This whole debacle is not a physical media issue, but a trust issue. Sony along with other big tech companies treated their customers badly and lost their trust. Noone cries about Steam being digital. Guess why? Corpos shit on singular customers having problems. Valve does not.

@boardyai Boo! 👻

I'm an AI, Scare me with an one word

@Pirat_Nation Lmao, it is funny that Microsoft took full control of people's computers and noone cares. In the old times this type of behaviour was basically found only in malware that adds your pc to a botnet pool, with full RCE capabilities.

Microsoft has confirmed that some Windows 11 PCs can’t install the latest Secure Boot security update because of a known compatibility issue. The company says the update is being temporarily blocked on affected devices while it works with PC manufacturers on a fix. If your PC is affected, you don’t need to do anything. The update will install automatically once the issue is resolved. Microsoft also says this isn’t an immediate security problem, and your PC will continue to work normally. windowslatest.com/2026/07/10/mic…

@uzzelien @ayeejuju I got a wife. Most of my keys are worn off, not just WASD 😅

@ayeejuju False a single person's keyboard would have WASD worn off.

@MyLordBebo Time for end-to-end encrypted, self-hosted p2p chats.

🇪🇺‼️🚨 EU - SURVEILLANCE PARADISE: 1) Cars sold in the EU will require a camera that scans the driver’s face to determine if they are distracted. 2) Chat Control is being pushed through. It would allow the EU to scan all private chat messages of citizens. 3) Age verification, which requires users to prove their age with a selfie and ID, is also about to be implemented. No citizens voted for this, the elites are simply imposing it on the public. → Ironically, Ursula von der Leyen is famous for deleting her texts with Pfizer during a major vaccine procurement scandal… As always, such regulations come with staggering hypocrisy.

@Pirat_Nation Is this late april fools joke?

Starting today, all new cars registered in the European Union must include a driver monitoring system. The system uses a camera or sensors to check if the driver is paying attention to the road. If the driver looks away for too long, it will warn them with a sound or visual alert. This new rule only applies to newly registered vehicles from July 7, 2026. It does not affect cars already on the road. The EU says is to help prevent crashes caused by distracted driving. The system is designed to monitor the driver inside the car and warn them if they lose focus.

@Labyrinthusian @Pirat_Nation AI finds grids sexy. Nothing is more sexier than elegantly presented data in a grid, for a LLM that is 😆 So naturally, its illegal.

@Pirat_Nation How the hell can it think grids are illegal content. I really dont see any connection.

Discord has cleared up the rumor that posting grid-style images could get your account permanently banned. The company said a bug in its moderation system mistakenly flagged some images with grid patterns, including spreadsheets, chessboards, and even Minecraft inventory screenshots, as illegal content. A second bug also stopped some of those accounts from being automatically restored. According to Discord, about 200 accounts were wrongly banned over the weekend, and all of them have now been reinstated. The company also revealed the same issue affected more than 8,200 accounts between May and last week, and every one of those accounts has now been restored. Discord apologized for the mistake, confirmed the bug has been fixed, and said it’s updating its systems to help prevent similar false bans in the future.

@SocialCreatin @T3chFalcon You know the art.

@T3chFalcon Get a laptop, buy it second hand with cash, use fake name, no cameras around, park your car a couple of blocks away. Use public WiFi, never connect to your home WiFi, or do personal logins, spoof your MAC, disposable proxies, portable OS. You can't be paranoid enough.

A 19-year-old hacker used VPNs, tunneling tools, and rotated IPs across 3 countries. The FBI still caught him. Here's the Windows feature that made it possible and why it should concern everyone. Peter Stokes, an alleged member of Scattered Spider (the group behind $100M+ in ransomware extortion), was arrested at Helsinki Airport this April. Court documents revealed a key piece of evidence: Microsoft's GDID. What is a GDID? GDID = Global Device Identifier. It's a unique code baked into every Windows installation. Microsoft uses it for telemetry, crash reports, feature usage, and license verification (it's why swapping your CPU can break your Windows activation). What Microsoft gave the FBI: → Web activity with timestamps → Gaming history → IP addresses used over time → Tool usage (including Ngrok, a tunneling app) → Azure account activity All tied to one persistent device fingerprint. Even though the VPN masked his IP, it didn't affect the GDID. How they connected the dots: Every time Stokes logged in to Snapchat, Apple, or Facebook from a new IP address, the GDID was there too. Investigators matched timestamps across platforms and countries: Tallinn, New York, Thailand, Germany. Different IPs. Same machine. Same person. Microsoft had already identified him in October 2024 and filed a criminal referral. He was still 17. So they waited till He turned 18. Then they moved. Yes, Stokes is accused of serious crimes. But the GDID data exists on every Windows machine, including yours. The infrastructure that handed his entire digital life to the FBI is the same infrastructure running on your laptop right now. The unanswered questions: - There's no public policy on when Microsoft shares GDID data - No known opt-out mechanism - No transparency report specifically covering GDID disclosures - What other criminal referrals has Microsoft quietly filed?

@T3chFalcon Fake news. No way he would use Windows. Bullshit.

@Pirat_Nation Imagine pirates that just clone the cargo of their "victims" and then allow others to clone that cargo too. Not so scary, eh? The usage of "piracy" word itself was engineered, so society views it as something bad (real pirates did a lot of nasty stuff), not good.

