For now I’m just ignoring, but it would be nice if I could systematically block these type of things. You know I interact so little, I’d rather just turn dms off.

Not sure about red note, but tiktok used to log all available Bluetooth decide and used to send it to their servers.

It was the major argument I heard when Indian govt banned tiktok. Not in the media, but in the policy advisory circles.

I’m guessing red note would do the same given the chance. My point being, you might be okay with your data being with China, you might be putting others data as well. Not discouraging you to use it, just be aware of the consequences.

I am fairly sure it’s GitS, but I could be wrong

I’m sure, I was pointing out why even as a customer you should be mad

The reason so many people are mad is sometimes the suit guy even comes back saying, sorry man didn’t find a discount, but here is your slip. Meanwhile he has changed the slip and added his name and would get the commission without doing anything.

For sketchy services in grey or illegal area, I’ve started paying month to month for exactly this reason.

Missing article was here It didn’t contain much other than dates it was filed and plaintiffs information. Which is a standard practice anywhere.

In July 2024, ANI filed a lawsuit against Wikimedia Foundation in the Delhi High Court — claiming to have been defamed in its article on Wikipedia — and sought ₹2 crore (US$240,000) in damages.[14][15][16] At the time of the suit’s filing, the Wikipedia article about ANI said the news agency had, “been accused of having served as a propaganda tool for the incumbent central government, distributing materials from a vast network of fake news websites, and misreporting events on multiple occasions”. The filing accused Wikipedia of publishing, “false and defamatory content with the malicious intent of tarnishing the news agency’s reputation, and aimed to discredit its goodwill”.[17][14][18][19]

The article is still up, Wikipedia calling ANI biased, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asian_News_International

So not really sure, why the massive outrage. Removing intricate details from ongoing lawsuits is standard practice.

While the lawsuit by ANI demands that editors who made the edit claiming ANI as govt mouth piece be identified, Wikipedia hasn’t done it yet and the article is right about setting a dangerous precedent if high court forces Wikipedia to reveal the names. But at the same time article is biased and has misleading information such as > In an unprecedented move, Wikipedia removed the page from its platform on October 21.>

You can see some well noted examples of articles being removed before from Wikipedia here . So there is clearly precedent for removal of articles. I used love vox a decade ago, but now I see these half truths/partial stories are a commonplace and I’m happy to have ditched vox now.

Not many of you left these days it feels, any debate I always see openSUSE is missing, I don’t use it myself atm, but it was my rock in the past. Either openSUSE community is not vocal or it’s just very tiny on lemmy.

Take nursing, there more than 2 countries I know that have easy entry if you are trained in nursing. And nursing may require study as well, but if your foundations are weak in Stem specially physics and maths, you can still do nursing. Do nursing and get a job easily in UK, Australia, Singapore, New Zealand, etc. There might be others too that have easy immigration for nursing.

Probably more like, scamming centers are mostly focused on foreigners (from Indian pov), so that’s ok.

So what has everyone moved on to?

Lol no I think quota is beyond redemption.

Burning fields in FarCry 3 jamming to skrillax.

Wanted a game, back then wasn’t available in my country unless I travelled 3 hours to a city that had one store that had the game, also was too expensive and no way I would’ve convinced parents to spend it on game. Shores of high sea are always at your doorstep.

At least for games, I check how big is the dev team, anything bigger than 30 then pirate Then I check if owner of the development studio is public company, if yes then pirate Then I check if owner owns more than one development studio, if yes then pirate Then I check how many games studio has released, if more than 10, pirate Then I check how many copies have been sold on steam, more than 1m, pirate

If a game dev team fails all above checks, I will still pirate first, but if i enjoy pirated copy, I’ll buy the game to support the dev.

Agreed, also the .part file can be played in VLC as well, it’s the same thing as copy pasting the link in VLC though, but this way you can keep the file.

To answer your question in short , is it safely possible? No.

From your replies it seems your ISP is active against piracy. If budget is tight I recommend, use seedr.cc it gives you 2gb free and it torrents on your behalf, so you’re legally safe. Also you can extend seedr.cc to 4gb as WELL without paying. Dm me if you want to know how.

I know it’s not enough for big games and stuff, but most TV shows and movies you can find decent 1080p rips within that.

Anything else will require some investment/cost.
