Reposting as top level comment also: these are PWDIS drives: if you’re not using them somewhere with sata 3.2/3.3, you need to use an adapter for the power plug, or some tape, to block pins 1-3 (3.3v) as supplying it to these causes them to reset. Might be worth doing the taping anyway, if you’re using an enclosure or cage (where you can’t use the adapters) Just be aware.

Context is important, I can see why you're not including it and are trying to color it by explaining instead of linking.

They literally told you not to engage in moderation discussions after you did once, and you followed that up by tripling down and attacking the mods directly. Ban justified.

Then, (you even admit so) you "jump in" (a 6 month necro) and do it again,, bashing mods and the forum and the product, and discussing your moderation again, all in one post. 2nd ban justified.

They do mention that you have done the shipping thing, which is now hearsay from both sides to us users, and is immaterial to the other bannable offenses honestly.

I message the mods on Reddit every now and then, reminding them of the utterly crazy way they've been treating me

Muting justified.

Edit: found your reddit, with lots of posts in /r/Hungary, where framework doesn't ship, implying a rather large possibility there was "freight forwarding" in some manner in your case. Not to mention your literal "PSA" thread about freight forwarding, in which you "disclaim" it isn't about that and if we think so we're imagining it...

And I love how it's the opposite of other console approaches.

Everyone else: "let's rope some devs into exclusives, and make some more in house, that'll lock them in!"

Valve: "let's develop improvements to OSS publicly, so it runs better on PC for everyone (and our product)"

Internet-routed media transfers, bypassing some (very) shitty filtering done by carriers. Most will compress and downscale any media sent via MMS. A friend didn't have RCS until recently, and I always had to remember to send links and not actual pictures because they would always recieve unreadable garbage if I let the carrier transfer it. But really, ANY other messaging app solves this.. Signal, Telegram, Discord, even Steam Chat will blow the pants off MMS.

can I 3d print PETG objects, use them, put them in the dishwasher, and then safely reuse them?

No.

Free speech is important in public spaces. Online, for the most part, isn't public, it's a network of privately owned systems... You're on someone else's computer, they can do whatever they want with the data you put there. Debate isn't permitted there if they say so (and did in this case) and you agreed to that so they would allow you access to their system. Whether it was "annoying" or not is immaterial. You broke the rules you agreed to. That's it really. You can talk about this literally anywhere but their systems.

I harbor no hate at all, just providing context for your disingenuously framed post. You are definitely a radically problematic case, considering your posts. I don't care what you discuss, but the owners of these systems do.

If I ran a forum, I would definitely want the ability to remove people from my system that are harassing others, by my definition, regardless of what yours may be.

The Spanish Fly

Yes

I prefer appimages, it feels much more "open" than flatpak ever will.

Flatpak: install flatpost and flatseal.

Appimage: Download appimaged appimage to ~\Applications and run once.

then

Flatpak: Go to site for cool software I heard of, see it's flatpak with a link on the page. Click link, wait for flatpost to open, wait for flatpost to update repos, get cool software and possibly another copy of mesa and gnome compat stuff, then head to flatseal to fix drive/device permissions as needed.

Appimage: Go to site for cool software I heard of, see it's an appimage, download said appimage to ~\Applications, appimaged automatically loads in a desktop entry and we're done.

As far as updates, all the appimages that are in active development that I use, offer auto-updating when I open them, plus I'm not reliant on a centrally-controlled repo of the packages (which if it dies, takes all updates with it).

I feel appimage would be an easier adoption for people fresh to linux, as it follows the same model as windows or macos (download executable, install app), even for the initial setup of appimaged.

And either way, there's no "winner" here, if we're playing that game, native installs still win. Every distro supports (and uses) those by default, except for ubuntu, who has money on pushing snaps.

The kicker to this sort of thing, is the pirated versions usually have the checks removed... and don't need internet.

For Android: learn the hard reset combo for your phone, especially if you encrypt it.

After rebooting, pattern/PIN will be required to decrypt the phone. Biometrics won't work for this step. This is what graphene does for security, tries to keep the phone in a "before first unlock" state by rebooting on a timer. You can't even read anything over USB/ADB, it's scrambled until you unlock the phone.

The only drawback to just keeping your phone in this state is none of your apps are loaded, so no notifications/updates/processing at all.

Nintendo went after a emu dev team that was actively (and demonstratively) enabling piracy for something they are currently selling. On top of that, the dev team is making significant money off of that work, to the tune of 30k/mo. Every other dev is probably thinking "finally, the other shoe drops on this obvious outcome", most avoid making money off it, and also avoid current systems, both for just this reason. The relieving part is Nintendo's argument isn't about the emulator specifically, there's nothing in the injunction stopping yuzu from continuing, and a settlement means no legal precedent.

Edit: Read more, the settlement includes stopping development.

You got banned.

To answer your actual question, looking at your history, hours to days.

I'd really like to understand this in a different light than I currently see it in..

1. People post stuff made by other sites on facebook, sometimes even the creators of the stuff. Facebook never posts these things on their own. Facebook makes money on ads on it's site, this covers hosting, employees, coding...

2. People read stuff on Facebook, instead of creator's site, and don't view creator's ads.

3. Creators want compensation, legislation forces it from Facebook.

4. Facebook disallows OTHERS from posting the stuff, so that they aren't liable to creators for what those people (who are sometimes the same creators complaining) are doing. (Duh?)

5. The creators, now unpaid and standing to earn, posts this negatively everywhere and amplifies it on their platforms.

6. Canada is pissed?

Obviously if clicking through is desired, legislate that they can only show the link and title. Forcing companies to pay for what users post... Very obviously would end up with disallowed posting.

Only one I know is materialize.is

I'm still trying to find a way to get an invite...

Check around your local walmart/target/walgreens etc, that have those photo labs/booths. Some have proper bulk photo scanners publicly available, and will (or you can) pass your photos through one and spit out a CD for fairly cheap (sub-$10 last I checked, but years ago).

2nd catch, behind the power on time: PWDIS drives: if you're not using them somewhere with sata 3.2/3.3, you need to use an adapter for the power plug, or some tape, to block pins 1-3 (3.3v) as supplying it to these causes them to reset. Might be worth doing the taping anyway, if you're using an enclosure or cage (where you can't use the adapters)

I agree that everyone should stop using windows 10 this year.

Nobara for gamers, Mint for everyone else. Done and done.

That stuff is super public?

Seems like a bunch of cut-and-dry violations.

AFAIK materialize.is is still active, but you need an invite, and I am not "in", as it were, though I would like to be.
