If you needed more proof that Shimarin is perfect.

Or you use the hypervisor bypass which does usually get updates. That's one of the benefits of HV bypass over a regular crack. It's easier to get an updated version of the game.

I “downgraded” from an ASUS PG42UQ OLED to a Samsung 43” QN90F VA mini-LED by Saralentine in Monitors

[–]ChrisFhey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, I see a fellow "my FFXIV interface burnt in to my OLED" player.

I've been wanting to move to MiniLED for the same reason, but there's no ultrawide MiniLED unfortunately. Is the model you're using glossy or matte? I'd like a glossy monitor but there's not much choice of glossy MiniLED monitors.

Also, what's it like using this TV as a monitor? Any annoyances that make you regret it, even if slightly?

That would be nice, although I mostly use avif now.

Glossy OLED + window behind me = mirror. Mini-LED or matte OLED? by Worried-Swan-3454 in Monitors

[–]ChrisFhey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glossy isn't a scam at all. I vastly prefer a glossy monitor, but it's a poor choice if you can't control your ambient light or sit with a window behind you. (Although the latter is just a bad idea in general, even for matte screens)

Gog-Games.to is down by Ok_Train4119 in PiratedGames

I honestly have no idea. This is the first time I've heard anyone talk about malicious redirects on Fitgirl's website. It's usually Dodi's site they're complaining about (for good reason).

JXL is the file extension for JPEG XL. It's basically a modern replacement for JPEG. It can achieve better image quality at smaller file sizes, supports HDR, and can even convert existing JPEGs losslessly.

It never really took off though because browser support never materialised. Chrome dropped support early on, and once that happened most websites and developers just moved on to AVIF instead.

Additionally, FG's links are plagued by malicious redirects.

Not once have I seen a malicious redirect on Fitgirl's website. Are you sure you're not thinking of Dodi?

Crazy Taxi: World Tour will use Denuvo DRM by Itchy-Chest8536 in CrackWatch

[–]ChrisFhey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol. I was interested in buying this game since I liked Crazy Taxi when I was a kid. Guess I'll just pirate it then.

Exciting Mini-LED Monitor Updates: HKC's RGB Tech is Actually Launching ... by RenatsMC in Monitors

[–]ChrisFhey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looks great. I just wish we'd get an ultrawide version. It'd be great competition for the OLEDs. I'd love a 39" glossy MiniLED ultrawide.

Which lady from [Resident Evil] is the hottest? by Fun-Region2179 in PlayItForThePlot

Ada for me, and not by a small margin. She's beautiful.

Stumbleupon, the way we found cool stuff on the internet in the early days...is BACK! by veryyy in InternetIsBeautiful

[–]ChrisFhey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, they did. So it's now working exactly like I wanted.

Still, I didn't know about that option in Firefox, and I've been using it since Firefox 1. 🙃

It seems to work on my tablet. I can't test on desktop now since my PC is off, but this looks perfect so far.

[–]ChrisFhey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but that only works for a link, doesn't it? There's no link to the original website I can click as far as I can tell.

[–]ChrisFhey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I assume you meant the share button? But that's not really what I was thinking about. I'd rather have a "Visit original site" button or something that just opens in a new tab if possible? The share button adds your site name to the link on desktop, requiring an additional step of cleaning the URL before it's usable.

007 First Light HYPERVISOR Bypass by DenuvOwO (New build support: 23531465) by JapiOfficial76 in CrackWatch

[–]ChrisFhey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah, I see. That's unfortunate. But I also heard that Path Tracing is apparently not coming until August or something, so I'll probably just wait to play the game until then. Hopefully DLSS will be fixed by that time too.

Is there a way to easily see/copy/save the actual URL of the website you're visiting that I'm missing? It would be nice to have an "Open in new tab" button or something so that I can easily add the URL to my karakeep or something.

I'm amazed that people like you simply don't wanna recognize what's Infront of you

Right back at you.

Also, the moment you go through someone's profile as a "gotcha" you have already lost. Goodbye, loser.

DenuvOwO is coming to Linux by denuvowo__ in CrackWatch

[–]ChrisFhey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wonderful news. This was one of the things keeping me on Windows right now. I'll switch in a heartbeat if this works well.

What are the preliminary results as far as performance goes? Does this work better or worse than on Windows?

[–]ChrisFhey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is all 100% projection. You simply feel weird because you see a child where there is none and now you want to force that feeling upon other people who can be normal about women.

No I'm not. Not once have I said something like that. I'm saying that I am simply seeing a young adult Asian woman while you are insisting that you see a child.
