Denuvo sues anonymous game cracker ‘voices38’ over alleged DRM circumvention — seeks damages after Anti-Tamper protections bypassed in 26 games in c/games@lemmy.world
[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

I don’t think so because the accused isn’t jailed, but I’m just a guy on the internet so I could be wrong.

I probably shouldn’t comment as I haven’t read the article (SHAME) but my assumption is this is the first step to compel platforms the cracker may have used to providing identifiable information on them.

I’m a lamb gyro guy but I’ll be damned if I don’t get a side of falafel with it. Just too delicious

I’m using Wipr 2 on iOS. The error is an iframe timeout. A lot of recipie websites do it too, same error type which is definitely intentional because it directs you to disable Adblock.

I haven’t been getting many ads, but I have been having trouble with webpages that break themselves when an ad element doesn’t load on the page. Urban dictionary comes to mind. Would love to hear if someone has a workaround for that

There’s always Anna’s Archive or Z Library. Those copies won’t ever go away

Yeah I’m waiting for the Apple TV refresh for the same reason

I have an LG tv. They ask you to sign a EULA any time the voice command button is pressed on the remote. I hit it by accident sometimes and reject the terms

My father always said, the ocean washes away all your sins. He meant that it helps get rid of a hangover, but I find that it helps in a lot of other ways too.

What can we do about the increasing problem of these self-deleting bot accounts? (lemmy.world)
 

As some of you may be aware, over the past few weeks there have been an increasing number of what I suspect are bots which will share one or even a few posts, all relevant to the communities they are shared in, at which point the account self-deletes. I’m torn as the stories are relevant, but they give me the impression of a narrative attack. I’ve seen only one of these accounts actually comment before deletion, otherwise they post and immediately nuke the account.

I have tagged mods and admins but have not heard any recognition on the problem. It’s also notable that by my impression this issue is getting worse. I noticed yesterday that communities I subscribe to which previously have not had this problem are now starting to receive these kinds of posts.

I want the fediverse to be a place to communicate with real people in good faith; this manner of posting runs contrary to that. So that begs the questions, is this actually a problem, and if so, what can be done about it?

Phone controller for Portrait orientation (lemmy.world)
 

In my search for the ultimate retro gaming machine I’ve been surprised by the limited options when it comes to controllers for iOS and android. While there are plenty of controllers that you can clip your phone onto in landscape orientation, I haven’t seen any that are designed to play in portrait mode. I see several benefits to a clip on controller for portrait mode. Pinball games, Tetris, and DS games all play best in portrait mode. Plus, a portrait mode controller would be close to the original gameboy in terms of form-factor.

Anyone else looking for something like this? Have I missed a product that’s out there? Maybe once I get a 3D printer I can cannibalize a Bluetooth controller and experiment.
