thank brexiters for that, it’s illegal in eu

this is hideously expensive, in poland there’s a package that gets you unlimited data in a month (mosly at lte speeds) after you spend more than 30zł in given month (a bit over 7€/mo)

finally, they have automated couriers kicking packages

there’s 4265 torrents right now with 1000 pdfs per torrent. 120TB ish as of three years ago

you don’t know where’s what, because torrents are packaged by submission date and not by topic

you can download entire libgen archive if you are so inclined, there’s even torrents list https://libgen.rs/repository_torrent/

apparently this happens https://www.reddit.com/r/Soulseek/comments/cs9j02/users_who_charge_to_access_their_files/

i think that it’s mostly because they don’t want somebody with 0 shared files to download - and i sorta understand that, would be lot cooler if people weren’t leeches only, sure, but i can’t be bothered to check or enforce. if you have something shared and message them they’ll usually allow to download

Preferences -> Searches -> toggle Show privately shared files in search results

you can hide private files in search results, at least in nicotine

i’ve seen this on lw accounts, unless you can pull it out if you own community somehow

i’ve noticed that LW replaces what i assume are some slurs in comments with removed it’s automated, there’s no indication that content was edited, nobody announced that, nothing appears in modlog so it must be done in db directly

that and they also prohibit use of vpns and tor

they also took suspiciously long to defederate exploding heads, compared to some leftist instance that i don’t remember now but that instance wasn’t an issue

admins banned a community, not one but three. this one, piracy at .ml and another one at db0. it’s likely that lw admins defederated from entire instance too

e: i think it happened in the past but now db0 is federated with lw

Booo, get out of there with reasonable and grounded explanations!

fuck scribd, just upload yer shit to researchgate like a normal person

are you worried about nuclear war? why? you’ve got reminded that russia has nukes? everyone has, everyone has been keeping everyone else at gunpoint (missilepoint?) since 60s in giant mexican standoff. have you died in the meantime? i don’t think so. what makes you think it’s gonna change anytime soon?

here you have well informed take on escalation ladder (tldr: it’s nowhere near putin’s interest to actually do a massive escalation) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fWKGYnO0Jf4 and a writeup https://acoup.blog/2022/03/11/collections-nuclear-deterrence-101/

i, for one, will enjoy one day of peace when russian regime falls. not holding my breath for this tho

inspect element works better

it is

you focus on that popup and ignore all the crank shit that is on this page

yes a piece of granite (?) with $60 pricetag put on my amplifier COMPLETELY changes how my vinyls sound like
