I think that’s how the 4k rips that exist are captured, but that the watermarking is embedded in the video or audio, without any known way of removing it.

If I understand how this works though, it should be a relatively easy fix. They just need to get some more device creds to spoof with.

Strange planet

Netflix 4K drm is apparently pretty solid, so almost nothing is available at that quality. I think I read that they have a watermarking system that allows them to identify who ripped it and ban the account.

There’s also something about their peak current being reduced with age, and in this use case, they don’t really need that peak current, so they really can stay useful for a long time in this use case

Welp, I tried reflecting on my original comment and how it makes me a nazi, but I’m just coming up blank.

Guess I’m just a nazi now. Remind me, what do the nazis think of brown people?

Let’s say you’re right, shouldn’t people try to stop other from going down that pipeline? Send a Destiny video or something.

But I don’t think you’re right, I’ve been just about at this same point for 15 years.

I love having conversations because I love deeply understanding things. I toy with ideas like little fidget toys, sometimes they end up being more interesting or useful and sometimes a friend tells me it’s dangerous and I put that idea down.

I’m curious, did you see what videos I posted? It’s a black guy advocating for class based social justice. If he’s wrong, if the ideas he’s espousing are dangerous, I’d honestly like to understand how.

… but “debate me bro” and “I’m just asking questions” means I can no longer debate or ask questions. Well, at least on the internet.

Thankfully I’ve got friends who know me, understand my intents, and also seem to enjoy having these conversations with me.

I’m literally punching down on an entire group of people, republicans.

Also, I don’t quite grasp all the rules of slurs. I’m not making a derogatory use of the term towards someone with a intellectual disability (also, that’s a term that’s starting to pick up the same “slur” vibes, just as retard did from originally being a medical term).

Am I allowed to use the term retard if I myself have a learning disability? What if I’m of some other demonstrably lower caste group of people in the American social order? Is that still punching down?

I’d honestly ask those questions, but then I’d be “just asking questions” so let’s just say those are rhetorical and we can just end the conversation here.

I thought I was just matching your snarky tone.

You know, it’s possible to be a leftist and still not agree 100% with the everything.

The response to my comment is precisely what I hate about the left. And yet, I’m still so much more aligned with the left that I could ever be with the right.

So because the right is a bunch of fucking retarded donkeys, the left is infallible. Got it.

It couldn’t be that I watched a talk like this:

And liked the ideas, but then see that it’s being used to call the speaker racist and attempts at silencing him. Plus the unwillingness to even have a conversation.

You vilify the idea of “just asking questions” to the point that no one can ask questions. That leaves me standing here, not understanding your position, but unwilling to blindly accept everything I’m told to think.

Sure, there are people who weaponize “just asking questions”, but is the solution really just to call every person with a contrary opinion a fucking nazi?

Edit: is anyone willing to tell me how the ideas in the first video are racist and worthy of silencing the person who speaks them?

Oh, no it is an everybody issue. It’s just what puts me off from people I otherwise frequently agree with.

I’m all for the idea of wokeness, but there are those that take it to an extreme. Those that would silence a black man making a honest case for color-blindness, calling him racist. Those that won’t put in any thought before declaring anyone who disagrees with them a racist/transphobe/xenophobe etc etc etc.

There is room for honest discussion and critical thinking, but there is this mob mentality ultraleft (and yea this exists in the right too) that seems incapable of critical thought and only capable of hating anything that opposes the groupthink.

And if you pay for it, you’re still the product…. Because it’s 2023 and fuck the consumers.
