Damn I didn’t even consider that honestly! It was an impulse buy because I was looking for something new to play. Can’t really refund either as I got it through a cdkey site. Feeling conflicted, but it’s been really fun 🙁

I’m addicted to Broken Arrow. I haven’t played a war RTS since World In Conflict. I’m pretty terrible at it and it’s taking time to learn how to put together a deck, but I’m really enjoying the multiplayer.

I might actually gain a tiny, minuscule bit of respect for him if he officially changes his name to Rocket Hitler

Nice. Mines an older Clara I bought about 5 years ago. I personally don’t have the use for a color screen, but for $10 I guess why not! Most books I read don’t have any images besides the cover

I installed KO Reader as soon as I got it and never looked back. Not as pretty as the standard Nickel (?) OS but more customisable.

I love having an e-reader. I read so much more because of it. Much more convenient, not having to worry about heavy books, holding open pages, no need to worry about proper lighting for reading. Light and small enough to bring everywhere. I will buy another immediately once this one dies.

I love my Kobo. I installed KO Reader on it and have Calibre for managing my ebooks.

Get all my ebooks from z-library or Anna’s archive.

I think the Stremio + RD combo made piracy too easy and lots of users newer to piracy panicked when they saw the announcement and started asking for refunds and alternatives before anything even happened. I also started using RD a short while before the announcement and there has been no change for me at all, everything still works like when I first started using it.

Can’t wait to see the mental gymnastics subreddit moderators will perform to defend this!

Elfhosted has a status page: https://status.elfhosted.com/ that includes the non elfhosted Torrentio.

According to the Torrentio dev their VPS has been blocked so they have to find new hosting: https://github.com/TheBeastLT/torrentio-scraper/issues/288

I’ve got an easynews usenet subscription I’m using as a backup.

I started playing Darktide around a month and a half ago and I’ve been hopelessly addicted since

This article is from 2022. I received an email from YouTube yesterday for the Turkey family plan is going up to 115.99 TRY from 59.99.

I’ve been trying to progress in Forza Motorsport, but the infinite loading screen bug is stopping me from playing. After almost every second race it doesn’t save my progress and I have to kill the game and lose all the progress because it refuses to save.

Also I got a new controller for PC, can anyone recommend good controller games that are on PC Gamepass?

I mean I do grab the torrent link from the fitgirl site, but I find the torrent faster to download than the direct download links.

You shouldn’t trust anything uploaded there by IGGGames. They’ve been caught before adding miners to their files. I downloaded the rune release somewhere else seeing as they were the uploader on 1337x. I only really use 1337x for fitgirl repacks.

I’m still new to Lemmy so I’m not sure if there are any communities here for it. On Reddit there is r/trackers which has good info on which private trackers are worth trying to get into. There was also r/OpenSignups which posted which trackers had open signups, but it seems like they’ve shut it down since the protests.

Many of the top private trackers rely on reputation. Which is why some of them are notoriously hard to get into. They usually also have active mods, admins and forums. They also generally have posting rules for torrents. Anyone wanting to spread malicious torrents would likely get their account banned in short order once it gets reported. not to mention quite a number of them have their own internal release groups that can be trusted.

While it’s not impossible, it’s far less likely to be an issue on any well run private tracker.
