Why does the PS3 require firmware upgrades for the blu-ray encryption key but not a normal blu-ray player? My standard blu-ray player still plays everything just fine and never gets updates.
Thanks once again - these series of posts are the best thing on Lemmy at the moment. Wish the Internet had stayed like this rather than what it has become. Your content and the fediverse gives me hope…
Thanks for another great post. These give me such a feeling of nostalgia! Can’t believe I’m reading Tibia news. I used to no life that game as a kid haha. Might have to look into trying it out again. …I bet I could play it on the deck…
Did you play the first KCD on the steam deck? It’s on my list to play, but I haven’t looked at how it handles on there or if I should just use my actually medicine to play.
PS: where did that first image come from? The girl and cat in the arcade, I love it!
Man, I didn’t know that about Blu Ray encryption keys. Hollywood deserves the downturn it’s going through right now. Give me the GOG of movies and TV shows. That it doesn’t already exist is stupid.
I think there is an option for DRM-free. It’s going to be a controversial take but…when companies pull this kinda thing? I’m more inclined to be a pirate girl than support this kind of process.
Yeah, but then you have to sift through the files with Canadian cable channel watermarks in the corner, and if you decide you want subtitles, you might not have them available.
But since you pointed it out, I don’t think there’s any kind of video that can’t be pirated easily, which makes the presence of DRM even dumber.
Not even the same quality, piracy is often better either because they combined multiple sources to get better quality or because streaming services won’t even give you the quality you pay for without jumping through their hoops. To the second point, Netflix stopped supporting pcm 5.1 audio on their desktop app so I have to pirate the shows I’m paying for unless I want to watch in stereo.
The graphics were extremely groundbreaking for the time. Unless you lived through it, it would be hard to understand. Its hard to compare it to any modern graphics advancement because modern graphics advancements are all such tiny visual improvements, its not the same as the massive leaps early 3D graphics had.
