Everyone that had a CD burner in their PC was hounded to make copies

They have an exception to IP laws they renew every 3 years or something. It's legal

Cancelled?

#

Doubt

velvet summit

archive.org roms that are downloadable are mostly legit (in the sense that no copyright holder cares anymore)
they do have some that havent past the legal timer, but the team at archive.org does set it to readonly (no downloads) untill that timer ends

Anyways gonna go finish up Reacher, good catching up with yall

rancid juniper
#

My abandonware is also a great site

safe cape
rancid juniper
#

For games off the market or just straight up abandoned

keen shale
#

Possibly bad PSU or also bad electricity circuit in your house

#

Bad ground or neutal maybe

velvet summit
#

i'd assume bad ground

#

or maybe they're just very staticy

keen shale
#

It is 100% illegal to DL ROM's in the US. Emulators are legal, distributing ROM's is 100% not.

Abandonware is another story in itself

archive.org is a non-profit charity with the goal of archiving all sorts of media so it doesnt become lost; based in the usa afaik

#

ugh

velvet summit

#

Even stil, Archive.org is still constantly in court fighting to keep some of the materials they have

velvet summit
#

true

#

companies dont want their crap archived for whatever reason

keen shale
# slate coyote im replacing it

You should. Get the value out of your hard earned money. Yes, it means being without a PC for a bit but get something good for the money you spent

#

Those companies probably hold copyright on the material

velvet summit
#

tbf, the wayback machine catches companies trying to pull a fast one on consumers

#

it caught i forget which company trying to not support grandfathered in lifetime accounts

#

i think it was filmora

#

Isn't T-Mobile getting flack for that right now? Price for life wasn't really price for life?

velvet summit
#

idk

keen shale
#

Yep, they are. I checked.

#

I just never buy into those things because in the end, they can't keep the same price for life. It's not feasible

I still have MS-DOS 6 on CD

velvet summit

apparently there was some lady that has a car that's made of pretty much only components with lifetime warranties so her car just has been running for decades with no cost of repair

keen shale
#

Yeah, it's some like 1955 Chevrolet or something

velvet summit
#

no idea if it was real but kinda funny

keen shale
#

oh, it's real

velvet summit

born too late for a lifetime warranty car
born too late to buy a house

tranquil pebble

real

#

idk if this is the largest it oof though.... actually nvm it probably is

#

considering how many companies are on the internet nowadays

#

and how reliant society has become on them

#

(for first world countries at least)

tranquil pebble
#

the bigger issue is how much infrastructure was relying on the same security provider

#

with quite clearly not enough oversight

My co-workers child is still stuck in an airport because of this

velvet summit
#

damn

#

flights still not going?

Not like, child child but 18+ kid

Delta is still knackered

rancid juniper

Yes

velvet summit

isnt delta that ultra budget airliner or something

keen shale
keen shale
#

Delta is NOT budget lol

velvet summit
#

i forget which airliner that was dirt cheap and practically a plane advertisement

#

oh

keen shale
#

Well, they're dirt cheap until you realise you have to pay for carry on, drink, snack, basically everything

velvet summit
#

idk many companies that are outside of domestic canada flights lmao

mortal grail
#

Microsoft has blamed the EU for imposing anti-monopoly laws on their OS security, in a hilarious twist to throw shade back at the only power trying to block big tech at doing things

rancid juniper
#

that falloff tho

mortal grail
#

As if running non-proprietary ever changed anything

velvet summit
#

i bring a waterbottle to fill at the airport

keen shale
#

This is true. Their seats also have no padding. It's basically a brick

velvet summit
#

and then drink that on the flight

keen shale
#

I've flown frontier, it's rough

tranquil pebble
keen shale
#

They just bricked half the world, of course it's gonna fall. Buy now, profit later

velvet summit
#

quite recently, i flew flair airlines (i think it's some domestic company here? idk, i didnt do much research)
they're very cheap, but everything is a paid addon

