The US still hasn’t recovered from it and in many ways the war continues but through asymmetric/unconventional/covert institutional violence. It’s nearly back to the surface, though.

I mean sure yeah you can “just” buy a whole new PC and then learn how to reverse malware without getting pwned so you can save yourself like $80 on some random AAA slopware. Be realistic, does it sound like OP is gonna do that?
I mean power to anyone who does take that route, but we have to acknowledge that 99% of people are not going to.
Generally I’d say they’re one of the most dangerous things you could voluntarily run on your PC. As someone whose education and profession is in infosec, games are one of the things I refuse to pirate because the risk is just too high for me.
Just running an untrusted exe from a shady source is enough to make my hair stand on end but the idea of intentionally replacing low level hypervisor components makes me run away screaming.
FWIW, the type of games that require HV bypasses are ones that I would pass on because the “legitimate” DRM is basically equally as scary from a security perspective.
Everyone’s risk tolerance is different though. 🤷♂️
Mac OS wishes it was as usable as gnome.
This is intended as an insult for both.


For 99% of the questions of “Why does it work like that in the US?” the answer is “racism”. But this one has a nice overlap with the dominant US religion, which teaches its followers that being poor is a sin and poor people should be punished. Yes, even if you’re a child.


Still makes it effectively 1000x harder than just having the same account forever. Because now you need a new stolen credit card account for every new release.

what ops?
sounds like a question a fed would ask 👀
It’s completely commonplace for skeletons to get up and start walking around in these settings so I’m guessing they have different cultural expectations for gravesites. The PC is basically just dealing with a pest problem.
yeah in a sort of “teenager scores a basket against LeBron in 1v1” type of way
The units are wrong but the ratio is completely credible when you consider how the US has been intercepting drones
Yeah searching email has been a solved problem since like 2000. Probably even earlier than that. So if it’s broken now, it’s on purpose.
Cyberbullying isn’t just people saying mean stuff to you. It’s also posting mean stuff about you, that your community can see and maybe you don’t even know about but impacts your reputation. Imagine the Mean Girls burn book but posted online and nigh impossible for any authority to do anything about. And that’s like, the most innocent version of what this could be.
If you’re gonna go that way I’d recommend mumble over teamspeak
goodwill with voters, yes, but not with their constituents (big business)
Was there anyone else present at your birthday party Elon, or was it just “you” and “your mom” ?
