra years, maybe, unless this fucker has somehow struck a deal with Nurgle or Khorne or some other Warp entity.
Now if his flesh starts bubbling and his intestines are suddenly on the outside of his body and he grows a maw on his shoulder? yeah then I’d start worrying.
it depends.
I’m old enough to remember when PC demos were a thing and essentially if a demo didn’t exist, the game likely wouldn’t sell well. Hell there used to be entire websites that ONLY had demos for download of upcoming releases. So now game companies don’t do demos anymore, I pirate the games as a demo. If it’s something I think I’ll play through and come back to in a month or two or even a year then I’ll buy it. If it’s an indie dev I’ll buy it because I want to support them.
If it’s something I’m no likely to finish or will finish and never pick it up again, high seas.
Music is different. I just soulseek everything. I’m not paying some crappy streaming service to then provide pennies to the artist. I can support artists I like via other means. Merch sales, going to concerts, etc that’s where they get their money.
TV and movies? fuck em. I’m not paying for that crap when 9 times out of 10 something that I like is just going to get cancelled after 2 seasons. They don’t need my money.
Books? nope, always pay for those.
There was literally a guy the other day that was arrested for wearing a t-shirt about the genocide in palestine or was he also associated with this group
Sooooo UK citizens aren’t allowed to speak out against Israel or even say anything remotely bad about Israel but the UK government is all “we can treat Isreal however we want”
If I were living in the UK right now and I read this article I’d be all “what the fuck? rules for me but not for thee?”
since I switched to NixOS I’m finding this out now. Prior to this every Distro I was on I used zsh/oh my zsh because I’m a dummy and need the autosuggestions, autocomplete, syntax highlighting etc and it was quick, no issues.
Now that i’m on Nix zsh is slow to get to a prompt. logging in via tty takes 2-5 seconds to hit a prompt, in a terminal about the same. maybe I set up my nix config wrong, I don’t know. I’m only loading those three pluggins and I’ve boiled it down to the autosuggestions and or autocomplete.
It might just be a conflict with NixOS’ auto suggestsions/complete thing (likely is) but if Fish or Nushell has the same 3 features I need because, again, i’m a dummy then I’d happily switch.
well they sure as fuck ain’t killing Hamas. Someone needs to update the wikipedia for this “war” to change it from Israel vs Hamas to Israel vs The Associated Press
Seriously, can’t remember the last time they killed Hamas en masse other than a single “commander” but they sure as hell are good at killing Journalists, blowing up hospitals, and butchering children.
it’s really one of those “well…it depends” It works for you because you somehow figure out the magical setup. It’s never worked for me even on Arch with dolphin. and I didn’t even bother dealing with it on NixOS.
