Legally, you’re allowed to make copies of games that you own and use them in an emulator. You can download mods, play multiplayer across the Internet when servers get shut down and also take advantage of better hardware and get better resolution and framerates, then there are quality of life improvements like savestates.

Works fine on my machine

I don’t own an IBM mainframe so.

ESXi sucks

Just set the clock back a month.

As far as preventing use data, you can usually unplug the cell modem, or you can put a faraday bag over it in order to prevent it from connecting.

I’m sure that there is also a software solution for these issues as well. I have a cable and software for my car that lets me enable and disable features.

I wish I had enough money to afford to buy a new car, I probably wouldn’t do it because affordable would still mean living paycheck to paycheck. Not sure why I would want a second mortgage on something that depreciates that quickly.

Nice Dick

They say the full version is the inspiration for infinite jest.

Plankton farts and dies

It is infringement if you’re sharing the files, but if you make a copy for yourself, then it’s considered fair use. See: Sony Corp. of America v. Universal City Studios, Inc.

Internet isn’t always available, such as in an airplane or someone might not want to give access to the Internet to their child but wants to give them video or audio on a tablet. They can legally copy the content and watch it later.

There are legal issues with software that is solely designed to bypass drm, but that only applies to the software creator, not the user.

That isn’t piracy. It’s time shifting, and it’s perfectly legal to do it.

I had one that intentionally detected a VM and just gave a message that said “Hello :)” and wouldn’t load.

Then don’t use it.

There was a bunch of downtime over the holidays. I assumed it was due to the Lemmy update withholding posts for several days and then flooding kbin. It doesn’t bother me in the slightest and I have multiple fediverse accounts.

I’m surprised that he hasn’t updated his talking point to Hamas. Just shows just how out of touch this guy is.

There actually were quite a few issues in 2016 that legitimately could have caused him to win.

I envision brands creating their own instances that federate with Meta. Then you can get an exclusive Gucci account for some absurd amount of money and use it to flex on the plebs.

The prime minister has an axe to grind with Palestine because his own brother was killed in an operation ~50 years ago. He’s stated many times that he has no intention of any kind of peace and he’s only using a tragedy to take revenge. It’s no different than the u.s. going into Afghanistan after 9/11 and then using that as a foothold when they invaded Iraq under dubious circumstances. It’s completely indefensible.

There’s is pretty much one sketchy site for this stuff I can’t remember the name of it, but I think it requires a payment to access downloads. Almost all pirated car software comes from eastern Europe.
