Speaking of ruining it for everyone… Paid Plex shares do exactly that for those of us using Plex for friends and family.

It’s cut off in Voyager for me as well.

My dad introduced me to Napster and Weird Al.

While it would defeat most if not all audio DRM, this would result in a lossy capture, whether by line-in or Bluetooth.

Yeah, obviously the issue can be discovered. My point is that it’s not going to be immediately discovered by the cashier or a customer. It’ll probably not get discovered until the accountant comes by and notices the discrepancy.

No. The bill given to the customer would still show the correct amount.

And if anyone looked at previous bills from the backend, they would see normally priced chicken tenders. The total for the bill would be wrong though.

Bad developers are common though. And good documentation won’t stop a bad developer from doing a bad thing.

I agree that SQLi isn’t as common as it once was, but it still very much exists.

And without giving away specifics, I’ve personally found SQLi vulns in the wild within the last 5ish years.

No it would change the value of all past bills, future bills would still be correct.

You could. Food is there for stealing. Land is there for growing on. People might shoot at you for trying, but you could.

I assume you’re speaking in jest?

There is no ethical consumption.

I’m pretty sure that phrase isn’t actually a call to apathy.

Not attempting to make a call to apathy. On the contrary, I just reject the idea that what you buy from who is leading to any material improvement in society. I think there are much better ways to push for positive change. Like sure, don’t buy the thing, but don’t fool yourself into thinking you’ve made a difference. Helping your community/mutual-aid, direct action, these are the sorts of things that I think go a lot further towards resulting in positive material changes.

I don’t know, I’m American, I can’t really eat if I don’t indirectly pay money to the largest neo-imperialist empire in the world (who is currently funding a genocide btw).

There is no ethical consumption. You either consume unethically or you die.

I certainly didn’t mean to make any moral judgments about the kid. I’m not even sure that I think it’s morally wrong (unwise and legally wrong, no doubt, I just don’t think his actions hurt any person and I don’t care if an action hurts a corporation). The kid is clearly talented and I hope he gets the treatment he needs. I sure hope he can eventually make a living with his talents and perhaps eventually use his talents towards positive change.

I used to work as a pentester. It’s an open secret that like a good chunk of people in the industry are former criminals. But former is kind of the keyword. Not only is he doing crime after being arrested and still under surveillance, but he can’t even lie and say he won’t do it again. The kid is unhireable, at least not until he can get his compulsions under control.

Well put, no disagreements here.

I don’t know, lots of people deal with mental illness without being bigoted.

Read any of her nfos, almost certain the Hogwarts one is filled with a bunch of slurs. Also the few before and after that release. Frankly, she’s probably got some mental issues, reads kind of schizo. Not an excuse but yeah…

Worth also mentioning the Tolkien estate is notoriously letigous. There are piracy sites that specifically ban Tolkiens works from being uploaded for that very reason.

I use rtorrent with Flood as the frontend web ui.

Over the years I’ve used Usenet, public trackers, and private trackers. I always come back to the private trackers.

If your public trackers have what you want at speeds you want, and you’re happy using a VPN for all downloads, then by all means.

But I like private trackers because I get my hands on the content ASAP (both because they get posted quickly but also because of high seeder ratios). The quality of the encodes on the good trackers is maintained by moderation teams. And often times I’m looking for rare content that can only be found on private trackers. Most have a request system that allows you to even get stuff not immediately available.

Yes you have to seed, but usually it’s doable to maintain a good ratio even with slow upload speeds (freeleech or bonus systems help here).
