A free ,as in non DRM, digital copy is the best from a customers perspective. It's after all what you get after ripping your discs.
Physical media can also have DRM, just because we were able to break DVD, BR etc does not mean we are always going to be able to do so. Nor is DRM on physical media inherently weaker than on digital files, quite the opposite. If they got it right you could be unable to resell the disc afterwards, or more precisely the guy you sold it too could not use it.
Well, there are some arguments pro buying cheaper phones.
You have the option to upgrade, you are not obliged. Even if you finance the more expensive phone you are still committed for more. You have more options.
Batteries do naturally degrade over time. No matter how expensive or good your phone is.
Accidents happen some will not be covered by warranty but I also do not see more expensive phones having more than 2 years warranty which is the minimum.
If you do chose to upgrade you have more phones, that means a backup or a free phone for a member of your family.
Deluged on my 24/7 running box and the gtk client to connect to it from my main PC.
I mean I was a Nintendo fanboy when I was young. I have a switch now and owned N64, GC, Wii. Me and my RL friends lamented not being able to pirate. Sure there are people online that are anti piracy but I think they are actually a vocal minority.
Them and people profiting from copyright are the remaining percentage.
Why is this news, 99,9% of society says piracy is ok? Has anybody in your life ever reproved you for saying you downloaded a movie, game etc?
Lemmy itself. What the instances (lemmy.ml , lemmy.world etc) run. It's not something users can update to.
There's this thing called fair use .
The usage is clearly limited as can be determined by size of trained materials versus size of models. I would argue the use is transformative enough, after all you got from text/image inputs to effectively a tool that can produce texts and images.
It's in his apartment. Unmanaged switches and/or WiFi.
