I’m working at a university, and hoo boy, did we use a lot of cracked shit. And funniest thing is that half of that shit can be acquired legally for free as part of education licensing.

I’m happy to be the part of reason why in recent years my department has been shifting towards FOSS alternatives. Like yeah, it’s not morally wrong to pirate from the likes of Adobe or Microsoft, but I’m not a fan of people even simply making a habit of using software from aforementioned companies.
