When I go into Steam and see a nice game, I buy it. Only in the user agreement it states that purchased games are merely a service and can be revoked at any time for any reason.

Most kings who didn’t came to power through birth right did it it through crime and violence and made themselves king. Only with Trump people voted for it. What a boring dystopia we live in.

What you’re describing isn’t working on holiday but being a digital nomad, what your boss suggested. Friends of mine do it too. Go somewhere for 3 months, work from there. Usually in the same timezone or close to it and a cheap country so renting an airbnb isn’t too expensive. From The Netherlands there are many options. Friends of mine go to Portugal(-1), Brazil(-4), South Africa(+1), Turkey(+1), Egypt(+1), Montenegro(+0), or sailing on the Mediterranean.

I believe there are free VPN services. Maybe Proton has a free version? I know they offer a basic free version for Vivaldi browser. Just make sure they provider doesn’t log traffic.

Now is black Friday, some VPN services are 75% off, that may be an option if you have at least something to spare. Sure, it’s money, but a fine for illegal downloading costs much more.

Otherwise public wifi spots but speeds are probably shit.

Another option is installing Tails on a bootsble USB stick and connect through tor. But then speeds are also shit.

Your argument is basically “according to their made up rules it doesn’t work like that, so your arguments are bullshit”.

That sounds a lot like defending them.

As a customer you basically have zero rights, when you sign their user agreements. Even when a restaurant kills your partner in a themepark, because they once signed the user agreement for their streaming service (Disney). As a pirate I have more rights than paying customers. You can say what you want but this is factually true. Legally it works like this.

So when I get angry about how they force people into their fucked up world with stupid rules and restrictions they made up, you may be right it doesn’t work like that when you follow their rules. I don’t pay them, I didn’t sign their agreements, so their rules do not apply to me. If I get busted for having an illegal copy of their content I’ll pay a fine and it’s done (happened when I accidentally downloaded something when I went to Germany once).

Back in the days a pirated copy of something was less than the real thing. Worse quality, missing the DVD extras, no updates etc. These days the pirated version has less restrictions and limitations than the real service. No ads, better quality, not lacking behind a season, never pulled from the platform, never broken because they stopped support and only even though it’s an offline game a connection to the now csncelled sever is mandatory, offline download is actual offline download, no locked content like DLC’s, etc.

Well, I mean… It does work technically. Never insomnia issues, guaranteed.

It’s true! It’s invisible to most. Only the 1%ers can see it. If you can’t see it, you’re not worthy.

I make figs jam without sugar. It’s much healthier but won’t last that long. Tastes amazing!

Depends on the king. Trump does it to thousands.

Great. What about his prison sentence?

I’d go for usenet. Only downloading, no uploading. Torrents are shit.

This is true, but I wouldn’t do it when the jam is very liquid. And if your jam starts to mold fast, it means it doesn’t contain extra chemicals to keep it good as well as much less sugar. So it’s better if it molds faster. Just keep it in the fridge and eat it fast. Many store bought factory jams can stay good for over a year after being opened. Imagine what it takes to keep it from molding.

I thought it was about 6 or 7

Would you sign my waterboarding jug?

Americans live in a world where their “left” is already pretty far right. Someone who isn’t that right but more centre / mildly left I indeed consider normal. It’s still kilometers (miles) away from far left.

This isn’t satire. This is the actual cure to fascism.

Stop buzzing my harsh buddy

They force it on to us that we cannot own products anymore but instead they are “a service” where we are stripped of our rights, are costantly fed with restrictions locked behind more payments and broken products never to be finished as they don’t care about it: they already got their money. And since we don’t have rights, as stated in the user agreements, we can just go fuck ourselves.

So you may be right, that it doesn’t work “like that”, but that’s something those fucked up companies forced upon us without consent. Stop defend those companies dude.

Maybe Israel can convert Gaza into an Olympic town and football stadium. Free workers too!

The Olympics were also held in nazi Germany. Both FIFA and the International Olympic Committee do not care about human rights. They only care about money.
