I would also never let corporate IT manage a device, e. g. a laptop connected to my private network at home.
If you ever must, buy a new laptop. And use it on a guest wifi network.

I mean I’m sure some ace people like to engage in sexual activity. Sexual attraction and libido are different.
- Comment on Scrollbars are becoming a problem 1 week ago:
This. And it doesn’t only apply to companies. I have a personal blog with a couple accessibility issues that I haven’t bothered to fix because I’ve built a lot of my CSS around my bad HTML. Part of the issue is that I built my site as a school project for a web design class I was taking, so code quality wasn’t great. One day I might redesign it better, but I don’t have the energy for now.

Do you share music on p2p services or do you just have a personal collection? The reason people don’t like seperate artist folder is because when sharing the folder it won’t include the artist name.

Having Artist as a seperate folder is wild.

I organize them into
Source (Bandcamp, Deezer, etc) --> Artist - Album --> Files

I’m sure some digital piracy involves stealing. Someone has to have taken some floppy disk software from a store and walked out without paying for it

I really don’t understand the point of a McD’s app anyways. They have a drive thru

- Comment on After announcing increased prices, Spotify to Pay Songwriters About $150 Million Less Next Year 1 month ago:
Not really rapid. They were acquired, but I haven’t noticed anything happen yet at all in my entire time using Bandcamp that would be “enshittification”
- Comment on After announcing increased prices, Spotify to Pay Songwriters About $150 Million Less Next Year 1 month ago:
They were talking about how each publisher was making their own streaming service as if the solution would be to have them all under one roof aka a monopoly.

So you’d rather a monopoly?

There is also so much great music being put out for free.
- Comment on After announcing increased prices, Spotify to Pay Songwriters About $150 Million Less Next Year 1 month ago:
On Bandcamp Friday they take no cut at all. All money goes to artist after payment processor fees. isitbandcampfriday.com
- Comment on After announcing increased prices, Spotify to Pay Songwriters About $150 Million Less Next Year 1 month ago:
I’m glad we have this, instead of a “different Spotify per music publisher”.
What would be wrong with a model where artists had their own website where they could distribute their music? That’s what Faircamp does. Then people could actually download it, rather than use a companies crappy client with DRM.

No lol, you just buy the copyright to the image. There is nothing crypto here, just a way for artists to get money and people actually get something in return for their payment.
