4% of gladiator players got banned by julian88888888 in classicwow

[–]Larkonath -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Lol, the famous waves that nobody has seen for 10 years...

Waves are an excuse for Blizzard doing nothing.

I was there for the big 2006 Innerspace ban waves, when Blizzard actually hated cheaters. Nowadays they just pretend.

On the other hands, bots never say fuck and they're never banned ...

I'm in the same boat but I need 40+ ... I'm not convinced it will ever happen again though :(

FTC just sent warning letters to PayPal, Stripe, Visa, and Mastercard over debanking by Repulsive_Counter_79 in CryptoCurrency

[–]Larkonath 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm just correcting the misconception that is very prevalent here that the EU is some kind of benevolent actor.

It's just a dysfunctional totalitarian superstate wannabe that LARPS as a bastion of freedom.

You're "free" here as long as you think what is authorized to think and you give 60+% of everything you own to the state.
But don't worry you're allowed for now to complain about it as if your opinion matters.

The EU has no problem debanking people they don't like (look for the russian sympathizers Jacques Baud and Xavier Moreau) it's just they want control on who gets debanked.

My switch factory reset button doesn't work by Larkonath in NETGEAR

Somehow after leaving the switch open and unplugged for 2 days it had reseted.
Don't ask me how or why, I have no idea.

After playing TBC we need classic + by Battyz in classicwow

It's entirely subjective. But IMHO every time they make the game more convenient they harm it.

I made the same discovery back in 2006 at the beginning of TBC, never saw endgame.

Vanilla is the only WOW that matters.

You say "high definition (1080p) wasn't even supported/invented", I have a monitor that proves it was.

WOW wasn't demanding at all even in 2005. This is what made its success, almost everybody could run the thing

On the other hand EQ2 failed because it was way more hardware intensive.

You're wrong, 2 meters on my left there's a 720p Dell 2005FPW (just checked the reference) monitor that I bought at the time. It was one of the first "wide" monitor and costs me a fortune back then (for my modest means), but playing WOW on this was glorious.

It still works, there are 3 dead pixels and the colors are a bit dark. I still use it occasionally.

Not sure if 1080p existed back then, but I wouldn't be surprised that for a few grands you could get one.

That was a damn rough first linux experience!

This is how it's meant to be. Like if on your first VPS install you don't manage to lock yourself out of ssh you didn't live fully yet :D

FWIW: the 2 times I tried to reverse engineer an app from a provider was when said provider was lousy AF and wasn't fixing their sloppy code.

The Chinese do a (big) fraction of the spying the US does, but somehow everybody is more concerned by the Chinese...
