If it is new malware, scanners wouldnt pick up on it.

Actually they do often pick up on it, unless it is a very novel attack vector (and probably not something you'd find on a pirate site). Malware often follows very predictable code execution patterns of communicating with outside IP'S and modifying other executables, and these are things that can be detected by most AV.

On behavior tab there is tons of stuff. Shouldnt there be none?

There will never be none. it's all listed as low or no risk/informational only anyway, which goes back to the pattern recognition thing.

VT is listing things that the file has done during viewing. ALL things. This stuff might or might not be a concern, whether or not it's a known attack or pattern of malicious behavior. If you are a legit security analyst you can use the behavior data to see what files its touching and stuff and understand good and bad security design. Like, the only actual yellow warning is... it apparently looked at Google dns. Which is something any browser pdf viewer will do.

Oh. The other thing I forgot to mention, is every submission to Z-Lib goes through an approval process where a certain number of community contributors have to review the document and make sure it's legible, safe, and valid. I know, because I've submitted stuff before, it takes quite a few days to go live. It's not just random bad actors shotgunning stuff onto the site.

I have downloaded hundreds of documents from Z-library and LibraryGenesis and never had an issue with a single one of them.

That virus total scan shows free and clear, it has some warnings about there being external links inside the doc afaik (VT very broken on mobile so i can't understand the report well), but that's really fringe edge stuff to actually be "dangerous". You're over-awfulizing the danger.

A bunch of food and drink brands spun up by influencer personalities as merchandising.

Ngl I'm just never going to update my firmware, unless they force push it without my input. My x1c works fine there's nothing I can see them adding that I need anymore.

Very many I'll bet. The medically accepted "normal" range for free T in women is 15 to 70 ng/dl (quick and dirty google), so 66 is already inside of that. And thats not counting the huge swath of women with pcos/endo/etc disorders that tend to result in higher T as well.

I'm stocking up on some of my hobby supplies specifically because I think he'll raise prices, like he's literally said he would multiple times.

I was never one to use Instagram, specifically because of the meta bullshit... looks like maybe I'll try pixelfed as a first time for the format.

The kind where I build everything in my head, write nothing down, forget it in a day or two never to be seen again while I feel sad about not ever developing them properly

I've had to say this so many times. You think trump's "base" gives the tiniest flying fuck what happens to them personally? They will hate deere all day long and still think that being able to legally kill brown kids and gay/trans people is vastly more important than their entire livelihood being ransacked; because Fox and OAN told them so.
