What sort of crack are they on that they think unauthorized use of an entire work for commercial gain is fair use? I think copywrite laws are ridiculous but that is a pretty low bar they are trying to set.
They should have to pay for their usage or retrain the model without it. Going to guess they would prefer to pay up.
By “controlled lending system,” do you mean the library? If so, it is ridiculously expensive for them to offer ebooks and audiobooks. One ebook costs $60-100 and they can only lend the licensed copy for two years. You would think audiobooks would be more expensive to do but publishers charge roughly the same.
When you do not have much of a bank account and you could easily be starting at tens of thousands in legal fees, it’s pretty easy to be unable to find them.
Not specifically, no. When I did change to building my own NAS, I cracked open my older 4TB backup drive to use as a spare.
I’m lost with what I’d need to do to access my server from outside my local network, and terrified of doing something wrong and leaving a hole open so any hacker can access my server. I’d like to do it some day, but I’d rather have a safe local network than screw and get my data stolen or deleted.
Setup a VPN via Wireguard or Tailscale. I personally have not done that but I have VPN setup through OpenVPN which I did not find that hard and people say that is significantly harder than Wireguard.
The other (less safe) option would be to setup a DMZ on your network for stuff you want to self host. That is a bit more involved though. I went through it for fun and setup a public Nextcloud instance along with DDNS and a reverse proxy. I was just messing around though and shut it down after testing performance.
If they are up for that, I’d be happy to part with mine for cheap. They’d need to get an E5-2650 (v2) to meet their 16 core requirement but a pair of those are pretty cheap.
You can usually find HPs for cheaper although they are pretty picky on what they work with. For some reason, HP decided that it will work with stuff they have not certified but the fans will constantly be at 100%.
You can find HP Proliant dl360 G8s and G9s for about that price if you want enterprise grade.
Just ask them to re-image it. An individually bought key might not pass audit. I recall my company getting audited by Adobe for Acrobat and we had to pay about $12k sure there were lots of individually purchased copies of Acrobat. Adobe did not care if we showed them the receipt for it.
Abandonware has been a thing for a long time.
At least the developer for Small Radios Big Televisions is handing it out for free now. Looks like a pretty decent game.
Because SQLite is slow as balls. Use MariaDB and redis:

This is some bullshit. Nintendo is claiming because they use prod.keys, it’s only purpose is piracy. Yuzu does not include the keys and people that own the games own the key.
I switched over to Linux about a year ago and personally do not care if you do. But I do agree that some seemingly simple stuff on Linux can be fucking annoying. And that would be fine if you could post on forums without at the very least one douche nozzle implying that you are an idiot.
I don’t. I have 1GB/1GB so there is not really a need to.
That seems a bit pricey considering you still need a few items. I’ve had a QOTOM for quite a while that has served me well. Looks like they have Intel four 2.5 Gb ports with an N100 for pretty cheap.

Throw a stick of RAM and an m.2 drive in there and it would be cheaper and more capable than the Banana Pi. You could even throw Proxmox on there and virtualize pfsense.
Filling out your Linux ISO library, I see.
They are no more or less reputable than more well known providers. Which providers are you comparing it to? Please provide some sort of source for what you are saying.
I was going to ask if it was Metallica who used to tell people to tape their songs off the radio but then got annoyed at Napster for spreading their songs.
