rinze@infosec.pubto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•In praise of libgenEnglish2·1 year agoI’m not completely sure. Sometimes I find stuff in one site I don’t find in any of the other two. Also, I don’t know how often catalogues are synced.
rinze@infosec.pubto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•In praise of libgenEnglish38·1 year agoYes. I combine libgen with Anna’s Archive and Z-Library and there’s very, very little I can’t find.
Combine that with KOReader and this is pure bliss.
I like it a lot, but sometimes I feel he’s going to get eaten alive by the character he’s created. He should tone it down a notch sometimes.
rinze@infosec.pubto Technology@beehaw.org•Enshittification Continues: Discord to begin showing advertisements on it's free platform9·1 year agoYou’re right, I completely misinterpreted the comment. The thing is that “voice” is a very specific term within IRC, and I got confused :D
rinze@infosec.pubto Technology@beehaw.org•Enshittification Continues: Discord to begin showing advertisements on it's free platform15·1 year agoIf you mean that in some channels only some people can actually “talk”, I think it depends on the configuration of the channel, but it’s a possibility.
I thought people used Discord because you could have video / audio chats (not sure about this, I’ve used it very sparsely.)
And then there are Open Source projects that use Discord as the documentation repository. Hell is a place on the Internet, apparently.
rinze@infosec.pubto Technology@beehaw.org•Enshittification Continues: Discord to begin showing advertisements on it's free platform50·1 year agoIRC still rules. No ads in my irssi.
Damn, I was used to work around shitty stuff on Teams. Are you telling me they’re going to push another, different set of bugs on me now?
rinze@infosec.pubto Technology@beehaw.org•Reddit gets ready for IPO, setting a top valuation of $6.4 billion5·1 year agoWhat has been your involvement with Reddit as a user so far? I’m trying to understand what users are getting those offers.
rinze@infosec.pubto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•sci-hub - any recent sightings?English4·1 year agoSome people have already commented how to find it.
However, on a tangential note: last I heard, they stopped adding new papers due to a trial in India, but I never found out the outcome of that. Anyone has news about this, or did I dream it?
rinze@infosec.pubto Technology@beehaw.org•Reddit signs $60M contract allowing AI company to train its models on the social media platform's content3·1 year agoI just spent a while today deleting all my posts and comments. At this point they’ll probably have plenty of copies of it, but at least the content is not up for them anymore.
Just trying to see if I can survive without an account there (the “forum fediverse”, if that makes sense, is getting better and better) and then it’ll go to the same place my Twitter and Facebook handles went a while ago.
rinze@infosec.pubto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Spotify does not support travel?English2·1 year agoI created my account in Spain around 2009, moved to Canada in 2014 and came back to Spain late last year. Never had a problem with this :-?
rinze@infosec.pubto Technology@beehaw.org•New Huawei Phone Shows China Continues Bypassing Biden's Chip Embargoes1·2 years agoThere was a very nice episode of the Odd Lots podcast about this: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-12-07/huawei-mate-60-pro-chip-breakthrough-shocks-computing-world?srnd=oddlots
The way it’s written fits very well with the madness that’s AWS, though.
Yes. And on Microsoft Teams that triggers a chat call.
In my experience, Yandex has always been better for piracy than any other search engine.
