I do not owe kindness to those who oppress others. I will assume good faith and intelligence until proven otherwise.

  • Blu-rays are purposely made to be combersome to read and use without explicit permission from the Blu-Ray commission.

    Blu-rays aren’t DVDs, each release has a unique encryption on it that you either break, or use a program to scan and break for you with public listings of known keys.

    VLC would need to ask the Blu-Ray Group to open up their software on how encoding and decoding works, and they never will.

    Sony gets a cut for every single Blu-ray, it’s why you need to install the app for Xbox when the gaming console can naturally play Blu-ray discs for games. Microsoft doesn’t want to fork over more money to it’s main competitor, and part of why they backed HD DVD.

    Is it VLCs fault? Not really. If they had a lot of money and man hours they could maybe work something out. But DVDs are child’s play to figure out compared to Blu-Rays. That’s on purpose.



















  • Also got banned from db0 for calling out their recent trend of being tankie sympathizers and hosting .ml users to subvert instance blocks.

    You’re not banned from here, we’re not Tankie sympathizers, and I still want at least proof of one account being an active alt of a .ml user. You’ve said this for over 2 weeks and not given any citations.

    Edit: still not proof given after 2 weeks, and now over 2 days for this place. SS is just lying about us, because she got butthurt about being banned from one place for her behavior.