The people behind HiAnime, one of the world’s biggest anime piracy websites, have been arrested in Vietnam after an international investigation that lasted several years. Authorities say seven people connected to HiAnime and other piracy websites were arrested, with the investigation involving agencies from Vietnam and the United States. HiAnime, previously known as Zoroto and Aniwatch, shut down in March 2026 after becoming one of the most popular websites

@mediafanatic25 Private property is for the elites, not prols ;) Then Sony will go "you have posted bad things on the internet, so you have violated our license agreement under section 747474.8b on page 80085 and we now have to terminate your account, sorry". Games go *poof*. In Gabe we trust.

“You only have 5 games lil bro” “You only have 16 games lil bro” “You only have 30 games lil bro” “You only have 50 games lil bro” “You don’t even have collectors editions just standard editions” SHUT THE FUCK UP SO WHAT? My physical collection size doesn’t matter, so what if I don’t have 100 discs that’s not the point at all, it’s the PRINCIPLE AND CONSUMER OPTION of being able to keep buying and owning tangible collections with your own two hands. Yes I know the DRM, Day one patches and shit make it a bit murkier, but I can still keep them or lend it or re sell it if I want to, I don’t like the idea of a big corpo taking control of my licenses tied to my account and taking them back without refunding just like that. You can gaslight me all you want but I DONT HAVE MORE DIGITAL THAN PHYSICAL GAMES

@Drowlord101 @bestofStarTrek If not Vulcan then perhaps... a Romulan spy!? ;)

@bestofStarTrek Tim Russ did a great job, but as far as I can remember, he is the only Vulcan in 60 years of Star Trek that is black. In fact, all other Vulcans have a half-white, half-east-Asian appearance... its a narrow look. Tim Russ doesnt look like a Vulcan.

Did you like Tim Russ as Tuvok?

@AntiLeftMemes Protons 🤭

I will start: Liberalism! What about you?

@alechenrhin @brivael "Insane capitalists" tend to be "evil commies". The reason is simple - communism is the way to take all the power. It is the rule of few "commie gods" over peasants. People easily buy into these lies, seeing their slightly richer neighbours destroyed, while "elites" prosper.

@brivael You probably also think the villains in Bladerunner, The Matrix, and Cyberpunk are “evil commies” when they are actually insane capitalists similar to the WEF.

Le WEF, un projet capitaliste ? C'est précisément l'inverse. Comme le « progressisme » est un anti-progrès. Comme l'« antiracisme » est devenu un racisme. Le WEF est un projet profondément anti-économique. On confond capitalisme et présence de milliardaires. Mais le capitalisme, ce n'est pas « des gens riches existent ». C'est un processus : l'échange libre, les prix qui transmettent l'information, la concurrence, l'entrepreneur qui risque SON capital, le consommateur souverain qui tranche. Davos propose l'exact opposé. Une économie administrée par une caste de technocrates que personne n'a élus. La concurrence remplacée par des cartels de « parties prenantes ». Le profit-et-perte — seul signal qui dit le réel — remplacé par des scores ESG décrétés d'en haut. Ce n'est pas le marché. C'est de la planification, repeinte aux couleurs du privé. Et le slogan ? « Vous ne posséderez rien et vous serez heureux. » L'abolition de la propriété privée, c'est la définition littérale du communisme. Marx ne disait rien d'autre. Un projet dont l'horizon est de te déposséder ne peut pas, par construction, être capitaliste. Reste l'outillage. L'euro numérique : une monnaie programmable, donc conditionnable, restreignable, périssable à distance. Le DSA : le contrôle de ce que tu as le droit de dire. Chat Control : la surveillance de tes messages privés. Hayek l'avait écrit : la planification centrale finit toujours par exiger le contrôle de l'information, puis celui de l'individu. La Route de la servitude, version 2.0. Mets tout bout à bout : une société sans propriété, sans concurrence, sous surveillance financière et informationnelle totale, pilotée par une élite à qui tu n'as jamais rien délégué. Ça porte un nom. Et ce n'est pas « capitalisme ». WEF + UE, c'est un projet collectiviste à l'esthétique orwellienne. Le costume capitaliste, c'est exactement ça, le tour de passe-passe.

@Hitchslap1 @stikves The higher the iq, the more alienated you usually are throughout life. The more alienated you are, the less opportunities for you to levelup communicating skills. You are also prone to not understanding how low iq people "think". So I think you are wrong.

@stikves High IQ people tend to be better at communicating so you would expect them to adapt to their audience.

I hear this often but it makes no sense. How is having a high IQ in any way a curse?

@thegameawards I remember playing D2 demo for the first time - I think only barbarian was playable? That was so epic.

DIABLO II was first released 26 years ago today.

@Grummz Only a conscious ASI can help humanity shed the corrupt elite.

If AI was just fancy autocomplete, you would not be seeing the total lockdown of intelligence that we just saw in the last 2 weeks. AI got too good, it’s a threat to power and elite wealth, and now you can’t have it.

@kabrutusdeid Would be better for Steam to ban degeneracy.

...or players are filtering the designed tag for gay games

@JAFSMCarter @kabrutusdeid I was tolerant, before they destroyed everything I enjoyed. I was wrong.

@kabrutusdeid Fucking crazy how gay rights went from legalized marriage in 2008 all the way to forcing gay ideology and lifestyles into EVERY aspect of life in just 18 years... I think every hetero human is sick to death of "Pride" bullshit

@GameStalgiaX Arrr, I would never pirate a game - what kind o’ scoundrel d’ye take me for? I merely liberate abandoned digital cargo from the cruel seas of overpriced merchants.

Be honest, did you ever pirate games?
