I don’t know… I get that rule 1 and 16 are just edgy humor, but I can’t imagine what she’s satirising in this message. What other crackers ask people to only call them ‘Mother’?

Do not ask about cracks or technical questions

So then what are you supposed to do on this Telegram channel?

What does this script do? Looks like the results of an ls command to me

From what I understand, isn’t this site’s Z-Library content taken from the torrent dumps when the site originally got taken off the clearweb? In that case, won’t it be a bit out-of-date?

They switched their singlelogin TLD a while ago. The new one is .re

uBO filters really are a powerful tool. I just discovered the other day that there’s even a filter than can inject CSS and JS scripts in a webpage!

You’re right that Fairphone’s supply chain is not fully sustainable. In fact, I remember reading an interview with the founder where he admitted that poor sustainability and labour practices are so entrenched in the industry that it was impossible to actually make a “fair” Fairphone. (Incidentally, this is why the company uses the word “fair*[er]*” to describe the phones.)

Yeah, I would definitely agree that a used phone is a much more environmentally-friendly choice than a brand-new one. The amount of customers who are going to ditch their 1 or 2 year old phone for this “sustainable” phone will unfortunately not be zero…

I think that these rules are unnecessarily over-complicating the problem. IMO, the best solution would be to amend copyright legislation to include a similar clause to the one found in the ‘fair dealing’ exemption of many Commonwealth countries - i.e “Can the work or adaptation be obtained within a reasonable time at an ordinary commercial price?” If not, copying the game is not an infringing act.

Man, this is just the tip of the iceberg. There’s a whole writeup about Empress, and she used to be 10x as psychotic

Lol, this sounds like a grandma complaining that Facebook is deleting her posts

To be honest, I think 8 GB is a more realistic requirement for light tasks nowadays, but not because of Windows - even Windows 10 would struggle with Chrome, Word, Excel, etc on just 4 GB, and I can’t imagine that W11 is any better. Increasing the requirements would ensure that OEMs won’t put Windows 12 on shitbox PCs with 4 GB and call them usable, just because they meet the bare-minimum standards.

2-3 years is actually a reasonable time for Windows releases, going by historical dates. I think we’re all used to the long gap between Windows 10 and Windows 11

New Windows release already? Looks like Microsoft has realised that its old model of selling major upgrades was more profitable than the Windows 10 strategy.

That happened to me too! I also had someone download an album, but just the text files - basically, a message from the site I had originally got it from, and a log from a CD ripping program.

Most people that put the covers in the shares seem to rip from Discogs, so I doubt it lol

As someone who listens to a lot of obscure music, I’m amazed at Soulseek’s variety of content. I’ve searched up albums and comps that have all but disappeared off the face of the earth, and have always found an uploader with a complete share.

I don’t know if the rooms are really worth it. You only get the messages starting when you logged in, so you can’t catch up to what happened before; this problem is particularly relevant because most rooms are dead; those that aren’t dead consist of a lot of vicious arguments; and it’s live chat anyway, never my favorite format for discussion.

Yeah, don’t bother with chatrooms. I’m on Nicotine+, and the respective room is always filled with 4chan shit. It’s a shame that everything else is dead, since I’d appreciate the thought of having a conversation while waiting for my files to download.

There are volume licenses for Macs floating around - you install a package that contains the serial files, and then install Microsoft Office as normal. The MacSerialJunkie forum will have a more detailed guide
