No, I understand the bypass does not work on Linux.

I would say “nice try FBI!”, but I think they have their hands full at the moment.

Voices38 has been busily cracking games which are infected with Denuvo.

voices38 is the best. DODI is a repacker.

I still use a set of Shure DJ headphones which have been glued back together a few times. They are very comfortable and have excellent sound reproduction.

A couple of github sites are still up, but the software has been ‘archived’.

As a fan of this show, I’d also like to find sources of these episodes. I am aware that some episodes have been lost over the years, though.

OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. Meets all my requirements 😀

I found about Usenet and the sort of “hype” relative to it and I wonder some stuff.

Usenet’s been around in its current form since 1987! The problem for pirates is finding decent providers who serve binaries. I used to use Easynews as they had great retention and they seem to still be around.

Usenet is decentralised, but - as mentioned elsewhere - relies on a handful of providers to service the binary groups.

Your comment about speaking Austrian reminded me of one of my many visits to Germany. I was at the Oktoberfest in München and my group got chatting to a local, whereupon he proudly proclaimed: “Here… you are not in Germany; you are in Bavaria!” Made us chuckle :-)

Some Linux apps get cracked. The most recent that I’ve found which are mentioned in your post are the following: Autodesk.Arnold.MtoA.v5.4.5.0.for.Maya.2023-2025.Linux.x64-BONDYE Autodesk.Arnold.KtoA.v4.3.4.1.for.Katana.4.5-7.0.Linux.x64-BONDYE Autodesk.Arnold.HtoA.v6.3.4.1.for.Houdni.19.5-20.5.Linux.x64-BONDYE Autodesk.Arnold.C4DtoA.v4.7.7.1.for.Cinema.4D.2023-2025.Linux.x64-BONDYE Autodesk.Arnold.v7.3.4.1.Incl.SDK.Linux.x64-BONDYE Autodesk.Maya.v2025.Linux.x64-BTCRiSO

Obviously I won’t give links but I imagine you can find them on IRC etc. Couldn’t find Boris FX or Maxon releases.

qBittorrent here.

After Steam Deck 2, there will be Steam Deck 2 Episode 1.

Wow, how ableist

How so? There has to be a default, and with many applications it’s white rather than black. Personally, I like the dark themes that some applications now offer as it doesn’t offend my ageing eyes so much.

“You wouldn’t download a train”…

The site operator is non-responsive to ESA take-down notices and runs a backup version of the site at dodi-repacks.download.

Well, depending on where the website host is located, they may not need to comply. I wasn’t aware of the backup site mentioned above, though; maybe Dodi and FitGirl are one and the same? ;-)

EDIT: Grammar.

There is a torrent floating around but availability is 20.9% at the moment.

According to the Steam store page, there’s a Linux build planned. It will be interesting to see if that has any DRM.

CODEX is defunct these days. I can’t seem to find a valid source of X-Plane at all at the moment.

And wants money to fund another crazy project…
