So my internet was not working and I called my ISP, the lady there said that it was because the internet security department put my modem on hold, but they aren't open until tomorrow so they are going to call me then. What is the likely reason behind the hold and should I be worried?
>>55309952
Police investigation 100%. You're gonna get your hardware seized really soon, probably in the middle of the night. Now they probably know that you know.
>>55309952
shouldnt have watched all that anime fukkin weeb scum
Seriously though, what productive answer do you expect to get from this thread?
>>55309952
>they aren't open until tomorrow
Yeah right, there are these bunch of people working there and they all have the same day off. Why make them have a day-off-schedule where all days are covered if you can give them all the same day and be more inefficient? While you're at it make it a day right in the middle of the week, when people might need immediate attention for work reasons, don't make it a Sunday. Totally not an excuse to stall you while the cops raid you.
>>55309952
THEY KNOW ABOUT THE PIZZA
SMASH EVERY HARD DRIVE
>>55309952
what did you download, OP? you shouldn't be worried if you're not a hacktivist or pedophilist
>>55310610
No, I don't do anything like that, I'm guessing it's because I torrented GoT.
>>55310671
oh. I got an email from my ISP saying that I torrented GoT lol but it was just a warning
weird that they cut your connection tho
>>55310671
Keep in mind that depending on where you live lots of japanimation shit might technically be considered cp, I advise wiping your drives right now just to be safe. No amount of inconvenience is too high to avoid jail time.
>>55313069
this
>>55310671
they give you warnings beforehand about torrents. also there are lots of people who torrent got and will never get caught for it
>>55313069
I mean I don't look at any hentai shit, I don't save any pornographic materials, and I don't even torrent anime anymore since I got a CR and Funimation subscription. The only things that come to mind are torrenting GoT, the occasional old video game, and verbally shitposting in discord with some racist buds, but since it's ISP and not police I'm guessing it's about GoT.
>>55313302
>since I got a CR and Funimation subscription
Holy shit I hope you go to prison.
>>55309952
Shaw I'm guessing. You're over your bandwidth cap bruh. And your area is likely over saturated so they're being hard asses about bandwidth usage. Maybe upgrade plans and that kind of issue will go away
>>55313302
Never admit to anything (seriously).
It's also possible that one of your computers is infected, and is trying to spread through your connection. (the FBI co-ordinates with providers to shutdown botnets/worms this way in the states)
>>55313364
I means it's like a total of $12 a month to be able to stream damn near every seasonal anime on my TV without any hassle. I used to torrent shit back when there wasn't a good alternative, but now, especially since there's only like two full time subgroups out there, there's no good reason. Also I'm not as much of a poorfag as I used to be so I can afford the shit.
>>55313364
What's wrong with supporting the industry?
>>55313405
because fuck those japs
>>55313069
This.
>>55313390
I've considered that, as I recently used Tunngle and that shit is basically the sketchiest bullshit around. There's not been any warning emails or anything, which is apparently what precedes service holds like this, so it could be that, I dunno.
>>55313387
It's Brighthouse actually, and as far as I'm aware there is no cap on bandwidth.
>>55313433
welp better start wiping those drives then
>>55313405
I don't know about Funimation, but CR literally does not produce anything. They're a scummy middleman that profits from shifting an already finished product from one place to another.
You're paying them for the titles and descriptions for each episode to be written in english.
>>55313441
If it was a police issue, and as I said there's nothing I can think of to make it so, why would the ISP act and then let me know before the police were able to stop me from doing something like that?
>>55313394
Horriblesubs costs $0. And bluray rips also cost $0. Also LOL @ buffering and wasting your bandwidth to re-watch anime you could have downloaded just once. If I wanted to "support the industry" i wouldn't give it to techno jews on the west coast i would buy a BD box off of amazon.co.jp
>>55313465
I thought CR's subs were all done in-house.
>>55313479
Fairly certain the studios do their own subs.
>>55313405
>giving money to jews
Buying BDs
Buying figures and other merchandise
Buying manga
This is how you support the industry goy.
>>55313472
I understand that I can go to nyaa and pick up everything for free, but that's only going to put the file on my PC, and I have to do even more work to place it into a folder for UMS to stream to my TV, and even then, that stream quality is shit, the playback is shit, and it crashes fairly frequently.
The alternative, I can be in bed with my PS4 controller and remote and simply browse a catalog to find what I want to watch.
>>55313505
No, definitely not. IIRC the CR subbers are former fansubbers, and it's the CR subs that get ripped by Horriblesubs and co.
what about kissanime.com my dudes, they get everyone from multiple sources very fast and reliably. if u have adblock (u do) no ads, gg
>>55313520
UMS? really?? get with the fucking times bruh. i've got plex running on a $100 machine out of my closet and it works perfectly casting shit to multiple devices in my house. shit will even work with a $35 dongle like chromecast. tho plex player is available on consoles iirc
>>55309968
>>55309952
I just got by with a penis inspection, along with a complementary anal penetration.
isps are usually pretty nice. The secret is just to admit what you did, don't hide it.
