Let's collectively fund an island where we can host Signal, Tor nodes and ThePirateBay in international waters.

While I wouldn’t wish this on anyone, it’s amazing how self-destructive this is. Greta is an internationally famous activist. Flagrantly violating and abusing a person with world renown - along with dozens of other activists - is a radically stupid way to hasten international isolation.

You'd be correct most of the time, but this is Israel we are talking about. They know there won't be any consequences because claiming they did something wrong must mean you're a nazi, and even if you get over that, daddy USA is there to protect them anyway.

Israel could livestream a soldier killing Greta and they would face no consequences whatsoever.

There are classical, "best of all time", titles that an anime lover like you would defintely enjoy. They're not available on Crunchyroll, they're not on Amazon Prime, Netflix, you can't purchase a copy. A few had selected censored releases in VHS, good luck hunting them down.

The thing with piracy is that it's not just a money saving trick used by teenagers, it's also the only way to truly watch the media you enjoy regardless of what some media conglomerate thinks - they no longer get to define how, when and what you're going to watch. You have to do a bit of setup once... yes that sucks, but from that point onwards, you're free.

No worries! I never found a true alternative to MusicBee, and there are several outdated tutorials about getting it run on Wine that technically work but leave you with a buggy app. The method I showed you works perfectly.

MusicBee works perfectly via Wine, and it's a major part of my digital library. Without MusicBee my MP3 player would be worth 1/10 for me.

But you can't just take the installer and double click it, you need to follow these steps (naturally replace the directories):

Install Wine Staging and Winetricks

Create prefix for MusicBee and .NET

Bash:

WINEPREFIX=/home/kadupse/Wine/MusicBee/ wineboot –init 

Install .NET 4.0 and corefonts

Bash:

WINEPREFIX=/home/kadupse/Wine/MusicBee/ winetricks --force dotnet40 corefonts

Install xmllite and gdiplus

Bash:

WINEPREFIX=/home/kadupse/Wine/MusicBee/ winetricks xmllite gdiplus

 
Set Wine to Windows 7 compatibility mode

Bash:

WINEPREFIX=/home/kadupse/Wine/MusicBee/ winetricks win7 

Install .NET 4.8

Bash:

WINEPREFIX=/home/kadupse/Wine/MusicBee/  wine $HOME/Downloads/ndp48-x86-x64-allos-enu.exe /q 

Install Music Bee

Bash:

WINEPREFIX=/home/kadupse/Wine/MusicBee/  wine $HOME/Downloads/MusicBeeSetup_3_6.exe 

Downloads needed:
This specific version of the .NET Framework installer

You might see warnings about WoW64 mode, experimental flags, etc, just ignore them and keep going and MusicBee will work.

Capitalism isn't bad. It's what humans do with them that is bad. Don't be a greedy dick and they would all work fine.

Capitalism demands greed and infinite growth in a finite and resource-limited world. It's inherently contradictory, regardless of your ethics.

A famous alt-right politician in Brazil was in a podcast once and said the quiet part out loud. He's one of the main "next generation right wing" representatives and he said, live:

"... you know we are lucky the average Brazilian is too dumb, if they started reading and thinking they'd vote for the left, God blessed us with this idiocy"

His voters couldn't parse this sentence and understand what he is saying.

I'll just sigh and move on, not worth getting stressed out over a dumb reply online

Ah yes, great analogy. My computer with the operating system I installed and the files I own and want to modify certainly is the same as going to some strangers apartment and trying to buy it.

We don't want to invade the privacy of... the software... right?

The set of primes and the set of integers have the same size, you can map a prime to every integer.

I don't understand why society accepted that the hardware maker gets to decide what software you run.

That'd be like your car deciding which roads you can take, or your blender deciding you're not allowed to use strawberries in your smoothie.

Are you nuts? Why the fuck would your phone decide which apps you can run?

I've generally found gnome users just use it
