@phoenixx The two choices should be Yarrr and Narrr.

[nonya_bidniss@infosec.exchange]

@phoenixx The no's don't know how

[martouf@piaille.fr]

@phoenixx for music, i search first if i find it on steam, bandcamp to buy it, otherwise, let's go
(For example, i want to buy the vampire survivors ode to castlevania soundtrack, but it is not available, so go piracy)

@phoenixx @msbellows Ummm, are you taking notes on a f-ing criminal conspiracy?!?!

[nf3xn@mastodon.social]

[cyberquixote@infosec.exchange]

@phoenixx maybe i do, maybe i dont

but also maybe i do, but i probably dont?

idk this question is too hard to answer.

what do we mean by piracy?

[jargoggles@kolektiva.social]

@aglimme @phoenixx @msbellows
Obviously everyone who voted "yes" likes to legally purchase sea shanty albums and swashbuckling movies. What else could it possibly mean?

[rpardee@hachyderm.io]

@phoenixx does ripping blu-rays from the library count?

[slyborg@ohai.social]

@phoenixx Bruh, this one time, I downloaded a CAR.

[skyblitz@ieji.de]

@phoenixx i wasn’t and after they incrased 700% the price added back ads they promised to remove and block your own account if you want to allow your old parents access to it, and split them on 6 different sources

And they wonder why we start back hacking

[liilliil@mastodon.online]

@phoenixx hate to do that, but they’ve left me no choice

[nano_squirrel@furry.engineer]

@phoenixx Yarr harr fiddlely dee, it's a pirate's life for me.

[970uts1d3@defcon.social]

@phoenixx
Of course not narc

[kemotep@mastodo.neoliber.al]

@phoenixx I will note that while I do on occasion pirate, that I believe that software worth using is worth paying for (and media worth consuming is worth paying for). And thus the inverse, software (and media) not worth paying for, is not worth my time.

I am currently not in a position financially to do so but I have budgeted out and looked up how to donate to all the major open source projects I use to put my money where my mouth is and pay for all this amazing FLOSS software I use.

[derderwish@social.chaotikum.org]

@phoenixx No, we have excellent public broadcasting.
