haha you got me! nice joke

well I couldn’t vouch for malware-free but regarding PUP, I’ve an office activated through MAS on my travel notebook and nothing like those things

yeah I’ve been using libreoffice for years as a young adult but in the last years I personally enjoyed MSO more

ty, I actually started using it and it’s great

how do you know the browser extension is safe?

it’s actually mostly for tv shows, and maybe in the FUTURE games. The site I use for streaming is slow when I watch them in my native language, that’s why torrent. I’m on a budget tho, I think it’ll either be surfshark or fastestvpn. I realise now fastestvpn kinda sucks, but I think if I don’t care about the speed it’s really affordable (or f-secure if it’s bundled with m365 again and if I still will need onedrive storage, maybe not).

I appreciate you explained how port forwarding works (really ^^), like you I can also deal with not having it especially because for a bit my wallet is tight.

is port forwarding only for speed? I think I’ve got some confusion, can I torrent with proton free for casual usage?

Edit: I read on reddit they block torreting so okay, my question is still valid though. I’ve got a vpn bundled with an antimalware I can probably use but it’s the same story, (I doubt over here they’ll catch me torrenting) but does the vpn need to be specifically designed for torreting?

I’m more worried about the last point than the first. Stuff like Proton VPN wouldn’t respond to a law enforcement subpoena? If you mean buying illegal things such as drugs I don’t care; I’d use it for movies. I worry if this VPN may be good for pirating games even though I don’t have plans to do that right now. I wonder if such a solution is better than an antimalware VPN?

Their life plan seems like a perfect solution, and if they don’t have antivirus VPN bundled with M365 on Amazon Black Friday, or if you believe this isn’t the best solution, that lifetime VPN may be good.

you would or you would NOT use it for piracy?

I’ll try it then, thanks :)

I should also have said I sometimes use it for MMO gaming, in case my ISP fucks up and I need to play for a week or so before it’s fixed (it just happened this week). I didn’t remember this when I wrote the thread

this has been on my watch list for a while, seems like cheap and reliable but I’ve heard mixed feelings on reddit

do you need a powerful PC for that though?

Exactly my thoughts. I already missed a deal on GMG twice because they’re not super clear when they’re discounts ends, and I were too late. I won’t buy a game full price on steam so unofficial key resellers are probably what I’ll use.

Since the money won’t go to the developers for sure, I thought I may as well pirate it, but yeah I’m a bit concerned about safety tbh. It isn’t anime or netflix we’re talking about.

I managed to download a legti ISO by spoofing my user agent to linux, I’ll check the checksum of the two ISO I have asap

I still can’t understand how to download the ISO, all I can do is downloading a tool to create a ISO… I’d like to download the sama exact win10 Italian version in order to compare checksum, since I’ve done a lot of setup already on the laptop

I’ve done quite a of setup already so it’d be annoying, even changing password is. I’ll see what I can do next month as I’m to buys the next weekdays and weekends

I read this on MASgrave and got scared “Windows 10 download from https://www.microsoft.com/software-download isn’t recommended because it uses an ESD file to generate ISO and that process sometimes may generate corrupt ISO which can not be verified with known checksums.”

I’d like to know if the ISO masgrave distributes are considered safe, if the script they make is considered safe then I’d tend to consider even the ISO… I wouldn’t like to reinstall everything again (besides I already put sensitive data on it like passwords and stuff)

mhh, I already installed everything downloading from MASgrave website, do you think those ISO are dangerous? This is version it-it_windows_10_consumer_editions_version_22h2_updated_may_2024_x64_dvd_49ddadb6.iso (Windows 10 consumer 22H2 Italian)
