I find that hard to believe.
- rolph 7y agothere is a lot of free open source ware and shareware was a big thing, never paid for windows its always been on a system prior to my gleaning it from the crappile. It is very easy to not pay for software and remain non criminal if you eschew the chronic redirections and upgrades that are not functionally neccesary but make money for someone. Hardware is another thing. Ive rarely paid for hardware, and definately not full retail price. The thing is a lot of commercial wares are full of features that are not needed, or are composites of "more primative" features

- rolph 7y agothanx BTW always check any cd drives that come into your possesion, there are often disks left in them. undeleting files from a hardrive or thumbdrive is another source of free-for-you stuff.
- catacombs 7y agoI'd be curious to read a list of all the free software you use.
- rolph 7y agofirst off not all is free for everyone, it is aquired for nothing. WIndows has been taken out as i dont need it anymore, ive gone full linux with wine and never went back linux mint libre office vlc masm32 various browsers these are my every day carrys, but the GNU FOSS ecosystem has everything i need and most of what i want, other than that i roll my own.
- catacombs 7y agoAnd how do you watch movies and listen to music?

- catacombs 7y agoI meant to ask where you get your music and movies. Do you pay for them?
- rolph 7y agonope, libraries are cool, so is the arxiv. there are also a lot of abandonded items about, i mentioned earlier, that old CDdrives and disc players often have a disc in them. and radio stations are just fine, espescially if you stock up on some of the late night airings
