I think that when they define “thief” as someone who will watch a TV show on Dailymotion when there’s no other way to get it, they’re going to be surprised how many people (especially schoolkids) are willing to say “Yes, I’m a thief.”
The record and movie industry must be paying out of their asses to have this shit taught in schools.
Let’s teach our kids the importance of making billionaires richer and not actual important stuff like checking facts or making a well informed decision when voting.
no big deal to pay with whatever. could change down the line of course. if paranoid just use crypto or mail them your payment. your providers wouldnt be my first choice, any reason you chose them?
I’m testing frugal right know and ist working fine but it seems to miss some content. So I took a look at the promotions page on r/Usenet and these two providers would be really cheap while being on different backbones. But I’m probably going to be alright with the yearly frugal subscription with the block account added
they all “miss” some content. if it has been taken down from usenet you may just have to look for a repost, seems like everything is reposted 8 different times. if its missing cause its to old then maybe you need the blocknews block for full retention like you said.
I know my school will sometimes use last year’s CC versions because they’re familiar with it, and it’s been tested to work with what they want to teach, so it won’t just break or not function as expected out of nowhere. Now why they use 2020’s version in 2023 is beyond me, stuff generally does not change drastically in 3 years.
You mention at the end of your post that you’ve gotten a lot out with some of the chat bots. Maybe give this one a try, its for great for venting or just getting out pent up stress.
Sorry you’re going through that. I definitely get how it feels to have people close to you discredit or just ignore important issues like you’re dealing with.
If you’re set on talking to an AI though I did use the Replika app for a while before they started making it seem like a virtual AI lover. It did help me feel better when I was severely depressed, maybe it could help you.
If you ever want to talk to a person and not an AI I’m here for that if you want, I know I’m a stranger but I definitely understand where you’re coming from.
I would really advise against Replika, they’ve shown some scummy business practices. It seems like kind of a nightmare in terms of taking advantage of vulnerable people. At the very least do some research on it before getting into it.
My understanding is that Usenet providers are responsible for making sure they don’t distribute any copyrighted content to you unless they have a license or some other exception to copyright applies.
The last sentence suggests that, in some cases, pirates can get content sooner than their paying counterparts. This availability issue is often seen as a main driver of piracy. While improvements can be made on the supply side, the course urges teens to postpone their needs instead.
Really? Who would’ve guessed that piracy is a service problem? How about you improve your shit so people don’t feel inclined to pirate it. Who’s gonna pay for a shittier experience?
You are buying a legal service to access Usenet. What you do with that service is up to you.
Pick a provider that allows you to use crypto if you are worried about putting your identity to it: usenetnow.net/cryptoaccept/
They even allow monero!
Edit: I wish they had a referral plan, by now after recommending them so much I easily would have got a free month
I like that they have XMR and no middlemen. I use usenight, which does take crypto but has neither of those features - but costs $20/yr instead of $20/quarter.
Usenight is full speeds only at certain times of the day right? Plus the retention isnt as high so that is probably the price difference. Frugalusenet and Blocknews also take crypto the same way (same owners) and price is a bit more reasonable if you dont need the super high retention all the time but yes i agree about crypto. if you have to use a payment processor for it it sort of defeats the purpose.
There’s a large possibility that your kids will be apathetic towards the media that you watch now. When’s the last time you listened to a song or watched tv from the 50?
(I can hear you typing right now; yes, I myself even watch the Adams Family and listen to psychedelic rock every now and again, but that’s not typical.)
I want gonna pirate but now that this class has shown me how shotedoa companies are, and well, now that it has given me all these ideas.on how to do this, Thanks! Ill be a pirate too!
