Its a site for Roms of many concoles and handhelds. U can grab wii games, psp games and there different variants (jp us eu etc)

I loved it because it was really eell organized and had everything even niche stuff

I will look at those too thanks!!! ☺️

That would be a great systeme tbf. Everyone wants that. But idk if in practice it can work. For news corps for example usually click baity reads earn more than genuine journalism which is sad abviously.

The system you propose for movies should be doable. More views, more reviews = more earnings. It is more like cinemas in a sense viewers pay with their money. But as comments said there should also be a limit of how much you earn. It should not be an awful pay but here is where more research is needed. And should become public after a while or whenever it fully covered costs and some revenue for whoever did it.

My only concern is that is this limit going to discourage people to produce movies, music etc?

Thank you for your help! I will give it a read and try to find interesting info in it !

Thank you will surely give it a look!

What a nice read I never heard of word perfect but that is in a way very precise example Tbf alternatives to ms word are hard to come by. Not saying ms word is perfect it actually pretty bad if u think abt it but no alts are at the level of it as of now. Tried libre didn’t like the cluttered Ui. I did like OnlyOffice but had several bugs that crashed the app and removed saves. While it is true that a more pirated copy makes more people use a software taking ur example. But whenever there is a monopoly, it is hard not to pirate or buy the software (looking at adobe). Though alternatives are quite good sometimes. I really loved Gimp and it could replace photoshop imo.

For the Drm on books it is also very true. Why use a book that is only openable in a proprietary software (looking at you adobe) that last for 3 days when u can find it in a shadow library or remove DRM. It reminds me of how awful it is compared to physical libraries. These are free or have a membership but u could in theory have a book as long as u need and find it there again (unless destroyed)

Though the honor system while in a way true in practice i do not know if numbers add up. If a service is good people abviously buy it (like winRar strategy) But does it work overall?? I do need to dig into that. If u have any reliable info on it. It would be great. I did hear a study that found that people who pirate tend to spend or recommend more on creative works (Bandcam or direct donations…) Its a release of creative content Australia u can check it too…

As you also well said it is always better to go to foss software. But sometimes there are compromises people are willing to take or not. Yes there is also the issue with data with proprietary software (looking at you adobe) An example would be VLC. True it is great but it lacks customizability and ui that looks outdated. Or Linux. Personal experience was great but its still not quite there, due to many apps only able to run on windows out of the box (yes there is compatibility layers but still)

Thanks for the answer i will look more into that i did not know abt public art fundings !

tbf that is a great point I just now need to find a paper discussing that system ur describing. I never thought about that like that tbf but some issues arise like what is the production cost?? who determines that or moderates it? but again great idea i hope i can find some papers taking ur point to a more practical point (if it is employed somewhere or if u might have an example of such system that has been studied)

I did that with google scholar too ik there is a book that a read a bit called walled culture (abt intellectual property) will do that thx!

oooo that is actually a cool thing to look at actually i will see what i can find i did read something similar but for books and how publishers hated the numeration of books because they couldn’t control the copies of it !

that is a very cool idea! but then how to counter the fact that money is needed to produce these things such as art, books etc Like dont we pay artists ? directly?

while digital property is really debated even believed that copyright for physical goods being copied to digital is no fair

so i could dig into digital intellectual property i will see what i can find

Hello i am able to answer the first and maybe the second one of your points. First yes online fix works quite well i managed to make it work on whiskey running wine on a mac and played online with tunneling using playit gg. So i guess on linux it should as well. I played many games using online fix like Palworld and Lethal company and never had issues. Just a note online fix requires u to have steam u for it to work. That is why i opted for tunneling. But it worked well between my friends on windows. The game itself ran on mac on whiskey but couldnt connect via steam we couldn’t figure this part.

For the second one i was able to use BepinEx for Lethal Company mods and worked you just need to tweak things on whiskey to be able to run dll files in my case.

I hope this helps

Will try thx for the suggestion!

Would it work with play it gg??? This seems like an idea to try. I was hoping that it would work with online fix… For info we all have the cracked version of the game running the same version. Just one of us is on mac and having him join our lobby is harder than expected

Ooo i see imma check it out!

Ik but i just have one of my friends on mac and i dont want him to be left out of the fun. We are all conscient that gaming on Mac is hell
