I propose a new challenge:
Descriptive post titles.
Oh great, Silicon Valley’s AI is just a major tech executive!
They are free to stay closed-source proprietary but prople have the right to voice their opinions.
That is not holier than thou.
For starters, don’t make a post asking how to make a torrent site on your main account lol
Anymore? Yes. Used to be more, but at this point it’s basically just the shittiest person of the bunch.
GOG. I don’t like steam so I try to avoid it where there’s not a large price difference.
They’re still federated with the instances, they’ve just blocked those particular communities for any user to see or interact with through Lemmy.world.
So for example, !adhd@lemmy.dbzer0.com should still be there.
For this community in particular, I think having a “federated community” would be especially helpful. Piracy communities will inevitably be taken down, but distributing them across many federated communities turns it into a game of whack-a-mole.
dbzer0 is no exception to this. There will be a time that the admin will start receiving DMCAs and will need to choose between complying and throwing themselves into legal jeopardy.
Unfortunately, the lemmy project maintainers and lead devs seem largely uninterested in such a feature and I lack the skill necessary to implement it, so it’s down to an invested and skilled community member, if it ever happens.
1337 should be used with extreme caution. The fact that admins are removing negative comments even makes that a useless method of gauging file safety.
But of course, any tracker can have malware in their software bundles, and you should treat all with caution, especially public-facing ones. But I personally will be avoiding 1337 from hereon, for sure.
Putin saw Arkansas, Virginia, Utah, and Mississippi were getting ahead of killing anonymity online and couldn’t let that happen.
What’s the point of your post? You’re just critiquing for the sake thereof.
It really depends on the particular developer right? Like, CDPR for example, whose parent company owns gog.com, pays its employees based on contractual obligation and initial sales. Beyond that, however, all money gets fed into the publisher and into the pockets of executives. Executives don’t make games. Executives do next to nothing and make nothing for it. I personally consider it patently unethical to support parasites like that.
Any instance in which I’m purchasing through a publisher or producer. Wherein I have no reasonable belief that my money is actually going to the people who developed the work.
Gambler! I want gambler! I specifically want a dice mainhand for gposes haha
What type of media were you pirating?
