Was recovering an old virtual machine onto a new box and was shocked to see 9,999, I presume thats an upper limit in the UI. Dune (2021) for those curious

Now wheres my crossbones flag?

Laws written before the digital age regulating digital age things are the best.

Feels like a good part of the reason for Usenet to begin, I would like to try but I feel some bit obliged to provide for as long as I'm able. Thanks for your rundown, internationally differing laws are confusing

I am 70% sure this is correct, i remember vaguely: The swiss law was written in 2019 iirc. The idea is that there is a high tax on drives/usb sticks/dvds and all such devices. This gets distributed to copyrightholders in some way. And uploading is illegal.
