The last I looked into it, the best way to do it was to get an older kindle so you could download the older DRM copies of books from amazon. But I think some newer books are using only the newer DRM which I don't think has been cracked.

It has probably been at least a year since I checked. If you do end up finding an updated method, I would be interested.

I would advise just creating ~/.bin or ~/.local/share/bin and dropping it in there. As long as you have permission to that directory, yt-dlp should be able to easily update itself.

There is a lot of development from China in the linux kernel. Also, to my knowledge there is a lot of chinese work in qemu and libvirt as well.

I was very against Biden dropping out, but i think this is a pretty good point. I think it is still very risky for her to run due to race and sex discrimination, but it might not be a predetermined loss at least.

Don't buy into tape. It is costly and is inferior to hard drives by most metrics for smaller scale operations. You can easily get 8TB hard drives for less than $20/TB. While tape is cheaper than that, the drive to actually use it is expensive, plus you get all the disadvantages of the tape itself.

Fun fact: you can probably buy a whole server, external sas card and disk shelf for less than the cost of a somewhat modern tape drive.

If you are wanting to store less than 100TB of data, it would probably be cheaper to use drives, then in 3-5 years buy another set of disks and still be ahead compared to tape.

Yes, but that is always possible with most protocols, including imap.

Take a look a FUSE and you will see all the creative things people have done with filesystems. Or DNS, lots of fun things have been done with that also.

Immigrants shockingly often vote conservative.

I am not sure what these results mean exactly. Perhaps the third generation is some specific type versus the second.

I'm liking thunder, it supports multiple accounts. Switching accounts is a bit bugged, i have to close the app to have all ui elements update properly.

They can do both, and if their stance is at all ideologically motivated, then it is necessary to focus on more than just the low hanging fruit of doing reviews.

The free software movement is more than just the free software existing. It is also congruent to the laws that permit it and extending rights

Right to repair is about more than simply fixing things. It's about going after companies and lobbying to get actual rights enshrined into law.

If you were willing to spend money, why not just get it from RH directly.

The union negotiations could include in the contract that AI generated actors are not allowed when SAG is involved.

That doesn't completely stop AI, since they could try to use non union actors or no actors at all.

The issue with AI is that it is software, and software can scale very quickly. So large amounts of jobs could very quickly get automated without allowing workers and the economy to slowly adjust over time. Switchboard operator was just a single job in a single industry.

It will also lead to more consolidation of wealth since existing bussinesses stand to make great savings getting rid of people, and the AI itself is privately owned. Funny enough, this could also blow up in their face since that creates inventive for people to vote.
