I don’t think that actually is a Free Software license, an open source license, or any kind of license for that matter, so much as a vague statement of intent

You don’t need to crack anything, pirate your ebooks (I’ve recently had good results from annas-archive.org for fiction books) and send them to kindle as personal documents.

Corporations are not people, no matter what the Supreme Court says.

Studios want to hire actors for a single day’s pay then use their image in whatever “AI” generated horrors they feel like forever

The only game journalist I trust is James Stephanie Sterling and Denuvo sure as shit isn’t sending them a copy

Laptop and Chromebook are two very different things. A laptop is sufficient for any use case that doesn’t demand GPU power, but if you’re ever considering buying a “gaming” laptop, don’t. You can get a cheap laptop and a decent gaming desktop for the same price and they’ll last you longer and run better.

Both the Maquis and the Bajoran Resistance are justified, it is always morally correct to attack fascists.

If you want to get really pedantic, none of the three completely different arthropods commonly called daddy longlegs are true bugs. True bugs are the order Hemiptera while crane flies are in Diptera and cellar spiders and harvestmen aren’t insects at all.

Also, Opiliones don’t produce silk and don’t make webs, but Pholcidae do.

the ! addressing allows you to post a link that anybody can click to get their instance’s version of the community link. So for example, !linux@lemmy.ml posted anywhere on lemmy becomes a link to https://lemmy.fmhy.ml/c/linux@lemmy.ml for me, but the exact same link is a link to https://aussie.zone/c/linux@lemmy.ml for you

Could also be https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opiliones?useskin=vector which aren’t spiders but still are arachnids and have 8 legs, or even https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crane_fly?useskin=vector which are not arachnids at all, but insects and have 6 legs.
