Every single game with Denuvo has been bypassed
Bypass is available for all denuvo games on day 0

Irdeto is seething hard and saying more invasive DRM is coming. I'm guessing they will demand kernel level access in later versions of Denuvo.

Will Microsoft allow them that?

>Just trying to research history, write code, and browse the web without a digital leash.
>Governments decide "Safety" = "Total Surveillance."

The trap is set: Every platform now demands a government ID, a biometric face scan, or a third-party "Age Verification" pass just to access basic information. These "verification" startups are massive honeypots. Remember the 2025 Discord partner breach? 70k+ IDs and selfies leaked because a "safety" company left the back door open. By "verifying," you aren't getting safety. You're handing your legal identity to the highest bidder. Restricting minors isn't about protection; it's about control. They want to define what "harmful content" is so they can curate a sanitized, lobotomized version of reality for an entire generation. Freedom of Information is a right, not a subscription service tied to a passport.
I want to end this age restriction thing once and for all! We need to stop playing along with this "Digital ID" creep and do something about the whole internet slowly getting restricted.

It only requires a modicum of critical-thinking skills to realise that age verification is ONE HUNDRED PERCENT about surveillance-creep. If governments truly cared about "saving the heckin' kiddarinos", then they'd be discouraging parents from buying smartphones and laptops for their children. Timmy can't get groomed by a pedo on Discord if he can't even use the internet. Nor can he access internet porn or social media.

Parents that buy a smartphone for their child should be shamed and ridiculed. It shouldn't be considered "normal" for a child to own a smartphone. As long as children are allowed easy access to smartphones and computers, then governments can always say "Ooh ooh Timmy's got a smartphone! He's getting groomed by le heckin' pedo!!!" Why not just take the fucking smartphone away? It'd be better for children's mental and emotional development anyway.

>inb4 Timmy will find another way to get a phone.
Of course he'll try to circumvent his parents and disobey. That's what kids do. Then as soon as the parents find out, they should discipline him by smashing it with a hammer and making him watch.

Every politician out there supporting this, is de facto selling our privacy for handouts. There will be proof surfacing, and there will be politicians going to jail over this.

at what point did hardware manufacturers give up on making really fast HDDs (like picrel) and let SSDs take over? my first desktop from 2009 or so had a 7200rpm drive, and then the Xbox One i got later used a 5400rpm one.

i just find it strange because (to me) things were all over the place. my older sister's laptop from ~2019 still came with a mechanical drive, but it was during the era where they tried to cope with Optane (which afaik didn't work out well for consumers). i'm sorry if this is really incoherent and dumb but just a simple outline would be nice

Wrong, random access speed is very important for system responsiveness and multi-tasking. Solid-state media took that away from high RPM HDDs.

Around 2015. Even if you did have a laptop with a HDD at that time most likely the OS was on an NVME with a HDD for extra data storage

lots of vibrations for relatively little sustained speed increases and very little random 4k improvements vs just buying an ssd
youre better off using the space required for padding to dissipate the vibrations for larger platters
dual actuators are a much better compromise between speed and capacity

>Some autistic motherfucker will talk about seek times, but all of those are on the level of milliseconds now in hard drives.
>t. loads the entire OS into a ramdisk
There's a reason hardware reviewers had to invent new benchmarks for SSDs. The performance improvement for everyday tasks was that fucking big because you're not just loading 1 file, it's a hundred small files per program. Even if they were just nanoseconds it would still add up fast.
The average consumer doesn't care about sustained IOPS, they just want Windows and Office and Chrome to start quicker. HDDs never stood a chance.
>>
>>108517375
The only way you gonna get an HDD to read and write faster is if literally just spin the drive faster and its not worth it in especially as we progressed towards the age of solid state storage. Noisier and less longevity overall as you have to deal with the vibrations that come with spinning the disk faster.

SSDs just made sense as advancements in fabrication made it possible and cheaper for a consumer to get a 1TB SSD with a read/write of over 6gb/s for less than $150

Other business laptops are welcome in /tpg/ (Dell Latitude/Precision, HP EliteBook/ZBook)

Why ThinkPad?
>Used machines are plentiful and cheap
>Utilitarian design: e.g. mix of old and new ports, stable keyboard layout
>Easy to repair, upgrade (some models) & maintain thanks to readily available service manuals, spare parts easy to obtain
>Usable in cramped quarters thanks to the TrackPoint

today was one of the weirdest encounters i’ve had at work

i’m a supervisor at a company, and one of the employees i’ve been overseeing for about 4 months uses ubuntu on his work laptop. it was always a bit inconvenient since everyone else uses macs (company provided), so we’d have to deal with flash drives or uploads instead of just airdrop, but whatever — he got his work done so i didn’t care

until today

i gave him something urgent to finish. came back after an hour and asked if he was done. he says he’s “having issues with his OS”

we’re on a tight deadline, so i offer him a spare dell latitude to just get it done quickly

this guy straight up refuses and says “i don’t use this trash”

at that point i don’t even care, i just tell him we need to finish the task NOW. he takes the laptop… and instead of doing the work, he starts trying to install ubuntu on it

that’s when i lost it. like actually what are you doing? you’re on the clock, we’re behind, and you’re reinstalling your favorite OS instead of doing your job

He can't use the other operating system, he doesn't know how to use it, give the task to someone else or give him alot more time.
>>
>>108519603
You think that's what happens? Shit, he'll claim hostile work environment and get unemployment while he finds another job. Not to mention he's a freetard so he likely lives borderline monastic and has loads of savings. I always make sure that I've got enough saved up that I can say "fuck this place" if something happens to make my work life unpleasant to the point where I'm miserable.

And working with a bunch of cunts who literally won't install localsend so that ALL of you can "airdrop" to each other regardless of OS gives me a pretty good idea that there's two sides to this story. Though 99.9% chance this is engagement bait bullshit anyway and never happened.
