We ain’t pay for shit.
Yargh!
It’s a fantastic resource even if you are personally kinda cringe.
Thanks hexbear. If you’re from one of the bullying crowd, then the feeling’s mutual :P
I just want to say db0 thanks for pythorhead!! definitely made my bot a bit easier to write.
Glad to hear it!
i don’t even pirate much and im still subscribed, must be something in the activitypub protocol
(to avoid anyone getting whooshed the last part is a joke)
This is pretty awesome grats dbzer0!
Wasn’t this damn fediverse made because of this…? It should be obvious…
nah, it was a politically conscious choice to set up something like reddit, outside the control of capital and the state. the devs have written about it.
I mean, yes, but granted, for all I know, I’m supposing that Lemmy was built for open-source software supporters, and I guess alotta ‘civil’ liberals and ‘libertarians’ joined in, due to this cause…
I was thinking there was like a seperation between the M-Leninist mods (eg. Dessalines) and their site’s followers… like church and state…
I can see the headlines from shitty tech news websites now: “What is lemmy? A platform mostly where crooks go to find content to illegally download.”
Or something equally ridiculous.
So I guess it’s good there was a mass exodus from lemmy world.
A pirate is always free.
At no fee 🎶
Surprising its not one on lemmynsfw
Back in my day we had Netflix and nothing else, and it was good. Nowadays I can’t even watch Looney Tunes on fucking Max because they were delisted. Please someone explain to these execs why they are losing money. They’re dying.
Execs are getting paid millions! They DGAF. Once they drive one thing into the ground, they can just move on after landing very softly with their golden parachute.
Because of the price hike by all the streaming services, pirating never felt better. I can watch anything I want, any time, dont have to wait for my monthly sub to expire to switch to another provider and than watch what onley they provide. Maybe if pirscy numbers rise they will do somthing that helps the consumer.
To be fair I can’t find a decent collection Looney Tunes on the high seas either.
It’s out there. I managed to collect nearly everything from I think '35 onwards.
I got into datahording pirated media out of spite, youthful angst and complete lack of funds. Now i literally consider it an act of preservation.
lack of funds
datahoarding
how’s that working out for you?
I did the same, gotta keep an eye out for good deals. Last year i got a 18tb ultrastar HDD for $40 cad from an auction ($10+$30 shippibg to RMA)
Also shucked a 12tb Ultrastar out of a external enclosure
At one point I got 3 used 1tb drives for free out of an old business server
Im up to about 40tb of storage across all my drives now
Yarr!
