People who put yellow text on a white background should be prosecuted.
This has to be the most unhinged thing thing I've read on Lemmy and all of the Fediverse so far.
We referring to teachers as "it" now?
Damn. Underpaid and dehumanized all at once. That's gotta be rough.
Just the idea of crudely drawn, overpriced pictures of apes needing to be repossessed because of missed loan payments makes me lose it.
It's so absurd that it reads like a parody.
They'd probably try to license out their cancer cure and put DRM on it so only the licensed company can synthesize the cure lol
I use a server with low latency when I'm just browsing the internet, watching YT videos, or playing a multiplayer game. When torrenting, I switch to a server with good bandwidth. Fortunately, I just recently started using a VPN that lets you sort servers by latency vs bandwidth, so I can easily switch back and forth depending on what I happen to be doing at the time.
In most cases I don't even need to do this though, since it's usually pretty easy to find a server that has both low latency and good bandwidth.
To my knowledge, this is more of a browser thing than a site thing. You should be able to set your browser to open links in a new tab everywhere by default.
You can but only if the bot account has actually been set as a bot account in its account settings page. Naturally, malicious actors aren't going to out their own bot accounts by setting them as bot accounts if they're looking to do something like astroturf or manipulate opinions through voting.
Or just use an ad blocker (as one should be doing anyway)
The worst part about this is that even though most of the people in the comments can see how painfully fake this story is, there's at least some people on the first post arguing in ernest about the story's "plausibility". Tells you everything you need to know about redditors, really. And that's not even getting into the tens of thousands of upvotes this drivel got even when everyone was actively making fun of the story for how fake it is in the comments.
This page on Rentry has instructions for how to crack IDM. I've been using this method for a year now, it always works. Be sure to bookmark that page as you'll need to repeat the instructions whenever IDM updates, but the program only updates rarely so you won't even need to worry about that happening frequently.
