A get together where people gather in a physical space to make and share copies of any kinds of media like books, music, movies, software and more.
The internet making downloading large files accessible has fazed out copy parties for the most part but some may argue that they're needed more then ever now that people aren't getting together, anti consumer moves from big companies is encouraging piracy, public domain content is under attack by false DMCA take downs and sharing large libraries of content over the internet is not an option for a lot of people.
I'm hosting a copy party next Saturday to share my collection of furry porn that has exceeded 500gb, Anne and Michael are bringing their collection of unreleased original music.
Back in the 80s, I use to attend copy parties where we'd make copies of each others commodore 64 games and I was the cool kid for knowing how to crack DRM and having a cassette duplicator.
"Sharp copy" is the phrase sometimes used by photographers to say that the image quality (sharpness in particular) of this particular version of the lens is good. When something is mass-produced, designs are made which define the ideal size, along with the upper and lower limits for tolerance away from this ideal size, for every piece (every screw, hole, seal, etc.) in the final product. When it comes to making a lens, these variances apply to the glass as well as the metal housing. Sometimes a lens which might pass quality inspection at the factory might perform worse than another lens that came off the same production line at a different time.

“You mean copy of naruto”
Written material (a few sentences or an entire paragraph) that has questionable worth in the larger scheme of the story, article, or blog post. Figuratively, the copy is standing on the ledge wondering whether it should "take the leap" or continue on with its existence.
"David thinks he is a great writer, but his writing rambles on and on with meaningless ledge copy. He should just get to the point."
