Nice! Thanks. Could do with some borders, or something, though.

How do you plan to handle trusted and A+ status on torrents? Trusted status alone put some sub groups easily above the others.

>>60237891

Why don't you just write some simple scraping script to do your searches for you?

>>60237991
not him, but making a terminal version first is excellent for a couple reasons
>allows valuable developer time to go more towards important features than looks
>very, VERY easy to make a gui wrapper when main features are implemented
>can separate the mainline developers from those who want to develop interfaces, and streamline the entire feature->gui process

Sure, this may not work best for a big company with an army of developers, but it's great for tiny projects.

Don't worry about using the terminal version as an end user, it's basically GUARANTEED that some autist will develop a frontend for whatever platform you use.

Remember tox? Yeah the project failed in the end, but we had great windows, mac, linux, ios, and android clients all maintained separately by different developers and kept in sync with the backend. This development scheme actually works.

A better idea is to just have the non-free renchon on the site but not on the repo and let anyone who wants to set his own site put his own image of renchon.

>>60238897
End yourself.

To whenever IPFS guy I have been talking comes back (or anyone else knowledgeable), thinking back earlier another anon suggested using OpenPGP to verify data.

I haven't really touched PGP, but reading up on it would see viable to have to verify uploads, say if Commie uploaded and sent the pubsub out they could sign the data. Using PGP will also give us the web of trust where other nodes can trust uploaders for better verification. The only problem I can see with this is then having to rely on a keystore, which is not a decentralised thing, would there be a benefit to using this or not or does ipfs provide something similar?

>>60239126

Yeah, I forgot how it applied to the software/games categories.

I have to say these past couple days have been the most proud moments of /g/

>>60239271
OpenPGP is okay, but there is no reason to assume people would use it now when they haven't used any *PGP for the > decade it could have been used.

Software wise, it's probably not entirely the right tool for the job anyhow.

> web of trust
Precisely this method has been what people DIDN'T want to do.

In general the thing that worked for most people was just and only "automatic" trust. Certificate from "authority" (even a ridiculously unverified one from the user's point of view, look at all the accepted certificates in an average OS) signs certificate of legal entity or domain, and then everyone trusts that without ever investing any effort.

More effort than no effort and people will not use it.

The other variant to this in use is "just" random persons inventing a signature key and signing their stuff without anyone else guaranteeing they're who they claim they are, which for reasons almost too evident works just as well in general.

IPNS is basically doing that variant for IPFS.

>>60239362
I know with IPFS we can just check their PeerID but if they their server happens to be taken down (assuming it's being hosted somewhere else) there isn't really a way to verify them anymore.

So far I have my program generate a key that the owner can save to his computer locally which works for publishing for IPNS (I believe), but with pubsub it will only send the PeerID along with the message of course there is no way to supply an additional key as far as I can tell.

EU law isn't everything. You know where modern international copyright started?

That said, the much more US-based push to make copyright worse than a murder-piracy gorillian dollar heavy robbery heist rape isn't carrying in Switzerland so far (and if law is somewhat sane, where is the fun for RIAA or anyone else to sue private people, they're not after $20 license fees) - but that doesn't mean you can strongly interfere with "the normal commercial exploitation of a work", I'm pretty sure.

It's a meme anon. We have to pretend that all the sometimes-jokey fansubbers have organized over 10 years ago and are behind the whole scene. It's like a semi-retarded fansub hate trend that took over after horribesubs became huge.

The list has gotten smaller over the years, so I recon even this small sample that I could remember off the top of my head probably doesn't consist of every member being active.
My take on it though is that they all still have a word to say, behind the scenes. Much like all the names of the other faggots I forgot and am missing there.
However make no mistake, those are the people that control the fansubbing of Japanese cartoons.

I mean, everyone and their dog who get into fansubbing want to sub the popular series. Obviously they don't start there (I know, I've tried). But they actually manipulate which series get subbed and which don't? Isn't this done on a popular demand basis?
I've been waiting for the Grappler Baki manga to be fully translated for years now, along with keeping an eye on Garouden.

This website is big into conspiracies since gamergate so yeah with an ominous name like "The cartel" we should automatically assume some nefarious shit going down.

Just connect the two and we have another wave of fansubber hate-spergings. DAE horriblesubs is our one true god?

I'll take your word for it, internet stranger. When can I expect to get knocked off for subbing one of the anime they control?

>>60240051
Is not a conspiracy

>>60240033
The fansub groups that make them up are huge and popular. Ever since CR came around, a lot of the smaller groups died so they pretty much have the say on how things get subbed. The fact that they have the similar opinions on how things get subbed and the fact that they have relatively close ties to each other pretty much helps in developing the suspicion that there is a cartel.

>And what does this controlling actually do in action?

Well for example, they control which shows get ratted A+ quality status and which don't.
In fact, more than this, if they dislike you as a fansubber for some reason, they will exclude you from hosting any of your subs and will label you as re-encoder, or in the worse scenario, ban you into obscurity.
Other aspects also include complete monopoly of most codec-packs and shilling the one they consider to be their favorite as the only one you should be using, such as CCCP.
And also, deciding on what is the best codecs themselves to encode and force their chosen standards onto the community, such as the Hi-10profile and soon the 2.65HEVC.
To complement all of this, they also have the direct control of the best quality and available RAW's possible for the shows they select, which they never share and always keep to themselves in their inner circles. And yes, this also includes the new way, which no one has found out yet, they have of getting FULL-HD quality Amazon rips for the current shows airing this Season.
As a side note, they are also notorious shitposters and take part in extreme combined cyclejerking private sessions.

I don't know if it's really a nefarious group. I used to be in the fansub scene like ten years ago or so and a lot of people know each other, contribute with one another or jump groups. It would make sense that at some point they organized themselves as a common front since they all share a common interest in fansubbing.

Anime and manga is fiction, not some sort of academic literature or business documents. It's primary goal is to entertain, not to give Japanese linguistic lessons to foreigners. As such, it should be translated with functional equivalence in mind, period.

Like just consider for a moment something with a lot of jokes. Then consider the fact that nothing kills a joke faster than having to explain it. A comedy show where every single joke was translated "literally" and explained in notes would be basically taking a dump all over the whole idea of it being a comedy show.

People in general really underestimate the impact of script quality when it comes to actually enjoying a piece of media, and this very much applies to translations. A subpar translation can easily ruin a script that was very well written in its original language, especially when you're dealing with languages as distinct as Japanese and English.

Replacing a joke that can't be translated with another joke is completely acceptable.
