I don’t find it surprising. His base spends a huge amount of time talking about other people’s genitalia; especially school children’s genitalia when they’re trying to use the bathroom.

Someone come get grandpa

Considering I can look up their supposedly infringed work and literally not even find a single legitimate copy to buy, but hundreds of links to download for free… maybe they just have a skill issue.

If it works, it works. Really any old cheap pcie card will work, if you just need video out of any kind the card type need not be specific. Glad you got it to work.

Federation means any content posted to any federated instance gets cached on your side and you become a hoster of it.

This includes if someone posts or creates an instance for child porn and starts spamming it. You’re possibly liable. and then have to deal with reviewing and cleaning it up to cover your ass.

Get a used SFF office PC low profile card off Ebay. They often have chipset wattages around 25 or so and easily run on slot power only

Something like this: https://www.ebay.com/p/1958445856 (idea only, not endorsing this seller).

Anything of a semi modern format with a pcie interface thata not an outright scam card will be fine for VGA no-driver video output. IME older AMD/ATI cards seem to boot better than oder NVidia cards…

Yeah, and my honest response to that is “too damn bad”. Reddit is a dying platform and they will continue to abuse you for profit.

I got banned for reporting obvious spam bots and Reddit never even responded to an appeal. They don’t give a flying fuck about any user. Make an alt and run the gauntlet of the automatic ban evasion detection, or never go back again. Those are your options, sucks to suck.

Does it fucking matter? Take the hint. You can still log into your account and edit comments. Wipe that shit clean then close your account and never look back. Nothing there is worth participating in anymore.

That’s what I always do. There are smaller creators that I support via donations or patreon but I never pay directly for the content itself.

you can’t tell me what to do!

It’s their se domain I saw it on, but most of their older domains also display this

Not with that attitude you can’t!

Yeah it’s legit, it’s been up a hot minute (since May iirc). I clicked the wrong zlibrary bookmark out of reflex and then remembered how hilarious the scare screen was.

More hilarious jokes have never been told in history

Let’s see the lifestyles of the CEOs for Springer, Wiley, and Elsevier for comparison.

FBI be like:

I… don’t condone such behavior but I also don’t hate this idea lol

Thank you for your service o7

I donate to quite a few people close to me, as many are much worse off than my family and I are. I help them with projects, car repairs, house repairs, and dinners when things are tight. They never ask, I offer, and they’ll accept maybe 50% of the time. I keep good company.

I’ve also put a few hundred dollars this one election cycle towards a few select political campaigns I care about, especially now that I’m in a good paying job. Not something i’ve done before, and it’s not much but enough to at least feel like I’m helping get rid of fascists.
