Yeah, they totally should, but this is Elon Musk we're talking about, unfortunately :/

Is that so? I thought it was a more significant source. But isn't it technically correct, though? I'm not American, but Wikipedia says it was established by the Public Broadcasting Act of 1967.

Serious question: What's wrong with NPR being labeled as "US-supported media"? Isn't it funded by the US federal government?

What about the about:profiles page?

Rutracker has a lot of ISO rips, maybe start there?

I mean, you could just block OpenAI's crawlers' IP addresses, if you wanted to

As a frequent Discogs user, this new fee change is so infuriating. I'm sure these changes aren't as big for US or EU-based buyers, but the shipping fees I get in Singapore were very large even before this change, usually 2 or 3 times the cost of the item itself. Nowadays, there are some sellers who flat out refuse to sell items to me, specifically because of the fees. And this is just with CDs and cassettes, which have smaller shipping costs than a 12" record...

The problem is, I don't really have any choice for getting used music. eBay has limited stock and even crazier shipping rates, especially if you want a specific edition of an album. I've heard talk of some sellers moving to Etsy, but if they have, they're not showing up. And the few physical stores left here mostly carry stock in mainstream albums. So I mostly have to suck it up if I want a rare album, and pay the exorbitant costs :/

God I hope not - the prices for used records are insane. I can usually buy 2 or 3 mint CDs for the price of 1 "Very Good" (i.e full of pops and scratches) vinyl

Oh no, you're all good, it's just that this may not work for new people trying this soon. If you activated already, then it should stick until you change your computer's motherboard

That would be cool, if we still installed Windows from CDs and DVDs. But last time I installed Windows 10, it took 2-3 minutes to finish (excluding the OOBE prompts), so it's not very helpful...

Wow, do you need to have your apps signed by Microsoft now, like macOS's Gatekeeper makes you do?

Good to see them fix this so quickly, but what's stopping Microsoft from blocking HWID activations on a GVLK? After all, those keys would normally be activated through a KMS instead of Microsoft, so it's clearly abnormal behaviour
