Oh, you believe law is fair? You sound so cute.

Maybe filing a charge.org petition to raise an alternative service to charge.org. Maybe something in the Fediverse, even!

Hahahahha! The sucker.
only half an hour
no information on the internet connection quality
Minetest I guess. Can’t trust that I can get Retroarch plus the cores and games I want on time, and it’s not worth the hassle for only 3 hrs drive.
Maybe you jest but now I’m seriously wondering why hasn’t this been proposed. It’s defo better than something like “disallow list”.
Oh yeah that was a shitshow. I made a point to keep “master” in my repos and configurations because it’s the other meaning of master - one of the many others. Words are allowed to mean different things, ya know? If I’m drinking some coke I’m certainly not drugging myself (…I hope).
After all, the command to attach to a master is not “git slave”, it’s “git pull”.
They have a button to go to the latest version of the docs, but not to the equivalent page on the latest version
Oh yeah this is a PITA. Tho in that case it’s skill issue on their end.
Course I do. Why, do you need a link to the newest version of the joke?
Skill issue. Old version docs tend to offer you a redirect to more recent docs, and even then something sintactic like an “IN” operator is unlikely to change in form or structure between versions of a database engine.
That and the weird aversion to introducing new or useful keywords, or even extending the symbol set that doesn’t even use full ASCII.
From an ethical standpoint, in the modern world, not teaching your children how to pirate is being an irresponsible parent. Not just because the “download stuff for free” aspect of piracy, but because piracy is associated to a number of moral and ethical decisions and tenets that also form important ideologies. Getting ready access to information, and being capable to redistribute information, for example, is a key element to anti-fascism ideologies which is why eg.: punk places an emphasis on radio. Being able to fight your own fights instead of only trading on the currency (digital or otherwise) other people impose on you is a core element of both digital and physical sovereignty, which is one of the reasons why stuff like KYC laws or banning of sex workers in economic operations have to be fought against.
Would need a change to eg.: DMCA as well because even if the IP was lost to the public domain, having to crack the DRM to get the game working in the first place would still be illegal.
Heck, just taker the oppoerunity and also redo DMCA from scratch.
If there was a way to do that, i’d be more happily inclined to spend my money on a decade year old game.
True. And this falls squarely on their responsibility. If they set up a Patreon or Kofi something, for example, and make it known, then we can support them directly.
Or they could just publish the information required to do a cash mail / wire transfer. But I don’t know how the fees would work for that with small donations.
Because you are not exhausting parts that actually get exhausted, nor that can actually get a harm to reputation in their industry due to association to the corpo. If you want to go after a corpo, you go after the employees, the physical facilities (they cost money and time to rebuild / migrate) and, if possible, the jobhunters.
I’ve seen nothing in the requirements that say that the designated person has to be reachable. If I had to set a fediverse instance of something, I’d just set the mailer inbox to /dev/null
or smth to save storage. Or just subject the corpos to the same treatment they subject normal citizens,

I’m talking about exhausting the corpo and damaging their imag
All you’ll be exhausting is an AI. They’re using AIs now to write the DMCA requests, which actually does lead me to wonder if such takedown requests are even legal (an AI can’t, to my knowledge, legally represent the interests of a legal person). But the point is, if you’re thinking of “exhausting a corpo” you’re thinking it wrong.
Devil’s advocate: “If you copy it, the [original] owner doesn’t lose anything…”
They loose the right to distribute it or not distribute it to who they choose.
They already lost that right when they gave their product over to a licensor or distributor. Especially more in some industries such as book publishing.
If morality is tied to law,
How cute how innocent you are.
I’m totally fine with something like 540p or 480p, although I guess that’s because my preference is good ol’ TV shows that aired in the 90s or 00s over TV cable, so I’m fine with SDTV quality. And honestly, there’s not much sense in downloading all seasons of, say, Ally McBeal in 4K when you can download 8 full glorious 90s shows with their entire seasons in SDTV in the same space.
Even with “modern” stuff, I’ve seldom found a movie or TV show post 2012 that merits anything higher than 720p. I don’t get why don’t movie codecs get a multi-res options so that for example you can get the action scenes in 1080p, even 60fps if you want, but the melancholic scenes and the quiet drama scenes and the credits in 480p. Would save lots of space without losing quality where it matters.
