TBH the only reason I used their service was to send pirated stuff to friends. I didn’t want to compromise my own/my primary cloud.

I run 2x 1440p monitors at 165hz and 144hz fine

Sorry, no idea. I just shared the guide

Maybe BakaBT? Not as hard to get into as AB.

Thank you for this. I posted another guide to my new community !drm@lemmy.dbzer0.com, but I’ll post yours too on there.

I’d like to clarify that removing DRM does lie in a grey zone in many countries, including in the US due to some court rulings. In some countries the right to make a backup of your e-book might have priority over copyright law for example.

Interesting to see arrests still happening towards private trackers. I wonder how the Nordics fares nowadays when it comes to being the Mecca of filesharing, feels like the golden days have passed since long ago.

Thanks for sharing! I’ll try it out myself on KOReader :) Feel free to post on !ereader@lemmy.world as well

Please share the dictionary when available.

I’d say a fair idea is to host your own personal website with your resume, if you’re capable and/or want to learn. There are often examples you can base your portfolio on.

Thanks for changing your mind :)

Why is DRM necessary? In the EU, many countries mostly just use digital watermarking for their native language e-books bought from stores (e.g. Germany and the Nordics). We got the music industry to get rid of DRM on music files. I’d argue watermarking is enough to discourage people, and no matter the DRM or no DRM all books still find their way to shadow libraries. I agree, as Terence also argues, that this is a very non-intrusive DRM, but which still has many problems of… just being a DRM solution for one. The licensing fee to allow support for LCP is also absurd, and ranges from a few thousand USD to tens of thousands. There are therefore no FOSS apps capable of supporting the DRM, like KOReader or Librera. The solution in itself is not fully FOSS either.

And aren’t you annoyed by their arrogant tone and how they try to blame, guilt, and threaten their way forward?

A reminder that the people voting for these laws do not understand technology. They don’t get it. Yes, this law sucks, but even if it passes, I’d be really surprised if it was actually enforceable.

Yep. Just hoping that as LCP gains prominence, there’ll be more work to try and DeDRM it. Right now it’s mostly EU that’s pushing it

Didn’t they already have this before but removed it? At least in my country a “lite”-variant was available but they removed it like last year.

Independent documentaries can be, from my experience, quite hard to find and even purchase. They often have limited screenings, do not get any physical releases or to streaming services, and sometimes end up with licensing issues after some years if they’ve licensed music and sound for example. Maybe PTP has them, but I wouldn’t bet on it.

As mentioned, this is one of the reasons why Adobe DRM couldn’t longer be used according to the interpretations of the EU directive, and why they “had to” remove the option to download the DRM-protected ePub file and move to an app instead where they could make text-to-speech work.

At least you could easily DeDRM ADE. This seems a lot trickier due to there not being one universal solution and it being in-app.
