If you’d like to support archival in general, consider donating to https://archive.org/ . They regularly archive books and media that can be potentially banned. It doesn’t hurt to download parts of the archive on your machine if you want to be extra sure, but keep in mind the internet archive is massive with petabytes of data.
462k are the people that have created an account, Lemmy actually has ~40k active users (and even then “active” just means they logged in once this month). I do share the sentiment that not everything has to be super popular but Lemmy really could use more people.
I remember the series on Newgrounds, it’s a fun time.
RIP Edd. Gone way too soon.
Not a lawyer so I can’t give you a straight answer, but I’m pretty sure it’s not. So many AAA games just copy-paste UI layouts, just look at how many of them have the Destiny-style inventory menu and generic RPG skill tree. As long as it’s not too blatant or uses their original assets, you can get away with copying anything.
The Llama 3.1 models are probably the best all-rounders, with the Llama 3.1 8B version being the most popular.
Wanting to stay alive is not a “relentless lust to make an extra buck”. You’re portraying people wanting to earn money as villains trying to abuse you. Putting ads in a website where someone puts so much effort to create is NOT evil. Youtubers without sponsorships for example simply wouldn’t exist, because nobody would put in dozens of hours of work a week if it wasn’t lucrative.
The concept of “every sharing of information must be financially profitable” is a sickness - a festering disease.
I would argue the concept of expecting everyone else’s hard work to be free is selfish. I’m not talking about major publications that have millions of dollars, I’m talking about small websites where the creator needs it to succeed or else it shuts down a year later.
How many people get paid to go to ham radio clubs, to write up plans for model airplanes, or to share telescope mirror polishing techniques? How many people try to profit off of community seed/plant exchanges?
What you’re describing is a hobby that people with free time and extra money do. This isn’t what 99.9% of content creators work on or have the capability of doing.
So you think people should just work around the clock making content and not get anything for it? I keep seeing this view and it sounds so naive, you can’t expect donations to keep you afloat. Even hosting the website and domain names cost money.
Personally I never reached a point where I had to use any kind of storage software. All you need is a good external storage and a little bit of organization.
If anyone is serious about data storage I would honestly choose external SSDs or an enclosure that supports SSDs. I’ve had terrible experiences with hard drives failing over the years or clicking and corrupting my data.
I don’t know if there’s a source specifically for this but when I often get stuck and start repeating myself I look up Merriam Webster’s thesaurus and start replacing boring words with better ones.
So rather than say something like awesome I’d say a word like marvelous, lovely, etc.

That’s called an intranet (which is like the internet but for a building or small area).
The internet isn’t really anything more than computers connected to other computers. If you want to make your own internet you can connect two computers whether wired or wireless, and voila. You can host a website locally that only those two computers can access.

How does this compare to Revolt?
Well yeah, the line has to be drawn somewhere, but it’s still super high budget compared to any animated series out there. They spent roughly 10 million dollars per episode! High budget anime would usually spend something like 1 million dollars per season. One punch man season 1 reportedly spent $80k per episode. The difference is massive.
Arcane by far. Gorgeous art style, great colors and composition, great fights. It’s going to be hard to beat it considering how huge the budget was.
AFAIK web scraping (the act of grabbing and downloading any data you see available on the internet) isn’t illegal, and I would assume downloading PDFs provided to you online would fall under that. Since it is copyrighted it would probably be illegal to share it, though.
It would have been good if they didn’t lie so much about what you can do with it and fail spectacularly
I’m for making a megathread for people who really want to talk about it here but I genuinely don’t understand why you’re upset you can’t talk about US politics everywhere in the platform. There are tons of communities for that. AskLemmy is for
Instead, most US related posts are for venting and complaining. See these communities instead:

And dozens of similar communities on other instances. It’s not censorship to ask you to go to use the proper channels, not everyone here wants to see US news everywhere.
