That was such a good movie.

Yes, next question.

If any of those CDs require internet to install, they must have been later releases during the dying era of CD game installs. I have original CD copies of all AOE games and they dont need any internet at all.

For games that require the CD inserted, I have had mixed luck with dumping the CD contents to an ISO using dd, then mounting that for installing and running the game.

Using dd is important as you can flat dump every single bit out of the CD, including the hidden license information.

Also virtually every old game that requires a CD probably has a NoCD crack out there in the world. That was some of the easiest and most commonly bypassed DRM back in the day.

I don’t like it. But it’s probably #2. Centaurs replace the neck of the base animal with a human torso.

There’s an ungodly insane number of old industrial control systems still banging around out there on 486 processors and custom ISA cards. It might never actually go away.

They focus on the economy just like they focus on underaged girls

They’re only looking for something they can fuck

Ahh that tracks. Glad you got it figured out.

If IONOS is involved in anything I automatically assume they’re in the wrong. What a fucking scumbag of a predatory company. I made the mistake of using them for some web hosting and ended up being charged for extra contracts that you CANNOT CANCEL AND TRIPLE IN PRICE HALFWAY THROUGH THE CONTRACT.

Fuck them I cancelled my debit card.

Do you have another playback device you can test with?

FireTV sticks and honestly a lot of consumer televisions are always suspicious when there’s random stutter issues.

It really needs USB-PD support with an onboard regulator, but of course that would be way too crazy to implement.

Pi’s were cool up until the 3b and everything after has just not been good for the form factor. Conveniently, the 3B was about the time they started prioritizing selling volume to commercial customers.

You know it’s not :(

Basically the only benefit the Pi has is GPIO pins for embedded projects.

lol

lmao, even

Nah. Instead of inflation being corporations stealing my purchasing power, it’s now the value of my labor being inflated so the same wage buys less work.

No it’s a locally owned pizzeria that has a secret recipe. I’ve been told it’s primarily a lard base.

I’ve found that basically all commercial ranch (hidden valley) is mostly just soybean oil and doesn’t taste like shit.

A local pizza joint to me has custom made ranch that is unironically amazing. YMMV.

Reverse inflation
