Oh yeah idk, thats the problem with those estimates is people don’t usually buy everything at full price, they rent or wait for sales or subscribe to a streaming service or gamepass, so even if you assume pepple would have bought everything they pirate, how do you assign a value to it. Like i wasn’t even thinking about movie tickets, i was thinking like 20 or 30 bucks for a bluray. Idk how much they are because i haven’t bought any in ages though lol.

Also 90% of the people who work on movies don’t usually get royalties. They’ve already been paid for their work, who cares if the production company CEO gets a few extta bucks?

Hi FBI. I will just say 5000 seems crazy low though, especially if you’re assuming a movie is $20-$30 and a game is like $10-$80. Dunno how you’d calculate tv shows but dvd/bluray seasons/box sets can get real expensive fast.

Iirc what.cd was freeleech for the first week, so i did go nuts. Downloaded anything that seemed popular that didn’t have a huge amount of seeders, and then after the freeleech period ended i downloaded basically every freeleech torrent i could find whether i wanted it or not, just for the seeding. This let me keep quite a good ratio despite having a terrible upload speed at the time. Alot of sites will also give bonus seeder points for uploading new torrents i think, especially if they have a request or bounty system.

They’ve got the REAL 36 lessons locked away in there.

He doesnt actually know how to write songs, but in his head he “knows” hes the main character, so he thinks hes gonna get a group of musicians together, start playing some shitty chord, and everything will just fall into place and the bassist and drummer will stsrt playing along with some brilliant ideas of their own that he can take all the credit for because he’s the frontman and he started the band.

Hadnt heard of this one so i did a search but anker games (dot) my is the first one that came up and looked sketchy, so i checked fmhy and they link to ankergames (dot) net, so i assume thats the reliable one just fyi.

Archive.org has been operating for 30 years. You think your shitty little sarcasm is equivalent to an institution thats been around nearly as long as the internet, and yet has entirely resisted and avoided any of the enshittification thats infected literally everything else thats come after it? The internet archive is one of the last fundamentally good and public serving institutions and somehow you’re licking the boots of record companies trying to capitalize on expired copyright claims. Reexamine your priorities and fuck off while youre at it, since your ‘better idea’ is clearly to just do nothing at all.

Sounds like a cool idea, why don’t you set it up?

da da da The hardest button to button

Full sunlight filling the sky. Unless you’re in the far north or far south this would be very concerning.

These are a little more than character defects… theres lots of historical figures who didn’t rape and murder.

Theres a difference between nsfw memes and joke/shitpost content, and straight up porn though. Thats why i just have different accounts for different purposes, and on my main block porn as it comes up.

He released some glitch/acid jazz stuff under the name acidwolf thats pretty good too, but not as good imo. The range of his flashbulb stuff is just incredible though, and i dont think hes ever made a song i dont like

I fucking love the flashbulb. Way underrated. Been my favorite artist for almost 20 years now.

Always speak using the terms SWIM, someone who isn’t me, to avoid legal culpability. Or post as if it were your goldfish or hamster describing their piracy activities. This is foolproof, i learned this secret spell in the ancient era.

I cant speak for everyone but for me it depends on the day which one itll be.

Shitty comment, fucking keep it to yourself next time bitch ass.

This is dumb. If the students actually did this, one of them would definitely end up shooting up the rest. Everyone knows you keep the vest on until the ceremony is over and you’re safely home.

None of the images in the posted link show any kind of right wing thinking, simply him responding to right wing ideas, often more thoughtfully than alot of people would. Whoever that max person is might have been a close friend, in which case any leftist knows you sometimes have to temper your arguments to try to gradually get through to people. Even the architecture thing, hes talking about how material conditions have shaped and caused the “oppressiveness” that carlson calls out, whereas tucker is claiming its intentionally designed to make people miserable or some shit.
