I don’t know any pirates, but I sure do know a lot of people that share copies of files on the internet.

5·2 months agoI wanted one for a camper, before they were released, but only if the cab could be opened to the rear…
Wasn’t interested after release though.

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•What was the worst pirated movie you've ever seen?English
0·2 months agoWell, I originally saw both Blair Witch and H20 played from really dark and messy VHS copies of theater recordings… And man, let me tell ya, they were both way better as low quality cams that HD movies!
I intentionally watch bad Horror as cams now, when I can, even decades later… It really adds to the experience!

Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•Readest (cross platform ebook reader) gets infinite scrolling
0·2 months agoDoes this mean epubs won’t stop and require a new page to load at the end of chapters / new file segments?
It’s one of my biggest gripes switching from mobi single file ebooks to epub multi-file ebooks.
Should just append the next file and allow the flow to continue.
Been waiting for such a change for epub reading apps for many years.
Update: OMG yes, it works! (Not by default, scroll mode must be opted-in first via 3-dot menu)
Now I can maintain the same scroll while reading habits I do for online content, PDFs, and Mobi files while reading ePubs! Bout damn time!
This is now my default ebook reader everywhere!
SOs HP laptop borked Win11pro OS, wouldn’t load or recover. Tried reinstalling clean but Win11 installer can’t see SSD. Driver loading during install results in install crashing error.
Linux, here we come.

0·3 months agoWhy do they last more than a year?
Why do they exist at all?
Whatever man.
I change up my writing style pretty much constantly.
And I switch between muliple accounts on several services, each representing a different fictional character.
And I use a VPN.
Assuming statements posted to reddit aren’t accurate is a weird bias.
I thought he retired.
Seems aight, I’m fine with FF ATM though.
I do keep alternates around for rare issues, so when helium is out of beta if it ever is, I may install it.
I prefer an income cap, 1 million a year, at a standard tax percentage, then all income above 1mil is taxed 100%. Capital gains are treated as income. Any profit is.
But trading value that has already been taxed is not counted as income. So selling a 10mil house for 11mil is only taxed 1mil, as the 10mil was already taxed as income.
Same for corps, but with a 10mil profit cap a year.
The low cap discourages businesses from merging into massive conglomerates that control too much of anything.
We don’t actually need national or international businesses.
Of course I also approve of making for-profits outright illegal. So the cap wouldn’t even be relevant for businesses anyway, as they’d all be public services, and any ‘profits’ they made a year would just be put towards more, or better services, or improved employee compensation packages, or subsidizing costs in the future until prices balance back out, or refunds (all depending on the business/industry).
