I had my ebay account restricted the same day I made it. Was really confused and frustrated as I had made the account to buy something

So I just made another account with my same email address just without any periods, have had that account for years. Still no idea why I was restricted at all the first time and not the second…

Syncthing (for obsidian notes, mostly. I know there are FOSS apps that do what obsidian does, but they just don’t feel as good for my purposes).

LibreTorrent

Not that there’s anything wrong with newpipe, just additional information:

Gin? Genetics? Giant?

Do you pronounce Origin like Oregon?

I personally find arguing pronunciation as entirely pointless when there are many words in English that get pronounced different based on a multitude of factors.

People also like to argue it’s an acronym, but do you pronounce NASA the same as you pronounce the first letter of each word of National Aeronautics and Space Administration?

Honestly? Just say it how it makes sense to you.

I have multiple one way syncs set up, I’ve never had any issues.

I think what Ubisoft and Microsoft don’t get is that SOME users are okay with subscriptions, but that’s a small bit compared to people who don’t.

Just cater to the niche that do want it and quit thinking you can make the whole market a subscription service.

I think it’s one of those things to purposely craft a point of engagement. Now you’ve made a comment about it

You can play it on your phone now days, with mods even

I’ve been seeing a lot of morrowind references recently

Ah, I missed this somehow when digging through the git page

Thank you

I’ve looked into Code Server, which is a github project I’ve found for self hosting VS Code, but it only works on Linux

Are you saying VS Code itself has a built in self hostable option?

And that’s the issue I in particular have. It’s a double standard and not only that, they’re using it to generate money for their own tools

It’s not the same as some kid pirating photoshop to play around with, or a couple who is curious about GOT and want to watch it without paying HBO.

This is a separate issue and I hate that this place is so reddit like that trying to talk about it gets “hurrr dur I guess you’re mad because AI and meta are just the current hate train circle jerk hurrr i form my own opinions hurr”

Like, no, I’m upset because this is a whole new topic of piracy use.

Meta stealing intellectual property and utilizing it for corporate gain is not the same as normal users pirating content. They are so far apart that it warrants its own discussion and cannot be lumped in together.

That’s not the take away you should be having here, it’s that a mega Corp felt that they should be allowed to create new content from someone else’s work, both without their permission and without paying

The guys making $32 a day on Chinese ships don’t get paid enough to care, that’s why it’s so easy to smuggle stuff to begin with.
