This is a strange move from a country that is usually the most overprotective when it comes to copyright. Though I guess if you view it from a "pro-business" view then it might make sense. Sucks a ton for artists though.
This is dumb on so many levels. It'd be trivial for people to obtain a web browser that ignores this. The biggest browsers in the world all have open-source code bases, so anybody could build something with near feature parity but none of the restrictions, and then distribute it wherever. Enforcing this would be just create another game of wack-a-mole, with no advantages for the copyright holders, and potential abuse against even non-pirate users. Very slippery slope.
Yeah, try compressing the images smaller. Some Lemmy servers have upload size limits. Or you can host the picture elsewhere and then just link it using:
Because whenever there's a fire, he throws gasoline on it like it's his life goal to butt heads with the world. And he shows no respect to others, like suddenly taking a user's username without asking and breaking stuff with no remorse.
Is he statistically the worst person in the world? Probably not. But he does his best to make people feel like he is.
Forcing Snaps, and requiring all official Ubuntu flavors to remove Flatpak support out of the box. You can still install Flatpak support afterwards, but it continues to rub the Linux community the wrong way.
Have a relative that just got a new laptop with Windows 11, but their printer wouldn't work with it. It was a fairly old thing, but it worked fine on Windows 10. Turns out, the manufacturer no longer distributes the driver directly, and instead just shares it through Windows Update, which would be super convenient, except the driver is only listed for Windows 10 devices, and won't install on Windows 11. So dumb.
Unlike others asking for a lifetime license, as I understand development of such an app has ongoing costs, would it be possible to have a pay per year option? I'm honestly tired of micro-managing subscriptions, so if I could just pay for a year, and then have to pay again if I'm still using it in a year and the ads reappear, that'd be fine. I still want to show my support.
