Historically, Big Autos and Big Oil/Big Fossil combined. Most recently with their AI datacenters sucking up all the water and also being powered by Big Oil/Big Fossil, Big Tech.

In fact, Big Autos, Big Oil, and Big Tech are tied for this one.

    Basic, offline CCTV systems for starters, but those require effort to set up and may not be feasible if you're renting your place as they require setting up cable runs.

    I wouldn't trust them to be long for the world, that and IMO they're legally dubious.

    Just use one of the established alternatives like GIMP/Krita, RawTherapee/Darktable, Inkscape, etc.

    One may not have the hardware on hand to self-host for the more demanding stuff like video hosting ala PeerTube or OwnCast. Like, you could host a static blog on an ancient PC using the LGA775 or AM2 socket, but something like PeerTube or OwnCast would ideally need something with graphics that can encode modern video codecs.

    So, MagiPack was banned from IA and won't be returning. It was fun while it lasted guys, time to find a new repack source.

    (Edit) Don't host your own stuff even if you stand a viable chance of getting banned by whoever you're hosting on if you use someone else to host on. Also, do not host on IA given that would put that site at risk of getting taken down entirely.

     

    So, OS-level age-gating is going federal, which will effectively kill your rights to device ownership and what's left of free speech and expression.

    Enjoy your free speech while you still have it because this is a clear attempt to erase that right.

    SOPA never died, it just went into hiding until time to reemerge, and now's that time, this is basically SOPA in a save the kids trenchcoat.
