manufacturer will offer GrapheneOS support on future versions of their existing models, priced similarly to Pixels.

Great, so I still won’t afford it…

But you can summon a touch volume control from the buttons.

Nevermind the donation pop-up, how can people use gnome? It’s unusable, it interface is literally the worse UI I’ve ever had the displeasure of using only second to macOS.

I believe that gnome is actually what is keeping many people away from gnu/linux, since it’s default on many distros, people install “linux” and they get gnome and gnome sucks so they hate on linux instead of hating gnome.

While not full proof, but you can always sandbox it with firejail or bubblewrap.

But make sure to read the documentation thoroughly.

As with all google products, youtube also went from bad to worse, but it’s still enough of a giant monopoly so that they can keep making decisions that fucks both the user and the content creators without real consequences.

W-what? ENT isn’t old Star Trek, old Star Trek is TOS, r-right?

I used to download and seed torrents 24/7 directly from my shitty consumer smr drive.

Not only speed was very slow but I think I killed the drive because of that.

I’m still thinking how I’m going to proceed now that I’m setting up my NAS again, I think I’m going to have to torrent to some smaller, cheaper but higher quality drive and then copy to the smr archive, until I can afford an enterprise drive.

It’s also possible that I killed the drive due to bad heat management, but in the datasheet it says something that I’m only supposed to use it for 2h a day per year and not 24/7.

From my personal ethics standpoint, intellectual property is a form of private property which I’m against, also a form or artificial scarcity, which I’m also against.

If you want to support a small artist? You can maybe donate to them directly? Is that a thing? Maybe they have a patreon or something? In my case I have way less money than the artists I consume from so donating would make no sense.

Also, the act of making a copy doesn’t remove the original, the artist doesn’t get poorer because you pirate their content.

ikr? I have a friend who literally sold a cat in return for chickens.

I would spend the money on a VPN instead because:

1. DLL links are always down, torrents can die too, but overall they are much more reliable, you can just have your torrent search engine to organise by seeders.

2. Much more content on torrents

3. Much higher quality, DLLs at least back when I used those had terrible quality.

4. Much easier to manage 100 downloads at the same time, sure Jdownloader exists, but…

5. RSS downloaded, you can get your favourite anime torrent or RSS and qbittorrent will download it for you every week.

6. Security, if you download software, popular torrent websites are much more trusted and moderated and you have less probably of getting malware.

7. If you subscribe to a DLL site you can use that single website, if you torrent you can download from many websites.

8. You can use the VPN for other stuff.

There’s ffshare on f-droid, but I’ve never tried it, don’t know if it works.
