[realhackhistory@home]#Oh yes we have our new “you wouldn’t download a car”
Dr. Fortyseven 🥃 █▓▒░@realhackhistory Kinda surprised to see a DOS prompt, but then they go and forward slash it like Linux. LITERALLY UNPIRATABLE.
@realhackhistory Oh jesus, I just noticed the other end of it with a partial closed HTML tag.
This is just a taste of corruption and depravity that piracy brings into our homes, I guess. 😭
Viss@fortyseven @realhackhistory and you know it wasnt ai because ai would have at least got those parts right
Pseudo Nym@Viss @fortyseven @realhackhistory
You are right on the text, AI slop would have done that better.
But the image? Look at the hand holding the phone thingy. That looks pretty impressionistic AI image gen to me.
This ad gets more cursed the longer you look at it.
It's like a turducken of epic fail, on so many levels.
It almost wraps around to art, of a sort.
Steve Loughran@pseudonym @Viss @fortyseven @realhackhistory "lets do an ad campaign against illegal downloads now that the explosion in streaming services and a rise in unskippable adverte have made BitTorrent a thing again."
"Great! Who will do the art!"
"Oh, lets' just use an AI tool trained by downloading every image it could find and regurgitating some of it badly"
"Yes, that'll really show why downloading content without paying for it is wrong"

@pseudonym @Viss @fortyseven @realhackhistory the web site really comes down to "for safety put a raspberry pi under the TV, stream through that -and erase the SD card image every week"

🤣🤣🤣 *Dumps tea out of keyboard*
@elfin @pseudonym @Viss @fortyseven @realhackhistory without making any statements about the legitimacy of BitTorrent- can I just note that Steve Buscemi is absolutely the best character in Con Air.
Afte a film has been on TV as a used DVD, they should stick it online for free. But to do that give more choice for quality cinema -& reduce the value of the mediocrity which is available in the "legal" online services

Yep, I remember when streaming started up, piracy took a big dip because now you could access it cheaply and legally there wasn't really a reason to pirate. Then prices went up and other providers stepped in and you couldn't get it all in one place any more, and here we are.
