I’m sorry that my asshole government and Trump’s nonsense trade war deprioritized you receiving your replacement screen. I don’t want him or his administration anywhere but in prison.

I’ll let my wife know that someone finally does!

Have you tried playing on a lower difficulty level?

Consoles live and die by their exclusives. Xbox hasn’t had the draw that Sony and Nintendo have.

Gamepass is still a good deal, but I wouldn’t buy a console for it.

This is the only way I’ve been successful with a microwave dry. For a standard 1000-1100 watt microwave, drop the power down to 20%.

I normally toss them into my food dehydrator while I’m drying filament rolls though so I don’t need another step.

Your think I’m fucking around here!? Mark it zero!

I think I like what I see out of the Qidi brand, but I don’t have any experience with them.

I would be interested in a review post from you should you decide to go that way.

If you haven’t made a decision yet, Formbot has 350mm Voron 2.4 kits back in stock. They ship from Czech Republic or China.

The Sovol SV08 is a good option too if you don’t feel like building from scratch.

You’re okay by me!

The Bleem case is a separate issue from creating a backup copy protected by DRM

You should check out Beehaw. It’s built on the Lemmy platform but the owners and mods are very much trying to build what you describe.

The law is all about those technicalities.

I don’t agree with any of that noise around the DMCA for the record. I feel like we effectively lost our right to archival copies.

On a PC, what you said about copying the DRM along with the data is largely true. It is possible sometimes to copy the DRM and reproduce the image with the DRM intact. It also might not be depending upon the copy protection mechanism. Commercial video DVDs used to employ tricks with the storage sector that made it almost impossible to properly copy by a standard computer disc drive. You could get around this with additional program like AnyDVD, but that was only available for sale outside the USA because of the fact that it allowed you to bypass DRM.

And like you said, the content can be encrypted. Decrypting it is, IIRC, considered bypassing DRM - at least in the USA.

Again, I don’t agree that this is how things should be, but the legality of emulation is complicated depending upon what we’re talking about emulating.

I would be interested in that case if you find it. I spend a lot of time thinking about emulation and the surrounding stuff.

The emulation itself is legal, assuming you’re not using any copyrighted code, BIOS, etc. to make work.

The backup copy of your game that you need can be made legally as well, but in the USA, if the source contains a form of DRM, then you cannot legally make a copy.

In the USA, it is illegal to make a backup copy of any of your media when the original contains any form of DRM.

On any media where DRM wasn’t used, you’re okay to create a backup copy.

The law is different everywhere though.

I don’t dislike the Adam’s Family nor the Munsters, but I have blocked both communities because they each had a ton of submissions on the same day, and they were dominating my feed.

There’s nothing wrong with slowly submitting content. Submitting too much, too quickly makes it hard to distinguish from spam.

Just my opinion. I understand that you are looking to build something, and therefore you disagree on submission frequency.

I won’t use Brave for the same reasons, but not having uBO was the worst part of switching to iOS until Orion released.

To add on to this, Tidal and Deezer are excellent alternatives to Spotify.

Orion on iOS supports uBO too. It’s from the Kagi search engine people. I’ve been using it for a while now, and I like it a lot.
