Theft is taking something without paying for it. In the case of games, music, etc, you don’t pay for the file itself but for the work the artist put into it.

I found it weird they removed the network utility app. Doesn't seem like a complicated app to keep up to date. Sure, you can still use the terminal commands but it was nice to use a gui. https://www.macrumors.com/2020&#

I’ve been here since 2012. I feel there has been a shift from startup and programming discussions to more general interests. Definitely a lot more political debates here. Now Indiehackers forum feels more like the old HN.

I don’t think that’s accurate anymore. Bitcoin ten years ago was like the www in 1995. Now we have DeFi which runs on crypto. DeFi is to banks what e-commerce was to retail stores in 2000.
