Just like hackers need an black hoodie. And where can I get one? Is a simple costume one enough or do I need an expensive one?

Sry I'm new here.

No, but at leat say "yo ho" when you download something. Also VPN.

Yarr is the preferred vernacular to us older pirates.

You wouldn't download a hat.

You need a boat. How do you sail the high seas without a boat.

I don't know where to get the boat tho.

[–] Shayeta@feddit.de 20 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Don't you DARE call my mighty vessel a boat. It's a ship, A SHIP!! You feebleminded SIMPLETON!

[–] Chais@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago

If I learned anything from Luffy it's that you can call any ship a boat 😁

[–] bionicjoey@lemmy.ca 14 points 10 months ago

You wouldn't download a boat!

Stan S.Stanman sells some used ones for great prices.

Newspaper can be folded into a hat in a pinch.

[–] JoeKrogan@lemmy.world 17 points 10 months ago

This was all covered in the on boarding process. We'll let it slide this time but next time have your hat on or you'll have to walk the plank 😄

[–] DemBoSain@midwest.social 13 points 10 months ago

Hat? Unnecessary. But an eye-patch helps reduce nausea when using VR goggles to search for booty.

Follow the pirate code and share the spoils, i.e. be seeding.

[–] LocustOfControl@reddthat.com 3 points 10 months ago

Those rules be more of a guideline though.

Think about renting a parrot. That's what I did for a while before getting my sea legs

[–] HipsterTenZero@dormi.zone 11 points 10 months ago

A bandana is fine if you have one.

[–] SayJess@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 10 months ago

An eye patch will suffice. If you really want to show your dedication, a wooden peg leg would be ideal. I should note that it is a bit difficult to conceal a peg leg in public.

[–] majestictechie@lemmy.fosshost.com 8 points 10 months ago

An eye patch, a parrot or a wooden leg will also do

[–] Harry_h0udini@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 10 months ago

Most important: A mindful for seeding the downloads.

What you reallly need is a tattoo of a small plant in a box to represent that you have a seedbox.

[–] 0ops@lemm.ee 3 points 10 months ago

Not per se, but it is ideal

[–] DoomBot5@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

You have to pirate it first.

[–] hperrin@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

I find this stereotype offensive.

[–] Omega_Haxors@lemmy.ml 1 points 10 months ago

It comes with.
