This isn't a new phenomenon, it's been a problem for decades. The problem just looks different now, is all.
But here's the thing. The best artists don't make art for the attention, they make art for themselves and other people just appreciate it as well. So those artists aren't going to give up, because it was never about the fame for them.
I think the annoymousjoker summed it up nicely, but let me add that anytime you have venture capital funds investing millions into your product, it means they think it's going to make them a lot of money. Since you're not paying for Brave, you need to ask yourself how are they returning on that investment? And the answer to that is that anytime a corporation offers a service for free, it's because the product they're making money off of isn't the service, the product is you and your data.
Kindle supports epub now, and if you try to send a mobi formated book through email to your kindle, then Amazon will send you an email telling you that that format has been depreciated.
That's pretty funny, because I've been loading epubs on my Kindle for awhile now, both via cable if I'm at home, and over email if I am not. Amazon recommends epubs over mobi, in fact, and threw a fit when I emailed a mobi.
Don't root your phone. It gives everything on your phone root access to do whatever it wants, which totally invalidates all of your phone's security measures and leaves you completely unprotected. Nothing worth doing to your phone needs root, and there's almost always a way to do whatever you want to do without rooting.
Yes of course it is. Those places do more than just repair too, they also do a lot of work adjusting shoes for people who have, for example, one leg that's a bit longer than the other.
Now, you probably wouldn't repair an athletic shoe, because those are supposed to be replaced as they wear out, but anybody who has a nice pair of dress shoes or boots or loafers may want them resoled when they wear out because the rest of the shoe is still good, and it's wasteful to toss them. It's a fairly simple process that takes a skilled worker about a half hour or so.
You mean the crypto-bro browser funded by billionaire Peter Thiel, who runs the corporate intelligence agency Palantir, which contracts with the Department of Defense to spy on Americans?
The short answer is no. Why would you even ask that? Piracy is never safe, and you take responsibility for downloading stuff based on nothing more than the word of strangers you'll never meet that it's not infected with something that's going to steal your banking information.
Lots of people. This is great for office workers, because e-ink doesn't cause eye strain like monitors do. And if all you're doing is working with documents, this is a fantastic way to go.
Ah, the app I've been waiting for! Infinity was great for Reddit, and I was glad to hear it was making the move to Lemmy. This is probably gonna replace Jerboa as my Lemmy app.
They didn't need to break the encryption. Once they knew the people were talking with China, they could just sieze the phones and read everything. As for how they knew they were talking to China, that was probably their bank that tipped off the feds to unusual payments coming from China. They might also have noticed they were viewing classified materials on government systems they didn't need to view.
