sourcery, w Ohh yeah, EMPRESS drama is BACK!

I did not have defending DRM on my bingo card. Transphobia is especially vile though.

sounddrill,

Defending the intent behind DRM is fine, but DRM is the worst

Nope. The problem is DRM that works is always abused. Remember the unskippable ads on DVDs and Blu-Rays? Always.

Move to a place that doesn’t care about international copyright violations, make sure local content never gets posted, never cross any borders again in your life.

If you need to ask, you’ll get caught for sure if your torrent websites gains any popularity. Your best way out is to make sure you can’t be punished severely when that happens.

SilentStorms, w Ohh yeah, EMPRESS drama is BACK!

Jesus, everyone involved in this shit is so deranged. God I hope the “Scene” dies out with the next generation, just chill people releasing cracks without following a tome of rules and schizoposting.

Is there some correlation with this insane low level understanding of software engineering and a mental health issues? A lot of the scene seems to be like this and good old Terry Davis (rest in peace you racist)

Unironically, yes. Multiple studies dating back years have found a link between high intelligence and various mental health issues.
There was one particular paper I read about a decade ago, where researchers surveyed a bunch of collage students to find demographic trends based on their preferred operating system. From what I recall, the demographics of Windows users were not too far off from those of the university as whole, and Mac users were similar, aside from women being significantly over-represented. Linux users on the other hand, were almost all men, and nearly every mental health issue imaginable was over-represented by a huge margin.

I use Linux, and my wife’s head in the freezer says I’m perfectly sane.

As a CS dude who uses Linux and is around way too many people who seem like they genuinely are in need of some therapy on a daily basis, this entirely checks out, tbh.

I’m now mildly worried for my own mental state

bobotron,

It’s ok amigo, from this one comment I’ve read of yours you seem like you are just fine

gamer,

That’s funny, but I’m betting my nutsack that you just made that up, or it’s copy pasta.

YoMismo, w Ohh yeah, EMPRESS drama is BACK!

Personally I don’t give a fuck about all this drama, it’s like a cockfight for me, but a scene group defending DRM !? Finally may be they got paid to avoid denuvo releases…!?

laylawashere44, w Ohh yeah, EMPRESS drama is BACK!

I guess the takeaway is that Empress is deranged weird and Skidrow are creepy weird.

FeelzGoodMan420, w How could I start a torrent site and not get caught?

You should probably call the FBI and ask permission.

I have half a mind to start releasing cracks just so there’s 1 cracker who isn’t a fucking bigot.

EDIT: btw, didn’t Voksi get arrested back in 2018? And EMPRESS started releasing cracks in like 2019. So are we to believe that Voksi goes to jail for a year, and immediately comes out and starts cracking again, all without receiving another visit from the feds? Doubt.

EDIT2: lol here’s Voksi’s response: lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/2218172

Fuck EMPRESS and SKIDROW, SKIDROW for dragging Voksi into the petty bullshit and both of them for their childish, edgleord bullshit.

I have had this exact thought, but that would undoubtedly eat up what little free time I have these days. I don't have as much of it as I used to.

Hudell,

And that’s why all those folks have mental issues. Having the skill is not enough, you need to pretty much dedicate your whole life to “the craft”

sounddrill,

No need to crack games but hear me out: fork goldberg emu and maintain

gamer,

I don’t get why people here are expecting pirates of all people to be polite company.

Not trying to be rude, but the fact that you are asking this question demonstrates the fact that you shouldn’t.

If you want to contribute to free and open information, set up a VPN, bind QBitorrent or another FOSS torrenting software to it, and seed as much as you can.

Help digital archivists and data horders if you have the storage.

Spread accurate information on this stuff to help others.

If you really want to help build out the grey and black market infrastructure for data and digital goods, you need to learn advanced infosec and programming skills and that takes a long time and lots of study.

You were so obsessed with whether or not you could, you didn’t stop to think if you should.

Conyak, w How could I start a torrent site and not get caught?

Step 1: Move to Switzerland. Step 2: torrent site

magnor,

Probably safer to move to Russia or North Korea.

matey,

I don’t think you and I have the same definition of the word “safer.”

magnor,
@magnor@lemmy.magnor.ovh avatar

Safer for the torrent site. For the people running it, eh, who knows.¯⁠\⁠⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠⁠/⁠¯

Rabbit,

Start revolution and overthrow dictator and put myself in as dictator. Build up military and gather nukes under guise of protecting country, but it’s really to protect me from copyright trolls.

I don’t really understand how can a pirate defend DRM

people_are_cute,
@people_are_cute@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

DRM cracking is treated as a sport by the Scene. They don’t actually care about pirate philosophies and such, only the challenge.

rikudou,

They like to pretend so.

Xirup, w Ohh yeah, EMPRESS drama is BACK!

Drama aside, Skidrow really does “cracks”? I thought they were only repackers.

Voksi, you fokkin prick, DRM exists for a reason in this world, it protects legitimate interests of actual hard working people, that are entitled to get a decent income from their hard effort!!!

I’m not on any “side” but wut? We are talking about a repacker to a cracker, I think they can be considered equally “guilty” in the sense of “making hard-working people lose money” by distributing the games themselves. And what the hell, I’m pretty sure that’s not the reason DRM exists, and if it is, it’s to secure the income of companies, not their workers.

monstoor,

They cracked Denuvo on Fe recently. Granted that is a Unity3D game so the modular approach makes it slightly easier to crack.

Lummy, w It would appear lemmy.world has blocked this community

I was on Lemmy World too, but lately they’ve started to restrict more and more. Restricting access to piracy was my limit

I bet that person was the kid in class that always snitched and reminded the teachers to assign homework

The kind of person who became hall monitor and let it go to their head really fast

The kind of loser that becomes a cop just for the ability to boss people around
