For those without Telegram:

Dear readers,

Since most of our team is from post-Soviet states, we would like to honor the creator of the Flibusta project, Stiver. Flibusta is a free online library that provides access to Russian-language literature, allowing free exchange of literature among users.

On October 22, 2024, after a month of being treated for glioblastoma, which was unfortunately not curable, Stiver passed away through euthanasia.

Today we would like to honor the memory of Stiver, who shared the same goal of providing free access to knowledge. Same as Flibusta, Z-Library was created in 2009 with the mission of giving everyone the opportunity to read and learn, regardless of their financial status. This man was able to bring his idea to life and create a place where the words and thoughts captured in books could circulate freely.

We are deeply saddened by the loss of a man who has been a true asset to the book world. His efforts have made knowledge available to all, helping countless people broaden their horizons and discover new worlds of inspiration.

His memory will live on in our hearts as a symbol of the endless possibilities of the written word, a world that is truly open to all. We must continue his work of spreading knowledge and culture, and may his good deeds inspire us all.

Rest in peace, Stiver. Your contribution to making the world a better place through access to knowledge is immeasurable!

I mean, I can't give you a source more infallible than...Google...but as a native English speaker, I can say the word "less" means less than something that is "free."

And listen, I'm not saying I agree with this opinion. In fact, the example I provide is proof that an argument over words like "less" and "free" are inconsistent at best. If anything, I believe the English language is pretty fucking stupid, but here we are.

At the end of the day, please be careful with your animal meat, friends!

Bone-less, not bone-free. There's a slight linguistic difference.

Side note: I find meatless wings (which just so happen to include no meat 🤔) to be way less hazardous and much more delicious than typical chicken wings. Just my two pennies.

Seems like he was being attacked by his own conscience.

Looking at IPTVsubs Pro pricing, as well. Would love to know what channels are available, but I guess I could sign up for a free trial. Mainly looking for Sky Sports, like OP.

Would love an Android app and list of providers, as well. I'm familiar with the IPTV-org list on GitHub, but not sure I've ever found a useful link.

Because they have more money than you and, according to the US legal system, that's all that matters.

I thought Xitter was going to be a bank! Honestly, who can follow the mentally-ill, cocaine-fueled ramblings of this man-baby?

Steal them Teslas!

...and three posts up Tesla is threatening to sue customers who want to resell their car. WTF, America?

Here's the post I'm referencing.

...for the ultrarich.

Isn't this assuming "active daily users" equate to people? Wouldn't it stand to reason that "active daily users" are simply bots Musk has allowed to proliferate throughout the platform?
