The original post was about burning CDs and charging the dupication cost, we already covered the industrial scale boodtlegging for profit falls under counterfeiting.

In terms of profits to the original artist it’s exactly the same as resale though, they get zero from both.

You are very naive if you think copyright is serving the actual artists producing art.

Even for legitimate copies, a retailer doesn’t get in touch with the artist to let them know who they’ve sold a copy to.

Is the original architect involved when you sell your house? Everyone involved in that specific transaction knows what is being traded, stop acting dense.

I was thinking more about the cd producer and purchaser. If the purchaser knows they are getting bootlegs it’s just plain old copyright infringement, if not it’s counterfeiting.

Sure as long as everyone involved knows that is what is going on.

Counterfeiting is what has gone on here.

That’s the joke.

There is a real risk that will become the attitude though, no need for security researchers, the LLMs got us covered. Great if true but it’s probably not.

Aren’t most torrents “unofficial”?

Sure but then you are just paying somone else to do the piracy for you. I guess it’s cheaper than proper subscriptions but I feel somewhat ideologically opposed to these pay for piracy services that just leech from the ecosystem.

Isn’t streamio just paying somone else to leech torrents for you and stream you the results? Just grab the show using sonarr or something and delete it if it’s not to your liking.

You don’t expose your NAS, you expose a web server to serve Jellyfin content. Ideally you front it with a reverse proxy.

I don’t think back ported security patches should be changing public APIs, are you speaking from actual experience or is that some kind of theoretical problem that might not actually exist or at least isn’t the norm?

Depends on what value of most “users” we are talking. Most users rarely stray outside the browser and I’d say rolling release with the risk of breakage it entails would not suit your average user very well at all.

Power users that are trying to eek out every drop of performance sure.

That is a release engineering issue on the developers side in my opinion though no less real. Developers targeting Linux should target the current version of big LTS releases like debian and Redhat enterprise if they are serious about compatibility beyond “works on my system”

For the vast majority of computer users I’d says debian is fine since most users hardly step out of the browser these days.

Violates copyright of the anti piracy press release,alpha pirate move there.

Copyright gives them a monopoly over (legitimate) distribution so why spend any more than necessary when people can’t go elsewhere for your content.

I wonder how many actual piracy sites they managed to disrupt at the cost of those legitimate ones.

That is still better than no physical release at all as its at least transferrable, but yeah,the servers can be pulled and it made unobtainable if your console storage does.

Fairly sure steam has sufficient access to your system to do just that to the games it installed.
