It’s flipping you off with its feet. Twice. I guess it didn’t want to be picked up. Don’t know. Maybe. Or it is just generally impolite.

And you should be. That’s a very nice boat.

If he really had missed work, he would have been there.

The only day he is recorded as skipping his routine morning breakfas

Recorded.

Reselling isn’t a thing with any PC game store I know. Which is the only drawback for me. Is it possible to sell my old PS game discs or are they attached to my PS account?

I would use a performant server which is recommended in the FAQ of your VPN provider. Optionally outside of your countries jurisdiction, but not really required, if it’s just copyright infringement.

Regarding copyright infringement :

Law firms specialized in mass cease and decist letter dispatching do the low effort approach. Like Waldorf and Frommer in Germany - now Frommer only. What happened to you Mr. Waldorf? Their approach is: Get an IP. Look up the user address. Send the threatening form letter. Collect the money and cease and decist declaration. Rarely they will go to court.

And I doubt they spend much effort to find out who you are if the IP/ traffic is slightly obfuscated by a VPN provider - regardless of the exit node. It doesn’t hurt to use a server that is outside of your countries executive sphere of influence but I doubt it makes a difference for the above mentioned law firms.

There would be means to detect what you do with the VPN tunnel - secret services and police do that by analyzing bandwidth usage and active connections on the exit node. But those authorities don’t care about copyright infringement on the most recent how I met your mother flick. It’s the media companies and they don’t care about justice but to deter as many people from infringement as possible with not too much cost and effort. They would like to get rid of VPN providers and they are working on it, which shows that VPNs are effective.

To be fair. My knowledge is dated and might be incorrect. AI and all…

Why alcohol injections when killing oneself with an ethanol enema/ tampon would also do?

So… Sony could, from a technical POV, block games which come on disc, too? It’s just a tiny firmware update. And good luck playing GTA online or Diablo 4 with an offline PS to prevent updates. Or any game which needs a newer PS firmware.

The root issue seems to be that you are not root on your PS. And you don’t trust Sony with that role.

At one point people decided that they needed that shiny new ps-only exclusive title regardless. And Sony knows that the majority doesn’t care about control, as long as they don’t take it away from them.

Disabling games which someone bought licensed is a thing with Sony? That ecosystem has bigger problems than a missing disc drive it seems.

What possibilities are lost with the disc(ontinuation)? Has running the PS without a permanent network connection been a regular use case for many? Are DLCs and frequent patches and updates not a thing in the Sony sphere?

That’s the second path of the production line.

How did the Penny get in there?

That is true. For all entities where Girth is not <= Length.

Fusion isn’t as bad as fission or fossil fuel. To date, terrestrial fusion has been a net-negative energy system. That’s strictly worse than fission or fossil.

My mistake. I did not specify in what regard. I had the waste in mind. Fusion waste is radioactive for a few decades. Fuel wise, there is an abundance of Deuterium, like a gram of it in every bucket of ocean water give or take. Tritium? That’s the harder part.

You are right. It doesn’t work yet. And it will be too late to solve the current energy crisis. If they get it working at all. But I see no harm in trying.

Your remaining statements: I did not intend to say that solar and wind power are bad, but they are not flawless (again: sustainability and sourcing).

It doesn’t.

Fusion isn’t as bad as fission or fossil fuel. If they can get it to work. The reactor needs to run continuously (for days) and the energy output needs to be positive. Then it would have a huge impact.

Every energy source as its drawbacks. I.e. Solar panels and wind have the recycling of compound materials issue - it’s all glued together. And the environmental impact of source materials production, i.e. neodymium. Mining, refining,…

Some are worse than others. But none is or will be impact free in terms of sustainability or environmental destruction.

It just works. Once you got it working.

How much is that in metric units?

Someone tried this? It’s called testicle for a reason then.

Nice!
