Good to know VGA and parallel port devices are safe.
Nah, they’ll just sue you if you’re using VGA instead of HDMI since it obviously means you are trying to crack DRM and thus running afoul of DMCA.
Everyone loves listening to their favorite purchased movie while watching a black screen
Nuh-uh, sound has to go over HDMI as well. You may only partake in your own culture through DRM-approved channels.
This got me thinking, could you still get an abortion in the bad parts of the US if you trademarked your DNA, and claimed that the condom breaking violated DMCA?
You know, show up at the doctors with a ton of papers headlined
CEASE AND DESIST
Or at least get child support out of Durex?

It really feels like no matter what community you look at on Lemmy, every 3rd post is Windows bad Linux good. It’s honestly a bit exhausting. And I’ve been running Linux for over a decade…
For real lol makes me feel a little alienated. I just want to play games on my computer
Sadly, you should feel alienated. When you choose to use proprietary software, you further the injustice that it creates over society. Windows is so shamefully harmful, even outside of just being proprietary that choosing it in 2024 is choosing the side of unjust power, and you should be rightfully alienated for making that decision.
And it’s your fault if it happens to you, because we sent you EMAILS telling you it was going to happen!
Lol, SCSI
You’ve got to give Microsoft credit for their dedication to backwards compatibility.
That’s a term I haven’t heard in a very, very long time. I keep one in a drawer with my Sound Blaster PCMCIA card.
