I want to try out Fallout New Vegas after having watched the TV show, and beforeiplay.com recommends I use a few QoL mods, in particular one for higher resolution screens (I'm playing on a 4K monitor).

So I lookup "fallout mtui", end up on the mod's page, hit download... and am greeted with a screen telling me I need to sign up for an account.

I obviously do not want to create an account on such a shady website, so I tried using a throwaway email... rejected (of course). I then said "fuck it" and tried registering with my real email address... also rejected. "E-mail address is not valid". Well, it is, this is my primary e-mail address, has been for more than 10 years, and I've successfully used it to register on dozens of websites, including Amazon, eBay, various banks, Steam...

I found several Reddit posts about this issues, dating back to several years to a few months. Apparently, registration on Nexus Mods has been broken for very long, with no fix on the horizon.

So it seems it is impossible to download anything from there. Is there a mirror somewhere? Or are all these mods no longer possible to access?

It probably comes from the French verb "menacer" which means "to threaten".

This guy's strawman arguments have already been destroyed by plenty of people who actually know what they're talking about and don't have an interest in keeping the current situation.

Dolphin doesn't emulate the Wii U and never will. The devs have explained several times that the Wii U is too different.

The Ryujinx dev is Brazilian IIRC.

It has system access yet doesn't prevent cheating.

Threadiverse refers specifically to the subset of the Fediverse with threaded conversations, like Lemmy and Mbin.

I don't. I find them hard to read.

The subscription is only required to buy it, and only until mid January. It's possible to use Alarmo without an active NSO subscription.

It depends. I got a new MasterCard debit card last week, and the numbers are on the front. Only the CVV is on the back.

Resident Evil and The Last of Us have nukes in the story. It didn't help at all.
