Seriously? their attack against an asshole transphobe is… calling her tr*nny and being exactly as shitty as her?
That’s why it’s so juicy, they’re all such terrible people we don’t have to pick sides
Literally Jersey Shore for nerds… Why do we primates love trashy drama so much???
I don’t even pirate software anymore, just here to pass the popcorn.
What the fuck? First they call out Empress for actually being a man from Bulgaria. Then they drop a transphobic slur. Then they defend DRM and publishers.
I can understand supporting the developers and promoting buying software you enjoy when you can. But one of the big motivations for cracking software is software preservation and removing DRM that harms legit user experiences. So I say again, wtf?I have half a mind to start releasing cracks just so there’s 1 cracker who isn’t a fucking bigot.
EDIT: btw, didn’t Voksi get arrested back in 2018? And EMPRESS started releasing cracks in like 2019. So are we to believe that Voksi goes to jail for a year, and immediately comes out and starts cracking again, all without receiving another visit from the feds? Doubt.
EDIT2: lol here’s Voksi’s response: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/2218172
Fuck EMPRESS and SKIDROW, SKIDROW for dragging Voksi into the petty bullshit and both of them for their childish, edgleord bullshit.
I don’t get why people here are expecting pirates of all people to be polite company.
Seems like no cracker or repacker is ever mentally sane. Like, defending DRM and trans-slurs? Really? Not like Empress is normal either but wtf
Most of the old scene thought of cracking DRM in games as a challange within themselves, and did it for the competition. Skidrow’s thoughts align with this mindset. You can’t blame skidrow for that.
Yeah, the anti-gay and anti-trans commentary really made me repulse.
