Actually, by pirating I have a higher quality video than paying for Prime Video, because their stupid DRM doesn't support HD video on Linux, and from torrents I can watch in 1080p with no problem
Why didn't I think of that earlier
@rafal06 corposhit is increaingly hobbled by it's own self imposed fatal flaws that it's becomming not worth it
@fluffykittycat exactly
@fluffykittycat I'd love to support the studio, but why should I pay them, if i get treated worse than someone who doesn't pay and "steals" the content instead
@rafal06 @fluffykittycat There is nothing more dangerous to corporations and the wealthy than an informed populace. That's why they're trying to get rid of libraries and books under the guise of "protecting the children." It's all a ploy.
Also, libraries with their free access to books are difficult to monetize, so "they have to go." :/
@tk @fluffykittycat this whole capitalism thing is getting out of hand
@rafal06 @fluffykittycat I recall hearing that the accumulation of huge amounts of wealth was one thing that occurred right before the fall of Rome. Today's billionaires are our version of the same.
I really feel like shit is really going to go down soon on multiple fronts.
@tk @fluffykittycat profits can't go up infinitely, it has to collapse eventually
@rafal06 @fluffykittycat So true. Expecting forever growth in general is honestly pretty stupid.
The scam that is fiat currency is going to collapse eventually, too.
