I wish... The best I've found is https://openipc.org/ which is a very manufacturer unsupported way of reflashing certain chips with open-source firmware. It seems very fiddly as only certain SoCs are supported and good luck finding out if a specific Chinese camera has one.

> creating the cracked version of a piece of software is infringement

Depending where you are it might be "DRM circumvention" all the way up to some bollocks hacking charge.

It's pretty murky in places because lots of copyright laws protect DRM but also have carve-outs for personal backups.

I could write a script that could tell you the sum total of red and black pixels.

This is more like asking someone colorblind which shade of red the image is closer to.

Yes, because the admins are reasonable. Just like it's possible to find Mastodon servers with reasonable admins.

But the GPs comment blamed Mastodon as a whole for allowing the possibility of admin abuse, which isn't substantially different from HN.
