I have not. Is it worth watching?
I am personally familiar with that kind of pirate and I definitely appreciate what they do.
Maybe I should cross-post to AskHistory? I'm not looking for anything specific, really more hoping to learn some things while giving Lemmy users a chance to dump info they find interesting.
I will watch all of these. Thanks!
How much evidence do we have for this? I want to believe it since it's my favorite fact so far, which means I should be extra cautious before believing it.
I loved the show, but never would have guessed it was based on reality. Great facts!
Making your own meaning is Existentialism talk! Embrace the lack of meaning!
I looked around the house but couldn't find it. You sure it's not in your backpack OP?
Mine weren't either. Unbearably miserable for everyone until they got divorced, then it was just regular miserable. Would not recommend.
Most importantly, since there are infinite other options in-between that are just as likely as God existing, some can have negative reward values if you choose "worship God anyway". It is just as likely that there is a vengeful Anti-God that will torture you for eternity if you worship the Abrahamic God, which would completely negate the rewards from the original wager.
It was definitely considered piracy by the public at the time. Everyone I knew called it a "legal grey area", but as far as I know it was legally permissable.
The media companies tried their hardest to make it sound like you were destroying the entire industry and you'd go to jail for life as soon as they caught you.
What makes me mad is the boomers I watched copy rentals and NFL games are the same ones telling me I'm stealing by using an ad blocker.
It gets worse if you use Microsoft D365 AX products. Then you have to provision an entire Build server for builds which has to run Visual Studio 2019 on Windows 10. To do a build you run a pipeline in Azure DevOps, which runs the compiler in a full Visual Studio 2019 environment, which has to run on a special Azure virtual environment running Windows 10 hosted by Microsoft. It's so fragile.
