I don’t have an answer to your exact question but I want to emphasize…
NOTHING in the history of humankind has ever existed like computer data. A 100% identical copy of videos, pictures, and music can be made almost instantly at what is essentially zero cost to the original holder of the data. Any comparison to “stealing” or to a physical object (a car lol) just falls flat because the situation is just so different.
Practically speaking, the world we live in, with computers everywhere, cheap storage, and easy fast internet access for so much of the world, has only been around for about two decades, maybe three. NOTHING like this has ever existed before, and businesses, culture, and laws have been very slow to catch up.
I’m not saying pirating is right or wrong, just that the whole idea is still so new that society hasn’t caught up to it yet.
OMG I’m on a technical Discord server where some brilliant people spend all day responding to technical questions on a niche subject and it makes me SO ANGRY that all that knowledge is tucked away inside Discord, non searchable, and going to disappear some day.
So now I use the Discord Chat Exporter CLI program every couple of months to save all of that knowledge into text files on my computer.
What is it? What functionality are you looking for?
I watched Jaws (1975), my first time! It was so good.
Two things stood out to me. One, I wasn’t expecting the movie to have such different first and second acts. It worked, but it surprised me. And two, Richard Dreyfuss’ character is incredibly well acted and fun. I don’t know, I was expecting the movie to feel “old”. Not only did it not, but his character in particular stood out as so well done and so fun to watch.
I didn’t see anyone mention SailfishOS.
I bought a Jolla Mobile with SailfishOS when they came out and I LOVED it. It’s a fast smooth beautiful user interface, has Android app support, and truly is Linux. Like, it comes with a Terminal, full root access is easy to unlock, uses BtrFS, Wayland, the Linux standard hierarchy… It was wonderful.
The Jolla Mobile is pretty old now, but I think there are still phones you can get it on.
I assume you mean the Japanese thick blanket futon and not the American fold out bed futon?
I slept on a futon in Japan for two years. It was a couple of months before my body got used to it, but I was still turning throughout the night due to sore shoulders.
I can’t imagine sleeping on one without a true tatami flooring, since in essence it’s part of the bed.
My channel is not very good 😅 but I make videos just because I love talking about old video games and want an excuse to talk about them more. New videos come out every Tuesday and Saturday because that’s when my co-host is off of work and can watch them with her mom. 🙂
In The Phantom Menace, the entire podrace scene. Yes, it’s goofy as heck, but man does George Lucas know how to make some pure campy exciting fun.
In A New Hope, the trench runs. God, they’re just SO COOL, especially on a big screen.
In The Force Awakens, Han being rescued by the Resistance, from the time Han Solo is captured to the time Leia shows up, is a masterclass example of editing and music.
