Anytime you're reduced to arguing semantics, it's not even an argument worth engaging in. So I'm not going to bother responding further to you.

When you look up their history, it's pretty wild. The former owner was a conservative that was pardoned by Trump for embezzling millions of dollars from his company. And the current editor was involved in far-right politics before taking his position, which explains why they source some of their content from the New York Post. Not to be outdone, the current owner was investigated by police for allegedly giving Netanyahu positive coverage in exchange for legislation that would hurt a rival newspaper.

Idk about you guys, but I'm willing to take Israeli state media at face value every day.

I mean, this is the paper owned by the guy who was investigated by police for giving positive coverage to Netanyahu in exchange for legislation that would hurt a rival newspaper. They seem very trustworthy to me.

This is more than a little off-topic, but that man is wearing two watches.

As long as you keep seeding torrents indefinitely, you're contributing by keeping those torrents alive. That's a huge benefit to the community, and it's why you can get upload credit even if you aren't uploading.

And the fact that ebooks take almost no space means you can indefinitely seed thousands of books even if it's from a small hard drive.

So don't feel useless. In fact, I want to thank you for helping out.

That's an unfinished nature bridge.

Market share doesn't indicate something is better, though. Soviet cold war technology has the market share in Europe, but as we've seen in Ukraine, it doesn't hold a candle to more modern weapons. Which isn't an argument saying iPhones are crap, I'm just saying market share isn't how you decide if something is better.

Knocking things around in orbit is a terrible idea that only adds to the current near crisis we have with space junk. So yes, it would be a real shame if something messed with the orbit of any satellite, one that could cost hundreds of millions in damages or even loss of life.

The cool thing about that is that you can use it on iOS simply by visiting the Audiobookshelf instance directly on the web. So technically, it's available on every platform that has some kind of browser.

This isn't even the first time this has happened to a Tesla, at this point this particular problem is just expected.
