If they have surface roots, plant tap root trees instead

ryannathans,

Can hurt to clear, there’s a lot more than just package managers using it

I feel like the Steam Deck is the best proof of Gabe Newell's quote that "piracy is a service issue."

They could have easily crammed the Steam Deck full of stuff to make it hard to use for piracy - locking down everything, making it usable only to play games you legitimately own, force you to go through who knows what hoops in order to play games on it. That’s what Nintendo or Apple or most other companies do....

ryannathans,

Is that not true though? As much as we hate it, until you get given some transferrable proof of ownership of the game (like an NFT) and ability to play without being tied to one service, it’s the unfortunate reality of online game services.

It’s easy to go buy a physical game but when it’s online, you don’t own anything - yet

ryannathans,

NFTs cannot have copies made (apart from by the publisher) and are ideally suited to this problem

ryannathans,

You’re talking about media linked to by existing NFTs. You can’t copy an NFT and use it, you don’t have the cryptographic keys to mint more. There is a finite number.

ryannathans,

Cryptographic licence verification so you can play the game, say for example to use online services. Allows you to trade that licence to other people directly, no third party involvement to facilitate the trade. The game would pick it up and work. Anyone could download the game files but they only work if you own the game either by buying off someone directly or an official publisher

ryannathans,

Also known as using a pc with unpatched cpu vulnerabilities

ryannathans,

Makes it go fast

ryannathans,

Try this one, simply don’t buy any bags of sugar

ryannathans, (edited )

Or to get anything past wifi 4, or to use 5ghz

It’s bullshit because there are many products on the market running freebsd with great wifi (PlayStation as one example)

ryannathans,

Meh, I still generally prefer them. Not like everyone would be able to use the PlayStation wifi hardware anyway

ryannathans,

Or use scihub

ryannathans,

Banned from use in the uni perhaps. It’s working fine and I just pulled a paper from the 90s the other day

ryannathans,

Both are false

ryannathans,

Must be painful to sit on

ryannathans,

Who?

ryannathans,

Catch is you have to enable it manually

ryannathans,

The whole point of the poster above is that you can’t ramdomise 100%

ryannathans,

Kid is gonna think he’s goku

If you love piracy you should consider voting/joining your local Pirate Party (pp-international.net)

From wikipedia: “Pirate Party is a label adopted by political parties around the world. Pirate parties support civil rights, direct democracy (including e-democracy) or alternatively participation in government, reform of copyright and patent laws to make them more flexible and open to encourage innovation and creativity, use...

ryannathans,

In Australia we have preferential voting with no wasted votes, thought it would be more common

ryannathans,

My brother it’s a matrix chat not a public speaking event

ryannathans,

So is christmas

ryannathans,

What is the use case for bcachefs? ZFS exists and btrfs if you need to froth over licencing

ryannathans,

Wrap a nice ssh config manager around kitty ssh sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/kittens/ssh/ and it’d be pretty slick
