Denmark has 880 Pirates of all kinds and they "reach" 46% of 15-24 year olds?

That's some bloody effective Pirates right there!

What can we do about major sites blocking VPN providers?

I use ProtonVPN for everything, and I’ve started noticing more and more sites simply blocking me if I try to connect to them through ProtonVPN. As much as it sucks, I’ve more or less become acclimated to having to deal with an increased number of captchas while using a VPN; but I’m pretty angry about being blocked...

That thing where they claim the username/password combo is wrong?

That sounds like a really good idea if the site thinks the reason they're a lot of different lock-on attemps from that one ip is because its a hacker with a list of stolen credentials.

Basically just tell them their list is fake and "go away and stop bothering our customers, please."

Thank you, I was really wondering what "csb" stood for.

And Krita.
Like David Revoy

Also Blender? I'm mean if they're adding sound effects.
Sofie Jantak does 2D stuff in Blender

Also don't pirate rain and door knocks, just get them from people who freely share that sort of thing.

That's for dough?

I've always used it for mixing the meat and stuff for meatballs (frikadeller).

Remember to take of the handle to properly clean it afterwards.
Though I suppose that's less of a problem if you don't use it for meat

It's a service.

It's a service given to you for free by a company with no apparant way of generating income.

Would you think about that, please?

Oh, by the way, text-only browsers are still a thing.

You might want to look at links and/or lynx and see if they cover your usecase.

Random thought: Windows is largely successful because of Piracy

Windows as a software package would have never been affordable to individuals or local-level orgs in countries like India and Bangladesh (especially in the 2000’s) that are now powerhouses of IT. Same for many SE Asian, Eastern European, African and LatinoAmerican countries as well....

The vast majority of the value of a consumer facing computer system is in the people who help other people.

They know that.

given how little one vote matter, it seems to me that stripping felons of their right to vote is both petty and counterproductive if the point was to reform them into civic minded individuals ?

Also, seems kind of scary that this implies a future where so many people are in prison that their vote could actually tip the balance ?

Can we be totally honest here and just state what the fear is?

If slaves could vote they'd vote for freedom.

There's a hole the size of a railroad junction in the 13nd amendment.
