I have a different opinion entirely: piracy is not like theft, it’s like tax evasion (or, for indie games, like sneaking into a concert without a ticket). It’s a bit stingy, but it’s perfectly understandable in certain cases, and in general not that bad of a thing morally

Because then they’ll release an update and no one will bother to re-crack the game for it. Or, in the case of hypervisor, because most people don’t risk it

Around that time, my uncle was paying a boy in his school to give him a physical drive containing a bunch of pirated games every month

Weird. VLC subtitles on mkv files work for me under Linux. I’d recommend troubleshooting VLC instead of searching for a different program

Hey, a law degree is propedeutical to piracy. Props to him

I use PipePipe, and it works for me. Have you kept it updated? Do you have F-Droid? Youtube apps need to stay up to date because of frequent API changes

I like to call them HIV bypasses sometimes

I have used Arch in the past. Installed manually without Archinstall in case you might be wondering. I firmly believe using Arch is not a significant achievement

May I ask why you want to get off Windows? I mean I can imagine a few reasons but I don’t like making assumptions

I have gone back and forth between linux and windows over the years. I suspect my laptop would have a better battery life under windows but i’m too lazy to switch again. Hmmm I don’t think I count as the Windows user you’re looking for actually, but I wanted to share my position

I am also the only person on Lemmt who thinks Windows 11 is good

Oh, boycotting Microsoft’s games comes naturally. Boycotting some of their other stuff, on the other hand, ranges from moderately difficult to impossible depending on your job

Vibecoders are just really excited to show their stuff around. Some of them happen to find Lemmy. It’s not some organized scheme just vibecoders being vibecoders

Have you tried Skyrim: Anniversary Edition, Skyrim: Special Edition or Skyrim: Legendary edition? /j

Ireland of all countries doesn’t seem like a potential target for Russia tbh, but maybe there’s something I’m missing here

My favorite is a different Capra Demon cheese because I came up with it myself in a panic. Basically you climb up the stairs, shoot the demon with your bow, drop down, then rinse and repeat until it’s dead lmao

We can rebuild him; we have the technology.