>>55309952
genki da shite, tooru chan!
daijobu!
>>55313530
After I posted I did some googling and not ALL studios provide their own subs.
However to say everyone gets their subs from CR is a fucking lie. I don't know why you would say that.
>>55313665
I didn't say everyone, I specifically named Horriblesubs because they are straight CR rips, while many if not most other subgroups just make edits to the CR transcript.
As for that example you posted, honestly the CR translation is better. Translators are supposed to deliver the original meaning, not tailor that meaning to our linguistic expectations or distort it to match their own cultures.
>>55313722
The term you're looking for is "localization." And the subs on the right are not a localization. They say virtually the exact same thing as the direct translations CR uses but they actually took the time to restructure the dialogue to make it sound less like shit.
So yes, I was wrong to initially say CR produces "nothing." Instead, the reality is that CR produces shit.
So enjoy your shit, lad. You're paying for it after all!
CR has multiple subbers on different series, some of their subbers are actually competent and others are clearly bad.
It'd be great if CR implemented a way to rate the quality of subs in their series, so that hopefully we can get the bad translators bumped off.
>>55313808
When I watch anime I watch it with an ear to the actual Japanese. My proficiency isn't good enough to watch without subs but it bothers me when the subtitles clearly aren't in line with the spoken dialogue, as in the non-CR example you provided. It is not a real translation, even if you say it is not localization.
>>55313856
>i watch anime to learn japanese
please stop
>>55313665
CR's better. It has an anime cadence.
>>55313884
No, I just appreciate that Japanese is not English, and does not share the same grammar, lexicon, or idioms as English. The translation should sound off, as the words being spoken are in fact not actually playing by the same rules as the English they are being translated into.
>>55309952
probably just them fucking up but change your ISP today. don't stand for this shit
>>55313835
CR subs are ripped from Cruchyroll and other such services. Same for HS.
>>55313722
>honestly the CR translation is better. Translators are supposed to deliver the original meaning, not tailor that meaning to our linguistic expectations or distort it to match their own cultures.
are you daft? the example provided doesn't do that. it's just straight up shit editing. like it was shat out of a translator without being fixed by someone who could speak english.
>>55313999
>CR subs are ripped from Crunchyroll
>>55313856
you are fucking retarded and deluded that you know enough japanese to gauge intent.
>>55314035
I've got two years on it in college and I've actually been to Japan. I can hear the difference between what is being spoken and what you're told is being spoken.
>>55314080
not from the comments you've made about the translation above. and i'm fucking japanese. stay deluded weab www
>>55314109
Sure thing, zipperhead.
>>55314024
>he needs it mangled into colloquial English
I bet you like stripped honorifics and the switching of family with given names
>"Kurosaki-kun!"
>Hey Ichigo!
>>55314080
>two years in college
So basically you're N4, if that lol. How many novels/VNs have you read?
>>55314109
>i know better because im japanese.
>>55314151
There's no point in discussing anecdotal bullshit on the internet, so I won't.
>>55314160
So why are you even on 4chan then fag?
Admit it, you don't know Japanese.
>>55314153
>spends 2 years
>thousands of dollars in tuition
>plus thousands more on "pilgramage" to his otaku holy land
>still can't communicate on a level better than average nip 1st grader
mfw
>>55313394
>"You don't want to pay for shit service? Y-You must be a p-poorfag!"
Dude, I know people on neetbux who can afford netflix, spotify and crunchyroll
>>55309952
summer, everyone! lil faggots are back!
>>55313520
>what is plex
Fucking retard
>>55314180
>Thinking I'm the other guy.
Just pointing out shit tier arguments, friendo.
>>55314216
i'm native japanese and just reinforcing my point that i find foreign otaku (weabs) disgusting
>>55313520
(Torrent,NZB whatever the fuck)->Sonarr->Transmission-Daemon->Plex
>>55314237
and yet here you are speaking in English. you probably wear jeans and watch American TV too. fuck off fag, don't mock weebs unless you literally wear kimonos every day and only eat rice with fish.
>>55314237
That's pretty racist dude. Jesus.
>>55314171
>he can't follow anime Japanese
They use like 20 words.
>>55309952
Probably your computer being used as part of a botnet... so they're isolating it until the botnet can be removed.
Shouldnt have installed windows 10!
FUNIMATION IS A BAD COMPANY WITH BAD PRACTISES.
DO NOT SUPPORT THEM.
>BAD VIDEO QUALITY
>AWFUL SUB
>EPISODES DELAYED AND LEAKED BECAUSE OF STUPIDITY
CRUNCHYROLL IS ALSO A BAD COMPANY
NO QUALITY CONTROL FOR THE SUBS.
