Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

But that still is somewhat odd, like if I buy a car I can take it to any mechanic to get it fixed or modified. I would then need to pay them, but I own the car.
The mechanic should not be arrested for modifying my car.
I suppose the "grey zone" is if the modifications allow the owner to access unpaid content. Like maybe heated seats ;)
It depends on whether you rent or own. You rent a flat and you cannot do what you want. Unfortunately, with games, most law is set up so you rent them and are buying a licence to play them within the conditions set out. It sucks, but that is how it is set up.
