I wonder how these people sleep at night… Fighting over scraps for a book with such significance. Shameful. There’s no other words.

Anti piracy making lower class life more miserable and worsening the health of culture 💯💯💯

You’re fighting the good fight ! Please do torrent !

Yes yes yes ! Keepers of knowledge!

You’re doing great man, please keep it up i’m not even joking. Maybe someday you’ll be the one guy that still has that old gem everybody lost.

5mbps is high in my book, i used to download 1080p stuff and games on an adsl network and trust me I WISHED that shit could reach 5mbps ! Most of my pirate life i’d have miraculous spikes at 1mbps and i still always went for 1080p stuff or if I can’t find it in that quality 720. To me when i watch something i want to enjoy it to the fullest so i don’t even bother with lower quality, i don’t have 4k hardware so i don’t bother with that.

(I’ve enjoyed fiber connection for a year or two and i always get surprised by the speed of it lmao)

This could be a very formative memory even if he get disinterested from computers, getting this kind of perspective on things can go a long way !

I do not know about the video but i can’t agree with this table. Even if you don’t buy it an artist work should be spread if you’re not the one buying it by talking about it or just seeding you’ll allow someone to support the author. This makes piracy look like some grey thing, IT IS NOT.

Support the artists and if you can’t or don’t want to, spread the word this is how it works.

Yt-dl and use any media player, it’s the easiest way to get most of those option ticked.

I seed as much as I can but I still have a 0.75 ratio sadly. I tend to dl random old shit nobody wants so i’m just helping the other weirdos like me. I plan on switchi g to linux and I’d like to set up my computer to be as secure as possible and then maybe upload stuff also.

And like in the old times I bring my hdd with me and share with friends when we meet in person !

Interesting read thanks !

Even though I agree with you, I’d like to enphasize on piracy NOT being theft. Your analogy is great but I prefer to say it again just in case.

Not an answer to your question but i wonder if in 40 years or so you’ll have someone asking “how do I dowload all of a video game studio work ? My grandma is really into soulslike, how can I download all of fromsoftware games ?”

I’d add that important or not, it’s great as an artist to know that you’ll touch anyone ! :) It’s not always about history or grand things it’s also about human feelings and spreading any message really !
