Even if the internet dies.
Sneaker net was here before . And will be here afterwards..

how about fucking don't? Local Libraries are our friends!
-
It would be a funny comment if that were not a very real attack used against libraries.
-
you got Blu Rays from before Steamboat Willy?
-
We'll just start doing what we did before the internet: go to each other homes and copy from their source.
-
Many libraries have large DVD collections.
-
Keep a 13-inch TV around?
-
Meanwhile NZB will still exist and never targeted. Funny how they hate torrents so much when NZB is superior and easier.

My vcr and all old consoles actually work fine on my shitty insignia flat-screen. But I'd rather play on my crt or projector tv.
-
You got it backwards. The Sith are the corpos and the resistance is piracy.
-
I like that blu-ray looked at the DVD logo and said “we can italicize more than that”
-
Blu-ray still has functional DRM. DVDs only, thank you. With backup on magnetic.
-
I already have more media than I could watch in a lifetime on a home server, if we lose new media I can happily enjoy the old stuff for decades to come

Casual reminder, Sony and Intel tried to tether Blu-ray discs to SGX DRM, which was killed just a few years after they introduced the standard, rendering all of your SGX DRM Blu-rays unplayable on PC. They disabled it so quickly, because people could use Intel SGX DRM for remote code execution in your machine, below the operating system and kernel level.
Also, if you have one of the CPUs which still has SGX DRM, congratulations, you have a hardware Trojan! Digital restrictions management is a cancer because look at what it does in reality, vs. what they say. Who came up with this?

I'm not really sure what you mean. Yoda is responding to Obi-Wan who had just said "That boy is our last hope". Yoda was referring to the fact that there is another Skywalker (Leia). So in this context, Luke would be physical media, Leia would be piracy, and the streaming services would be the Sith/Empire.

That's a great point because my first thought was Iron Man, which would also be believable. XD
-
Because I'm uncreative, I'm just going to steal the joke from Sseth.
Because the vehicle in From Software's game, Elden Ring, is called "Torrent", I can't wait for the next From Soft character "Punjabi Codex Denuvo, pre-cracked Novirus [MeGusta]".

instructions unclear, set fire to my entire DVD collection
-
I highly suggest that you make ripped backups. I learned the hard way, I digitised my grandfather's CD collection and some of his DVDs, some of which were already damaged beyond repair. Some of his broken DVDs are less than 20 years old. They are not scratched, they are in mint condition.
