Japan is BASED
that's cool
>>106974745All this because the kikes wouldn't give us movies on SD cards. There were so bloodthirsty for the perfect DRM that they doomed us all to keep the stupid fucking scratchable storage mediums alive past their expiration date.
>>106974745Stuff like this is unironically why they're now trying to flood Japan with curryniggers and niggers too.
>be Japanese >live in tiny bugman apartment in giant hyper-urbanized metroplex>insist on owning everything physically >be American>live in giant suburban mansion>own nothingSomeone explain this because it's not making sense to me.
>>106974745chad moves by japs. respectable. >>106974929>All this because the kikes wouldn't give us movies on SD cards.flash memory is expensive. optical media costs cents to stamp out millions of times. >>106974953jewish corporations don't want you to own anything.
>>106974745blu rays would've been tolerable if they weren't 1 gb per disc and priced at $50 for 10 discs.also you're mentally ill aka a weeb.
>>106974965The delegation (to the European Jewish settlers in Shanghai) included Amshinover rabbi Shimon Sholom Kalish. The Japanese governor was curious and asked "Why do the Germans hate you so much?"Without hesitation and knowing the fate of his community hung on his answer, Reb Kalish told the translator (in Yiddish): "Zugim weil wir senen orientalim—Tell him [the Germans hate us] because we are Orientals."The governor, whose face had been stern throughout the confrontation, broke into a slight smile. In spite of the military alliance, he did not accede to the German demand and the Shanghai Jews were never handed over.
>>106974953>every Japanese lives in Tokyo
>>106974941Not for long with the new prime minister.
>>106975005It's true. All the other cities got nuked or had a reactor meltdown nextdoor
>W10 is kill>Buy new PCs>none come with optical drives>buy optical drivesbased retards maybe
>>10697496590% of people IRL would have been 100% content with a 2GB 1080p YIFY H264 RIP on a 2GB SD card. These DUMBFUCK kikes passed on a huge opportunity to make obscene amounts of money based on higher quality rips on different capacity SD cards all so they could cuck us all to death with DRM. Like WAYYY back in 2012 it could have gone something like this:2GB SD card movie (yify quality): $10 for the SD card + $20 for the movie4GB SD card movie (youtube quality): $20 for the SD card + $30 for the movie8GB SD card movie (95+ VMAF): $40 for the SD card + $40 for the movieThe kikes would have gotten their blood money and the consumers would now have SD cards that fit in their wallets that they could share with friends/family without the need for a fucking internet connection or bulky blu-ray player that not everyone can afford/wants.
>>106975111you're fucking stupid. discs costs cents to produce and you have ultra hd. your genius suggestion is reduce the quality, in order to use lower capacity flash.. which will still cost multiple times more than stamping out an ultra hd disc for cents. motherfucker read a fucking book nigger jesus fucking christ. it makes no financial sense at all.
>>106974953Japanese will take measures to not get jewed even if it affects his quality of life, opposite for Americans
>>106975111YIFY is fucking terribleI'll take a good old DVD over a YIFY rip any day.
>>106975034y u no likey?optical drives are based and retro pilledalso cheap immutable storagegood fukken luck ransomwaring a bunch of dvds/bds
Nips are unironically the "I need less" group. They also don't like the possibility of getting locked out of something they bought, for any reason at all. Fuck having to remember your credentials to login, 2fa, otp, etc. Just gotta insert the disk and use it.Unofficially they might lend some of the stuff they buy as well, they're likely to buy their own copy if they liked it.
>>106975183>>106975211YES, movies would have cost more money on SD cards but the FREEDOM to choose the quality level and take your movie in your fucking wallet and have it be playable in infinitely more places without an internet connection would have benefited everyone. The poorfags would have purchased the $30 YIFY 2GB SD card and later for like $10 used. The richfags would have payed more money for the higher quality 4/8GB $50/$80 SD card movies and had bragging rights that they didn't have to settle for YIFY quality. Meanwhile Shekelstine is rolling in big money.This relentless desire to control humans via DRM like lab rats is what caused YIFY rips to skyrocket in popularity and cause another shoah. Piracy has exploded in the last decade and it will only get worse as region blocking intensifies. It's so bad that it's spilling over into the real world and causing people to go back to DVD/blu-ray as they fear internet shutdowns.Anyway my point is humanity as a whole has suffered terrible consequences because of this DRM craze. Kikes are ironically hurting the industry they are trying to protect.
>>106974745It says more about how tech illiterate they are.They could easily recycle the old case and drive.
>>106974953>>own nothingEvery American has a garage full of Chinese junk.
>>106975005I mean it's like 1/4 of their population in the greater Tokyo areaSo basically
>>106974745It is not that based as it seems to be.Keeping media in physical form is just another way of gatekeeping. Japs do know shit that their media has a reasonable value outside of Nihon shores but they still refuse to cope with fact that just at point of going fully digital average pantysniffer may discover ultimate joy of pirate's life and may actually think about the real value of golden rule "piracy offers a service"
>>106975211>be Japanese>live in tiny bugman apartment in giant hyper-urbanized metroplex>have 90inch plasma tv for my 4k blade runner extreme pore facing kinoeven my captcha says KYS 8s
>>106974745Only a few months ago a bought an extra BW-16D1HT internal drive so I could have a spare. I just remembered that I intended to buy another because one spare isn't enough for something this important, but now it's out of stock everywhere. No other internal Bluray drives still made AFAIK.
>>106976292According to the article the Japanese are throwing their internal drives into the garbage and replacing them with external drives.So maybe you should try dumpster diving.Or just accept that external drives are now the norm.And they might actually be an upgrade if you can place it in an easy to access place while your PC is stowed away in a cabinet.
Do the Japanese go out of the way to install AACS decryption plugin which is technically piracy?
>>106974953the japanese consumer wants to have goods and sees spending as merely a means to itthe american consumer wants to spend and sees having goods as merely a means to itthe platonic ideal of japanese consumerism is a large bundle of goods that cost almost nothingthe platonic ideal of american consumerism is a large transaction that provides almost nothing
>>106974745>upgrade to windows 11Why don't they just use linux?
>>106977466Japanese softwares don't work well with either WINE or Proton because frankly WINE developers are from the West and don't give a damn.
>>106975111OH SO NOW THE JEWS AREN'T SMART AND CONNIVING LMAO???Lol make up your mind Anyway SD cards get lost too easily.
>>106976292is therer away to get a lappy retroactively fitted with a dvd drive? I can always just torrent shit I want to watch for long trips but if I have it on disc already I'd rather not have to while packing etc
>>106977466Linux doesn't natively support Japanese erotic video games. If you can't play Japanese erotic video games, why have a computer in the first place?
