So uh yeah as we all know a lot of amphetamines have already been “open source” for a long time.
And we also know the DEA really doesn’t approve of private production… Vyvanse itself only really was created as a produg because of their control of the amphetamine market and their desire for products with lower abuse potential.
If we could get the DEA out of the way anyways, it would make more sense to just make dextroamphetamine as it’s simple, cheap and effective.
VPN and have them punch in to a cheap or free cloud instance that acts as a hub router.
You give them a config file and they feed it to their device or router, use a private subnet in the 10.0.0.0/8 range because everyone is on 192.168.1.0/24 and then they just hit it at 10.0.0.1 or whatever.
I like Wireguard but you might have to use something with layer 2 support if you want service discovery to work for true zero config.
Install a modchip, or as we used to call them a “remote starter” lol
I’m sure someone still makes a product that you can splice into the wiring harness. And if they don’t… There’s a market for it
Ballsy? He’s an outright copyright troll and anyone celebrating him here in the comments should read the article…
He wrote a knockoff book and then tried to claim Tolkien’s characters as his own and sue his estate? Does nobody remember the days of BS software patent trolls trying to claim they invented “the app” or “method for clicking on things with the mouse cursor?” Do we remember how mad we were at those shysters?
This guy deserves whatever he gets.
Futurama did it too. Though I remember it being actually funny, without all the associated culture war baggage.
More of a commentary on Bender’s poor impulse control and minimal ethics than on society I would say
You can download from Spotify using Zotify. Albums, playlists, if you set it to Artist unfortunately you will get a bunch of singles and EPs that you have to clean up.
If you have Premium you can download at high bitrates, otherwise you get Ogg Vorbis at around 150 ABR. You can automatically transcode to whatever format you want, then I feed it to beets to catalogue and deliver it with Ampache.
I like the moderate bitrate OGGs myself, as I often stream from Ampache to my phone and our mobile service is quite slow. So this system works great for me.
Zotify works very well at downloading Spotify lists, from playlists to whole discographies. You have to sort the output a little as you’ll often get multiple copies of tracks due to remastered editions, songs released as singles etc. But overall it’s an incredibly easy way to download music.
Thanks, this sounds like a great way to start building a library and might actually be more effective than downloading massive torrents, especially as it claims to handle metadata and tagging effectively. Definitely will give it a try!
Whaaat Soulseek still exists? Thanks, will check it out
Despite being proud to still fly the Jolly Roger for most media I have to say that for the Linux gamer it’s nearly as cost effective just to put Steam games on your wishlist and wait for the sale notification. Lots of great games can be had for single dollars, you get support, patches, online play etc. so it’s not worth the effort to plunder them.
I found honestly it’s rare that a Steam game has issues on Linux these days and if it does, just refund it and get your $5 back. Otherwise as mentioned they are very hard to find.
I think that it’s an underlying Spotify issue for sure, namely that an album is often present as an explicit and censored version. But I feel like Zotify should be able to deal with this.
While songs show up in Zotify with the [E] you usually just see multiple copies of the album without any identifiers. One of these will be the “real” album, but there doesn’t seem to be a way to filter the others.
