Scummy, but not uncommon really. Bring in customers at the cheap tier and then once they’re in your ecosystem overcharge for the higher tiers.

This is what half of Tik-Tok feels like.
Honestly a large amount of people would take a vegan option if it tasted the same, had the same texture, was as cheap or cheaper than meat, was as accessible, and didn’t require learning a new skill set.
And businesses would stop burning fossil fuels if renewables had the same portability, same output, were cheaper, available everywhere, and didn’t require learning a new skill set. They can still be criticised for doing so, I’m not sure what your point here is?
Ignoring the rest of your points, I disagree on porn piracy. Not that I would know, being a good Christian ofc ofc, but that scene feels the most alive. If I want to find content from a certain site/person then it is generally a couple of searches away. No private trackers or special software needed. When I compare that to other scenes that require much harder to find websites, applications, etcetera… and it’s been that way every time I’ve checked. I don’t think it’s going anywhere soon.
This may be unhelpful, but I ended up port forwarding through my VPN. I seem to recall errors with UPnP and while my connection to slsk.net is still buggy, it works better now I’ve manually forwarded. I had already paid the extra $2 a month to my VPN for forwarding so that I could get better torrent performance, so.
Instead of gonewild girls promoting their OnlyFans, maybe now they can promote their paid subreddit lol.
I agree with most of your points, but “anti physically and mentally disabled”? Really? Your source describes how they reuploaded unsubtitled lectures for the sake of preservation. This is hardly a villanous move and has nothing to do with “not caring about deaf people”. Let’s keep the arguments honest, you have plenty else to stick them with that’s actually substantial.
Well a good indicator is if I have to check the source code of a packaged program to understand what something does, the documentation is not good enough. And yes I’ve had to do this far too much.
I agree, but I don’t think images should be relied on as the primary communicator. I have seen far too many forums/websites/docs with broken images because the host went down. That and archivers are more likely to fail at saving images. Explain it using text and give a reference image to further display the point.
No one I have met in Canada has ever asked to message over telegram or whatsapp.
For sure, let me just make an account, install the app, find and add them- wait, he drove over with a USB? Jokes aside, thanks for the recommendation, but it’s not any simpler than the 2011 solutions if you haven’t set it up already.
I’ve found them to be pretty clear usually. Half-formed words at start/end I just ignore. Either way, even on Firefox with uBlock and all the rest, audio captchas have always passed me first try even if I think I got it wrong. I don’t like posting about it in-case they tighten it up after it gets more users.
Sad that this XKCD from 2011 is still just as accurate today…
Logically speaking, I would sit with the wolf pack. Airline seatbelts are not made for wolves and I fully believe they would not be held by such paltry restraints. This leads me to the conclusion that my demise is not only certain, but an inevitability. With this in mind I would much rather be the first victim, for my death will be quicker while they are hungrier, and I shall save myself the mental trauma of seeing them devour the poor linux user before I reach my untimely end.
There was a short period a few years ago after the Quantum update that I would have partially agreed, because Firefox’s renderer was much smoother. But Chrome seems to have caught up, because it’s been much faster every time I test something in it in the yesrs since.
Which is invisible to users, meaning they can ignore it or handwave it with “I haven’t got anything to hide”.
For me? Recall. I’m ordering an SSD to dual boot Linux off of and ween myself off Windows as much as I can. Probably can’t remove it as long as I want to play games* with friends, but I’d be happy to have my day to day be less awful.
* Before anyone says Proton, Wine, etc, I mean the awful multiplayer rootkits like Valorant.
Good point, I imagine you’re right! I haven’t shopped many VPS services, I was venting about the general practice I’ve seen in other services before.
