Do you utilize a dedicated AV like Bitdefender when sailing? Or do you still trust Windows Defender to take care of the higher risk while doing this?
  • I switched back to Windows recently. Windows defender is really good, but I also use ClamAV when I need a deep scan offline that reports with a log. I only need it when I connect other people's USB drives to my computer, though. Windows Defender catches things really well and doesn't interfere with software installation, just like ClamAV. I'd say if you are looking for something free and advanced, ClamAV is what you need if you need to scan something. I hate Windows Defender's offline deep scan because it does not produce a log you can access. ClamAV does this.

  • What type of piracy do you use the most?
  • I have become a streaming junkie since I got a chromecast. I even stream pirated shit I already pirated and saved to a drive. Actually streaming pirated shit I already downloaded and saved to a drive years ago. I just hope certain apps remain available for this magic forever. I think it's key to own a dumb TV (not a smart TV). I don't need no 4K. Got me a Ch-cast HD. Got me some wi-fi. Got me some Stremio.

  • The Lemmy.World Terms of Service now in effect
  • As I said before, lemmy.world is now a corporate whore. They deleted my account instantly when I said so from my lemmy.world account. Now I can say so and it’s more difficult. Go suck my balls, lemmy world. Having a code of conduct was good. Having a terms of service is corporate shill terrritory and you’ll suck my balls forever.

  • What was a profound moment that a video game caused you to experience, and why?
  • When I was 13 a friend of mine and I spent the whole summer after swimming at the trailer park pool playing Super Mario 3 until we beat it. We did a deep study of the game together and beat it together. First platform I ever beat and first gay sex I ever had to help me out in the orientation department. 1988 was a nice year for me. I haven't lived in a trailer park ever since, but the community swimming pool was nice.

  • How Do You Combat Anti-Adware Blockers on Android?
  • Yeah. It gets irritating but this is what you ultimately have to do, anyway, because if you stick with whatever web site filtering out its blockers, it's just going to wind up giving you a Trojan. It's actually the web site's purpose in existing if it's that aggressive in detecting a blocked. The content you download from it more than likely has malware or some other shit in it. Getting that message is a.sign to avoid that place.

  • Anti-Piracy Lessons Enter the School Curriculum: Are You a Thief?
  • Well, let's see... At my school, smoking was bad. I started smoking. My school taught us that drinking alcohol was very bad. I started drinking with my friends. We learned at school that the USSR was going to attack us with nukes at any moment. So I started doing an annoying impersonation of Boris and Natascha every time we had a "hide under your desk drill" that was quite entertaining. We were warned in social studies class about the dangers of using fireworks and cherry bombs. My friends and I were on the constant hunt of old cherry bombs. Ronald Reagan's administration started a physical fitness program that gave awards to kids that passed a certain test in gym glass. A lot of us didn't try hard on purpose because it looked silly and many of us, to our shock, still won the award because it was too easy. So, perhaps the schools are creating a whole new generation of super pirates. Some of those kids probably don't even know what pirating is. They'll find out now. And don't forget, boys and girls, ketchup is a vegetable. If ketchup is a vegetable, relish is, too. So make sure you eat up all your relish we give you at lunch time, with some ketchup on top.

  • [Question] If using linux , where are your sources of games and what are cs.rin.ru clean steam files and how to use them?
  • It probably won't. But hey, you have your "project" that will get you into Linux more. It always starts with one annoying thing. For me it was a trading card game quite a few years ago. I just kept looking stuff up until I figured out how to ask questions so people could help me get the dll files and configure WINE to work with it. One of the worst Fitgirl repacks I used on Windows was Grand Theft Auto IV. It worked, kind of, but it was wonky as hell. I've installed a number of them on Windows that were just too broken to even bother with. A lot of them are really good, though. Also, I did some research for you. It appears that even people who bought the game on Steam in 2021 had no sound. So, it might just be that the developers of the game screwed up and Fitgirl repacked the version from 2021 that came with no sound to paying customers.

  • [Question] If using linux , where are your sources of games and what are cs.rin.ru clean steam files and how to use them?
  • Yep, downvoted, because yet another person who wants to point and click on shit in Linux and get perfect results. That's not how it works, buddy. Linux is not a point-and-clicky user happy OS. You have to know shit about it and its associated software sometimes to make stuff work correctly. It's getting to be a "works out of the box" OS for some distros, but even the ones that are "user friendly" need some tinkering. Do you want to use Linux successfully? Learn about how it works so that you can ask a question that gets you the solution to the problem. Do you want to press buttons and have stuff "just work?" Don't use Linux. Use something else. Do you want the software to just work perfectly when you press a couple of buttons? Piracy isn't for you, either. Study up, learn to ask the right questions, and take a class on how to not be totally rude. Downvote all you want. You'll still have to play Inscryption with no sound until you figure out how to ask the question the right way so you can get an answer that solves your problem.

  • [Question] If using linux , where are your sources of games and what are cs.rin.ru clean steam files and how to use them?
  • They're not even asking for help in the right way. They're like, "This thing doesn't have sound. I want to have sound. Tell me how to make it have sound." It doesn't work that way. It isn't voodoo magic and the people that read this aren't psychic. If there's a problem with the sound, then all kinds of factors have to be eliminated until the one factor preventing the sound production is identified. That means looking into logs, the install script, the WINE settings, blah blah blah. This individual is looking at the internet as some sort of magical incantation medium. It's not a friggin' genie. It's like asking the internet, "Please give me a million dollars."
