This isn't piracy since you are legitimately-ish getting stuff but:
If you are actually in the US, check out your local community colleges. Depending on the college (and state), that may range from free to "you only need to sell a kidney once every four years".
A scumbag cousin of mine has been doing that for probably coming on 20 years now. He signs up for a course every other year, never attends it, and then drops it. Keeps his dot edu email active for "free" software and I think he also flips laptops and the like.
That said, also consider actually attending the course. One night a week to learn a new skill or just keep the (questionable science of) neuroplasticity going.
Yeah man free tafe in Aus has been a loophole for discounted public transport for like a decade lmao
