Basically I want to download a serie in a specific language and absolutely nowhere I can find it and recently I saw that the serie is available in the language I want in The Pirate’s Bay but I know the bad reputation of the site and I have never used it....
Yeah, “don’t do anything” is horribly advice, at least in Germany.
I managed to avoid the lawsuit by showing the lawyers who wanted to fleece me that I had legal representation and collected enough evidence in my favor to make it difficult.
All they had was a file and an IP address.
It was a back-and-forth of letters between me, them and the court, which eventually refused to formally open a trial.
Yes, I hired a lawyer for consultation.
Since I was very poor at the time, I could get the cost for it reimbursed from the state, after laying bare my finances in front of a judge.
As for the seriousness, the legal firm moving against me had opened a case before a court in Munich (500km from where I lived) and I had to plead my case in writing to the court.
Next step after a lot of legalese back and forth would have been a summons before the court in person, which didn’t happen. The letters just stopped.
In the end, I paid 60€ for fees and postage. They had wanted me to pay 2000€ to settle and my lawyer told me if it goes before a judge, worst probable outcome would have been 600€ in court and lawyer fees.

This is my stick. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
My stick is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life.
Without me, my stick is useless. Without my stick, I am useless. I must throw my stick true. I must throw straighter than my enemy who is trying to stick me. I must throw it at him before he throws at me. I will …
My stick is human, even as I am human, because it is my life. Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its weaknesses, its strength, its branches, its knots, its wood and its bark. I will keep my stick clean and ready, even as I am clean and ready. We will become part of each other. We will …
Before God, I swear this creed. My stick and I are the defenders of my country. We are the masters of our enemy. We are the saviors of my life.
So be it, until victory is America’s and there is no enemy, but peace!

Personally, I think that one standard port for everything on every phone is a good thing. That way everyone’s efforts for development and optimization are bundled.

Recently, I’ve been using linux(tried multiple distros). I’m curious about how linux works, it’s architecture! Is there a book, guide, video, etc to learn about linux? By using linux, I get to know something. It would be better If I know how linux works!
I’m just tired. On the last post about having Linux at our work, many people that seems to be an IT worker said there have been several issues with Linux that was not easy to manipulate or control like they do with Windows, but I think they just are lazy to find out ways to provide this support. Because Google forces all their...
One of our customers previously had an IT provider who set up an all-linux infrastructure.
He told us it almost brought his business down, since he was unable to find employees.
Every time he mentioned that they’d have to work with a Linux PC (as a secretary or bookkeeper) they backed out.
My significant other ate cucumbers and onion with some ranch. I called it a cucumber onion salad. She says there aren’t enough ingredients to call it a salad, because “it takes multiple ingredients”. I pointed out she had three and asked what the minimum is. She refuses to answer so I ask Lemmy.
I’ve been using Linux as my main OS for a couple of years now, first on a slightly older Dell Inspiron 15. Last year I upgraded to an Inspiron 15 7510 with i7-11800H and RTX3050. Since purchasing this laptop I’ve used Manjaro, Debian 11, Pop OS, Void Linux, Fedora Silverblue (37 & 38) and now Debian 12. I need to reinstall...
So fixing it is literally just what you’d have to do before reinstalling anyway. Reduce your root partition from a live system, increase swap partition, re-initialize swap. Done.
Also, the Debian installer tells you how big a swap partition it creates and asks you if that is what you want twice.
Oh yeah, I always use the graphical expert installer. If the normal installer defaults to 1GB of swap without telling you, that’s pretty bad.
1GB swap is pointless IMO. Either make the swap space twice your RAM or don’t bother.
Still don’t know how that could fuck up drivers though. On a normal system, I don’t even use swap anymore.
yes I know. (Besides, Debian’s official documentation isn’t the wiki, but the Debian handbook).
The point is, on Debian you don’t need the wiki. Things that are a long manual process on Arch (best example: Nextcloud) are already preconfigured or there’s a ready made solution available.
I’m talking about third party software, not what’s in the repository.
It’s usually available as .deb or .rpm and nothing else.
On Arch someone may or may not have converted it and put it in the AUR, and it may or may not be maintained.
Besides, I run Sid, which isn’t point release nor outdated.
I literally never had a visible bug on Arch, whereas my last Ubuntu install greeted me with an error message because some part of gnome crashed right on first boot.
I realize this is anecdotal, though.

Whats your favorite free open source software that everyone should try?
Lemmy seems like the right place to ask this. Personally I’ve really enjoyed Gurgle, which is a FOSS Wordle clone app.
