I don’t get it, the other day another user uploaded this exact image (without the Shitter comment) but was flooded with downvotes, what makes this post different?

I literally don’t give a single fuck about upvotes or that shit, but this genuinely is interesting.

I used to pirate all the things I can (movies, games, etc), but I reach a point in my life where I prefer to buy something if I believe its creators deserve it, if not, I don’t even bother pirating it. For example, basically thanks to Valve and Steam, gaming on Linux is a thing, so I buy there, but Epic Games who shamelessly block Linux as a platform can eat shit, and I would never even pirate a game like Alan Wake II because is exclusive of that platform and if I play it and like it, even though I don’t buy it, maybe someone else can get convinced by me that the the game is good and buy it, so no.

As a formal pirate, Linux is as good or better than Windows to run pirated games, the problem of “linux being harder to pirate than windows” is that we use Wine to run Windows programs on Linux, which is basically like an ‘an super minimalistic windows JUST to run .exe, nothing else’ and videogames needs A LOT of dependencies in order to run a game, and when those dependencies are asked in Wine, Wine cannot satisfied them and the game simply don’t run. How can you fix this? In pirated games, there’s a folder that I don’t remember how is called, but usually brings all the dependencies needed to run the game, just install the dependencies and then run the game. In my opinion, Bottles is the best to pirate, since it even have an option to specifically install Windows dependencies.

The few reasons why I love Latin America is because is so damn late to everything that age verification will never be a thing here.

Exceeeeept for Brazil, they always are or too advanced to the others countries, or too late.

What would be the case if instead of using a third party tool to download the video you just record the video using your phone? Would that count as an “circumvent tool”?

To be honest, of all the countries in Latin America, Brazil is the only one I sometimes find news about the government working with some company to ban piracy sites. But as someone also in Latin America, I have no doubt that you can find pirated media in the street as easy as you can buy bread.

Its funny how each time someone asks this gets the “this new yuzu fork” reply

Technically it is not stealing, because it is a digital good. 🤓

In South and Central America Goku is probably the second most recognizable male icon next to Jesus.

Are you sure about that?

PollyMC is a Prism Launcher fork but with “offline mode” and works perfectly on my opinion. I recommend downloading the flatpak version as the appimage asks you for certain versions of Java that are easy to install but sometimes gets a little complicated.

And yes, Micro$hit can eat shit. I personally bought Minecraft but on the day I was forced to migrate my Mojang account to a Micro$oft account with the threat that “If I don’t do it I’ll lose access to my game” I delete my Mojang account and use PollyMC since.

Mobilism is usually a very good source to get modded apps with unlocked paid subscriptions.

Good to know! I know it’s stupid and not at all the case, but I had read about a virus that ran on an old version of Windows when you open a file because Windows needed to compile the file to open it and the exploit took advantage of a vulnerability in that compiler to rescale to admin permissions, and I think about that when downloaded this serie.

What is Jackett’s manual search? Never heard of it.
