I don’t know which one of the ctr games you are referring too, but you might be interested about this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCwSkmAp7f8, there is an effort from ctr community to port the ps1 game on pc






Nope the article state

However, this new driver has also rolled out to Windows 10 and Windows 11 devices in the USA that do not have to comply with the DMA act, shedding doubt on this theory.


The vendor itself acknowledged the situation by saying that the virus problem was solved!
















There is no mention about achivements inthse site, but probably yes.







Saint Row developer, Volition, is shutting down

Illegal or not, most of the people out there never installed their os, because they buy a device with an os preinstalled and indirectly they buy the license for windows.




If they make it easy for you doesn’t mean it’s legal.

It’s illegal to use windows without a license. As even stated in the license you agree before installing the os, this one, on section 5 Authorized Software and Activation.

You are authorized to use this software only if you are properly licensed and the software has been properly activated with a genuine product key or by other authorized method



It’s illegal to do soo, not that much debatable.

Yes a formality that you pay every time you buy a pc with windows pleinstalled and it’s an asshole to refund.


Commenting on c/Piracy doesn’t exclude I pay for software, indeed I payed for 3 windows licenses two with the costs of my 2 laptop and one I payed my self in my custom built pc. (And I’m only counting windows 10 licenses because the count would be much higher if I counted windows xp,vista,7 and 8) and that was my only and one comment on every piracy related community.

Edit: the same people force you to have a windows license and a driving license, but one get checked more than the other that’s it.


Using windows without a license is illegal.

This is like saying you don’t need to have a driving license to drive a car because the car doesn’t complain about it.


You know that’s a fuck up situation when you need to hope that a government union will give a fuck about a tech giant throwing shit at their paying customers


But at least you don’t pay chrome, with windows instead you need to pay a license to use it.


That’s the problem

  • they are making harder to change the default browser on windows, and broke workaround by chrome and firefox too.
  • they don’t let you uninstall edge in easy way or without a third party software.
  • if you download another browser from edge they try to persuade you in to giving edge a try.
  • they are planning to set edge as the default browser on teams.
  • they don’t give you an easy way to open with another browser the internet result from the windows search bar, they broke EdgeDeflector many times indeed.

And nobody is doing something about it!


Never metioned in the article, and it’s a “feature” only spread to a close number of people.



It’s important because now you can take full control of stats that you weren’t able to because of the lock.

And it migh be good for linux because since the 900 series gpu, or since the lock were first implemented, the open source nvidia driver it’s not able to re-clock the gpu with an higher clock than the boot one (and trust me it’s a really low clock) and you are not able to use a quarter of the power the gpu has.

Even if the open source driver code is 100% equals the nvidia one, literally copy pasted, it would not work because it need to be signed by nvidia to do so.



That’s not true for crdroid https://crdroid.net/

What base is crDroid using?

crDroid uses LineageOS as base. We try to keep in sync with LineageOS source while also adding lots of customizations for you to choose from.



It will come back when you factory reset the device but at least if the update doesn’t contain the installer for some app they will not come back!


Even if of questionable quality it can be used by mappers to speed up their work, that’s the same principle as rapid or mapillary, they help us speed up the work, or at least I used them this way (but I don’t think everyone else would like to map every building in a city by hand), and if it’s not the best quality we can modify the data and tweak the quality by hand, I don’t import dataset on rapid as they are if they don’t conform.


That API doesn’t let you do everything tho, only a number of operations like embed Google Maps on their websites or apps, perform geocoding operations, get directions, and more.

It doesn’t give you direct access to the database!


Yes but other services provides you only the maps that’s not the case on osm.


There is not one yet, the dataset got released yesterday. But you can use an OpenStreetMap based map Organic Maps f-droid PlayStore

And if data is not available on that then maybe it’s time to contribute on osm as well, thanks to StreetComplete!


If the license is compatible with the one used by OSM contributors can use the data to make their life easier, contributors of the dataset are encouraged to contribute directly to osm if possible.


But OSM is not a simple map but a database of data, what you see on their site is only an implementation of what you can do with the data.






Yes but most of the people don’t care, out there are still people running windows xp and 7 without thinking twice about it
