For people who value reading: if they have no books on their shelves. They might be avid readers of ebooks, or just use the library.
But this should clear itself up with a rather simple discussion started by mentioning a book you read recently.
Not even the clouds are safe!
I did the same thing and have the same attitude. I still watch what few Netflix shows are any good. They just aren’t getting any of my money any more 🙂
I think it’s more common for people to rotate which service they’re subscribed to each month.
But piracy is still increasing in popularity.
It can be as simple as running a VPN on your computer, and downloading torrents through a torrent app on the same computer. Then you can just watch the videos you download however you like.
If you want a Netflix-like interface for what you’ve downloaded, run Plex or Jellyfin and point them to your downloads. Get the plex or jellyfin app on your tv, tablet, phone, etc as well. The app will see plex running on your computer and you’re good to go.
You can keep getting more advanced depending on what you want. For example you can use apps like Sonarr and Radarr to automatically send movies and shows to your download app as they come out. You can also use things like Bazarr to automatically get subtitles. Tdarr to encode what you download if you want to do something like make sure everything works on your tv and a specific streaming stick (eg: roku).
And on and on.
I use all of that, and have it set up through docker on a server which has access to a giant NAS for storing the files.
I just don’t understand how people find accounts they like to follow.
I think animals should have more rights already. It’d be nice if they could talk or something to help people realize they’re actually living things worthy of empathy.
But to your point, cats and dogs are already among the better-treated animals in large parts of the world.
Compared to animals who get farmed (especially factory farmed), or get the death sentence label of a pest or invasive species.
We have our place on the planet purely by right of conquest.
It’s fundamentally immoral what we do to animals but people just ignore it, accept it as a necessary evil, or somehow block the empathy from their brain applying to animals.
We all should, though.
Desktop OS on a tablet is fine and even preferred depending on what you want it for.
I have a surface and don’t mind using full windows that way.
I have a surface and I love it. At the same time, I hardly use the stylus.
I’m sure it’s the reason many get it, but I also think there’s a large audience for a tablet without one.
It’s fundamentally impossible to grant read access without copy. And you can always do whatever you want to your copy.
Otherwise, piracy wouldn’t be a thing.
Or trying to drive to the shop instead of getting a tow.
I’ve seen that about Ubuntu a few times. Can someone provide me with a TLDR or a good summary article of what’s happened to them? Also is it their server stuff too or just desktop? (I use Ubuntu on my home server and have for years)
Yeah, I miss when there was a social media site that catered to just people you know. Just friends and family.
Plain sparkling water. It’s already my favourite one. I drink it by the pallet.
We will. Lemmy seems to easily get flooded with singular stories. Eg whenever Elon comes up with yet another dumbass decision.
This is like us too. The important stuff aligns, but we have very different general interests and hobbies.
How different from water does it have to be? Just not in the title?
Because both something like sparkling water and juice are basically water.
But I already pretty much only drink sparkling water so I’ll pick that one if it’s allowed (if the spirit of your question is “no flat water”).
Because it’s clearly the best for numerous reasons.
