    Russia may legalize some forms of piracy to combat sanctions

    That's kinda my point - that nobody seems to divide people from the state. Also, never voted for Putin and actively donated to OVD-Info, so I'm as far away from "putin stans" as a Russian can be.

    Russia may legalize some forms of piracy to combat sanctions

    Russian citizenry never asked for this war either, and in long-term, it already promises to ruin lives of innocent working-class Russians for generations to come - especially with such initiatives as cutting sick people off the medicine or disallowing them access to outside world. I fully stand...

    Gary Bowser has been sentenced to 3+ years in prison

    Both PSP and DS were screwed up heavily by rampant piracy during their heyday, so I wouldn't say it's as harmless for the publishers as some may want to make it sound like - if anything, the draconian anti-piracy measures we see on consoles and handhelds now were a direct response to that mess...

    Microsoft clarifies stance on deactivating developer accounts

    When content creator screws up his research, makes a big deal with clickbaity article out of it, and refuses to elaborate when beng corrected, then whether he's a good dev or not is kinda irrelevant. Hell, we may be jealous of his admittedly competent emulation-making chops (I'm aspiring to...

    Microsoft clarifies stance on deactivating developer accounts

    I think MVG just didn't do proper research and jumped to assumptions with this one - I mean, "Microsoft is taking away dev-mode!" is a stretchy claim to make when all we have is a single GBATemp thread and a bunch of isolated instances.

    Team Xecuter's Gary Bowser ordered to pay $10,000,000 fine in civil case

    They haven't blocked TOR - just the main site (for some RKN-related bullshittery), with software and mirrors still working fine. Same for most VPNs - it's a bit more inconvenient to access them, but they run perfectly well, including seemingly "restricted" ones. That aside, our government does...

    Team Xecuter's Gary Bowser ordered to pay $10,000,000 fine in civil case

    Bankruptcy or wage garnishment, iirc. Basically, he'll either have to auction off most his belongings to write off the fines, or pay a certain amount of cash from his income for the rest of his life, depending on decision.

    Team Xecuter's Gary Bowser ordered to pay $10,000,000 fine in civil case

    Wack idea - Nintendo has an official branch in Russia and is in partnership with Tencent in China.

    Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition trailer

    I just think it costs too much for what it is and kinda botches the aesthetics of original games, simple as that. I can appreciate good remakes and remasters when they show themselves (heck, I always recommend Yakuza Kiwami 1/2 and recent Spyro The Dragon remaster over originals), but this just...

    Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition trailer

    Not a huge fan of how remasters look, tbh. Models and environment seem to be technically better, but also come off more plain when put together, as if a lot of artistic decisions from original games were lost in transition (especially the stellar lightwork and palette choices). Character models...

    Animal Crossing October 15th Direct - Paid DLC coming to New Horizons

    New Horizons had way less content than New Leaf, and it took Nintendo 1.5 years to catch up to most of the features that were included in a previous title from the get go, so complaints are all fairly valid. Fans weren't even asking for something super-groundbreaking - they're just frustrated...

    Chapter 2 of Toby Fox's Deltarune surprise launches on PC for free today

    Fandoms do be like that, especially when they grow so sudden. Thankfully, people grew on SoSorry over time, and Samael himself seems to be pretty chill about the whole situation, so all well that ends well. As for Toby, I think the only way to truly know why he doesn't show up as often is to ask...

    Chapter 2 of Toby Fox's Deltarune surprise launches on PC for free today

    During development of Undertale, there were "add your character into the game" kickstarter rewards, and one of them was won by a guy named Samael, who decided to insert his chubby fetish fursona into the game. Toby Fox obliged by redesigning said fursona into a hidden boss named SoSorry -...

    Chapter 2 of Toby Fox's Deltarune surprise launches on PC for free today

    He's not too social in general, development of Undertale was also on a silent side aside of some obligatory updates. Can't blame him much considering the SoSorry/Samael drama, tbh.

    Gamescom 2021 - Xbox conference roundup

    A solid conference! Hoping for Xbox Series shortage to be over soon though, so I can actually buy one - kinda ridiculous that new generation exists for almost a year at this point, yet hardware itself is too unavailable to experience it.

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's where stremio comes to play never got a letter about it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
