When these launched they seemed interesting. I liked the concept, and they still do, but the biggest flaw was basing them on windows. I've seen windows on low-power devices before, and I'm not going through that again.
It should be noted that Amazon was among the first to prove that buying isn't owning a few years ago when a book that many people had legally bought was automatically scrubbed feom devices. The title had been removed from the catalog, and any kindle which held it automatically removed it without the users concent, and they were given amazon store credit in return.
As much as I agree that something needs to be done to these companies, and that they deserve punishment, I think this approach would only result in leaks (even more) underreported, which makes it even worse.
Police metrics are governed by clearance stats, and pinning a crime on someone is enough for a case to count as "solved". If it goes to court, that's all they need, and it doesn't matter if the suspect is found guilty.
Kind of, but it's from my FreeBSD days. It was early 2000s, and at that point I'd been using it since version 3.3, and I was toying with 4.4, and I was getting into kernel optimization. I started removing the things I didn't need.
A lot of it was simple, such as firewire support, etc. Then I came to the section about peripherals. "AT keyboard? Yup, that's going"
Welp, turns out PS/2 keyboards were built on top of the AT keyboard subsystem. Luckily I could SSH into it and revert the change.
You have been assimilated, resistance was futile.
Seriously, though, I'm glad you're with us. The more people we get to embrace alternative approaches, the more viable the open standards will be.
According to their logic, you can set up a shellscript that repeatedly copies an ISO of theirs to /dev/null. That should bankrupt them after a week or so.
If buying is owning, piracy is still not stealing. Theft involves a tangible loss for someone else.
That's fine. I don't really claim to own the things I pirate.
You'll probably be fine with hetzner. If not, you can cancel whenever.
