Apologies for being the bearer of bad news. "6 hours ago" means roughly 6-7pm Eastern on April 30, 2025. I have no further information; I only know because I was going to visit the wiki and . . . apparently now I'm not.

It's under "Guides & Search Engines" in the Software section of the megathread, should anyone with rights care to update.

prefix it with an exclamation mark to make an instance agnostic link.

!genp@lemmy.dbzer0.com

New to Lemmy. Can you explain what this means?

[–] Irelephant@lemm.ee 4 points 5 days ago

So, since lemmy is comprised of many servers, links on dbzer0 won't work for me, on lemm.ee .

This link will link to any server's copy of the community.

Alright, thanks :)

[–] dysprosium@lemmy.dbzer0.com 77 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Im not even sure what this sub is for?

From search : GenP is a tool that allows you to medicine Adobe apps on Windows 10 and 11

[–] merthyr1831@lemmy.ml 101 points 1 week ago (1 children)

to medicine > to crack

You'd download legit trial versions of adobe shit and use GenP to disable the trial and call home functionalities. Brilliant bit of kit before I moved to Linux.

I run photoshop in wine just fine ;)

[–] marcuslee@pawb.social 2 points 22 hours ago

Yeah odd but on GitHub there is mention of pill 💊, either loss in translation or lingo https://github.com/wangzhenjjcn/AdobeGenp/releases

[–] Dumhuvud@programming.dev 46 points 1 week ago (2 children)

It's just an euphemism, "DRM / License check" = "disease".

[–] dysprosium@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

So to medicine is like to download lots of Linux ISOs, sometimes.

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 week ago

I also love to legally torrent my favourite open source software legally.

Imagine using Adobe. Being bled dry.

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 33 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I use a really good, free alternative to photoshop and indesign.

They're called pirated photoshop and pirated indesign.

violating Reddits copyright policy

This is coming to all the piracy and grey areas of reddit

[–] Lolen10@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 6 days ago

Yeah. I'm really surprised that r/piracy is still up. I would have guessed that that sub would be killed firstly as it's one of the biggest.

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 1 week ago

We welcome their refugees. Many of them, at least.

[–] Zephyr_exe@lemmy.ml 49 points 1 week ago

Fuck Spez and Fuck Reddit

Seems to be a tool to patch Adobe products so that they don’t require a license

Nobody is surprised. But it is sad news nonetheless.

This has always been a class war. Plebs have been lulled I to comfort but the gloves are now coming off across economic sectors.

May the odds be on your favour!
