  Denuvo is DRM not anti-cheat.

  Pressed optical disks, yes. Dye-based writable and re-writable do not last very long at all.

  Depending on the disc, they can last anywhere from 5 to over 100 years. The over 100 year ones are (were?) marketed as archival, and only CD-R. Do not trust any random writable disc to survive very long.

  I tested some backup DVDs from 2012 a couple of months ago and they were completely unreadable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple will cut off third-party app store updates if your iPhone leaves the EU for a month⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  They only have to comply while the device is within the EEA. You leave, you can’t access the 3rd party store. You can’t access the store, you can’t download anything from it.

  When you return, you’re under the DMA and can access it again.
