Scene doesn’t use Usenet, they uses their own top sites, the reason files are small is because FTP has its limits, files can be corrupted if something breaks in the download so they keep it small. There are also couriers that get files from one top site to another using scripts and it benefits them as they don’t hog leech slots

They’re about to turn AI into a scapegoat for why kids are stupid and blame everything on it, as if before AI our education system was perfect.

The old guard of the internet slowly retiring and leaving the new generation to take over will be such a mess in the nearby future. In the 90s-2000s a lot of sysadmins learned their skillsets by getting their hands dirty, sometimes even building ISPs from nothing.

If you’re forced to live in Israel you won’t be publicly voicing your opinions if they’re against the norm. One of the worst insults is “deserter” for those that did not wish to serve and “leftist” if you go against the murder of innocent people.

Those you will find on foreign TV channels, 10-20 years from now after those who are currently serving finish their mandatory service and immigrate elsewhere. Every once in a while some event happens which becomes difficult to cover up. Like the Pilot Letters from 2003 and 2023, but it is the exception rather then the norm.

Sure, but you can’t be tracked via css so it’s okay in my book. Have fun with your whacky css sites.

I can get behind no JS club, I can’t get behind no CSS club.

CSS is 🆒

I’m not a big financial expert and I haven’t read the article but the answer is most likely: the pay is shit.

This 240TB JBOD full of books? Oh heavens forbid, we didn’t pirate it. It uhh… fell of a truck, yes, fell off a truck.
