@Stahesh yes, the lack of ease of access to legal content is one of the main arguments for piracy and has been since for ever. even now with streaming services, they are just becoming the new cable where you have to have multiple ones to get all the content instead of paying one fee for cable and getting 100 channels with all their content. it's ridiculous. i just read apple is losing over a billion a year on their streaming. netflix got into green just 2 years ago. disney, paramout...all losses
@Stahesh same. we have a tax on memory mediums like hard rives, sd cards, even CDs, because they have the potential to store copyrighted content. so i have no moral issue with piracy whatsoever. but also, my time is not free, why should i pay for something i dislike and have no way of returning it and getting my time and money back? last time i pad for content was when john wick 4 was in cinemas. i pirated it but i also purchase a ticket to support it, though i never went to see it in person.
@UncleIroh europe is "the old continent" and because of that, there are little resources left. dense infrastructure, but manufacturing is completely dependent on imports of raw materials. by cutting off russia, europe has committed suicide. you are correct, it won't be pretty. i see no way out of the inevitable economic crash of quality of life here. but i think western europe will suffer way more than centra/eastern europe because only west lives above its means.
i think the books on your shelf tell the most about your personality. more than anything else. because books, you need to buy, get the physical copy, spend time reading it and then putting it on a shelf as proof you actually did read it and you found it worth keeping. nothing else can give an insight into ones psyche.
@Tfmonkey why do you think copper is 5$?
@pony have not seen these at lidl for a year now :(
@sardonicsmile gaslighting? buddy, did you take your medicine today?
Because you still have hope that this war will end with your honor intact. Stand in the ashes of a trillion dead souls, and ask the ghosts if honor matters. The silence is your answer.
