Spesifically it seems like a lot of spam/porn users have floodded the comment section with porn. I only got one from my instance; but blocked and reported it 🤷

yea, preserving deviantart is not a focus like anywhere as far as I know, and hopefully the artist themselves do, but it’s vague. It does match with how historically art has usually been a big job to try and preserve once the artist is dead.

For preserving music (since you mention bandcamp) I recommend supporting your local library; an here’s a list of some US music libraries. https://www.american-music.org/page/Libraries

Most nations do have some type of music archive as well, and it’s not like software which faces legal issues for historical preservation.

Very cool, but why not just use qbittorrents search engine? 🤔

I would say mixed-marked advokates fit into left wing as well, social democray and so forth.

You know left “lite”

Just from mihon page count

what? whaddya mean? the fact that it exists?

https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2023/05/the-solid-legal-theory-behind-nintendos-new-emulator-takedown-effort/

or the fact that nintendo doesn’t want it to “spread” Come here without defending big megacorpo or leave please

they are going after the developers that make it possible to play your emulated game…

they aren’t selling all their games, and never have. ever wanted to play earthbound? you can’t legally…

if you want to blame me for “rehashing arguments” then maybe look where you are first, and then read my comment. this isn’t a place for respecting copyright, or corporations fighting against preservation.

feel free to check out my other comment on this post. where I link to nintendo using pirated roms and selling it back to us.

point is to stop giving the rich ass company any benefit of doubt.

how did lemmy piracy suddenly turn to defending nintendo…

nintendo pulls rom sites down, sure - it’s their shit (https://www.pcworld.com/article/402404/nintendo-suit-rom-emulation-game-preservation.html)

Nintendo is using roms from these sites to sell to consumers within their own “ecosystem” (https://www.eurogamer.net/did-nintendo-download-a-mario-rom-and-sell-it-back-to-us)

Not even close to all of nintendos titles are avaliable on their online stores, and the mini-snes or whatever did not have even close to all their titles.

point is. Nintendo is NOT preserving their own games. And they sue anyone doing anything like preserving it for the public.

They’ve sued multiple times emulator developers, even when it’s completely legal.

(it is 100% legal to emulate, and make emulators.)

Due to the fact that a court case is expensive AF, this usually just kills the emulator group.

we’re mad at nintendo precisely because they do not, themselves preserve games. While they try to sue emulation and game preservers, they also use their ROMs and emulations to sell games to the consumer.

if you’ve gotten this far then I recommend picking up a used or super-cheap android phone to root it yourself 😅 it’s probably easier than to give a walkthrough with a stranger, might also have some mistrust

I keep the stuff I download and seed it until I run out of room, I have a TB hdd for movies and such; and since I download like huge files, I usually delete stuff if I don’t care about it a lot

didn’t 1337x have a cryptominer that wasn’t removed by the moderators last year?

no offense, but why would you want that? I main firefox, as it is the superior browser - the only non-chromium browser which in my experience is better for ad blocking, less tracking and a just as quick browsing experience.

what’s the “plus” side for this premium browser?

who is “publishers”? I mean, is this a consortium or smth?

piracy is a service problem~

also of note, they never account for the fact that piracy increases sales in some aspects, without piracy - anime = small. buying physical books when they come on sale for a series you read online? yes, I have a nice collection. Merch, and so forth.

Are they going to stop printing it too? Scanlations is still a thing 😅

Piracy isn’t just internet sites that you stream shit on. Piracy is DVDs you bought or copied from a friend.

your premise bases itself on a very small timeframe.

(I also have no clue about software piracy getting harder - videogames you mean?)

there is nothing in Yuzu that Nintendo has copyright to. Emulators are also precedentially legal.

so yes, how dare they want “their” copyrighted material not “stolen”…

libraries!
