  • I personally find it rather infuriating that swapping those is made so difficult, and to this day don’t know who has more usecase for media keys and varied power buttons over function keys.

    And the worst thing is, if the upper row defaults as mefia keys, and toggling Fn to be function keys by default, you also toggle numpad to the right side of the keyboard. Don’t get me wrong, I like numpad, but I quite don’t like losing half of my keyboard, because keyboard manufacturers don’t know what keys should be behind the Fn.




  • Well, if you avoid the games with ads, it reflects poorly on profits, and maybe someone might mention to the shareholders that the reason people won’t play their game is the invasive ads.

    The reason why they still have their poopy launcher is that people adapted them, because tolerating the launcher was the requirement for them to (legally) play their games. Putting games behind a launcher did not teduce the profits enough to not continue doing so.

    So yes, the way to combat this is to avoid their games thst implement ads.





  • If I remember correctly from my hazy years of school philosophy classes, it was Thomas Aquinas who suggested it. Who was a friar, so that’s why the assumption of the religion.

    Also, I understood the core idea being that God isn’t what IS the beginning, but that the point where human mind can’t comprehend beyond is God. Which, back then, and even now, I considered to be a lazy copout for a philosopher, as the point of a philosopher is to test the limits of our understanding.

    Then again, for friar to state that the end solution is not god for their thinkings, at that time and place, would’ve probably result in being positioned as a centerpiece of a bonfire.



  • The funny thing is that as far as I know, the majority of the “I wanna be…” -games are made with a software called “Click & Create”, which is basically a “no programming needed” visual game editor.

    Sure, it had it’s quirks, but it’s a super simple editor. Also. Although the current version of the editor is “Multimedia fusion”, as far as I know.




  • I mean that Denuvo WILL cause performance drops, and if said malware needs to be cracked and removed in order to emulate it, it means the emulators don’t have to bother emulating the built-in malware, and can instead use more resources to run the game. Even better than currently.

    And will any of this help with piracy? Well, the average user will no longer be able to backup the official version, and you’d be breaking the law anyways, if you cracked it, so there is “no extra harm” skipping the part where you buy the official version, instead of just downloading the already cracked version. Sure, you risk getting malware, but with the official one you are sure to get malware.

    [EDIT]: Let’s add: I don’t advocate for piracy, but if piracy is more convinient that the official route, it’s what will drive those who don’t mond pirating stuff.
