They finally found a way to kill by making storage devices unaffordable (hard drives, ssds along with ram, gpus) or not producing it anymore (blu ray burners, internal optical drives). This will slowly suffocate the piracy scene because people won't be able to afford new backups, replace failing drives, expand storage, hoard data.

Not to mention that all piracy related sites are going down rapidly one by one (rargb, vimm's lair, anime tosho, myrient and many others) or getting raped by cloudfare and political instability (rutracker). Even GOG is planning to get closed soon due to "reasons".

The average user is too dumb for any DIY related stuff including piracy, young people are retarded or brainwashed, they'll gladly live a life without even touching a personal computer and get used to pay for temporarily accessing pixels on the screen and blame China for high prices, degradation of life standards and human rights.

There's no way out of this. This psychopathic fucks found a way to make our life even more miserable.

Do companies actually use (((Bython))) or is it just facebook cope? every job is php, .net, or java backend. This also applies to typescript, react, and db platforms like supabase i.e. all the jobs want you to code in bootstrap, VanillaJS, and then setup your own PostgreSQL server. Is everything a lie?

I typed something incredibly long only for it to all be invalidated because I accidentally refreshed the page.

Here is the 4channel post I found from the archives that I based my original OP off of:

Alpine + distrobox/KVM make a perfectly workable ultra-minimalist desktop distro. You can use an Arch, Debian, or any other distrobox for all the corner cases where musl has no compatibility. Flatpaks are available too. Of course, it's not a distribution for newcomers, but if you're barely competent and tech savvy enough, there's nothing you can't do on Alpine that you can do on Arch, Fedora, or Ubuntu.

I am setting this up on my host machine, a laptop, and it seems like a good approach because all you'd have to do is keep the host machine updafed, if you even wanted to keep it updated at all and. it'd be easy because all your host has would be Xorg and Distrobox amongst what other software is present on your host machine

You wouldnt need to upgrade the containers if you only needed one version of software, but you'd likely have this:

Bleeding (Arch, always up to date)
Stable (Debian, never updated unless necessary)
Olden (Ancient version of Ubuntu for old software that's not available anymore)
Host (Alpine Linux as a minimalist host machine)

I cannot imagine having multiple containerized distros all pointing to your home directory is going to *increase* stability. This seems like something that will work great for a week and then you'll just naturally start reaching for another laptop with a normal OS

>Reddit to require login to use old.reddit.com (the old bloatless site that doesn't require javascript)

https://archive.is/ScgLI

Reddit is shit but you're required to use it to find anything on the internet these days. I've always used old Reddit to make the thing more usable, but it's going away now unless you make a Reddit account and (((log in))).

They're using the bot issue as an excuse for removing it, but how does that make sense when they're removing it for logged out users who can't post anything? They also mention scraping but they don't seem to have a problem with that if the one scraping is Google for their AI and they're getting paid for it.

It is a shame they make those outdoor units so ugly.
For a couple of euro's extra they could make them look decent just like they make the indoor parts look decent.
I'll bet they could even make them blend in with historic architecture of they cared at all.

Real problem is people only care what the insides or their homes look like and maybe the other homes across the street but they don't have to look at their own facades.

What is the most private VPN? Mullvad looks nice but it requires systemd which is a no-go. Needs to be good for torrenting and other such stuff. Apparently proton and nord and all the VPNs that get shilled are all glowware.

Yeah way to totally gloss over:
>The website is in broken English, the VPN client is literally named Eddie and it's written in mono and requires Microsoft libraries to run even on Linux
Also Mullvad owns all their own servers, and they all run entirely from ram, and they have been raided by police and have found nothing

I'm using Proton on a Win 7 retro build that I play online with, am I still ok? I'm not doing any nefarious shit not even torrenting, it's a Core 2 Duo box to play Quake 3, UT2004, Unreal Tournament 99, DOOM, etc. at retro LAN parties. I haven't had any issues with it and I quite like it.
