You need to get a library card, and some libraries have an aegis that covers larger groups of people (for eg all Californians), while others only cover those that live in a given city/town.
So no, it’s not unethical, unless you’re pretending to live in CA (or wherever) when you don’t, in which case why bother with getting a card and app and just torrent.
Hey, just so you know, you can sign up for multiple library cards and Libby will give you the option to choose the shortest hold times.
I know San Bernardino has a free digital card for for CA residents, and I think the Sacramento library has a similar situation but you need to get a card in person.
I used an app on my phone to get a rough idea of the decibel level i listen at, and marked it on my amp’s knob, then stay at or below that safe level – plenty loud for me.
Something like this, as a reference, and 80db as my ‘max’ level marked on my amp.
Denuvo is always online DRM software, that usually results in performance issues (reduced frame rate, increased latency, stuttering, etc.).
In this case it appears Ubisoft avoided tried to skirt the potential bad press from performance issues by delaying the inclusion of denuvo until after people had bought the game/early reviews came out.
RIP to a legend.
Just find libraries in your city first, then check the counties and neighboring cities, as they usually have reciprocal agreements, or may be part of a regional network for ebooks. Then check the state (in my experience, state libraries are open to anyone that lives in the state, but you generally have to show up at the branch with an ID and proof of residency).
