Not all of Germany. There is this one for example, works like a charm:

…and Archive.org

TBH I was confused when I came across the term “sideloading” for the first few times because I thought it was something new. Part of the plan I guess. Damn.

Mark my words: It will be Vance, not Trump who gets to be the first King of America.

The future is bleak.

I agree we need to get rid of all the bullshit you mentioned - but I don’t think giving up our anonymity or more gated communities (like facebook, twitter, instgram and all those fucked up places) are the solution.

All good advice. I used to find a lot of stuff by entering “site:rutracker.org” behind my query in my favorite search engine - don’t know if that still works but I never needed an account there…

Remember to donate to them tough - and btw. they are actually running their services for radical left activists, not filesharing… so I guess it would be cool to please not strain their servers too much.

I want to leave Windows behind… abcde seems the way to go for Linux.

On Windows I use EAC, it’s great but requires a little work to set up. There are a lot of tutorials for it if course.

I’d prefer my internet free…

“Life is a one way street, I’m doing doughnuts.” (Aw Man Oh Dear)

Check out Netguard. It’s an app that pretends to be a VPN client so most of your traffic has to go through it - and then you can deny/allow internet access per app. Even works without root.

So here I am, growing older all the time
Looking older all the time, feeling younger in my mind
And here I am, doing everything I can
Holding on to what I am, pretending I’m a superman

Yes. 1-5 are way better than 7 though, especially 2. But whatever.

Oh no, I hoped it was SamSho…

Loved both Olli Olli games on the Vita. Fun times.

Is it really dead? I used a mirror just yesterday…

I’ve had that app for ages. And I only use F-Droid…

I can’t believe these are the times we live in. The services of the Internet Archive are invaluable for scholars and students alike. No library can afford all the printed books/journals or licenses needed for an adequate approach to most topics. And to be honest, shadow libraries are also much needed when publishers lock away vital knowledge (which was often gained through support from public grants).

This seems just another example of how capitalism will bring about the downfall of our civilization as it hinders the progress of science.
