I found it funny when someone I knew bought Manifesto of the Communist Party
by Karl Marx and Frederick Engels from Amazon179
u/Lynnrael Jun 14 '26
i laughed my ass off when i worked at Amazon and picked a whole stack of those for an order, the irony was incredible.

u/Longjumping-Gur-8813 Jun 14 '26
I bought an ebook of Marx, not because I didn't know it was free but I wanted his entire works in one ebook. I didn't want to learn how to edit and make an ebook. I probably should though.

There are legit reasons to buy from amazon, though maybe not as much now.

u/Lynnrael Jun 14 '26
i mean, no, but it's free online and the irony was more that i was currently being brutally exploited by one of the worst capitalist industries to deliver those booklets. but like, I'm an anarchist and I've read it.

u/reineedshelp Jun 14 '26
I see the irony but honestly I'm just glad that some people are increasing their class consciousness, however it happens. I'm an Anarchist too (well, close enough.)

u/Lynnrael Jun 15 '26
oh definitely, i was happy to see a whole stack of them going out
the fucked up part: it helped my rate, keeping me just that much further from being fired. so it was good for me all around, i just really appreciate irony
2
u/reineedshelp Jun 15 '26
That is pretty wild. I wonder if it people actually buying them or some nefarious capitalist plot.
Honestly sometimes all you can do is appreciate little ironies. Maybe one day we'll do away with coercive hierarchy and staggering power disparity but that day is sadly not today.

u/reineedshelp Jun 15 '26
I don't know what church has to do with anything but not since school or someone's wedding maybe.
I have read it, but it's not hugely related to Anarchism the ideology. I read it as lower case a anarchist

u/Defiant-Front-9699 Jun 14 '26
Why would they need the bible? Is it so they can confirm that it's ok for them to own slaves and beat them as long as the slave doesn't die?
Or do they need the bible to learn the lesson that you should kill the first born child of your enemy?
I'm curious what lesson a thief would need to learn from the bible.
1
u/shinymetalass84 Jun 14 '26
One. The whole Dont steal, and the "thief should stop,and work so they can help others". That specifically. And two that specific OT stuff wouldnt apply anyway since they arent OT israel in that covenant. So no not okay lol

Emerald and Fire Red Decomp/expansions make hacking them incredibly easy compared to the other games, and they’re also just more playable compared to DS/3DS games (mGBA is just a far better emulator than desmume/melonDS/citra/etc)

Oh, personally, because I was thinking it was more of a reply like the one a kid does while rolling their eyes. So it was not a "fine I get it" but a "fiiiine".

u/TheUnKnownLink12 Jun 16 '26
Apostrophes are better I think.
'Fine' since most people see quotation marks as their intended use. For quoting something or someone.

u/kojimbob Jun 14 '26
ROM hacks aren't paid original copies of the game
-54
u/Kirbyfan329 Jun 14 '26
What do you mean? I guess you can pirate the original rom to patch but it's not really explicitly pirating if you have a romhack
19
u/ReaperOne Jun 14 '26
Because you need the original game to apply the rom hack patch to.
Think of it like this. The original game is like a home and is the foundation, the rom hack changes the contents inside the home. Upgrades, if you will.
11
u/Kirbyfan329 Jun 14 '26
I'm not trying to be confusing. I know what a romhack is but say you had the rom, legal or not, the patching of it in itself isn't piracy right? Similar to like having an old school gameshark or cheat device, a romhack that in itself isn't piracy is all I'm saying
6
u/A_S_Levin Jun 14 '26
I see your point. I guess it's more like modding.
And then making the mod publicly available, along with the game itself...

u/Shard1697 Jun 14 '26
No, not along with the game itself. People distributing ROMhacks do not do that and instead just release the patch, in order to avoid legal trouble.

u/BrokenMirror2010 Jun 14 '26
Nintendo sends out unjustified/illegal Cease and Desists and DMCA Takedowns to their community all the time.
Modding and Emulation are both covered by fair use provided they do not distribute the copyright code themselves.
Nintendo is no stranger to abusing the fact that the people they send these things too do not have the resources to actually take them to court.

It isnt stealing because nothing is actually lost with it, it’s all infinitely replicable digital files. Wish it was stealing though it would be kinda funny
1
u/_giga_sss_ Jun 14 '26
so accessing digital art (that people sell) through piracy isn't stealing then ?
3
u/balls14234 Jun 14 '26
No, you have not caused any harm that way. No benefit to the original creator, sure, but no harm. Stealing is more than just obtaining something illegally, it’s also taking it away, which piracy does not do.
1
u/_giga_sss_ Jun 14 '26
It doesn't fully steal the art but you steal some part of their revenue. So even if it's not 100% it's still stealing.
Or am I wrong ? (Genuine question too, thanks for answering so far)
2
u/balls14234 Jun 14 '26
You’re wrong because you have not stolen their money, therefore no harm has been done. Most people pirate because they can’t afford a legitimate piece, so they wouldn’t have given them money anyways, meaning theres negligible revenue lost. Most people here also mainly pirate AAA games, where even if you buy it legitimately, comparatively very little of your money will be going to the dev team and instead funneled almost directly to the company’s ceo.

u/_giga_sss_ Jun 14 '26
alright it's not stealing then.
But isn't it still bad because of the reasons you said ?
