And yet, everybody will merely turn the other cheek.

So, there is value in labels after all?
- Comment on Backing up Spotify 5 days ago:
So, you do get benefits from Spotify, don’t you? Besides, there are other streaming services around that supposedly pay better - as you said. Anyway, all good to you, hope you succeed and Spotify dies one day.
- Comment on Backing up Spotify 5 days ago:
What is stopping them? But it seems that general consensus here is that artists would like you to listen for free and here and there buy something from them.
- Comment on Backing up Spotify 5 days ago:
It is really refreshing how this thread spins in “we know what’s best for the artists, certainly not paying for listening to their streams, that’s exactly what they want”. If you don’t want to use Spotify, that’s fine, I don’t want to either because they are an awful company. But that doesn’t make you the person who create the rules for artists nor does it give you the permission to listen to illegal content.
- Comment on Backing up Spotify 5 days ago:
right back atcha!
How so? You are the wiser what artists really wants - not being paid for listening to their music and would like you to listen to it for free. I merely follow what they offer and not trying to listen to it illegally.
- Comment on Backing up Spotify 6 days ago:
It might shock you, but content on YouTube gets paid. And illegal sources out there don’t make it more legal to share it. It’s funny though, you are basically saying what? Listen for free, middle finger to authors, and buy merchandise? As opposite to listen legally, authors get something and buy merchandise? But hey, I’m glad that you speak for authors.
- Comment on Backing up Spotify 6 days ago:
It’s not just Spotify, it content is free for all, then who is buying?
- Comment on Backing up Spotify 6 days ago:
How many buyers are there is entire archive is available for free? 10? 20?
- Comment on Backing up Spotify 6 days ago:
I don’t use Spotify, either. And do what you want to do, nobody is forcing your to put your music on Spotify.
- Comment on Backing up Spotify 6 days ago:
First, what am I using is beyond the point and I’m not using Spotify because of their payment method and their politics. And again, if albums are on streaming services, they are voluntarily there, are they not?
- Comment on Reading Berserk legally in EU 6 days ago:
Yeah, content not available in your country says google. I’d really prefer e-reading instead of (internationally) shipping and having a physical books.
- Comment on Backing up Spotify 6 days ago:
You underestimate people and their motivation to listen for free no matter what.
- Comment on Backing up Spotify 6 days ago:
Yes, sure, but if those don’t get paid, artists don’t get paid. And artists are not forced to pick a label, they are free to go solo, but they still prefer labels, so it’s not that black and white labels bad, artists good

So the artists get paid even less than from Spotify?
- Comment on Japan needs to possess nuclear weapons, prime minister's office source says 1 week ago:
Wait, now US will bomb Japan, right. Right?
- Comment on Reading Berserk legally in EU 1 week ago:
Because I believe that authors deserve a payment. I would if I was the author.
- Comment on Reading Berserk legally in EU 1 week ago:
Slovenia here, Berserk not available. Not surprisingly :( I guess buying from another country is not possible, is it? Stupid EU fragmentation.
- Comment on what do y'all use for CI/CD? 1 week ago:
I use cake build to create the build script and then I can run it from wherever.
- Comment on Reading Berserk legally in EU 1 week ago:
There is no store in the range of hundred kilometers that I know of, plus I prefer e-reading, don’t really want to hoard them. If it was available from library, it’d be another story.

- Comment on The USA and Europe are now enemies 1 week ago:
They provide the weapons so we can help them with imperialism. Also while Europe doesn’t (?) blindly support Israel, the second biggest genocide enabler comes from EU and third (probably) comes from ex-EU. Yes, there are some European countries that don’t blindly support Israel, but at the best they whine a bit about our concern.

It’s not that I don’t believe it, but we should check the material first hand. Always check the facts, don’t just trust the media!!!

Can confirm, I’m running 3x 4K monitors with Ryzen 9900X easily. I’m not into gaming, though.

This is so fucked up driven by MAGA equivalent, Christian church, very stupid people and too lazy to vote others.
