Oh, don’t worry, I’m not pirating you shit, I use it to train AI therefore I’m allowed to do whatever I want. It’s for AI you see.
I wonder if they are testing out how far they can go
So i am a pirate, indeed.
ESA can go fuck themselves.
Another day of me wondering what the fuck the Americans are even doing? Like it’s completely incomprehensible, it follows no logic.
Go ahead fuckos, start taking away the circuses too. See how that’ll work out for ya.

Wow, an industry advocate organisation saying stuff that just proves they have no idea what the industry is actually doing, or what’s actually good for them?
Not really shocked.
Nah they are lobbyists. They know what they are doing. They know that legislators have no clue what it all means and have no time to find out what these lobbyists are saying is true. It’s just typical lawyer talk subterfuge
How the fuck can Microsoft say that a private Minecraft server is piracy?
Where the fuck did people download the Minecraft server version?
What next, Costco is going to arrest me for
tryingstealing the free samples?Microsoft didn’t say shit. Some idiot from the ESA did.
Some idiot represents Microsoft as a member of the ESA so Microsoft really should clear this up if they don’t want it reflecting badly on them. Of course, that’s if they even care and aren’t going to use this as backdoor to stop supporting private servers.
Microsoft isn’t saying shit now because they want to see how this bullshit pans out.
You can’t even get away with a quadruple homicide these days
What has the world come to
unless you’re a head of state, then you can kill however many people as you want.
and rape. Don’t forget the rape.
So … not ESA, the European Space Agency, founded in 1975 then.
Wow, fuck the European Space Agency! >:(
Yea, fuck European Speedrunner Assembly
The European Science Academy did what!?
I can’t believe the European Sexhavers Association would do this!
What’d those fuckers do?
The only reason they say this is almost certainly because they have a plan to start moving that direction. So a shadow of things to come. Like when I whip it out in front of a single-point light source.
For a moment I was confused because why would the European Space Agency have a problem with Minecraft?
I host a server on my home lab and just play solo, all this time I was a criminal and didn’t know
What is the context here? Meme with no article or explanation of what is going on.
Europeans think they’re in space.
And 'Muricans think the only space that exists or is important is the US (which is dumb as fuck).
Everyone is in space
Yeah. Don’t tell them though. They like to feel special.
when you find out please let me know too
There are other news links, but this is one I found on the front page, for context: https://lemmy.world/post/48906051?scrollToComments=true
TL;DR: Apparently ESA is calling private servers “illegal.”
The article mentions “Electronic Software Association”, but that does not appear to be a thing? The logo above appears to be from “Entertainment Software Association” which is… what they mean or no?
Yes, the correct name is Entertainment Software Association.
You and me both. Hell mine is even modded with the phoning home patched out.
modded mc is low key the best factory game I’ve ever played
Try out Vintage Story. Once you find the chisel, you’ll never look back.
It’s the one game I’ve been the most excited about for many years, but I can’t play it until it has native controller support. I can’t play with KB/M due to back pain, I’ve tried several mappings/layouts and mods (like knapster) but it just feels bad and even after forcing myself to get comfortable and playing around with everything it never gets to a point where it’s a major hurdle for just enjoying the game. As far as I know it’ll het controller support sometime in the future though, so I’m patiently waiting and am still very excited to dive into it once that happens!
That looks insane
It’s hours of good fun. I’m chiseling a LARGE statue of Azura out of white marble.
Why does an ESA even exist? They are literally being the fun police.
Because otherwise the government is going to create a fun police.
The ATF already exists
As do the DEA, FAA, and FTC. We need less fun police
They run E3. Oh wait that died.
They run ESRB and rate games. Not that anyone pays attention.So that pretty much leaves their extensive lobbying efforts on behalf of the largest publishers in favor of more copyright law and such.
