  There’s a lot of argument online about the actual extent of the performance cut (Denuvo’s)

  All I know about that is a while back I had tried buying Far Cry 6 when it had Denuvo, and it wouldn’t even run on my older pc so I got a refund. Then later I tried a denuvo-less version, it ran like a charm.

  Makes me wonder how much money companies actually lose overall by stuffing that crap in everything in their efforts to make an extra couple dollars off us.

  Yup, mine is plugged into my PC as a monitor, and has no net access. A PC can do everything the tv could do and more, and I can run a firewall/adblockers on it.

  I edited my other comment to include a site more like imgur, cdn.imgpile.com

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Imgur's Community Is In Full Revolt Against Its Owner⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s more similar to old reddit than how imgur is set up, but it’s more community driven, and everyone is very friendly and quite helpful in my experience so far. I can’t say much beyond that as I’m still learning more about it myself.

  I know a bunch have gone over to discuit.org

  OK, but are there any downsides? I see nothing wrong with that.

  That’s the first thing I did with all my Frank Zappa cds… converted them to digital and put the cds away so they wouldn’t end up scratched.

  That’s not what he meant when he said he wanted more head, Karen.

  Yup, Justin isn’t my favorite guy either, but if he is so terrible they wouldn’t have to make shit up to cry about. It just makes them look desperate.

  Canada for instance. A lot of the plays made by republicans are being copied by conservatives here.
