Your prudery and moralism bores the hell out of me https://randomrantdispenser.neocities.org/rant04-2024-07-18
Oh, I got the Alone in the Dark trilogy the other day yeah and I don’t think I ever got a free game on GOG before. But I’m pretty sure I unsubscribed from their newsletter when they sent the email this Thursday. I did it again, I hope it works this time, else gonna have to contact support.
To people downvoting: are you also mad that Valve/Epic/PSN/etc have to follow GDPR data regulations for EU citizens and keep representatives there, or is sovereignty only bad when a non–first-world country dares to claim it?
That’s a very common and very reasonable request, and given the size of Turkey, I don’t think they’d prefer to lose the whole market there instead of having a lawyer in the country to deal with local legal requests.
Only when it’s companies run by manchildren, like X and Rumble, they go on the internet to cry about censorship and shit when they pikachu-face-discover they have to follow a country’s laws to operate in that country.
ps: You are already not buying games when you pay for them on Steam.

Well, this acc here, and several others I use, were created on free Proton email without giving them any contact information.
What?
I’m kinda surprised that any email would ask you to have a previous email to be able to create account… Proton surely didn’t for me. The only way they could require identifying verification would be by demanding a cellphone number, because you can lie about everything else, hell, if you have an online service for that you can lie about that being your phone number as well.
I have no idea how it works, we have two main brands, Duosat and Azamerica, I found a fake Azamerica shop here https://azamerica-brasil.com/ you can see they have several models (the models are real, just the shop is a scam [the prices are way way off :P], as it’s illegal you need to find the right person to buy from on Whatsapp or Telegram). I used to be on the Duosat forum and they have a team working on hardware, software and the streaming, but they moved to a Telegram group some years ago and I never joined.
I found a video of a guy showing a model similar to mine, he shows the streaming (the UI is crap, but hey, it’s free lol)… watching the video I just remembered, you can also access a lot of random public cameras around the world, they should add the hacked Flocks to the list https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDfQoAtc9GM
It doesn’t show him exploring satellites though (he is just on the StarOne C2/C4 menu), although kinda useless to try satellites from other countries since the channels are going to be on a foreign language and there won’t be subtitles.
I don’t use IPTV though, you have to pay a monthly fee to use, I just bought a satellite decoder and I can get any channel from any satellite my dish can reach, and the groups that sell those give you free access to their private streaming they update constantly with new releases… I got mine in 2018 or 2019 I think, at the time IPTV was like BRL$20 a month and the decoder BRL$800
lol, that’s about the number of IPTV subscribers you’d find in a Brazilian city with 5k people :P
About games hard to run, back on Win7 I couldn’t get Dark Colony installer to run with any compatibility mode (luckily, you can run the game just by copying the files from the CD). StarCraft had some graphics issue but just on menus (I think on Win10 as well), and I couldn’t play Outwars at all (although GOG version has some fix for modern Windows). A GOG game I bought that I couldn’t run on modern windows was Slave Zero.
Jagged Alliance, Commandos, Fallout :)
ps: no idea how original versions are hard to run nowadays, even though I have JA and FO CDs, it’s been like 10 years since I last had a CD drive, I just bought them again on GOG :P
I mean, it’s right in the name, took them long enough to demand your face for their book.
That’s awesome!
MobyGames is a collective database active since 1999. Years ago I was looking for a “letterboxd for games” and others like backloggd and rawg were missing a lot of stuff and had poor info about releases and so (I never checked again, so they might be better now). At the time MobyGames seemed like the best one, there is a lot of very obscure releases there, but I don’t know if other databases are more complete.
There were also a lot of collection packs in the middle but I was too lazy to count and exclude them :P
But even if they released just roms instead of physical media, wouldn’t you still be able to play on the actual hardware using Everdrive or something?
So I did a quick search on MobyGames looking for new release since 2020, and:
I believe those are the most active
Flock Safety operates in only one country.
For torrented games, just don’t delete the installation files?
For GOG, burning your games on DVD is not even piracy. According to the EULA, you are legally allowed to keep one backup copy.
It’s crazy, but people nowadays install games through online stores, and they pay to not own games :S
They can’t read your emails though, Tuta uses zero-knowledge encryption, it was something else that got you flagged. Did you send a lot of consecutive emails?
Yep, hate when I want to follow some project and they link you to X, Reddit and Discord lol
