Boost is the best frontend app for IMO.

Haven't found it in Annas Archive, will need to do a more thorough search later.

Is there a way that I can get the book without giving an ex-Facebook exec money?

This is the biggest thing stopping me from donating to Firefox, or Mozilla in general. CEO salary should not be that high for basically a not-for-profit.

I will donate to Wikipedia, signal, KDE, or other projects that I'm passionate about. But it definitely leaves a sour taste if you hear that the money is not well spent.

Nintendo, while aggressively litigious, do so to maintain the value and exclusivity of their IP.

Their games also never go on sale, and all sell really well over time, unlike many releases from other publishers.

The result is that Nintendo are able to release a solid cadence of high quality, first party games free of other forms of aggressive monetisation, maintaining the value of the games as art.

This is such a monkeys paw. You have a drive with $500 million USD of Bitcoin, but the drive is somewhere in the local landfill.

Such a curse, I can't imagine the regret they feel every day getting up for work.

After 10 years though, isn't it just gone/destroyed? Rain/corrosion would have destroyed the drive by now.

I'd love to see it fail completely. I'm hoping that musk makes it a site that you have to pay a subscription to see anything at all on there so everyone can finally give up on it.

I think you could happily live your life not knowing who he is. I will say that he's a master at knowing what will make someone click on his videos.

Your country is insane.

In any other democratic nation in the world, a politician saying this would be finished.

I hope for the sake of humanity that all the sane people in the US go out and tells everyone they know that cares about democracy and the rule of law what Trump is planning to do, especially in the swing states.

Even if you're not on social media, you'll probably still have a shadow profile on Google/Metas servers. My 13 month old baby has a library of images searchable in Google photos and a profile photo in the app. It's convenient, but incredibly creepy.

Just wondering what a rough split is of people using either Usenet, torrents, or both?

I've only just discovered Usenet and while it is paid, it is very cheap and much more convenient than torrents.

Using torrents as well with the *arr suite set up for my various Linux ISOs.

I see it referenced constantly here, not quite as much on Reddit. I know what it means, but just wondering why such the popularity over on this side of the fence?

Very excited (sopuli.xyz)

I really didn't think this was going to happen. Lemmy is missing an app at the level of boost for reddit.

If the UX is close to what BFR was, then this will really help with platform migration.
