Why does this sub exist? To shit on Apple? Literally all the comments are neckbeards complaining about this or that. Wtf?

I can’t reveal too much but MS’s long game is to have everyone sign up for a Live account. They want to do what Apple did with Apple ID and iCloud, making every customer sign up for one. Expect more of this.

“Phone company, internet”

Lol, there you go. Your ISP and wireless carrier are THE worst. They also have a lot of your financial info that they sell off. Tracking too. Your carrier routinely pings your phone for get location and records the calls, where you were at the time, how long etc. Unless it’s encrypted, they see and harvest it all.

ISPs don’t have as much liberty but they too track and sell off a fair bit of your life. They also have your financial info as most almost run a background check these days.

This is like giving Hitler a thumbs up because you saw him lean down and pet a stray dog…

Spotify cannot tell if you record a song. So no, it won’t get you banned. But as others have said, OSes have built in piracy protection.

With that said, it’s a terrible way to pirate songs. You can find most anything on torrents. Grab yourself some nice flac rips and encode them to a nice AAC format. Spotify uses really shitty encodes, you’re not getting lossless through them.

I used them for a few weeks before they rolled out their crypto scheme. It honestly felt like they monetized “privacy”, nothing more. So I bailed having zero faith any of their shit worked like they wanted us to think it works.

Why is their contact point another URL lol

You know it won’t matter, Musk isn’t complying with shit. The flippant way he moved the servers shows he has zero interest in anything but himself.

Godspeed.

You don’t even have to go back that far. Lately I’ve been trying to find a few movies from the mid to late 90’s and they just don’t exist. Even streaming services don’t have them. It’s sad that many movies that aren’t even 30 years old are just lost to time.

It starts getting better when you hit mid 20’s but having a place like Oink again (not just for music) would be something!

Or a browser and the internet. It’s a very low bar.

He shot them dead. It’s a figure of speech, meaning the shot was fatal. So the headline is fine. He shot dead a cat. He shot dead an old lady. He shot dead a black kid.

Yes. Yes that’s bad. That’s what they want. Same tactics used car salesman employ: wear them down.
