good selection! 🤌
Hell yeah! You should check for a lot of those if they’re available still via the normal means. A lot of the old and good fansubs are just outright missing, probably because a lot of people did what you did and then life happened and the availability fell along with the demand for fansubs for new series.
For example, a lot of the big fansub names are gone, and their seeds moved on. I know the content, for a lot of fansubs still exists in forms like you have here, but it isn’t available on the internet and is at risk for bitrot and being lost media.
See if you can find ways to seed stuff for a while. I know at least I have a couple dozen stalled out 0 availability of them that I’m just waiting to magically appear online one day, that I myself will then try to seed. Maybe you’ll make somebody’s day, or year.
Edit: also, some fansubs that are lost end up being the only sources of the original version. It’s rare, but it does happen.
Yeah, I’ll do that when I have time. Though first I need find out if I lost the data or not. If not maybe I can even seed them, who knows. However most of this media were rmvb files, so I don’t think I can recover fansubs as text.
Halt, citizen!!
You are found GUILTY of PIRACY!! You are mandated by libertarian law - and the honor system - to report to the Corporate Repayment Labour Camp for 40 years of indentured servitude!
If you fail to report, a division of ICE run by a cloned Dog The Bounty Hunter will be dispatched, 10 years will be added to your sentence and at least 2 generations of your offspring will be mandated to pay Corporate Reparations and will forfeit all their intellectual property rights to the Mega Yachts for Emotionally Stunted Yuppies charity.
You agreed to these terms when you were born and signed the license agreement by crying in the Pepsicola Maternity Ward.
This sentencing brought to you by the Houston Payday Loan & Organ Brokerage firm. Problems paying rent? You don’t really need two kidneys. The option is on the table, and so is your kidney.
You should probably rescue those before they rot. Disk rot is a thing
Let’s see if they held up for ~20 years. Honestly no idea what I’ll find out. Hopefully I can check soon.
Good old Lain, I should rewatch that.
Somehow it’s still set in the present day, present time.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Planetes is a goddamn masterpiece!
Agreed! I should rewatch that.
Planetes and Cowboy bebop, the best animes ever made
I’ll put Seirei no Moribito above them all, mostly because nobody ever seems to even know about it and it breaks my heart. The novel was good, and the anime ended up ten times better, somehow!
Hey, I’ve never seen this one, thanks for sharing! I’ll definitely watch.
You have very pretty handwriting.
Ah, thank you! ^^
You’re welcome! I’m legit so jealous xD
Have a lovely day, friend.
DVDs? Cant be that old.
Exactly. Like 1997 on, but fuck I was 3 when it came out. But they became popular around 2002 according to some variety article, and surpassed vhs in 2003. Wild the players were $800 when they first came out.
DVD+R or RW was merely a research project in the late 90s - having those on the shelve is more like 2001-2003
2000 was a quarter of a century ago.
Thanks, calculating the years that past since 2000 is always the hardest for me.
12x re-writable DVDs would be from the mid 00s.
12x! DVDs!!?
My first recorder was a 1X caddy unit.
Get off my lawn.
Young one, my first “recorder” was a 3 1/4 floppy disk drive.
Serial experiments Lain, Strawberry Panic, Lovely Complex? I would say around 18 years ago, at least that’s when I was watching them.
Yup, it’s full of late 90’s and 2000’s anime.
Planetes, Gungrave… nice taste :)
Heh, thanks! :)
2006ish?
Close, 2008.
I don’t think it is legal for a pirate to have handwriting that good.
If it makes it more illegal I’m all for it. :)
Aren’t read-write disks fairly unstable from a longevity perspective?
Definitely from what I remember. They were used as some kind of floppy disks with more storage, but they sucked.
Unless you use them only once, probably yes.
The fabled write-only system
Only write. No read!
I like me stone tablets.
Ok, now listen to this gif
Sic. This made my day.
Also, early 2000’s. :)
Close but late 2000s (2008). :)
I hope I can at least recover some of them.
