Congratulations, y’all deserve that and more!

I love ABS, I use it for both podcasts and audiobooks.

If the feds connect to the tracker before the file is fully seeded, the IP address of the lone seeder will be exposed. Torrents are good for their resistance to censorship, but they’re bad for privacy.

final hack~

over the past 7 days, we have released a hack every day, from NATO to Israel, we attacked many. we have one more gift for you all, its one minute till midnight so i’ll start the show~

we hacked The Heritage Foundation :3 (holy moly!!!) The Heritage Foundation is a conservative think tank in America, among the most influential public policy organizations. this organization is responsible for leading Project 2025, an authoritarian Christian nationalist plan to reform the United States government.

Project 2025 threatens the rights of abortion healthcare and LGBTQ+ communities in particular. so of course, we won’t stand for that! ^-

we have gained access to The Heritage Foundation’s database, with user data, logs, and other juicy info :D we also accessed 200GB+ of other, mostly useless, files in their server. these useless files wont be leaked.

mew mew i wonder what would happen if we leaked the passwords, email addresses, and full names of every user :3 every US government employee, even the Heritage president Kevin Roberts.

be gay do crime~

My dad introduced me to Napster and Weird Al.

I see, so what is the difference between the two?

I’ve been thinking of OSS and source available as interchangeable. But now it kind of seems to me that free software is interchangeable with open source software. Is it just a matter of branding?

You maybe replied before seeing my edit, but I actually quoted that article in the edit.

Doesn’t FOSS refer to software this is both free and open source? Not a union of free software and open source software? My understanding is that if a piece of software is not both open and free then it is not FOSS.

EDIT:

From the wiki page:

Free and open-source software (FOSS) is software that is available under a license that grants the right to use, modify, and distribute the software, modified or not, to everyone free of charge. The public availability of the source code is, therefore, a necessary but not sufficient condition. FOSS is an inclusive umbrella term for free software and open-source software.

While it would defeat most if not all audio DRM, this would result in a lossy capture, whether by line-in or Bluetooth.

That scan only scans your hard drive once an hour.

To check rss feeds for new podcast episodes, you need to go to the settings of each podcast and schedule it to scan the podcast feed.

Ok Boomer.

Yeah, VAC is the only AC I’m aware of that doesn’t have a driver component.

You could. Food is there for stealing. Land is there for growing on. People might shoot at you for trying, but you could.

I assume you’re speaking in jest?

There is no ethical consumption.

I’m pretty sure that phrase isn’t actually a call to apathy.

Not attempting to make a call to apathy. On the contrary, I just reject the idea that what you buy from who is leading to any material improvement in society. I think there are much better ways to push for positive change. Like sure, don’t buy the thing, but don’t fool yourself into thinking you’ve made a difference. Helping your community/mutual-aid, direct action, these are the sorts of things that I think go a lot further towards resulting in positive material changes.

I don’t know, I’m American, I can’t really eat if I don’t indirectly pay money to the largest neo-imperialist empire in the world (who is currently funding a genocide btw).

There is no ethical consumption. You either consume unethically or you die.

You can self host gitea and begin mirroring the Lemmy repos yourself right now.

I certainly didn’t mean to make any moral judgments about the kid. I’m not even sure that I think it’s morally wrong (unwise and legally wrong, no doubt, I just don’t think his actions hurt any person and I don’t care if an action hurts a corporation). The kid is clearly talented and I hope he gets the treatment he needs. I sure hope he can eventually make a living with his talents and perhaps eventually use his talents towards positive change.

I used to work as a pentester. It’s an open secret that like a good chunk of people in the industry are former criminals. But former is kind of the keyword. Not only is he doing crime after being arrested and still under surveillance, but he can’t even lie and say he won’t do it again. The kid is unhireable, at least not until he can get his compulsions under control.
