Sure, but in this case they definitely are a hacker still since they did write code to achieve this.

The comment I am responding to says that people should be amenable to lockpicking because it’s “hacker” news. But he’s using the wrong meaning of hacker. So the argument doesn’t hold.

It is but one of the straws that broke the camels back.

There is also VidHub which I've been playing around with. It's also paid but it's cheaper than Infuse.

I sympathize completely. My Apple TV 4K 2nd gen is a laggy, unresponsive piece of crap after the tvOS 26 update.


Doesn't really fulfill the same niche Soundcloud does. Most content on SC is non-commercial or just simply not available on any streaming service.

Lidarr relies on people ripping this music, and also adding the metadata to Musicbrainz, which just simply isn't going to happen for most SC uploads.


I thought for a moment while reading these comments that somehow SC had completely changed in terms of content and type of user. People seem to think it's a Spotify-like or something. I consumed essentially audio shitposts and DJ mix sets on SC, stuff that you're not going to find published in a pirateable form...


And that's exactly why Steam was not included in the Australian bans.


This is how it's implemented on iPads without Face ID (like the Air)


And Macs.


Jellyfin is a fork of Emby. Can't speak for Plex.


>even though Valve wanted Source2 to be a VR platform

I don't think this is true. The first Source2 game "released" was Dota 2, and currently it's used for CS2 and Deadlock as well.


Fair point. Maybe I should've said SteamVR environments instead, it never took off like SourceSDK did, partially due to incomplete tools. SteamVR as a whole is very healthy though.


What's the point of prosecuting users?


That's how you get a cooperating witness against their dealers.

Also, it's illegal.
