  • More of a generic answer as I don’t know the situation there, so hopefully someone local will come around and chime in.

    Unfortunately we live in a world where it doesn’t take much money for the movie/music industry corporations to sway the politicians in any country.

    So what may be legal today, could very well not be a week, month or year from now and you’d want to stay on top of news like that.

    As a general rule of thumb, I’d suggest using a solid VPN, if you’re uncertain about the consequences. I switched Mullvad (would I recommend it? Sure, but only if you’re ready to actually pay for it) and used to use Nordvpn (it’s ok, seems to have become bloated, but sometimes with cashback deals it’s essentially free) and there are plenty more out there depending on your level of comfort in quality of service they actually provide.

    Now if someone can confirm what the situation is actually like, it could be anything from “I’m gonna need a n-th NAS with xxx TB capacity to seed all this” through “oh no, another email from my ISP, I need to setup a filter to send these to trash directly” to “who’s that knocking on my door at this time of the day”. In the end it all comes down to your appetite for risk.





  • Introduce say…shall we call it CHIPS and Sciences Act 2 (milk that sequel).

    More jobs in the semiconductor industry, microchips for everyone in the country to track them because everyone is evil, especially those darn foreigners.
    Except you know it’s none of that and it hides healthcare for everyone instead, and no politician would ever know because like why the fuck would actually read something and those who do, well I’m sure they’d understand the purpose.


  • Alrighty then, just need to wait for fucking novideo stock to get back to what I bought it at and I’ll dump and switch (don’t have anything spare to play around with sadly)

    I hear you though, I also had(have?) similar physical effect on things like toys as a kid or some electronics since then…just brake shit randomly without trying, especially if I don’t own it.
