Your prudery and moralism bores the hell out of me https://randomrantdispenser.neocities.org/rant04-2024-07-18

I tried the link in another browser that is not logged on lemmy and the links were there… the blog name is “apocalyptic head” and the tag “just art”, so I presume they are censoring blogspot


:O
Here they are normal so I guess it’s your instance, perhaps it censors blogspot links? try to see this post through my instance https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/64220369


A mix of artstation, instagram and devianart profiles for modern artists, a few with their own personal sites, and online galleries and art wiki for older artists… I have thousands of random art I liked saved on my HDD, and I used to share them randomly on this blog (which was a backup of a Facebook page but included content that got zucked) https://apocalyptichead.blogspot.com/search/label/%23 Just Art
(and here there’s a list of the artists I had posted so far https://apocalyptichead.blogspot.com/p/art.html - but I had thousands more pictures to post before dropping Facebook and that Google blog)


haha been there, however I did succeed on finding it and it was either 1337x or ext.to
it sucks they don’t have -term and “term” to refine search


Yep, hate when I want to follow some project and they link you to X, Reddit and Discord lol


The other day I was writing in my notebook and then I opened it later to check, and everything that I wrote was there! If someone could get their hands on my notebook, they could read all my notes!


To people downvoting: are you also mad that Valve/Epic/PSN/etc have to follow GDPR data regulations for EU citizens and keep representatives there, or is sovereignty only bad when a non–first-world country dares to claim it?


Countries do this way more often than you think… they have always done that with movies preventing official releases or releasing edited versions, and as for games tons have localized versions since ever, from censorship of nudity in Japanese games in the USA market to censorship of Nazi flags in games in Germany and even LGBT references in tons of Eastern countries. I’d love if piracy exploded because fuck them billion dollar companies, but they usually just change a few art assets and that’s it.
What type of content you fear your government may consider risky? Is someone there in a paranoia of video games causing violence?
Unless they would be banning stuff like GTA, Call of Duty and Battlefield entirely because of violence, I really doubt gamers would go out of their way in enough numbers to cause any ruckus just because they absolutely have to play the version of the game that has an LGBT flag in some building or certain character is transgender.


That’s a very common and very reasonable request, and given the size of Turkey, I don’t think they’d prefer to lose the whole market there instead of having a lawyer in the country to deal with local legal requests.
Only when it’s companies run by manchildren, like X and Rumble, they go on the internet to cry about censorship and shit when they pikachu-face-discover they have to follow a country’s laws to operate in that country.
ps: You are already not buying games when you pay for them on Steam.

Amelia wasn’t AI-generated, she was literally goverment-generated for a stupid game saying you should mind your own business instead of watching and sharing content online or you can be arrested (people are just using AI to create more art with the character, but the character was created by the government). In the game the content was anti-immigration stuff and Amelia the girl trying to get the main character to get involved, so some dumbass just gave them a waifu lol
The game however basically tells you have to choose between being a racist or accepting 1984-surveillance (which UK is already doing anyway). Really great government propaganda.


I have no idea how it works, we have two main brands, Duosat and Azamerica, I found a fake Azamerica shop here https://azamerica-brasil.com/ you can see they have several models (the models are real, just the shop is a scam [the prices are way way off :P], as it’s illegal you need to find the right person to buy from on Whatsapp or Telegram). I used to be on the Duosat forum and they have a team working on hardware, software and the streaming, but they moved to a Telegram group some years ago and I never joined.


I found a video of a guy showing a model similar to mine, he shows the streaming (the UI is crap, but hey, it’s free lol)… watching the video I just remembered, you can also access a lot of random public cameras around the world, they should add the hacked Flocks to the list https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDfQoAtc9GM
It doesn’t show him exploring satellites though (he is just on the StarOne C2/C4 menu), although kinda useless to try satellites from other countries since the channels are going to be on a foreign language and there won’t be subtitles.


I don’t use IPTV though, you have to pay a monthly fee to use, I just bought a satellite decoder and I can get any channel from any satellite my dish can reach, and the groups that sell those give you free access to their private streaming they update constantly with new releases… I got mine in 2018 or 2019 I think, at the time IPTV was like BRL$20 a month and the decoder BRL$800


lol, that’s about the number of IPTV subscribers you’d find in a Brazilian city with 5k people :P
I’ve seen some pretty funny cam records, people that would be filming the top of other people’s heads half of the time, random talking and laughter, cam being dropped or the person not noticing it was now pointed at the front sit instead of the screen… and there was a curious thing when those betting mafias started, they started flooding the internet with a lot of cam records directly from the projection room, so they had good quality as framing goes but audio was shitty, and most of those seem to have come from Russia and they’d have audio and subtitles in random languages (with your local subtitles burned in the file over the subtitles on the theater screen) and tons of ads, especially 1xbet… but hey, you could watch the latest Marvel or Star Wars movie on the internet same day of release.
