Follow usual safety procedures, avoid weird links and redirects, prefer services whose name you can google etc and you’d be fine.

Came here to see that and am not disappointed.

Would you describe it further? I don’t see how coming to a subscription-based model makes it not piracy. I feel like I miss something there.

I died a little inside by remembering that I was there when their lifetime CS licenses were sold and that licensing servers went offline at least a dozen of years ago… On the other hand, it raises a question if breaking CS versions is a piracy if they are abandoned. There’s no way to use them even if you are a paid customer wanting to install it on your new PC.

Random drunk person talking on the cam rip: real shit!

Their R&D in designing a console and these nice controllers is probably more expensive for Valve than what they’ve got from selling actual products, but cheap smartphone is $40 in the more sanctioned Russia, so I guess something like $100 isn’t an unreasonable price goal, and these folks are historically more into IT than we are, that makes me believe they can do or already did cheap controlling devices. I’m open to be wrong.

And yeah, military things are always extra durable and extra overpriced, but they are in a process to cut corruption to join NATO\EU, so probably the end price won’t be that exhausting.

Maybe a little excessive for just drone operation and communications, but the formfactor of a handheld console is where the sweet spot is. I feel like if they’d make them for $100 with something akin to a 10-years old hardware in a rugged everything-proof body, it can become a standard in the future. Cheap drones have shown they can drop bombs alright, so there’s probably a market for a cheap controller made just for that.

They deserve this slap on the face.

Wait, they are federating with Threads? I thought everyone, even single-user instances blocked them. WTF?

A paranoidal schizophrenic and a single dev of Temple OS thought thar he’s watched and messed with by federal agencies. He knew, because he could see a glowing aura around them undercover agents. After his ramblings about it, 4chan boards users who watched his streams as a lolcow (a person of interest who can be milked for lulz) took this slang term from him. Then it spread everywhere.

For some reason it didn’t support my new controller so I added the game via Steam. This should do it. Sometimes even for installers since it’s wine.

I used Tamper Monkey and a script called [VOT] - Voice Over Translation to use russian Yandex translation outside of their own browser. But be suspicious of scripts you install. They have a lot of access to you history, current pages, system.

It should be cockblocked right at the begining, otherwise it’d be introduced to other EU countries too.

I wonder how Warframe is on it. Not really an oldschool shooter, but still got me to use M+KB over a controller.

I had found a bunch of complimentary materials to what I was watching on rutracker-dot-org. It’s not anime-oriented, but it can serve as a last place to search them.

#pip install pikepdf

import pikepdf

pdf = pikepdf.open(‘filename.pdf’, allow_overwriting_input=True)

pdf.save(‘new_filename.pdf’)

#That’s if you have it in the same folder. You can make that script more clever. It strips off DRM stuff like printing, copying, editing permissions that are respected by most programs. Probably kills your DRM too.

As I understand it, it has lax checks if all disks are original. Some games required many, Pt.1 was on one, Pt.2 was on another, and a memory card sewed this monstrosity together whenever you switch disks - as it had no HDD, no install options.

Designing a game around that was hard and probably meant frequent checks, delays, and also a player having incomplete game if only one disk is missing or scratched if they want to play again - and you swapped them back and forth. So that dev implemented zero-check on a second disc after the first one is checked, a command to kill a game and start anew, and with that you can put whatever you burnt on your CD, leaving the console clueless it’s not your actual disk 2. It still needs you to boot with original Aliens first and put code, so it’s not exactly stealing anything directly, but oh god it’s an interesting vulnerability.

I haven’t heard of something akin to that, besides weird cartridge combos on old consoles where you put one into another or other heresy like plug-in cartridge readers, hardware extenders, etc. It seems Sony was convinced the first check is there, and it’s ok, but never thought you can abuse it up that great, and had no further investigation was put.

For a console that aged, that had hardware jailbreaks and emulators for years, I don’t feel they’d hurt him now. Twenty years is too much even for them. They’d still sell mini-PS1 without any problem as it has no disk reading capabilities and won’t care.

Some series have a weird pattern of deletion.

Lolwut. Does it mean 2-5 are still availiable or they never were?

It’s all Discovery Channel’s properties, and it’s a good day to rewatch their classics and seed them.

I too took my speeds for granted before I learnt many people I know have a cable connection worse than mobile. It’s 2023, in a big city. How does it make sense?

What I dislike about all these services is all of them have their own app\UI, many of them are awful and take time to figure out. There are plenty of refined software solutions for playing music and videos, they have plugins you can put your DRM overseer in, they exist for decades. Yet every one of them see their mission in reinventing the bycicle once again. I want my experience and my hotkeys to be consistent, to have the same quality whatever I consume. The only way to achieve that is to invest the same money into a big hard drive and then leech and seed.

I hope you are wrong. A big multi-part archive can’t normally be operated if any part is missing. I hope they do separate zips of a smaller size, like 100gb chunks of random books. By looking at one person’s comment it seems the largest compilations are very unpopular.
