Speaking of thwarting piracy, how about Japan stops slaughtering whales and respecting the treaties they have signed first?

The 90s are calling, they want their UX back.
Funny, the Chinese internets say the same thing... About the Philippino ships.
mindustry. I've kinda quit playing games. But still play mindustry on my ipad. :)
It's quite good actually. Got into one last week in Thailand (during a Grab ride) and I was quite surprised by the quality/finish. It's on par with all the cheap city cars we have in Europe : Not high-end, basic but not badly made. Enjoyed the USB-C chargers for passengers in the back :P
But unavailable in many countries (especially developping ones).

Look up your printer model number on Alibaba. Or better yet, on Taobao (but if you don't speak Chinese it's a bit complicated). Your options depending on the printer you have are going to be :
- Print heads conversion kits (a replacement of the complete print heads module with tubes feed from ink bottles attached outside your printer)
- Refillable ink cartridges
- ~~Counterfeited~~ Compatible ink cartridges that cost a fraction of the official ones while having 10 times more ink in them.
Now depending on where you live and the local laws it may or may not be legal to import those. In the country I live in there is no law against it. In most South East Asia the law doesn't care about that and if it does, law enforcement doesn't. :)
Since I've moved in South East Asia, I have discovered that:
- Almost every single printer that exists has a conversion kit available on Taobao to use big ink bottles
- There's not a single firmware that hasn't been hacked, nor a single part that hasn't been cloned
- Therefore, most printer manufacturers have a specific line of durable products that allows the use of third party ink because if they don't, other people will bank of their product maintenance and they won't sell much.
The only reason we in developped country get scammed like we are, is because of IP laws and governments that allow manufacturers to abuse them with no consequences at the expense of the customers (and the planet).
It's almost 2024 and we still don't have any significant open source project for cloud storage privacy.

Same. i3wm first, or XFCE for a "real" DE.
I am currently running a debloated i3wm rig based on EndeavourOS/Arch and I really enjoy the low mental load of a truly minimal desktop. Only luxury I've allowed myself is CLI colors. I'm not ready for B&W yet.
