yup tax on empty units in general would help a lot including rent prices, if you want to not pay the extra tax, better lower your rent to a point people can afford. So the tax needs to be high enough for this decision to be made.

yup, what you post publicly is public. It’s the reason I find it irrational when people are complaining about X now lets blocked users see your posts. Your posts are public, people who created a fresh account can see your posts, it is already public, blocking stopping them from viewing your posts only gave you a false perception of privacy.

The only advantage of fediverse is you can choose an instance that doesn’t sell your browsing habits, other instances can only see your public actions like public posts and votes.

and then download a house

I remember to swear by megaupload because all the other upload sites uses extremely sketchy ads and allow the fake download buttons.

Now Jdownloader is the only way for me to download non-torrents

the way we share payment info to sites is so backwards is the reason despite all the problems paypal had, it still provide a lot of value.

compared to legal sites stealing your personal data after telling you (it’s buried among the 100+ pages TOS you agreed to)

it can work if everyone does it. Unfortunately we can’t even do a boycott on a product properly so no chance for that to happen.

even if it’s not. There’s just a severe lack of thinking skills here. What do they think happens to the pirate copies people already downloaded will happen when drm is added to the store version? There’s a reason we keep saying DRM only punish legitimate customers.

Clearly these kind of people have relinquished their ability to think and let ads do the thinking for them.

pirates just need to for a while pretend to post in a way that piracy is really no more so they stop doing anything about it.

having proper bans in place do help, cutting number spoofing and rooting out local spam sources + barring voips that facilitate them means spam callers would have to connect internationally and cost more.

You can also keep that opinion to yourself when reading a book from a library. Voting in this case is like signing that you like/dislike it in the back cover

humans typically don’t visit [website]/fdfjsidfjsidojfi43j435345 when there’s no button that links to it

more or less you can’t link people to your site to purchase membership directly from the app. They have to visit the site themselves

probably easier to mess with the projector so it records a local file that is a copy of what is being projected, which would already been decrypted. With this if you can infiltrate the DRM company you only need the schematics of the projector, not an active malware to steal new keys.

it actually WAS really good when it first came out and for a few years, it was also back during the days where google still kind of follows the “don’t be evil” principle.

this would be a good case for lemmy to start supporting flairs like reddit does. No shame in copying legitimately useful features.

it’s better to call it X this way, we need to accept twitter is never coming back, and it’s high time users still on it to migrate.

o really? 💵💶💴💷

but seeing these are physical representation of those currencies… bitcoin’s emoji can be a usb stick (at least having an actual USB stick emoji can be useful in some cases like when making guides)

Also before the better twitch adblock that let you bypass adtime with a lower quality video, people do literally use the plugin that replaced the ads with purple screen.

That’s why everyone should get off it. Really people are just staying because muh followers
