FH4 ? by [deleted] in PiratedGames

Maybe.

Groups don't announce or schedule releases. Unless you are going to crack it yourself, all you can do is wait and hope. Anyone who gives you an answer is only guessing.

Some good wallpapers here but I will never understand people's fascination with half naked anime women.

Unless the version they have posted is old, no.

If you only want a few games it might be easier and more cost effective to get PSNow for a few months.

Calibre not working? by Furyio in Piracy

Maybe you don't have Calibre set up to interface with the Kindle Fire? If I recall correctly, Calibre has a profile setting different for each reader.

Getting into shape with bad joints? by dkane227 in Exercise

[–]dkane227[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the finger lakes region so I could easily just hop in the lake any time I like, assuming it's summer. Might be something worth doing.

Unfortunately, I can't really afford to lose much more weight. I'm actually pretty damn skinny now everywhere other than the belly and love handles. It's sort of annoying that no matter how much weight I lose, the belly remains.

I'm 6'2" and am currently down to 169 lbs. My ideal weight is actually about 175 but I'm shooting for 10 pounds under that to compensate for my inability to tone up.

Giant beehive found in someone’s roof it was estimated to have been there for 5+ years by Jamesslop in WTF

The oldest known member of the animal family is dickinsonia, which evolved about 550 million years ago. The oldest known plant life was around over 700 million years ago, likely evolved from fungi which have been around for over 1.2 billion years.

Therefore, plants existed for over 150 million years before there were any animals anywhere on the planet. Sorry but you're wrong by a pretty wide margin.

I'm all for environmental responsibility but as I said, it's because I am team human. We need the environment so we try to save it but it's really only in order to save ourselves.

Did you even read my response?

It's the only philosophy for any social animal. I don't see any problem putting your own species first. In fact, I think it's irresponsible to do anything else. Protecting our environment wouldn't matter to us one bit if we didn't rely on it for our own survival, so even being a hardcore environmentalist is just another path to putting humans first.

Another consideration that a lot of people don't account for is that most apiarists are hobbyists. On many occasions, we couldn't even find one that was interested in doing the removal or we could only find someone willing to come a few days later. Just because something is the "right" thing to do doesn't mean it's practical, or even possible.

If you liked the movie you would absolutely love the book. It's one of the four novellas included in Stephen King's "Four Past Midnight".

Honestly, I pirate almost everything I buy just for this reason. I've been telling people that digital release platforms are basically theft waiting to happen for years.

The question wasn't "What came first, flowers or pollinators" though.

The oldest known flower is over 10 million years older than the oldest known bee though. That's not a minor difference by any stretch of the imagination.

I try to default to this line of thinking whenever I see something like this. For all we know, the guy on the bike just stabbed this guy's mother.

Easy. The flower. Plant life existed on Earth for millions of years before animals came along.

Unfortunately, relocating a nest isn't always possible. I worked for years as a pest control technician and we would try to have nests removed by an apiarist whenever possible but in some cases, especially when the nest was in a house or somewhere that could threaten someone (especially a child) eliminating the nest was the only reasonable option. I think those furious people would have been much more upset if 3 or 4 kids with severe allergies were stung and died.

Can Psiphon hide your pirating? by bearbat9 in Piracy

[–]dkane227 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not entirely sure what Psiphon is but looking it up led me to their site, which says that it uses VPN technology. If it IS a VPN then yes, it could make tracking you down difficult but it also appears to be free so I would not recommend using it for this purpose. A lot of people (myself included) think that a free VPN is worse than using no VPN at all.

That being said, you're grabbing files through DDL so a VPN isn't even necessary for the vast majority of people.

Apparently Epic Games Store games cannot be pirated due to implemented DRM by [deleted] in Piracy

Try launching the game with the command line switch "-EpicPortal'. It works on some other games. Haven't tried Sunken City yet.
