No idea. I did it myself with a dremel.

That’s one way do deal with the traffic: just make your state so shitty place to live that everyone moves elsewhere.

Mine has my name engraved on it permanently as is the case with most of my possessions. I love the horror on people’s face when they hear you’ve intentionally “damaged” something valuable.

It’s almost like it doesn’t even matter what one posts here about, everyone seems to immediately make it their mission to start poking holes in it.

they don’t earn anything with it.

That’s not entirely true either. There’s no practical difference between saving 50 bucks and earning 50 bucks. In both cases you’re left with more money to spend. Piracy is equally a financial decision even if it’s just for personal use. You’re saving what ever amount it would’ve cost to buy that media.

The difference is only in scale. Stealing is stealing independent of if it’s for personal use or not.

I’m getting the feeling that the average Lemming is a pro-piracy advocate only for as long as it’s them financially benefiting from it but the script interestingly flips when a company they don’t like does the same thing.

If money wasn’t an issue, there’s be no reason to pirate anything. It’s a financial decision. There’s no practical difference between earning fifty bucks and saving that much - in both cases you’re left with 50 more bucks to spend.
