Piracy is ethical

Looks like the landed gentry gave the proletariate the memes of production.

I'll see myself out...

They are basically just democrats except they like guns.

Tbf, there's liberals like that too, myself included. There's a joke going around that "once you are far enough left you get your guns back".

Can't link to them directly per instance and community rules

Also earlier this year they stole purchased content from millions of their customers

Be the change you want to see in the world

I thought Lemmy would have stopped propagating it without a source.

You must not be familiar with people then.

Sony allowed you to purchase episodes and seasons of shows like Mythbusters. They specifically stated you were purchasing that content.

Then they removed that purchased content from people's account's after they went separate ways with Discovery. Sony and Discovery stole from their customers

No, that's too close to Memorial Day. And without Labor Day being in September the gap between July 4th and Thanksgiving is too wide to not have a holiday where the majority of workers get time off from work

Merely discussing piracy is not a crime. And that's all that happens in that community

Dude, I went through character creation and barely noticed the pronoun option was even there. The mod is unnecessary

Heads up, as of last night you can't search MangaDex via the old extension. Manga you already have favorited are still updated, but you can't find new ones to favorite

None. They're being paid in pride and accomplishment

c/patientgamers

It costs them money to include, so they'll take it out eventually

As the name suggests, you hang out with a chicken on a raft

I support the original copyright laws in the US. Mostly the same as we have now, but you were only automatically given 17 years of copyright protection, plus an additional 17 years if you filed for an extension. Effectively, you got a maximum of 34 years of copyright, not this 100+ years atrocity we have now. Imo, anything beyond that is corporate theft of the public domain.

Neither the server or community host copyrighted content. You can't even directly link to sources for it either per the community and server rules. All the community does is discuss piracy which isn't illegal

Could you please provide some proof that he used to mod r/jailbait?

Holy shit, it is. I'm really hoping that includes mobile, since it's the only thing keeping me using a Chromium browser

Apparently the GamePass version is like 4 updates behind the Steam version. According the the developer this is because of Microsoft's certification process taking multiple weeks

Also, if you're awful to consumers like Nintendo is, the gloves come off. I believe piracy as a form of protest is morally sound

Keep in mind that there were of plenty of pathogens back then that you aren't immune to now. A good example is smallpox

Yeah, OP's suggestions are just insane.

You're misunderstanding their comment. The person is referring to people that hold the phone up to their mouth to speak into, but not up to their ear to listen because they're using speakerphone. This is a dumb way to use the phone because you don't need to hold the phone up to your face if you're using speakerphone

And if you can't own anything by paying, is game piracy even theft anymore?

At least that's how it's supposed to be. You're really not supposed to store card info yourself.

Don't forget that we're talking about a company that took 3 years to add a shopping cart to their store

True, but with the ability to combine all competitors in a single feed a significant hurdle has been removed

That's their point about journalistic integrity

The issue with hypersonic missiles is that they go so fast that the air around them heats up enough to become a plasma. This prevents radio, microwave, and infrared based comms and radar systems from working. So any proper hypersonic missile is stuck with using either optical sensors (which require a ton of processing power and is slow) or inertial sensors (which aren't very accurate due to drift) in order to plot its course.

The Russians are the only ones with "hypersonic missiles" because they're using a different definition. Theirs are just ballistic missiles that move at hypersonic speeds, which by definition can't change course and have a huge IR and radar signature, so it's not that difficult to set a slower patriot missile to be in it's way to intercept.

Something tells me your toxic attitude here is a much more likely factor to why you can't get a guy

There's always a significant difference in what the Russian MOD says their equipment is meant for and what it's capabilities actually are.

Also, if Khinzal was really that maneuverable then how were the Ukrainians able to intercept multiple with the much slower Patriot missiles?

Just get out of mobas altogether before you require anger management courses

And don't put Enigma DRM in them

Hate to break it to you, but Konosuba isn't a parody, it's just a comedy isekai.

It's easier once you realize it's mainly real estate developers trying to oppress minorities by setting up a a bunch of shitty rules to be enforced by a petty wannabe-dictator named Ted

They are as disposable as you want them to be. I personally try to take good care of my pals

Seeing how much overlap they have with the KKK, I don't think it'd be that surprising

It's a Linux issue overall

I'd argue it's a developer issue, since they're the ones refusing to support Linux

Also Pokémon Arceus was still empty and boring

until it goes on sale (and it will)

Except Factorio. It has never and will never go on sale, and they were able to use that policy to get money back that they lost from G2A.

That being said, Factorio is worth the price tag
