  • If it was just for game OSTs and other less common music. Over time I noticed that my playlists on streaming services start losing songs, mainstream music. Sometimes this is because an artist leaves one label for another, but sometimes I have no explanation. And I don't even notice that until "hey, I haven't heard that song in years... wait, where is it? where are these albums??" It's frustrating. This pushed me to pirate music again.

  • I’m In the need of an offline calendar and gallery now that simplemobiletools got sold off

    This doesn't sound reasonable. Why can't you keep using existing apps? Are they underdeveloped and you're waiting for some features? If so, it'd be helpful to see what these features are in order to suggest a suitable replacement.

  • A ceasefire was established after the 2014 invasion, but now we find ourselves in the midst of a full-scale invasion. This underscores the significance of ensuring Putin's military and political defeat. It is crucial to send a clear message to China (and other potential aggressors) that invading Taiwan would be bad for them. The modern world is intricately interconnected and highly complex, there are no simple solutions to its problems. Unfortunately, many people struggle to accept this reality, leading to the rise of populists.

  • did the west miscalculate the situation by allowing diplomacy to take a backseat and allowing Ukraine to a large plethora of military resources?

    a large plethora of military resources

    No. The West failed to provide Ukraine with sufficient military resources. While the monetary value of military aid may seem substantial when compared to your bank account, the reality is that Russia possesses greater resources and capabilities.

  • Imagine you have lots of toys, like your favorite games and cool apps on your tablet or phone. If you had to update them manually, it's like having to go to each toy, take it apart, fix anything that's broken, and then put it back together every time there's a new version or improvement.

    Now, think about having a special toy store for your toys. When you go to the store, they already know about any new cool features or fixes for your toys. All you have to do is ask the store to update your toys, and they make sure all your toys get the latest and greatest stuff without you having to do anything.

    So, having a store for apps is like having a magical place where all your toys can be fixed and improved automatically, without you having to do the hard work of updating each one by yourself. It saves you time and makes sure your toys are always the best they can be!

  • I emotionally understand this idealistic view. But you can't exclude yourself from the economy and exclude yourself from professional collaboration of any kind by switching from Photoshop to GIMP.

  • Why are there supported tags? Why can't #AnyTag be parsed by the bot? I don't expect many people to make the effort to check which tags are allowed.

    Why should a Lemmy user care about this? It appears there is no integration with Lemmy beyond parsing. For instance, you can't quickly filter by tags from the sidebar.

    I suppose it's still useful since the #piracy tag is added automatically. However, the overall idea feels rather raw.

  • I don’t blame Beijing honestly. Bigots will just run around screaming “China Flu”, claim its from a lab or whatever.

    And? How does this justify potential consequences? If they don't cooperate, people won't blame them? This logic is faulty from any side.

  • I can't bother joining a private tracker. Of course, they might be useful for niche content. For instance, 15 years ago there was a special tracker, where people shared races of virtually all racing series. But mainstream stuff is available on public trackers.

    There one tracker where I download lossless music. But anyone can join it, I guess you could define it as semi-private or semi-public.

  • Linux, the kernel, doesn't operate in isolation. The system under test was Ubuntu, which comes with specific packages, package versions, patches, kernel configuration, and so on. It is reasonable to say that the combination between this specific operating system and hardware led to the observed outcome. Different combinations of software and hardware may yield other results or replicate the same outcome. The certainty of these outcomes can only be established through testing. Therefore, your outrage seems unwarranted, and your assertion is not only baseless but incorrect.

  • This sounds like they have to compete for your money and produce better shows, which is good for consumers. You can subscribe to service X, watch the show you're interested in, and unsubscribe. Netflix releases all episodes at once, with other platforms you can simply wait till the show ends before subscribing.

    I don't argue that you should do exactly that instead of pirating. But I don't see why somebody should be subscribed to all these services.
