Yeah, what they really do is worse.

They just remove your ability to buy/play the original, so literally everyone loses.

No, Switch 1 was non-compliant as well.

Making USB-C chargers and docks is cheap and easy, there's thousands on the market.
But Nintendo had to be assholes and did things their way, as usual.

They'd probably enjoy free publicity.

What does it matter which ad company is it? They're all kinda shit.

Isn't it a law in the UK that if there's a bike lane going in your direction you're obligated to use it?

At least that's how it is in some other countries.

And, like I said, that's a niche.

I'd love to use GrapheneOS myself, but unfortunately too many apps I need won't work on it.

That'd make them even more of a niche option than right now, since some apps (most notably banking) will just refuse to work.

And they claim "zero vendor lock-in".

Exporting your content from whatever weird format they're using in the DB isn't exactly making the switch easy.

And some were not even translated at all.

Really smart move from the manga industry.
What are they even trying to achieve here?

It's not like there isn't a bunch of other websites hosting the same stuff...

Oh, great. The best part is that for some of these publishers there's literally no legal way to read their manga online.

Unless you think Japan and USA are the only 2 countries in the world, I guess...

It’s easy to think that Discord isn’t reading your messages or listening to your calls, because the utilize End to End Encryption.

It's easy to think they're reading your messages, because they don't use E2E (only calls use it).
They admit that right in the link you sent.

They also keep scanning your computer for running processes with no way to disable it (for game detection).

tl;dr is if you care about privacy, do not use Discord, or at least not for anything more serious than sending memes.

You should check the source OP posted before making an ass of yourself.

That's what this answer actually suggests, but apparently typing "journalctl" is tedious, so let's instead break everything for no good reason and blame systemd.

I always forget they ever made DVDs, I don't think they ever did that outside of USA.

No, the last time everyone did that Netflix was created, which has nearly killed the piracy for most people.

We're just going back to the basics.

No, some asshole generated a fake cease and desist letter from Ghibli to try to start some drama.

Even tried to act like some kind of genAI martyr ready to sacrifice himself for the good of AI...

Simple auth was honestly one of the upsides for me.

Plex claims to have an offline mode, but I could never got it to work, for some reason.
And I got pissed off one too many times when my Internet went down and I couldn't watch anything from the NAS a few meters away...

What's better, exactly?

I switched years ago from Plex to Jellyfin, and while the UI wasn't quite as nice, everything else is better.
And I don't have to pay to use HW transcoding on my own hardware...

Man, deep packet inspection is some crazy stuff.

Good implementation can identify the type of traffic within seconds with scarily good accuracy.

Quite a few countries actually implement this in their national ISP's infrastructure to block VPNs, so the citizens can't access non-approved websites.

$3 ink from a bodega

That's actually a fair price for 3rd party replacement.
I used to work at a computer shop, and people only ever bought the cheapest available cartridges.
We also used to do printer repair, do you know how many printers had to come in because of shitty ink?
The answer is zero.

And anyway, in your example the printer manufacturer has no business tracking your ink usage, whether it's by spying on you and phoning home, or recording this info in the printer's memory.

People being excited about getting spam from a scammer.

What a time to be alive...
