So you logged into all their social media and changed their passwords and recovery emails right? I don’t just want access now, I want it in perpetuity.

Someones graphic design degree was absolutely worth it that day.
These are what we want to make, not advertisements selling products people don’t need, let me illustrate elderly animals!
Brother I won the argument when you started typing, I really don’t care to engage on this topic anymore, have a nice day.
Alright, have fun being an angry little whatever you are. I have better things to do than warn you about your car burning up, enjoy the rest of your day, keep full coverage on your cars or something. Have a nice one.
Yeah I have youtube too I can watch car crashes, not sure what point you think you’re making there. Do you wear a seat belt? Do you drink and drive?
“I ignore clear warnings because I haven’t personally experienced the issue so it must not exist.” - You
How do you feel about vaccinations? Is that something you do?
“Something else is more dangerous therefore the less dangerous thing doesn’t exist.” - You
They put stickers on every pump everywhere warning about static electricity causing fires. Do you think they just put those on there for fun? I bet you’re not vaccinated either, idiot.
It’s Saturday morning where I am so I imagine a lot of us are “roasting bowls” lol.
Magazine is just the nomenclature in the fediverse, this is a “magazine” not a subreddit.
I back up pretty much everything, I guess a lot of the confusion is based on my phrasing, I was considering a RAID in your closet a physical backup while obviously the media there is being stored digitally.
Do you not back that thing up once you have it?
edit: it’s assumed you pirated it initially as this is a piracy magazine.
It’s weird to me that apparently nobody backs up their pirated stuff and just assumes they’ll able to torrent it again in 10 years.
That’s what in saying, you store it on media you control. If you need to migrate it every decade or so to avoid loss/degradation so be it. Unless you physically have that data it’s not yours and access can be lost at any time.
How do you backup the game you pirated so you’ll still have it in 20 years.
I didn’t say anything about purchasing the media only that a physical copy is the only way to ensure you retain access. Online checks are trivial to bypass (see: them being bypassed constantly.)
How do you back up the games you’ve pirated if not to a physical media? Further “physical media” doesn’t mean “only dvds” but means “hdds” as well. Some of you people are just so eager to argue and correct someone you don’t even think about the comment you’re replying to, have fun with that.
edit: I’m not arguing against piracy, I’m arguing for making backups and not assuming that torrent (or infrastructure to activate software) will always be there. Unless you control the data (physically) it’s not yours.
Physical media is the only way to ensure you retain access to it.
I like this idea as it could all be done in-browser client side.
Huge agree about pushing their merch! They’re shameless. I used to watch every day for years but stopped a long time ago; when every episode became a food episode. Their podcast (Ear Biscuits) is a bit better, it’s more them talking about things long form, just being 40+ year old fairly normal (if not very successful) guys. They’ve talked about quitting GMM, I think once their various kids are done with school they’ll pack it up (the main show at least). They both have other passions but it’s really difficult to stop when you’ve built a successful, working media company with your childhood best friend, even if they’re both ready to retire.
They actually bought Smosh and brought Ian and Anthony back, and then sold Smosh back to them a few years later. That was a really cool move to me and and got them a HUGE pass in my book, they’re stand-up guys.
Full disclosure: despite not watching much of their video content anymore I still went and saw them on their most recent tour (about a month ago, it was a gift) and had a great time. They did some of their games but modified them to be specific to my state, did a food ranking with some local-foods, and of course had a couple musical numbers.
