  • I looked the Irish star up, and it's owned by the same company as the daily mirror and daily star. So my guess is it's purpose is to amplify bots that complain about dei. Making those complaints seem more abundant than they are.

  • I don't think that's a great comparison. You're most likely never allowed to paint your door. I would say it's more like curtains, your apartment has proprietary curtain rods, that you can't put your own curtains on for some reason, so you ask all your neighbors how to change them. They respond with "have you tried opening and closing your curtains yet?", "Try vacuuming them to get the dust off". Then you finally get a hold of the landlord and they say you can't replace them.

  • I appreciate yts, you know what you're gonna get. I can be sure to have a movie ready to go for the family in 15 minutes.

    Really, the benefit is the audio will be stereo and dialogue will be either heard or not at all and I know there's nothing I can do about it.

  • Slight correction, Lora is shared with amateur bands, but the transmission power is low enough that it's within unlicensed limits.

    Also, they can actually transmit quite far, they just can't penetrate well. A mountaintop node can communicate to the horizon, but inside a house at desk height it can struggle to reach a half mile.

  • It's not illegal to use encryption if your transmission is below 1 watt, such as normal Wi-Fi. If you want to use more power, then you need to get a license and your traffic can't be encrypted. Licensed amateurs can use orders of magnitude more power and cover areas city wide, rather than barely within the confines of a home.

  • I'm my experience "I could sue, but won't" is only ever used as a threat by narcissist assholes who got called out and don't have enough evidence to sue, because if they truly did, they would. His ego was hurt by his own shitty attitude, so he's using threats he can't back up to be a bully. He's basically saying "I have more money than you and can drain your resources with a frivolous lawsuit if I wanted to"

  • As an avid apple disliker, they really got a lot of things right with 10.x, with snow leopard hitting it out of the park. Everything from them around that era was slick. If I wasn't a poor college kid running a 5 year old eBay Thinkpad I would have been sucked into their oppressive ecosystem in a heartbeat.
