Debian strongly recommends against adding repos from other distributions or other versions of Debian: wiki.debian.org/DontBreakDebia… Doing that can easily break your system. They also recommend against adding repos for specific software packages (e.g. for LibreWolf), but this is generally less problematic.
Personally, on Debian, I try to get packages in this order:
1. From the official Debian packages
2. From Flatpak
3. Pre-built binaries (I put them in my home, not in /usr/bin)
4. Build from source (I also put those in my home)

I've written a python/Qt script that keeps lists like those you mention. It's sort of a poor-man's database manager, but its only database is a collection of csv files.
- You can use an address list to keep track of contacts' phone numbers, mailing addresses, and eMail addresses.
- You can use a calendar to remind you about events and appointments including date, time, and duration. You can add notes about finding the location and other prerequisites to attendance.
- You can keep separate passwords in a password list for every website you visit and every piece of gear you own.
- You can keep links to favorite websites in a bookmark list.
When I try to include a direct link to my python script, which does that, my responses and in fact the whole posted discussion are taken down. … something to do with self promotion of untested software I suppose. But you can find it in the Cheese Shop (See Wikipedia “Python Package Index.”) under tonto2.

Wouldn't china be heading for a similar bubble pop like the US with there huge investment into ai?
Or perhaps they have actually found a large enough market to cover the cost of development.

in reply to Egonallanon • • •I think it's in part because of NAT. Less and less people have a real IP address, so they can't share the torrents to others, and most VPNs don't provide an upload port either.
The tracker websites are also increasingly hostile with malicious ads, so those with ineffective ad blockers can't use them.

People have been sharing things in storage drives for decades. Fmhy has a list of some big ones, usually for books.
Traditionally i believe these were not advertised and more underground, a way to easily share with friends.
You didn’t really want them easily found and traceable to you though but that is what changed.
Piracy has become so normalised that people take it for granted that there are no legal risks involved. Normalising piracy is the first step for the ideals of software freedom to flourish.
After all what is a digital file if not a bunch of writing that instructs the computer to draw pixels on your screen. You wouldn’t copyright the words to ask a human to make a drawing about a copyrighted something, so why do it for a computer?

"Child pornography is just a really big number, after all."
"I didn't murder anyone, I just rearranged some atoms. We're all just really big collections of atoms after all."
If you remove enough semantic layers, you can make anything sound benign.
I'm not anti-piracy, I just think these lines of argumentation are so flimsy as to be entirely worthless for the cause.

in reply to LiamBox • • •This has been a thing for years although it used to be sketchy blogs (and probably still is tbf in addition to this). Back in the days of rapid share, mega before Kim dotcom got busted, etc. some people just can’t figure out torrents or they live in a situation where torrents can’t be used (isp shaping, internet controlled by a 3rd party that blocks torrenting, etc) and usually http downloads are fine in those situations.
If you ever have to rely on this get jdownloader at least

in reply to m4a • • •Mega used to be called MegaUpload and it was just plain ol’ cloud storage. US media companies coordinated with the NZ government and apprehended Kim Dotcom in NZ and shut down MegaUpload. Dotcom had money and lots of lawyers, so he’s staved off being entirely destroyed and formed Mega, which is E2EE and so he cannot accept any liability because they cannot know what is being stored.

Usenet is basically cloud storage as in it's a server hosting it instead of peers. The advantage being speed. (Oversimplified)
