Buffalobuffalo@reddthat.comto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•It's funny how google pretends the music on YouTube isn't straight up piracy and everyone just goes along with itEnglish1241·2 years agoBuying an SD card full of Roms is piracy, that’s why you have to buy it from Chinese companies and not walk down to the Walmart.
YouTube has agreements with the record companies to pay them for money generated through music uploaded to YouTube. For music where they don’t have an agreement the DMCA means that the uploaded need to verify they have the copyright to thing they upload. Otherwise no social media or file hosting sites could exist.

What used to upset me was getting to a point in a game where you feel losing in inevitable and no decisions you can make will allow you to win. Yet, the game is not over it might have 30 minutes left.
One thing to try is play different games. Monopoly is probably one of the worst games for this you can spend 2 hours slowly losing all your properties, just don’t play it. Personally I like games like ticket to ride, where a large part of the final score is hidden. Because you don’t know exactly where you stand the game it makes it easier to believe you have a path to victory, or at least not last place.

Buffalobuffalo@reddthat.comto World News@lemmy.ml•Blue supermoon: World gazes at rare lunar phenomenonEnglish23·2 years ago“Rare lunar phenomenon” that happens every couple of years, and is only relevant because there are 27ish days between a new moon and 30-31 days in a month. The moon is cool and I like looking at it, but a “blue moon” is a quirk of our calendar not the moon being interesting.

Buffalobuffalo@reddthat.comto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are some small, pocketable/keychainable items that are worth carrying everywhere you go?183·2 years agoLeatherman and Gerber are the 2 major brands in the multi tool world and have been for 30+ years. The posters are definitely not ads, just people into EDC who are used to people knowing those brands.
Being able to modify a video game or reverse engineer a bit of code does not make that application open source.
Maybe if a company published the finished video and the unedited footage under some open license.
