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.
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.
A Chromebook is just walled garden bullshit.

Games are free on PC, or at least very cheap if you insist on actually purchasing them
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
The matrix is capitalism and being cis
I tend to binge through books. I just finished Andy Weir’s Artemis and Project Hail Mary in about one night each.
Which means the things I’m in the middle of tend to be web serials since I can’t just rush through. I’ve got dozens of tabs of royalroad open in my phone’s browser. Everything by Ravensdagger is good, and I’ve been enjoying Return of the Runebound Professor and Let’s Not Obliterate, and awaiting the scheduled return from hiatus of Ends of Magic on Monday.
Rimworld, KSP1, Stellaris
A couple more recommendations, then, both isekai. That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime is great and wholesome kingdom building, but all of the character designs are very horny.
The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady is a charming lesbian love story with magitech. The titular characters are both 17.
A recipe for frequent civil wars
So it goes
I still don’t see it. Bookworm is the most wholesome and least sexualized isekai I can think of.
Wait, you took issue with Ascendance of a Bookworm but not Rising of the Incel Hero?
From the 1998 paper titled “The Anatomy of a Large-Scale Hypertextual Web Search Engine” by Sergey Brin and Lawrence Page:
Currently, the predominant business model for commercial search engines is advertising. The goals of the advertising business model do not always correspond to providing quality search to users. For example, in our prototype search engine one of the top results for cellular phone is “The Effect of Cellular Phone Use Upon Driver Attention”, a study which explains in great detail the distractions and risk associated with conversing on a cell phone while driving. This search result came up first because of its high importance as judged by the PageRank algorithm, an approximation of citation importance on the web [Page, 98]. It is clear that a search engine which was taking money for showing cellular phone ads would have difficulty justifying the page that our system returned to its paying advertisers. For this type of reason and historical experience with other media [Bagdikian 83], we expect that advertising funded search engines will be inherently biased towards the advertisers and away from the needs of the consumers.
Yeah there’s a pretty fundamental conflict of interest in an advertising company controlling most of the world’s browsers.
This means you need to use Firefox, Chrome is crippling adblockers.
That soon? Nice, I’ve been waiting.
