For those who wanna shell out some money:
Pricing is likely a little higher than the lowest price they show. Expect a couple bucks or something after making a purchase of like… five bucks or so.
Apparently Monero is accepted.
(They have plenty of competitors and some might be cheaper or not require purchasing a balance.)
Read about those DCP drives! Maybe cammers are just burning theaters one by one and careful not to return for a long time if ever.
A theater operator doing the recording would be wildly risky it seems unless watermarking has been defeated. Visual and audio watermarking perhaps.
Seems like they’re very comfortable with applying watermarks at least for those betting sites!
Amazing clip you posted seven months ago here. Doesn’t seem like it could even be any better now.

Might have to make a new post about this:
How are there still cams if there’s been anti-piracy watermarks reported on since at least 2006?
Maybe the pirates never hit the same theater twice in a row… travel to different cities… only record at any given theater once every few years… then you’d need resources to catch somebody I’d guess.
I expect not all theaters can afford to send guys in with night vision goggles:
Maybe that’s outdated now since they can just throw up IR cameras:
Corrupt theater manager or shifty projectionist: no camera/security concerns, but still watermark concerns
Regular theatergoer: both camera/security concerns AND watermark concerns
Gutsy pirates out there!
This is the exact kind of thing I was hoping someone would chime in with. Thanks for the interesting info!
This is why I compose all my messages on an air gapped computer and send them out from my compound with couriers.
The politicians may want the win for selfish reasons. You just want the best representatives for yourself, your loved ones, and your country.
This hypothetical allows you to weigh a party taking the moral high ground against representatives the average Lemming does not want making four years of policy decisions being in a position to do so.
You can give the party you want to win a spine, but it comes at a cost.
Interesting. Then I’m guessing you’d accept the time machine showed you the right outcome & would let the dems lose this election, but it would help them for the next/future elections?
Thanks for your input everybody!
Thank you - this led to lots of interesting reading!
Ayyyyy
Amazon Lightsail, free for three months!
What a fabulous suggestion to meet every need listed.
Like you, @[email protected] & @[email protected] also get lots of credit for a solution that will meet my need in spite of my focus on the cloud-based solution. The free Lightsail option is a little slower than would be ideal… it’s also freeeee! So glad to be exposed to it regardless of whether I end up going local VM or cloud.
Thanks!
Most succinct yet informative possible description of IsThereNet, I think :)
I am so installing this! Will be very useful beyond the simple use case in my OP. Thanks Data.
Clever! Thanks for finding those links too.
Ah, my threat model isn’t that Snowden, thanks.
you could get a false negative
Good point. Will keep that in mind in general. (For this specific use case? Maybe it’s fine since if I see the red bar while my apps are still working, I could ignore it - but now I’ll think back to your comment and understand maybe Cloudflare is experiencing an issue. In which case I’ll check their status pages and wouldn’t be surprised to see some news article or complaints too!)
Thank you, and thanks for the counterpoint @[email protected]
In 2004 I would not have understood why!
Isn’t the FBI supposed to be non-political?
Yet here they are trying to own Z-Libs
