You’ve been pirated by a smooth striminal.
100% of Facebook employees are striminals who downloaded 80 TB of books from Libgen.
81tb actually.
Honestly im not even angery at Facebook for illegally torrenting 81tb of books from Libgen, im pissed that Facebook torrented 81tb of books from libgen and then didnt seed (apperantly they didnt want to be caught but they could have used a vpn like the rest of us).
wtf is this real???
Offer a better service for a better price.
Streaming services don’t sell content, they sell convenient access to content, and it’s been getting less convenient as time goes on. So less people feel like it’s worth paying them.
Also just overall shittier. Every time I stream something these days, it’s pretty much guaranteed to pause/buffer or atomatically lower the quality even over fiber. I’m not going to pay for a subpar product.
they “watch what they want, when they want, where they want, and they don’t pay for it.”
Damn. Are these guys trying to sell me on being a striminal now?
Whoever wrote that was definitely giggling to themselves as they were typing.
I’m pretty sure it was written by Strong Bad.
I’m a download a car kinda guy, so a downiminal?
I’m an anime kind of guy, so an animal?
Sigh. Furries.

I’m a millennial, but I don’t stream any pirated content whatsoever.
I download it from Usenet or sometimes torrents in its entirety. That way I don’t have to worry about the site I use getting shut down.
Oh boy here I go strimming again
streaming content without paying for it
- Watching TV at a friend’s house
- Watching videos off a PLEX server or other private local network
- Watching freemium with ad blockers
I’m sure I’m missing a few more. But there are so many ways to watch - even without explicit piracy - that the MPAA considers should be deemed illegal because they’re not getting paid per viewer.
- remembering that one scene one day after the licence of that show ran out
I’m Gen X and I’ve been pirating since we bought a second VCR when I was a kid and used it to duplicate tapes and then return them to the rental store. Then they added copy protection, so we got a dual-deck VCR that beat it. Then DVDs came out, so we got a dual-deck DVD copier.
Did I mention that my dad was a film historian?
He also would sometimes xerox entire books for himself. And he got himself a CD duplicator and a cassette duplicator later on and started doing the same thing with CDs and audiobooks he got from the library.
Miss you, dad. You would love torrenting if you could figure it out.
Only a little
Huh…
Ohhh you NASty NASty striminal
I’ve got another 80Tb on the way. Entirely because you’re the first random person I’ve seen who has more than me.
I didn’t post the size of my games and adult content volumes. 😜
DAMN IT
I started with 28TB, plenty for movies and TV shows… right?
Then I started running local AI and I feel like I need triple the storage.
I’m not saying all my problems in life would be fixed with more storage. But I just need one more hard drive.
After all, why shouldn’t I use just one more SATA power splitter…
I swear I saw an article a while back of someone who set up a multi-SD card reader with an obnoxious number of SD cards as an external drive. I can’t find it now but I think that’s the only way I could afford that much storage.
Saves up that $20-$500 a month you’d spend on steaming and keep an eye on shucks.top for when prices hit all time lows.
Typically around Black Friday and other common sale event that hide main steam media.
Either use them as is or shuck them (crack them open) and install as internal hard drives.
There are guides around setting up these things, look for a tutorial that mentions Plex, Radarr or Sonarr and go with what works best for your available hardware.
And you too will be a data hoarder in few short months.
Oh I’m a data hoarder. Just with 12TB right now. The trouble is I have to double everything to expand the NAS at my friend’s house that I’m doing encrypted off-site backups to…
You gotta pump those numbers
that’s a lot of streaming bro, better clear the cache
Meta torrented terabytes of pirated books for their AI, and they’re the 4th biggest company in US
I fucking love committing strime. I fucking love committing strime.
I don’t want to do anything else but commit strime all damn day.
I FUCKING LOVE COMMITTING STRIME
It’s strimin’ time!
Take that strime, you shit.
Yar, I don’ be likin’ this new diction, “striminal.” I’ll be a pirate ‘till me dyin’ day.
