      If a tree falls in a forest, but nobody heard or saw it, did really fall?

      If you pirated media, but never saw it, did you really pirate it?

          Does it count if you barely watched/played it?

          Way I see it, if I'm over 1:1, I'm owed more than I owe. You're welcome, and/or, where can I pick up my check?

            I think the total cost for me would've probably been like $5000 (USD) at least. Like at least 100 movies. 150 TV shows, 50 games.

              Pirscy has its negatives, anything ive spent money on ive been compelled to use, piracy ill build up a library of barely touched software, doing myself a disservice not learning/using them, but they feel less imporrtant if they can be gotten free, only really applies to the initial learning phase but most stuff I pirate I dont get past that phase

                  Ive spent hella time watching garbage I wouldve never bought but watched it because it was free, wont get that time back lol, many games ill never play because I pirated them and didnt even try them, but that just made them feel like they could be played whenever, and since the only cost was the time it took to downlaod/install I was never rushing to open them

                      Nice try, glowie

                      I wouldn't use that term, it has a... problematic history:

                      https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/glowie

                      Etymology

                      From glow +‎ -ie. Originated by Terry Davis, who stated in a 2017 video that "CIA [N-Slur] glow in the dark", implying that they are conspicuous. The term "glowie" would become popular on the 4chan /pol/ board around 2019.

                      I don't agree with the sentiment that a word used by one guy next to a slur they also used imparts a derogatory meaning to the word as well. If this were the case, we would have a problem with a lot more words.

                      If someone said "F-slurs shine like a rainbow", that doesn't make the words shine or rainbow derogatory.

                      Furthermore with the contextual usage of glowie considered - if it is derogatory, then its usage shows that its derogatory to members of the CIA rather than people of color.

                      However if people continue to cite glowie as a slur for people of color, then people might start to use it in that context, and then it becomes a slur for people of color.

                      Therefore I would recommend not citing the use of the word in this way because all it can do is eventually add a derogatory connotation that doesn't currently exist outside of being next to a slur during one usage or the creation of it.

                          I mean, that's is the primary use of torrents, right? Right? I mean, who would download a car. Surely nobody would do that... 🤭
