Oh look at that. it’s ‘Turns out corporations aren’t your friends’ o’clock.

I know the feeling. I’ll have to see if I can find a copy to give it an honest try on my own.

Second hand information here from trek bbs but it’s… Not good.

Happy to help :)

So… z-library? https://z-lib.gs/

The one minority group EVERYONE has a non-zero chance of joining, and the one minority group nobody wants to really think about for that exact reason.

They would rather spend money making hurdles for people like me, my brother, my sister, my aunt, and millions of others to bash against until we give up than to spend that same money and time Helping.

Same boat man. ‘OK I’ll throw a few schmeckles in because the author does need the compensation, but i’m getting the actual book elsewhere.’

Meta, even if you aren’t seeding it still counts, because if you had the books already you wouldn’t need to grab them from elsewhere, and you refusing to seed makes you a fucking leech.

‘We investigated ourselves and found no wrongdoing.’

So where’s the RIAA/MPAA/etc now that it’s a Big Company doing this? They were the ones screaming murder about torrenting in years past. So go on. Go after these guys who are doing piracy on a literally industrial scale.

Considering the voltages and amps going through it is safe to assume those are fairly thick solid copper wires yes.

I’m going to disagree with you on the sentement. We need a better infrastructure for EVs, and non-tesla vehicles can use those charging stations (either via adaptor, or a few use that same plug type.)

oh that isn’t to say I don’t have digital, backed up in a few places. I simply recognize that legally speaking everyone is now outright saying ‘you do not own this we are giving you a license to use it.’

yea no. I am going to ensure my things will go either to my niece, or to those I feel are deserving when i shuffle off this mortal coil.

And glory to yours!

This isn’t nostalgia. This is ‘Unless i own the physical thing, they can take it away because with digital you never really own it you only have a license to use it.’

I made hot tea … FOR THE GLORY OF THE EMPIRE!

You beat the cursed device into submission for the sake of basking in the glory of a good game.

Also. No Oddjob. Those who are not completely new who pick oddjob have no honor.

Sounds rather lovely.

Where are all the SHTF Cosplayers?

The real life SHTF isn’t like red dawn or mad max…

Probably some kind of plugin or script to run… i forget the specifics because literally grab the kindle version, then search z-library.

For all of Gene’s faults?

I loved that about the man.

Don’t you sarcastically vulcan salute me!
