The Animorphs series is partly based on co-author Michael Grant's experiences as a cat burglar, which is why Rachel is morphing a cheetah here.

That's interesting. Less than one minute after posting this, you said you used Brave.

Not just one tournament but the organization in charge of international chess in general, including world championships and so on.

VPN is fine on its own if it is configured correctly. There are websites that will test your traffic to check and you should use one before seeding on a public tracker for the first time. A common mistake is a DNS leak.

For the past 5 years i just check server hunter and get the specs I want: https://www.serverhunter.com

Before that, my preferred 'everyone else' was OVH.

Hetzner is one of the most cost effective but I recommend always checking serverhunter before choosing

Most people will have to learn the hard way when their own ideas are sold cheaper elsewhere until they understand that it is better to support the original and the actual creator

Or they won't learn because the number of people who create the type of media that a corporation would want to steal is ultimately very few and those people can merely be talked over. There is absolutely no reason to believe that information is both available and timely.

The current system we have is harmful to small creators. I release a lot of music under a pay-whatever model (almost all of it actually), but I would hate to be forced to do that. Five or ten years is reasonable, and there should be no such thing as "criminal" copyright infringement -- it should be a tort only. I think that's a fairly reasonable, even libertarian, compromise that doesn't head too far into idealism. I really need to be paid for my work, y'see. Or paid for no reason, that's fine too.

 

This is this a 4channel amiga .mod file. The game devs wrote a software mixer in order to get a Mega Drive to play it back instead of using the FM channels like humans.
