YAASSS content:

• Ads/media where 'the man' tries to appeal to young people using their vernacular in a lame, pandering way

• Ads/media that tries to appeal to young people but is self-aware and/or well executed

Ratchet content:

• Children's media and commercials for children's products that don't involve inter-generational pandering (this isn't a place to collect all advertising and media that's aimed at kids) Nickelodeon/Cartoon Network/Disney/etc.

• Text messages, emails, PMs, or other forms of interpersonal communication not sent as an advertisement

Seriously, they make it seem like this is new. Been a pirate since the early days of Napster. Hell, was pirating DOS games on floppy in the early 90's. Video stream pirating is just the latest form, and won't be the last.

Of course not. I'm a law abiding citizen, I'm not smart or sexy enough to commit copyright infringement.

Laughs in Streamio + Torrentio

I had that, but I haven't had time to fix it since real-debrid stopped working.

[–] YungOnions@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

It's working fine for me. The number of torrents went way down, but picked up and are nearly back to normal now 👍

I'm a streamennial, but I know a few streazoomers, and also few bootreams.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Ok but that sounds based as hell

100% of GenX'ers in this household.

Strongly reccomend using Jellyfin for your media libraries. Even if you don't have a dedicated server and just want to watch on a pc, it works better than VLC.

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Doesn't jellyfin require connecting to a server to even work though? Most VLC features work anywhere without any connection, obviously streaming would require a connection still.

Awwww, that's so cute how they side-stepped "... what they want, how they want, "; You know? That bit of it all that we can't buy their way because they won't sell it to us.

[–] vane@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Sorry but I'm streamennial not striminal.

[–] peregrin5@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Who is "we"? I have to know who came up with this amazing addition to the English language.

[–] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Looks fake, but still funny af.

Yeah, I used a modified Spotify client without ads, uninterrupted skipping, etc. to set random songs as my alarm. I download what I like through various sources, music wise, however to find new artists I use YouTube Music so have a client for that too (I have random tastes, and over the years got into artists who never really made it big at all: YT is good for the very obscure stuff most folks would call "people screaming into the mic" which, I mean, I guess it is but it could be music too..)

[–] highfiveconnoisseur@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

What Spotify client do you use?

[–] JadenSmith@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

I forget the one exactly, however it's usually posted on the Mobilism forums by the dev. That site has a good amount of apps with ads and such stripped.

People actually pay for content?

[–] samus12345@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So what are Gen Xers who do this called?

My posse don't walk around like striminals or flex like big gorillas

[–] Shou@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Only 69%? Nice. Thought it would be way higher though. I mean. The youngest of us are almost 30 now.

[–] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 year ago

They are saying that like it is a bad thing.

Bad for shareholders maybe.
