I’m so absolutely sick of it.
Adobe is cracked in torrents, the master’s collection. Adobe to me was just pdf editor and an animator or maybe designing clothes, the other stuff was new. Before all websites were done through Java.
It was cracked and put on there by the guy who was selling it because if he went somewhere else he had to pay to use the programs, and other employees did as well, it’s a group that does it. The same group that watched Warner bros cartoons in the early 2000s and looked over shoulders of others using computers. I said not to let anyone see the monitor turned on or they get addicted to it. It was that risky with computers or smartphones.
The union does this as well with auto desk. But in the original computer or in Linux studios, or steam, I mean in Xbox, the programs had no name.
Apple or Adobe as Apple and the reverse, does this intense marketing economy thing, and no one going anywhere besides them, they all used Mac products only because Mac was always smooth to use or something or they had older ones and made newer ones without Intel. Apple/Adobe keeps everyone broke or in debt or with small amounts of money or all the same or similar, but it’s like it capitalist potential or habitual drug use and using or buying anything that existed and traveling in automobiles even short distances. It became all porn/only fans with them or something.
They’re after all the boxed and bagged food and Mc Donald’s. But Mc Donald’s created that software.
Adobe makes it simple to do stuff like animations and website creation, and all that, there’s a long list of programs, designing clothes and movie editing, game stuff.
He kidnapped me by having me sit here in 2014 after I sold him a phone that was almost better than a computer, but he thought he was getting the master banking phone computer. A parasite did this pretending to be Mac thing then ran into Adobe which is where Apple stuff was sold, next to the Bank of England near the Ohio turn pike or further south east of Columbus. He was my biggest fan, the biggest fan of Warner Bro/Walt Disney, he won a contest where he got to meet me. What he really wanted to do was ruin the internet and online shopping or economics even drugs entirely and stock up on old boxed bagged processed food and run off somewhere to sit around watching free television like he was Italian in the 90s. You know why they call it the 90s right? Because it’s in the 90s in the summer and at least 75 the rest of the year. But we preferred the 90s but it was also the 1980s and 1990s.
Maybe that’s why the union had Kirk hit me with a dodge challenger in a blizzard on foot in 2014, I liked walking in a blizzard. Sometimes cartoons were to brainwash everyone and keep them sitting there or our lives were ruined, these people only eat and multiply like crazy, only capitalism went on for food or they got a job there. Nothing was durable and anyone just grabbed anything and took it somewhere else and used it or got whatever they could out of it.
It’s always ethical to pirate from Adobe.
Firefox is getting the ability to edit PDFs. Its not quite ready for prod so I use SumatraPDF
I signed up for creative cloud and accidentally signed for a year. They want 60$ to cancel the subscription. Suck my taint.
How is that even legal
Unlike most online services that essentially do not offer refunds (you just ride out the subscription), Adobe has created more of a carrier type plan, where there is a yearly contract so it accrues the same penalty like any phone plan.
So yeah, legal. Just the worst kind of legal. And that’s Adobe. Just the worst kind.
Hey adobe, how about you stop contacting everyone in our organization using a single non-profit license of a single product and telling them we should all be on a single cloud account so we can pay several times more for the same thing just to get access to sharing services no one wants?
If you think Adobe is bad just wait until you have to deal with Autodesk.
Literally argued with a bunch of game-pass supporters on this very topic today, where we don’t own shit anymore and everything is rental only. Sick of people gobbling corporate cock.
Tangentially related… I work IT in a CNC shop. Most engineering prints that we get to make parts to have various specs on them for materials and various finishes. Those specs used to be free years ago, but they’ve most all been replaced, but not really updated at all. Now everytime they have a revision change, we have to buy the new revision from SAE for like $70 a piece. As shitty as that already is, in recent years, they have DRM locked them to a single user. So while we have 50+ employees with multiple needing to reference these for quality inspection or processing, it’s against the ToS to share those specs. We are supposed to buy one for each user which is fucking bogus.
Fuck em. I screen snip each page and make a new PDF, or that one user prints it out and scans it in. The extra kicker is that while that’s not allowed, you can buy a paper copy that can be shared for the same cost, you just have to wait for it to be delivered.
Same with ISO docs. Imagine being required by law to follow specs you have to pay to know.

Relevant case law:
TL;DR: once “annotations” or “model codes” or whatever are incorporated into the actual law, they are no longer eligible for copyright.
That doesn’t stop organizations like SAE and ISO from trying to bully and trick you into agreeing to pay them for copies that you obtain directly from them instead of trudging down to the local law library and making copies yourself, however. (And it’s even worse when you want convenient electronic copies instead of paper, because then they try to apply EULA bullshit, which I’ve already debunked in another comment.) IMO it’s probably best to get the documents from some third-party source so you never get on the standards org’s radar for a shakedown to begin with.
