I completely agree with you but would go one step further - piracy is not only "not immoral", it is ethically necessary. Without piracy the hard work people have put into their creations (e.g. for the Nintendo WiiU/3DS) could vanish at the whim of one small group of people (in this example, Nintendo C-level execs). Of course there are other reasons too. But this alone is sufficient IMHO.
Technically yes. Due to the way Lemmy works, there are no Lemmy-wide terms of service.
HOWEVER
You would need to find an instance whose admins are willing to host that discussion. Otherwise you'd find yourself banned fairly swiftly as J. Random Admin wouldn't want to touch it with a barge pole. You would also find that instance eventually gets defederated.
I tried it on two sites - New York Times and Financial Times. NYT gives the error message "12ft has been disabled for this site" and FT doesn't remove the paywall. Nice idea, shame about the execution. :)
My main requirement is being able to type in facts or thoughts, and have them offloaded somewhere (I don't care where but would prefer it be local). Then later on I could bash in a few keywords and the program would spit out things it knows about those keywords. I don't want to be involved in trying to organise my thoughts. That way lies madness. :P
The biggest struggle with obsidian was how it seemed to try to subtly push me to link everything together. I have a very disorganised neurospicy mind and I was hoping to be able to offload the burden of organising stuff to a program on my computer, but I couldn't intuitively get to grips with how Obsidian could help me with that other than just pushing me to do it myself.
I'm just curious at this point. I'd like to spin up a second brain but I've tried a few options - Zim, Obsidian, OneNote, text files synced with Dropbox, nothing seems to really stick for me.
