I really really tried to like it, but I would constantly run into issues with files not deleting properly and would get database errors regularly. If the intent was to separate management of the underlying database, all it did was cause headaches.
Not to mention, not being able to easily just go under the hood to the file system and remove something drove me up a wall. Just let me delete my files, dammit!
I ended up just using a big-standard file share on TrueNAS.
People have problems with Nextcloud? You only have to be careful when upgrading major versions of Nextcloud or its database. It’s your fault if you’re using the latest tag.
Other way around: if it doesn’t happen soon enough, it becomes impossible.
We’re already seeing cops murdering protesters and trying them as terrorists with little to no outcry from the mainstream.
If this shit continues, it’ll become de facto legal for cops to murder protesters all over the country, just like it already is for people in cars in at least one state.
You are talking about state of the matter, I am talking the phrase by which I am confused. I would not be confused, for example, if it ended with “before it does” instead of “before it can”.
The “it’s not fair we pay for these games for them to then be pirated” says it all, it’s not about the company becoming bankrupt because of piracy, it’s because they don’t want to feel bad once they have been scammed with a half made game that others have gotten for free. Because a half made game should be worthless
What a strange mentality. When I pay for things I want, I’m generally happy to support the creator. If others can’t, why would I be upset if they get the product for free? It means more people can also enjoy the thing I like.
It’s such a crab bucket mentality, I couldn’t imagine living life being constantly bitter.
Some people are really weird when it comes to things being “fair.” I forget the details but I remember a study where given the option of getting $100 and a stranger getting $200, a good chunk of people would rather neither of them get anything.
There is a famous experiment , where a person gets 100$, and have to offer an arbitrary percentage of that to a stranger. If the stranger declines, both get nothing.
From the strangers perspective, getting offered even 1$ is a win, but the vast majority rejected anything below 30%
I certainly don’t care if others get the game other ways (except unauthorized key stores). I am just happy that good games get their recognition and give people joy. I am in the fortunate situation that I am able to just buy all games I want. Heck, I even bought games for friends who were unsure or even dismissive “if it would be worth it”. I also buy/bought games that I never played or won’t play but watched streamers play it.
Some people including OP are completely missing the point of torrenting, which is to share, not leech. If everyone removed their torrents like the OP, everything would quickly become unavailable and die.
IMO a better strategy is to just limit your global upload speed. Then at least you’re still making everything healthy and available, even if its distributed slowly.
The revolution already begun what are you talking about? Wtf?
Since at least 2016 it’s begun. If you are a programmer or dev and cannot figure out why your portion of the population doesn’t unionize it’s because a lot of you are privileged dumb fucks who are lazy as shit.
I know because I live around them. A lot of them. And it’s been my experience that they think they’re rich or something when it’s obvious they’re not.
More often than not they write these clueless toons.
The most abused and helpless people are the computer scientists. Every company. And they don’t do shit but complain or day dream.
Yup. And there’s also a HUGE difference between being anti-Semitic and just being against genocide. And our “news media” is determined to deliberately conflate the two.
Slightly off-topic but I really enjoyed the way Horizon Zero Dawn (spoilers ahead) illustrated the military industrial complex with Ted Faro. The dude was so convinced he was right about everything that not only did he help create the deadliest legion of machines ever conceived, he also deleted all knowledge acquired by humanity because he fucked up so bad that he thought anyone less smart than him (read:everyone else) would fuck up just as bad if not worse with the same knowledge. I imagine most real military contractors are lead by people who are similarly humble
That pissed me off so much. I really wanted the world to gain access to APOLLO (I’m not saying i thought the story was bad, rather that it was good and I was very invested) (please don’t spoil forbidden west for me in case that comes up)
