NHTSA references several SAE standards in their regulations, but they don’t update the references very often, if ever. Many of the referenced standards date back to versions from the '70s and '80s. Back around 2012 I contacted SAE to find out if they provided a package of standards incorporated by reference in NHTSA regulations. I was told they don’t provide such a package, and they couldn’t even sell me the individual standards I needed because they were “out of date”. My only option through SAE was to buy the latest version.
Shortly afterwards Public.Resource.Org posted the standards, and I copied them. But I thought they had lost their court case.
One of the arcades in the town I grew up in had one of these, for a short time. I never played it (I was young enough to not be interested) but saw some of the older kids playing it. Pretty soon afterwards my dad forbid (forbade?) me from that arcade, because he heard that’s where they sold “drugs”. I never made the connection until just now. Pissed me off, because that arcade had Robotron.

Do NOT run a crack or patch of any kind. They may pass a Malwarebytes scan, or test clean on virustotal, but one I just ran across tried downloading a bunch of data when I ran it in a VM. Don’t risk it, I’ve been burned in the past. And now with online banking, Paypal, Venmo, cryptocurrency, it’s just not worth it.
You might try installing the software in a VM, running the patch in the VM, and then moving the software over to your primary, but I would still be worried about that.
The other people here say you’ll probably be fine, but you need to ask yourself if it’s worth giving up any of your passwords to an attacker. At best you’re looking at a completely benign patch, and a working installation of the software. At worst…it can be pretty bad.
Wait for a keygen, or go without the software. Or, and I do this a lot lately, look around for a free, open source equivalent.
Years ago Pirate Bay made a big deal about starting a 3D model repository, but it really didn’t catch on. Too many places to get free models already. Granted there are some places you can buy really high detail models from movies and games (is gambody still around? Will I get a strike for mentioning gambody like I did on reddit?).
If you really want to torrent 3D models, I’ll tell you what I tell everybody. qBittorrent has a very nice search function that, once set up properly, will hit a lot of public trackers straight from the interface. If you have a specific model in mind, give that a shot. Or just search for “3d model” or “STL” or whatever, and you’ll get hits.
All I’ve heard from MAGA so far is that fake electors aren’t illegal, followed by some explanation involving JFK and Hawaii. Now Trump himself is admitting that they’re illegal, but he’s immune?
A lot more people are about to go to jail for him.
Also, fuck MAGA for trying to nullify my vote.
