Fonzie!

I’ve seen it usually works well.

I believe you do have to change the slashes in the checksum files and run wine setup.exe in the folder, after that it should have a desktop shortcut just like on Windows. You should also be able to add it as installed game to Lutris.

Take it with a grain of salt, I haven’t tried it myself, though.

…without any repercussions, So Far™

Yeah well, a remake means they made the game again. It’s a new game, with the same content. That does mean it runs a new engine, and has modern-sized textures and models.

Perhaps they could optimise the game a bit more, I’ve always thought an installer that let’s you choose wether to install the downsized 1080p assets or the full-size 4k assets would’ve been nice to have but alas.

Nor models.

And oh look, those make up everything that isn’t music or UI!

Old game runs needs less powerful hardware than new game

Good lord, did you figure that out all by yourself‽ /s

The vast majority of these rpm records are not copyrighted. The same happened before when they were losing lawsuits over the books they archive, the vast majority of them weren’t copyrighted and almost none of them were published by the sueing publishers.

This isn’t about copyright as they would have you believe, this is about information being publicly accessible rather than controlled by corporations.

This is the way.

I can see how you were confused, but maybe don’t phrase it like that next time lol.

That’s true, I’ll keep it in mind! I thought I was being funny but I was just confusing and crude

Wait it is? The last sentence looks jumbled to me… I could use “English isn’t my first language” as a defence but I get the feeling I’m just slow or something

Do you smell burnt toast?

AFAIK it’s been implemented years ago, but only for when the uploader checks a box in the advanced settings for the video.

Some videos are barricaded with DRM, most aren’t.

I can speak for Nord’s client sending requests to Google for some reason, maybe not great for privacy thus not great for piracy either.

I can speak well of Mullvad, but advise against sending hundreds of bucks in one go as paper mail is not exactly well secured. There’s another VPN that happily accepts cash as payment and doesn’t need your info but I can’t find it atm…

Dumb answer: Just use a VPN, my guy.

An adware whatever should also be avoided.

Ouch fair 😅

Even though this is an old one, going by the ID.

Okay but programing or Unix jokes are whole different cake than openly admitting piracy unless you’re Meta.

Hold up is this real?

EDIT Holy fucking shit it’s real: https://xkcd.com/488/

Maybe do something about your opsec…
