Bandcamp, even though it’s ownership is questionable at this point, still has Bandcamp Fridays where the artist gets 100% of the sale, and they let you download DRM-free high quality FLAC files.
This is for all those who don’t like this, and want to demand DRM-free files.
sometimes, especially with niche artists, there aren’t that many high quality flacs out there in the first place
I will never forgive Microsoft for just straight up deleting everyone’s (mine) MineCraft purchases and accounts, and then having the gall to tell us to buy it again. It’s still in my Microsoft Store purchase history, for Christ’s sake.
I’d sooner buy Skyrim 4 more times than buy back what was stolen from me.

I chose to pirate Minecraft back when Notch was charging $20 CAD for a game in which the health bar didn’t work, and I’ve been nothing but validated by every decision around the game since.
Just gonna leave that here:

Syncs and deDRMs your Audible library in a configurable interval. Also works headless on your server

Fuck yeah Randall is based af.
Of course it’s real. This is maybe one of the least shocking beliefs from a webcomic like xkcd ever. Like 1/5 of all the comics are about hacker culture or Linux.
Okay but programing or Unix jokes are whole different cake than openly admitting piracy unless you’re Meta.
