consumer level copyright infringement is generally a civil matter, not a criminal one. you’d have to be doing something like selling bootleg dvds for it to turn into a criminal issue.

For me it was buying star trek the next generation on blu-ray and getting annoyed with having to flip through fifty disks to watch an episode.

hah, computers have had the same drive rail layout for so long that i didn’t even notice! .^_.

what, do i dare ask, are the computer holes?

yeah the steam version is the newer port that doesnt have the issue. the one im talkin about came out in like 1999 or something, the steam version is based on the 2012 version. and yes it was a mess.

The original PC port used MIDI music with a custom soundfont, however due to PlayStation and PC differences the resultant music is not the same. It can be replaced with the FFNx FF7Music mod. While the original PlayStation version outputs at 60 FPS with 3D elements running at lower frame rates, the PC port outputs at different framerates at different parts of the game: this causes the combat camera and some menu mechanics to have lower frame rates, but it can mitigated using mods.[2] Just like the PlayStation release, the resolution of the FMVs in the game are 320 x 224.[3]

I should play the newer FF7 pc port sometime… i played the original port published by Eidos and it’s such a trainwreck. It relied on midi sound and came with yamaha soundbank software you were supposed to use to load samples into your soundcard or something? I never got it working and the music sounded like it was being played on recorders and harmonicas.

arch wiki is good, been using that since i migrated to cachyos in september (had been running win 11 pro for years prior to that). only major issue i had was display related lol, i use a tv that needs a custom EDID to expose 120hz mode and it was an absolute nightmare trying to generate it with linux. ended up using a linux tool to dump my existing EDID then popping it into CRU via wine to generate the new one. Works pretty damn well now, have to say.

lol frfr. these people have NO clue what tariffs are meant for.

It’s all just one big ass blast.

would you let me go with “it was a joke”? 😂

It’s not him having money, it’s him spending on one of the most destructive vehicles (environment-wise) as you can buy. Multiple times. I do like that he has kept Valve private, and that he seems to understand what we gamers actually value. But that doesn’t make him a good person or Valve a good company.

Nothing, I guess.

Toooooo bad he also owns multiple yachts and people just kinda give him a pass for it.

That’s fine and perfectly valid, Tim Sweeney is a dick, I just get perturbed if people call a fairly innocuous piece of software malware. Like if nothing else at least the devs are making a chunk of cash for these freebie giveaways. I even saw something the other day where a dev said they saw Steam sales double because of a free giveaway on Epic.

malware? bro you can redeem the games on their website and use an alternate launcher to install them.

Does this do the same thing as turning off duck.ai in settings?

wish granted, uwu.

so… they arent allowing admins to uninstall it. they’re letting admins ask their users very nicely to not reinstall it.

I’m hungry for dim sum now…
