I think people have already answered your question. Just to add on, think about stuff that happened before the creation of an IP regime. Were people not creating things back then?

I would also like to clarify that I'm not talking about forcing people to reveal their secrets. If you want to keep your thing a secret, you're welcome to. But, there should be no state prosecution if that thing gets made public.

And I do buy things if I enjoyed them and want to reward the creators. When I was a poor kid with no funds, I pirated a lot of videogames. Now that I'm a slightly older kid with some funds, I buy the games that I enjoy and my game piracy has gone down a lot. Without piracy, these future sales from me would have been lost because I probably wouldn't care about videogames. Not a justification, just my feelings.

You know, I did have this problem like a year ago. Except, it was a problem with saving the database. I don't know what happened but haven't faced it in a long time now.

  1. There are managers that will store them on their servers and others that are local.
  2. You can sync it through something like Google drive/Nextcloud.
  3. You should back up your password vault.
  4. Your device may be compromised, but your vault is still encrypted. Really depends on what kind of hack it is.
  5. You don't really unless they're an open source one like Bitwarden.
  6. Yes. Instead of remembering a lot of passwords, you remember the master password to your vault
  7. No. Because randomly generated passwords gated behind one secure password you remember is better than reusing the same/variations of one password.

You can try Bitwarden if you want a hosted solution that's easy to use. Or, use KeePassXC and compatible mobile apps while syncing it through a cloud service. I do the latter.

Have you checked that you're browsing from your instance? Liftoff has different feeds for different instances and if you go to a post through an instance you don't have an account on, you won't be able to vote.

Just go to the homepage and select the feed from the drop-down at the top on an instance you have an account in. I used to face the same problem until I realised what's going wrong.

Sometimes the only option in a lot of places. The pay and benefits are decent compared to private sector work, especially at the lower level.

Wait rarbg was shut down?

Are there any ones as good?

If you use adblock, you don't care about creator's point blank

This sounds a lot like not tipping being a bad thing.

Ads and tipping denigrate my daily experience. So I'm not going to suffer either.

Blocking ads is also just more secure as it's a vector for so many exploits.

In conclusion, I don't agree with them at all.

India here. I can drink tap water without boiling, it just has a slight chlorinated taste. That's why we prefer to filter it, rather than boil.

Thanks for the Better History one. Firefox has such a garbage history function.

Yeah man, keep huffing that copium.

Bitcoin has no long term plan for actually securing its chain. The fees don't add up to enough and the throughput is abysmal. Lightning is centralised and was disrupted because of chain congestion due to Ordinals.

Keep dreaming!

I think this is concentrated in the West. In Asia, the sentiment ranges from huh? to ooh that's nifty.

Dubai, Hong Kong and Singapore are quickly rolling out the red carpet for crypto businesses and coming up with actually feasible regulations around them.

Probably should also get it on the Google Play Store! F-Droid is a pretty niche market and Android has the widest audience.

I was using this when I first signed up for Lemmy and it definitely felt better than Jerboa.
