This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

The hard part is having enough storage to pirate a $60 game a million times.

I just use btrfs duplication so it’s easy and doesn’t waste additional space. Pirates of old used caves near an X, but risk of must. I don’t use X because of musk.

Does it count as a pirated copy if it's deduped? 🤔

Just because the datablocks are deduplicated the filenames would be uniqe.

But would that mean that a symlink is also a pirated copy? 😄

[–] sep@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Probably yes. ;)
