I doubt that was literally their intent, it’s just a free TLD

Because Microsoft isn’t responsible for every program that runs on their OS.
CrowdStrike is an EDR that enterprises choose to install. The bug was caused by a dodgy content bundle update, which is something that’s meant to be 100% safe but evidently they found and triggered a bug.
I think where valve went wrong was not requiring specific minimum specs. It led to a very inconsistent and hard to support platform.
Steam deck leading to a standard “steam device” hardware platform with consistent OS and hardware is my dream, but I know their goal thus far has been to refine steamos and release it for OEMs to use on their devices.
Massgrave is a tool that can create legit (oem) keys for windows and office out of thin air*
Umami has been pretty good to me. Plausible was a close choice but I ran into technical difficulties getting it going.
I didn’t get around to trying it, but goatcounter looked promising as well.
Classicube is pretty sick
Cinavia! Allegedly it’s still around and mandated in all consumer Blu-ray players.
Unless they are permanently only using specific addresses or blocks and will never change that up, I’d consider it a moving target.
A flatpak of the snap, running in a docker container inside a vm for maximum security.
Checking ip ownership is a moving target more likely to result in outcomes these sites don’t want (accidentally blocking google bots and preventing results from appearing on google).
Checking useragent is cheap, easier, unlikely to break (for this purpose, anyway) and the percentage of folks who know how to bypass this check is relatively slim, with a pretty small financial impact.
Imo launch day nms is more varied (in generated content, at least) with less loading screens (so you get to do the fun action of atmospheric flight -> space flight yourself) - starfield is better in other ways but the end result is I find nms more fun (even on the day 1 version)
Looks like beeper got their stuff working again.
Can’t imagine this working out very well long term though
They’re trying to make steam think they’re actually running osrs so it tracks their playtime. Steam doesn’t track playtime of nonsteam games.
It’s feasible and has been used in various 0day exploits in the last few years. It’s getting significantly rarer nowadays but media player exploits leading to RCE has been a staple of malware distribution for a long while.
It’s just much easier to make a malicious word macro and hope the user isn’t careful than to research/identify an exploitable bug in a media player.
Generally you can’t reverse it into exactly what was written, but most of the time you can disassemble or decompile just about any program as long as the binary format is known. The legibility of the resulting unraveling may vary depending on language and any methods used to obfuscate the end binary.
I’ve seen so many jokes about the naming at this point that I’m pretty sure most folks making those jokes actually think Apple made an iPhone 15 pro plus max.
They’ve been so consistent with naming since the 12 it’s actually been rather nice vs other vendors.
The ps3 provides decent ui but due to stunted interest in the ps3 for homebrew there hasn’t been as much of a focus on getting emulators running well, just to get them running, so while 2d systems will run well at native res you won’t be able to push them very far with shaders, and while n64 allegedly works decently you’ll be stuck with buggy and slow performance. The real upside to the ps3 is decent ps1 and ps2 emulation because of Sonys efforts (even on non-bc consoles) which opens the door to thousands more games.
A raspberry pi or steam deck will offer a generally better emulation experience than a ps3- the homebrew scene for the ps3 leaves a lot to be desired.
I took special care in the technews bot, irradiated, to spread posting articles out over the 5m polling period so as not to make enormous dumps all at once.
My point was that it’s one of a very short list of free top-level domains, and was likely chosen because it was free and didn’t have the same reputation that, say, .tk had.
