Pyrin@kbin.melroy.orgOPto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Pirating Santas, What are you gifting yourself this year?22·7 months agoDude, what you speak of is just plain silliness. Do you not understand that in the realm of pirating, you take risks just for simply downloading in what the laws say is ‘illegal’?
There is no such thing as ‘safe’ when it comes to downloading except getting a clue or a suspicion about what you’re downloading and where it’s from.
Again, it is common sense. Pirating is all about risk and reward. Risk, whether you infect your machine or get penalized by your ISP or get fined/jailed for your piracy. Reward, the files you acquire that aren’t a blip on the radar of your ISP and doesn’t contain malware or viruses.

Too fucking late.

I mean, if you think your life is shit? Go watch a handful of police bodycam videos. Look at how many ways people turn their lives upside down. Turning traffic violations into felonies. Multiple felons on the run. Getting shot. And an assortment of other active crimes right before your eyes.
You sometimes just wonder how bad of a life they’ve made themselves live in, compared to yours.

Pyrin@kbin.melroy.orgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What fraction of holiday gifts do you ignore, regift, or discard?2·7 months agoEveryone knows that if I want something, it had better be useful or meaningful. Anything less, I’m discarding.
Pyrin@kbin.melroy.orgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Just me or Xmas (and new years eve) makes you even more depressed?7·7 months agoXMas just makes me feel exhausted and wishing it’d be over. I’ve steadily grown less and less festive over the years. I just can’t get that worked up, every year, over any holiday. And XMas is the worst of it because it’s everywhere all around you. You can’t go anywhere or listen to anything or talk to anyone without it ever being brought up.
I’m tired of the pressure to buy this or buy that. I’m tired of this month long pause with people because of how hyperfocused they are to celebrate a holiday that’s been so tainted by capitalism that any spirit left over has been drained.

Pyrin@kbin.melroy.orgto News@lemmy.world•Israel to close embassy in Ireland as it criticises 'anti-Israel policies'435·7 months agoThese are not the same jews from 80+ years ago. How generations have changed and the well has been poisoned. I sympathize not with today’s Jews and today’s Israel as I would for the Jews and Israel of generations past.

Because Reddit Said So 😭101·7 months agoSpez knows he is at the mercy of some of these same kinds of CEOs. Then again, Spez only cares about Spez and cares little of the Reddit community.

Pyrin@kbin.melroy.orgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How are you preparing your family for the inevitable, life insurance/will/etc?2·7 months agoTo be quite honest, I’ve not made a single bit of effort in making a will, nor have I decided on life insurance nor have I made any arrangements to heirs or anything else. My family is beyond trusting, to me, so that is entirely out the window regarding them. And another thing is that my ‘retirement’ plan is a plan of permanence at my own discretion, so the thought of making a will or having life insurance is on the bottom of a priority list.
My main concerns when I decide my time is up, is where I’m going to be and how much I want to leave behind and for whom. That’s pretty much it.
How little of a fuck you give for modern times and just live in the past.
Pyrin@kbin.melroy.orgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•When applying for a new job do most employers still require drug scans and do they also go through your social media?2·7 months agoI’ve not recalled an instance where employers go through your social media. First, it’s none of their business and second, they don’t even know where to look because I haven’t shared or told them. What they should be concerned with is whether I’ve committed any crimes or if I have anything that jumps out at them that makes them consider or not consider me. Social Media should never be a determinable factor.
Pyrin@kbin.melroy.orgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•what advice was great when you first heard it, but has aged like milk since then?452·7 months agoAny dumb and vaguely open-ended advice. Like “just be yourself”.
What if you’re improving yourself because the real you sucked? Do you just give that all up and return to what you were? Whoever first said that piece of advice, obviously didn’t think it through enough.

Is there any free software to download to help?141·7 months agoWell, OP failed to even detail what the hell model it is. As is the case with 95% of all tech questions where nobody states what model of computer it is despite it being stupid easy to know.
Pyrin@kbin.melroy.orgto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How likely will "Cloud Storage" eventually replace Local Storage?101·7 months agowhere every computer is just a chromebook
It’s horrible. We already have suffered a decade of Chromebooks and it’s only contributing to e-waste because of how restrictive Google has made them and every manufacturer just falling over it.
We’re already here with cloud storage and it’s already a bad idea. Any seemingly good idea that comes across the minds of tech corporations, they will overwork themselves to make it the shittiest idea ever by their execution.

Pyrin@kbin.melroy.orgto News@lemmy.world•Trump backtracks on campaign pledge to bring down grocery prices131·7 months agoTrump only took presidency for two reasons:
To not go to jail/be prosecuted.
Fame.
Keep pissing in the wind, to those thinking he’ll do even less of a quarter of the things he ‘promised’ to do. Has the first 4 years with this guy told anyone anything? Dumb Americunts.
Double-Negatives sound pointlessly made up. The more I look into about them, the more I just think how pointless it is.
