Are you smarter than a 5th Grader?

As someone that’s never lived in the US, I challenged myself to beat the US version and it’s embarrassing how many tries it took (around 8 I think)

It’s a good game. I liked it!

I’d love to become rich, so I can keep on pirating as a statement. Or to show a rich guy how much better pirating is as a service.

Maybe then we can get their attention and prove that enshittification is the problem, and not the cost.

How would you feel if I took it from you?

Correction: How do I take it from you?

I think it’s time we move from threats to actions.

Yeah, but it’s not a new war. It’s an eternal war, and when those on top push too much, we push back. We call those stages revolutions, and maybe it’s time to remind those on top that when a revolution happens, their heads get separated from their bodies. So either give us back some freedoms, or blood will be spilt. And it won’t be our blood.

I’d recommend yt-dlp for downloads.

If you want to stream, you can use yt-dlp in combination with mpv,

OR

You can just install FreeTube if you want SponsorBlock as well.

+1 to this but also, If you’re on Linux, I’d recommend Freetube.

It’s on Flathub and allows you to use SponsorBlock.

+1 on Tiny11 and you can make your iso through winutil too, making it easier.

Not THAT far. But 32GB RAM is getting more common, though I haven’t heard of many people using 64, let alone more than that.

Also, storage is usually not that extreme, though multiple terabytes are also getting more common on the higher end.

Just this month, I upgraded to 16GB RAM and 1TB SSD so it isn’t that extreme for most people.

CPU and GPU - wise, most people aren’t running the best of the best, and there are still plenty of people using 10-series Nvidia GPUs, with most people seemingly using 20-series or 30-series GPUs, (and usually not the best cards for these generations)

Here’s my advice for Installing Windows:

1. When getting an ISO from M$, select “English International” even if you’re in the US, to avoid a lot of bloatware.

2. Use Chris Titus’ Winutil. It’s open source and really easy to use.

In terms of usability, it certainly can be. It’s a UNIX system, and you can easily set up a tiling WM and get an experience similar to Linux, with homebrew, neovim, terminals, etc.

You’re also not dealing with the typical adware from Windows.

You make a good point. I guess I didn’t even think of that. Certainly likely.

To be honest, there seem to be many stories of such content, but not so many of such people. And I find that quite interesting. So either they hide themselves well, or there are less of them but they distribute the content widely, or as you said, the gov is simply using it as an excuse.

Wait, so can you use the free trial to grab some free games and them cancel? Getting free games legitimately, maybe flipping some keys for a profit?

It still reminds me of how it took me about a decade to finally realise the connection between steam (as a gaseous substance), Steam (the platform), valve (as in that rotating thing to release pressure) Valve (the corporation), steampowered (the domain name) and steam-powered (as in a steam engine).

Cool, but is there any reason to use this over Searx?

My XManager app works so I don’t care

I still use the one on Reddit (courtesy of r/ piracy), but I know there is a mirror of it hosted somewhere else. I just don’t have the link for it.

It was on the megathread, direct downloads for films and tv shows.

It got brought down because it shared a server with another service, which was used by some “Epstein friends” to upload you-know-what illegal material and that’s what brought it down.

Update: I managed to get it. I still haven’t even gone through S5, I just had Seasons 5-7 downloaded so I wanted to make sure I have it all. I wasn’t the biggest fan of S4 either tbh. So we’ll see where things go from here.

Edit: Also, I really appreciate the lack of spoilers!
