It's really interesting how every situation like this ends up with corporations punishing honest people for trying to play by the rules, while people who don't play by the rules don't get punished at all (as in pirated Minecr

Yep, it is important to remember Metux was a sole guy supporting Xorg for many years while everybody else outright refused to touch the codebase. Then they blamed Metux for "breaking compatibility." While this sounds like a plausi

I find it ironic how people talk with a high hand about "Google dying", "Internet dying" and "AI eating everything" and then I open their website and it forces me to waste 10 seconds as cloudflare "checks&

It always infuriates me when people say Windows is all about games. Techies are so detached from reality they forget that people have creative hobbies and have to use industrial grade software. Doing creative hobbies on Linux is an act of

There is no sound evidence of having so much microplastics in the brain. The studies that show it are very broad, incomplete and did not check for false positives. "The main analytical method used in this study was pyrolysis gas chroma

Unfortunately developers cannot be blamed. Most customers give unrealistic deadlines that you can only meet if you use a framework. Convincing them to wait a little bit more time to do it right does not work, they will just hire somebody el

That's what I get with my software projects. People tell me that it sucks and I suck at code and other projects have it better, and don't forget to waste months of your time rewriting to Rust, and don't you dare to use unsafe

I wish that in 100 years Hitler becomes truly synonymous to "Satan", and instead of "satanic" or "demonic" people would say "hitleric". Because it sounds cooler and it suits the way how people throw &

This is what interested me for a long time. The media industry in particular demonstrates very well that DEI content is not only unprofitable; it is net negative to the companies that produce it. The state of the movie industry is such that

Hetzner was always like that, even before the AI wave. They lowball people with cheap pricing and arguably this attracts a lot of "unwanted" people, so Hetzner always acted strict on such issues. Last time I used them (pre-2020) t

This is not surprising. The companies received grants during covid lockdowns, so they started listing a lot of fake jobs. When the money dried up the layoffs followed, which was an expected outcome. Media does not let people know about the

I don't know what's hard about understanding "daily limit" model. If you can't download 11th book, just come back tomorrow and you can download 10 more books. You can download 10 more books the next day after that.

May be because they are not reselling anything. As far as I'm concerned, in a legal world you cannot get your textbook without paying first. Z-library gives you these books for free. If you reached your daily limit, you wait 24 hours.

This isn't true. They provide materials for free, but with a daily limit. That isn't to mention 10 books a day is a lot as you are not limited by download size. Even then, nothing stops you from waiting 24 hours. To say that they

My argument is that you shouldn't automatically trust it just because it's free. You shouldn't rely your entire infrastructure, and, perhaps, life, on it. If you do, there is no one at fault but you, because you passed all th

My parents always taught me not to take donuts from unknown people, especially when they're free. It's common sense and corpos take all fault for taking an easy fix to save their own developer hours at someone's else expense.
