    Hacking Emulation Gaming Is it morally correct to pirate games that cannot be obtained officially from the company that made/published them?

    I went with not moral, but it's really 'mostly no'. That is: if you buy it, I see it as morally acceptable if you pirate it for other platforms or emulate it. I don't think it's fair to expect companies/developers to port their games to every platform or maintain it forever. If you buy it, it's...

    What one gaming thing you wish you bought in the past?

    I just wish I started magic:the gathering sooner. Black lotus is now a months wage at the least, so collecting that set would've been more lucrative than my education. Can't say the same for electronics. I've bought a launch day 3ds and en much later axl version. Also a via. All are collecting...

    Donald Trump ordered to pay $355M for fraudulent business practices in NY (stop editorializing titles)

    Sorry, but this trial was a civil one. It was about the dealings of the company being fraudulent, not Trump personally. He just happens to be the CEO of it (and thus responsible). It's also worth noting that Carrol' didn't demand prison time, so it's not fair to expect it thus far. Thus far...

    Donald Trump ordered to pay $355M for fraudulent business practices in NY (stop editorializing titles)

    The most hilarious part during this trial was when the Trump administration brought forth a professor (Eli Bartov) who said there was no fraud... But admitted the errors in the bookkeeping the organization was being suited for in the first place. ... And it turned out he was payed by the...

    Is my wiiu dead?

    Forgot to mention that one: tried it, doesn't make a difference, I'm afraid. Ouch... That's certainly a possibility. I'll see later if I can open it (never done that).

    Is my wiiu dead?

    Here's the situation: I got a launch day wiiu back in the day, did one of the earlier hacks (haxchi 2.3 according to files on the SD card. Oh, and set up as cold boot) but then completely lost all track of further updates. Both from hacks (I never attempted tiramisu) or from nintendo (I can't...

    What games does steamdeck support? please!

    Protondb.com is also a good source. It crowdsourced the question since proton came into existence. Even now: when a game is marked unsupported, you'll usually find people using tweaks to get it to work as it should (eg stealth inc 2 required changing one shortcut to the game to make it 100%...

    Is electoral college anti-democracy?

    Hmm... Anti democratic is a bit harsh. From what I gather (as a foreigner), it's just a remnant of a time when it was otherwise impossible to properly organize an election in a'country' as large as the US. without modern communication tools, I probably would resort to something like that as...

    Does Nikki Haley has a shot at the nomination?

    Let's get one thing out of the way: no, I don't support republicans. Heck, even mainstream democrats are too rightwing for my taste, but by lack of alternative they've got my (reluctant) back. Yet...the US presidency has its influence in the world, especially if one of the candidates tries to...

    Donald Trump ordered to pay 83 million to his victim for defamation (stop editorializing titles)

    You could also see it as pure speculation investment. Betting against Trump in lawsuits is quite lucrative, and this one wasn't even the most likely he'd lose. But you're probably right: the lawsuit was probably aimed more at bringing down Trump than justice for Carroll. Quite an easy...

    Donald Trump ordered to pay 83 million to his victim for defamation (stop editorializing titles)

    Anyone want to gamble on how long it'll take before he continues to defame her? I...admit at first I didn't really get why there had to be a second trial. He was trialed and judged by a jury, which totally invalids the whole "it's just a political witchhunt" bullshit. If he can't convince a...

    What system has the best interface?

    Are custom interfaces allowed? Because I've got my wii tweaked so it launches into a custom tailored wiiflow interface, complete with all the covers and categories nicely sorted out. :)

    What is your comfort game(s)?

    logic wiz sudoku on tablet. Liked it so much that I bought a lifetime subscription (about 20 bucks...probably my highest payed price for an android app), but I still play it almost daily around two years later. I have to say that as a father I'm restricted in this kinds of games, as...

    Ubisoft says "Get Comforable not owning video games"

    Meh... I'm already pretty comfortable not owning ubisoft games since they still sold software. I just hope they're getting comfortable only holding people's money and not owning it.

    Rockstar's parent company Take-Two files trademark opposition dispute for Remedy's new logo

    Oh... And here I am, teaching my toddler the basics of letters. Apparently, my four year old child is taking her first steps into being sued by a multinational. ... I'm so proud of her. B-)

    Microsoft plans to add "Copilot" key to Windows 11 keyboards

    I can't read the article. It's the 'biggest change in years' meant to be sarcasm, or is it just showcasing that Microsoft is being pretty useless right now? :unsure: Also: i think the F1 key is having an identity crisis.

    "Remasters" are nothing but double-dipping from publishers too lazy to come up with something new.

    Though it's technically correct, I don't see the 'too lazy' as fair. I mean... I don't think it's an exaggeration that it's a hundred times easier to make a remaster than a new game (presuming we're not talking indies or something), and the chances of breaking even is, as such, much more likely...

    Biden: "You can’t be pro-insurrection and pro-America."

    Kind of weird, but i actually agree with you. Not about anything Trump related, but it says pro America. Not specifically the us, but the continent is, after all, America as well. And the us government has some history staging and attempting insurrections against governments they don't like...
