.world is basically just the losers who got upset that it was too difficult to be a reddit mod since they didn’t have enough power

I extremely rarely pirate games and software. It’s just far too easy an attack vector for malware. The games I want to play are usually worth buying regardless, and free software is good enough for my needs. It isn’t a flat out refusal, I’ve definitely pirated these things, but it’s in niche situations where I need to see something specific, and I always check run it under a vm

Tbf, I think I’ve been transferring the exact same installation machine to machine for almost that long

It’s not incompatible with the like 4 ds games I bother to emulate instead of run on 3ds, and that’s what matters to me

Desmume is better because I already have it installed and know exactly how it works. Ymmv

but maybe citri are too obvious, maybe we should think out of the box… like melons!

Sorry, but I’m an emulated fruit purist, and melonDS is never taking over my crusty desmume installation

I’m sorry but I refuse to switch to an emulator that is not named after a citrus.

My guy, you’re getting mixed results because it really doesn’t matter. If you’re unsure how to do things, you can literally just address the envelope, and go to the post office service counter to figure out how much postage you need.

Don’t pirate my achievements bro

It’s such an unfathomably bad idea to pirate things on company servers

Well, YouTube’s music quality is basically trash but if you are happy with it don’t look for alternatives because you won’t find them.

Yeah, and there’s also no contest in terms of library

I don’t use Spotify because it has an abysmal catalog compared to something like YouTube

similar amount of content

Like, a similarly low amount of content?

and wouldn’t be surprised if it requires even physical media to authenticate

Owner of multiple switches, from my experience, you can crack open the box, not connect it to shit, and pop in a game cartridge. Hell, you can even update the system and games without an internet connection so long as you have a switch that’s gotten those updates already.

I don’t remember the buttons to hold, but when you boot a ds game on 3ds, and hold the right buttons, it boots pixel-perfect on a smaller segment of the 3ds screen such that it’s the same exact resolution as a ds screen

The big issue is that the console companies are generally more active in targeting people on more active consoles, and are incredibly strict if you’re caught cheating. Just being connected to psn on a hacked ps3 runs you a very real risk of getting an account ban. I can only imagine they’re far more active in banning ps4/ps5 users who are running hacked firmware. And Idk if there’s been any major hacks on the Xbox side of things.

As a side note, if you want to see a cluster fuck of every hack and cheat imaginable, hit up the original splatoon servers on Wii u. It’s honestly completely insane how much people have broken it

From my experience, it largely depends on how online multi-player is handled. Things that require game-specific accounts or have drm tied to an account like steam, it won’t work. But a lot of stuff on console works fine since it’s presumed that the anti-piracy has already happened. I play plenty of pirated games online on 3ds, Wii u, and psvita

Something else? Damn, you mean she’s just getting ahead of the game to pre-order a 5090?

Theoretically (assuming it’s an android) you could use an old phone. I know both mullvad and Proton have vpn clients for Android, and libretorrent works well. And you could plug in an external USB drive for more storage. And then use something like a Chromecast to send things to your tv

without having to connect a cable from my computer to my TV

Honestly, just buy a Chromecast or something. Way less effort
