Denuvo drm: allow me to introduce myself
Just find a build with it ripped out / worked around it and play offline?
Well you aren’t exactly running all of the app then, are you?
Indeed, you’d only be running the good part!
DRM eats up system resources + is a privacy concern.
Honestly DRM is bad and should be rejected. That means no Spotify, Netflix or Denuvo.
It should be circumvented, not rejected.
That’s illegal
Ummm… not exactly, they sell shit and then take that shit away from you when they see fit. If that’s not illegal, then me circumventing their DRM for my own personal use most definitely isn’t.
Plus, it really is legal to do RCE for your own personal use. It’s illegal to share that info.
I think you are mixing up illegal with unethical. I strongly disagree that any level of DRM warrants piracy. If you don’t like a company having power over you its time to seek alternatives.
And piracy is so bad because… It’s illegal?
Yes, and it is unethical as you are totally disregarding the copyright owner. You should buy DVDs and bluerays as that’s the sweet spot for cost vs control.
This is not wine… Powerade at best 🤔
Mad Dog 20/20.
Badlands chugs, legend
Even with good old wine, the friend is still not wrong
Unfortunately, yes…
Your average Wine enjoyer:
Wine works great, blurp…
Lmao… it hurts because it’s true!! Debug these windows stack traces in Linux, here you go!! Exception happened at 0xEBFCEBFCBEBXBDBBWBXBENEKWWLLWLFFMLW
How I learnt there are normal dot net runtime and Desktop runtime.
Guava juice in a wine glass?
I don’t know but it definitely doesn’t look like wine.
I hate comments that are like “oh if only Linux could run Whatever” etc. You can have more than one computer (or partition), and you can have more than one OS. Windows isn’t going to divorce you if you spend time with Linux.
No, but it sure is annoying having to switch in the middle of doing something especially when you’re working. (Also, there’s that pesky thing that happened to me as well where windows doesn’t play nice with the Linux boot partition and fucks it up) So there’s always going to be a main os. If you’re fortunate enough you can use an old laptop for windows. Or, if your computer is powerful enough run an windows VM. For me, Gnome Boxes offered a really easy to use experience of running windows. It worked out of the box, no special tweaks.
I installed Garuda on my wife’s gaming machine last autumn, dual boot with Windows. I haven’t seen her using Windows since then, and she said she hasn’t. She loves it btw, says, even better graphics in some games. And KDE is an eye candy anyways.
If you don’t turn on windows of course you won’t have problems.
That is most likely juice. Bout 5 kg of sugar in that glass by my rough estimation.
There are actually only two kinds of windows apps that don’t run on Linux: Those made not to run on Linux on purpose, and those that were made by so bad programmers that you’ll be amazed how fast the “fixme” messages scroll in the terminal window from which you started wine. I’m working with one of the latter, and I’m happy that I just finished the last project with it. This piece of software is plain shit. And it looks like they don’t intend to fix their shit.
It’s not exactly on purpose, but Wine is still missing a lot of hardware level translation, like native SATA for example, so… 🤷.
I’m not talking about limits in low-level hardware support. I’m talking e.g. about games with anti-cheating software or productivity software with invasive license managers that are made not to run under anything but Windows.
Ah, yes, do agree about that.
Windows can’t run Linux apps (wsl is Linux running Linux apps)
Both Linux and Windows can’t run macOS apps.
Just for awareness
