  • Yes, asking for every damn material on facebook group of the university academic year is not suitable in the long run. Yes, there is to be one guy on my year hosting all material for free but he stopped and everybody moved to facebook groups.

  • Nah, people got changed too. The younger generation is not interested in the technology that much otherwise then usage of it. Also even the older generation lost its interests because of getting older and family

  • That's always problem for any type of media. Including the tape which keep changing generations and only few recent are supported for reading. I still have blue ray reader / writer though

  • There is: mdiscs. Allegedly 1000 years durability even in Blu-ray format. Should be good enough for most important things. The best tapes AFAIK 30- 100 years

  • What are the ethics of Piracy?

    Jump

  • Hmm, it's strange grey area. Sometimes piracy is the only way to make the book not disappear. There are niche, low circulation books and magazines which without piracy would disappear and became almost unavailable.

    Sometimes the book is no longer in the print because of many reasons:

    1. Author changed her / his mind and no longer wishes to publish it, at least in the original edition / version.
    2. Copyrights are being taken over and the final copyright owner ceases to republish it even when paid.
    3. Copyrights owner doesn't know that his the owner of some books and it leads to the legal limbo.
    4. Low circulated books & magazines don't survive until the copyrights expire - owners of the books die and their next heirs believe the books / magazines are just garbage and burn it or throw it away.

    Ethics & piracy is pretty strange combination and there is no easy answer for it

  • Preferences are debatable and some people actually like that crap you don't. F.e. I never understood American hype on "superhero" movies. I'd sooner watch American wresting which may be more plausible than any modern superhero movie

    TIL over 500'000 German prisoners of war died in forced labour camps, after the German surrender, while detained in the Soviet Union. With the latest survivors only being released a decade later.

  • So show me the facts confirming murdering half a million people. Facts not lies. German POWs died not because of mass genocide action but because or harsh realities of Soviet gulags ( harsh living conditions, diseases and little food ).

    If that's what constitutes for you war crimes, even soviet prisoners would have to be called victims of war crimes.

    It's absurd of your terminology invention

  • You forget that Germans were allies of Soviet Union in the beginning. Yes, allies. Then the roles got reversed after they attacked Soviet union. It's hard to be surprised that the Soviet union reaction of treating them badly after the war knowing how they treated civilians in Soviet Union

    Still Germans died not of poisonous gas but the harsh realities of gulags. The same gulags were many eastern Europeans thrown into for nothing. Stil they weren't subjected of the nation wide "final solutions" which they wanted to enforce on Jews and Polish ( yes, they were to be killed in their final solution but on the second place )

    They started the war, they dealt with cruel people, they blame Poles about everything including the change of borders as if Poland didn't lose the eastern border.

    That's the Soviets who decided about the change of eastern lands of German, not Poles.

    Germans should know the meaning of the word "selbstschuld". Actions have consequences and when you start wars with superpowers, the consequences are very big.

    I see in recent years increase of German propaganda to portray themselves as prime victims in the ww ii on par with the Jews.

    Still it's the best class propaganda as "Polish Atrocities Against the German Minority in Poland" which have been proved by even German journalists to vastly fake

  • Oh, so when do you take to the court half of western Germany? Up to late 70s justice ministry officials were in 30% ex nazi party members. Not mentioning BND ( ex org Gehlen ) which was nazi organization run by nazi army officer.

    Did the Germans return robbed pieces of art? Did the Germans repay restitution to the victims of German nazi camps ( yes, German because first nazi camps were created in Germamy like in Dachau 1933, then in Austria )

    Did Germans repay for the victims of Intelligenzaktion ( killing action of Polish elite, educates people like doctors, academics, politicians and members of police and army )

    Did Germans repay for intentionally robbing and demolishing any industrial or even cities like Warsaw?

    Please let's talk seriously about war crimes

  • That's shitty times thar you have to use tools for pirating like torrent, Usenet to share big files . For smaller ones even email providers have bigger limits at least 15 megabytes

  • Yes, different generation. I didn't write OLD or ELDERLY. Yes, we grow older - accept it or not :-)

  • The user base has changed. Before it used to be used by young people willing to share their parts of lives, exchanging f.e. studying material Now it is used by mostly older people (over 30) having family not willing that much to share anything from their lives except from talking to their relatives over the messanger.

    So who creates the information today? I guess bots and sometimes some facebook groups but I noticed that facebook shares your group posts to absolutely not related people to that group.

    Including your mum and sister, the posts related on smoking weed and going to techno parties.

    Young people (Gen-Z) don't use facebook pretty much at all. Sometimes maybe messanger because of their family