#

no seat adjustment

tranquil pebble
#

they might have to rename to Crowdstrike Folding soon

velvet summit

very sad

keen shale

Ya, that's Frontier in the US

I love how there's zero mention of how a simple live test before release would've been the answer

velvet summit

tis a chaotic decade thus far

mortal grail
#

And how a C++ programmer found the error and posted it to twitter

MS can stuff it, that's a horrible article lol

mortal grail
#

BLAME THE EUROPEANS

rancid juniper
#

crazy work

velvet summit
#

it was the italians

#

i saw them do it

#

revenge for the broken pasta

tranquil pebble
#

MS points the blame at everyone that isnt themselves... kinda like Intel likes to do

rancid juniper
#

shots fired

mortal grail
#

Which is exactly what that is

#

EU has been a pain in the ass for big tech in the last 10 years

rancid juniper
#

i mean they're probably the only ones trying to keep them in check ig

#

the U.S wouldn't care much

mortal grail
#

Well just recently they went after MS for aggressive use of their 365 suite

#

Not even just them, FTC as well iirc

tranquil pebble
mortal grail
#

"sensationalism"

keen shale
#

That's not misleading, it's just a horrible stance for MS to take

#

That's what I really meant

mortal grail
#

And yet, it's on every tabloid

tranquil pebble
#

Well Microsoft having bad takes is what they are good at

mortal grail
#

That's why I find it hilarious

#

It's a free kick to them

tranquil pebble
#

and yes I am still salty about Xbox shutting down Tango

mortal grail
#

EU will just come down harder on MS

rancid juniper
velvet summit
#

they blamed eu because they forced microsoft to allow access to their kernel to a few security providers it seems

rancid juniper
#

if the FTC actually won the case this wouldn't happen

#

😭

mortal grail
#

Hell even android isn't very secure at all

keen shale
#

Nothing is secure anymore if people are determined to access it

mortal grail
#

Throw out most AV company income and there goes even any moderate semblance of effort

velvet summit
#

i swear nothing is secure nowaday
only things that are secure are airgapped network devices

#

and that's also only if you have physical security

mortal grail
keen shale
#

I used to install secure entry systems for some places. They asked about security, I said the best security is to not put it on the network. You want pics? Put them on a drive and transfer them that way lol

mortal grail
#

In the same way a lock is only so good against a lockpick, the difficulty at least adds deterrence

velvet summit
#

tbf, most companies are using linux for their backends? so there would still be a need for proper security on that end

keen shale
#

Almost every single one was airgapped

mortal grail
#

Thieves don't go for harder targets, they look for an easier hit

keen shale
#

UNless it's something they want

mortal grail
#

Sure, and I'm not gonna call it infallible

velvet summit
mortal grail
#

You're right about that for sure

#

But it's not like having it around does nothing

keen shale
#

Sure, they'll pass by something secure until that one person with a wild hair really wants it

mortal grail
#

Yes exactly

#

It deters that other 90%

keen shale
#

You just never know when that one person will want it

mortal grail
#

Absolutely

velvet summit

keen shale
#

It's always been a game of "do what you can" until something happens, then learn from it and get better

#

Both sides do that

mortal grail
#

But it stops the 5 minute glory idiots from trying anyway

#

Rather than a targeted professional

velvet summit

I have a company car that's a somewhat target for thieves. in bad areas I pull a random ignition fuse that no one will check 😂

that's not particularly assuring

They dont randomly blow up, people dont maintain them or they just send them on the track without prep

Nothing wrong with 24 PSI if the engine is built right

I aint trust that 300hp I3, it might be a toyota but that still seems close to its limit

That's a heck ton of power out of a 1.6

So do be careful with that

rough zinc
#

Subaru Turbocharged Boxers you gotta change that oil every 3k miles otherwise its dying early on you

And any mod other than a catback exhaust absolutely needs a tune

Never, ever follow manufacturers oil change interval. Always do it sooner

rough zinc

Yeah manufacturer says 6k interval

elfin mural
#

"Lifetime" fluids are a lie too

keen shale
#

My Chevy says 7500 miles, nope, I do it every 5

elfin mural
#

Because they mean warranty period

rough zinc
#

They also recommend either 0W20 or 5W30 meanwhile 5W30 is known to blow those engines

keen shale
#

Dad's Mustang had "lifetime trans fluid". nope, torque convert poofed at 96K miles

#

5W30 only to be used in hot climates

rough zinc
#

Yeah up here in upstate NY, 5W30 is kind of a death sentence

keen shale
#

Heck, my SIlverado Diesel takes 0W20

My BMW X5 (rip buddy), E450 and C350 all take 5W30

This WRX is the first to take something else

Shame, i stocked up on a lot of it lol

Fractured rods make for tight clearances, thus lighter oils.

How long can you keep chicken frozen for? I got some breasts that have been living in my freezer for like 2 months now

I mean it depends when you bought it as well

But you can keep a lot of things frozen indefinitely

It's good to throw out old stuff after maybe a year

Though technically it's ok, too long can break it down
