Once a pirate, always a pirate
  • Also, complaining about not having time but wasting their time talking to strangers online. I could understand the perspective from someone who doesn't pirate, but to a pirate it is pretty hilarious seeing them making it out as this incredibly difficult time consuming thing like infomercials do.

  • Once a pirate, always a pirate
  • What are you pirating that makes it so hard? I don't bother with software or programs so it's just pretty much looking at what's newly released and torrenting it.

    Why even pirate if it's that much of a pain? Pretty much same logic to me a someone who complains about how confusing pc gaming is. I'd point to the consoles.

  • Really? I could understand that point from someone not in the piracy community, but doesn't seem any more time consuming than posting on lemmy. Not really starved for time if someone is spending their time on social media.

    Mind you I don't pirate software or games, so maybe that's why. Pretty much hardest has been waiting for download to finish.

  • The hunt is part of the fun. Like how people will opt to build a PC or a keyboard over a pre-built or pull out vinyl over digital. The steps taken to retrieve and enjoy the media is sometimes a relaxing process.

  • I am pouring one out to this little champ. Stripping HDCP and letting me... archive streaming services from 2016-2023 RIP
  • Biggest evidence of that is Epic will give away games for free, but there will be people who prefer to pay for the Steam version over the free version.

    That's the biggest evidence that piracy is a problem of distribution and goes against the idea that those who pirates are against paying for a product.

  • A piracy utopia - the ultimate media sharing platform
  • Decentralization has always been the way for piracy, since many places inevitably go down throughout the years but it being spread out is what keeps everything from being taken down by a single closure. So while not convenient it makes it more resilient.

  • Switching to db0
  • Yeah, had my first account there and enjoyed it, but afterwards the closure and the down times after return leading to not knowing when the instance was up led to it dying. But, I'm glad the spirit lives for fmhy on db0.

  • It would appear lemmy.world has blocked this community
  • It's comedy how wishy washy they are on not federating with Meta despite bunch of their users saying they hate Facebook and Zuck but are convinced to defederate from us by a single post from such a suspicious account.
