Sneakernet is getting worse and worse these days, I’m learning the ancient art of astroprojecting into random people’s rooms to consume media.

Seems like it, I switched to my current instance explicitly to avoid dealing with this stuff

Yep, since I mostly pirate obscure games I don’t need to worry about the VPN. Lutris works great for fitgirl-repacks

If you are understood buy you’re audience, you have spoken correctly. Correcting someone’s grammer is pointless

Me when I was trying to figure out what the outputs in the Javascripts RSA key generation crypto api curruspond to so I can link it to a rust api to prevent Man in the middle attacks occurring on https traffic with false certificates installed (I figured out eventually)

I was thinking about such a joke, the edit makes it much clearer

Nope, 402 is payment required

Hense why its a good idea to enable auto renewal or set a reminder

12 dollars? Just buy a .site doman from namecheep for $2 instead. You are guarantied to afford 6 times the normal level of hopes and dreams that way (/s for the second half, but this is what I do for my site)

Huh, it seems it depends on the existing sources, I’m not particularly sure how that works

From what I see, there are 4 5 options on annas-archive.org

1. Use fast(but fee charging) direct download

2. Use ipfs

3. use torrents

4. Go to source pages (libgen and/or zlibrary)

5. Slow direct download [Edited]

It sounds like you clicked the link to the source as opposed to the mirrors

No, more like a mirror in that it hosts all of zlib and libgen’s content as well as providing torrent and ipfs links for the files (which they seed)

Anna’s archive acts as a drop in replacement for libgen and z-library, also doesn’t cost anything

Nope, just means that you can’t make over 200,000 US yearly if it has over 200,000 downloads
