@MK2boogaloo@djsumdog@icedquinn The BSA literally kicks in doors and then puts a gun to your head and if you can't recite the license key, they pull the trigger. This is where the Columbine kids got the idea.

If you buy a pre-built machine or a laptop and it comes with Windows and a little license sticker, sure. If you build one or you buy a refurb, no. (FSE's server had Windows on it when it arrived at my house, it tried to boot Windows. The horror.) If you get an x220 from Amazon and it comes with Windows 10 preinstalled, you almost certainly did not get a legit copy of Windows. (If there's a WHQL sticker, you have indirectly paid a tax but that's stretching it: you did not buy a Windows license.)
Obviously, just in case the BSA notices this thread, the Server 2k3 image that I boot in qemu once a year to play Civ2 is actually a fully licensed and legit copy of Windows Server 2003 and I bought it at the store. I was only joking a couple of weeks ago when I said "pirating MSDOS 5 took less time than loading most web pages" and I have never pirated software. free_software_alternatives.jpg monopolish.png
@iska@raccoon Is it really a lie if I made it up, recorded myself repeating it, got completely hammered, and looped the audio in my headphones until I woke up the next day believing it to be true?
@sjw Apparently there's some weird shit going on with the container for the opus file. I can get ffplay to play it. The AAC does not work at all: "Audio object type 42 is not implemented."
