Microsoft controls the java licenses (you can only buy it from them). This allows them to check that account x has a valid license as they are also linked to the game account

The bedrock licences are tied to other platforms (Google play, apple appstore, …) and are not tied to the game account. I can login with any account on bedrock (not like java)


The good ones are mostly pc ports (dead cells, stardew vally)



But you don’t understand, if people stop pirating, the subscription prices will go down because of all the parasites who get it for free. The corporations would never just take the additional money and raise prices to get even more, right?


The real successors are pablo’s fork or forks of other devs who were already working on the project.

Just forking and changing the name gets us nowhere.

You need competent devs to work on such projects.





The sites result are questionable. In games you are probably limited by your gpu. The best way to check this is to check the cpu and gpu utilisation.


I’m currently also looking at decompiling android apps and understand a bit of smali. If you send me the apk I might look into it.

If you want to do it yourself, I recommend apktool_m on android. It includes all tools required to decompile the app. It can even show a partially correct java code in apps that are not obfuscated.




I’m also looking into it right now.

The code of android apps is compiled to dalvik bytecode which is contained in the *.dex files in the apk. You will not be able to read it. You need to decompile it to something human readable. One of those formats is smali. The xml files (manifest, ressources) are also compiled and need to be decompiled.

One of the best tools to decompile apks is apktool. It works on pc and there is an unofficial android version. The android version includes an editor and is a gui.

Smali is not that easy to read for beginners so on some apps you can try converting it to java using jadx (standalone on pc and included in apktool mobile). The java code will be full of mistakes and will only be partial but will be readable more easily and will give you a general idea of what the code does. This works well only if the code is not completly obfuscated or was written in kotlin.

I suggest learning about android apps before trying to mod them. Learn Java (and or Kotlin) for android. Learn about activities and other things that are specific to android. If you don’t understand the concepts used in an android app you will probably not be able to mod apps.


The only problem with firefox on android is that its slow af compared to chromium based alternatives. I can’t see a difference on pc but it is clearly noticeable on android.


Just move to a shitty store like EGS.

Their store is to shitty? Pay the 30%.

Either way, never heard of this publisher. I’ll just know not to buy their games anymore.


Age restricted videos are a problem

You can enable those in the settings under content > show age restricted content




Android is not really at risk when using an up to date os and not giving the app sensitive permissions. Android apps are sandboxed and canot do much without permissions. If you want to be sure, use virustotal as other recommended in the thread. Also maybe avoid sketchy sources



Cloudflares blog posts say so so I assume this is true but I would still recommend everyone to verify this for themselves before receiving letters from law firms.


To me it is not 100% clear if your IP is always hidden

This community post talks about mixed results although it says that issue was fixed

A quick Google search and many sites say that warp does not hide your IP altough some say that they added that feature

However this post and this post from the cloudflare team says it does hide your ip.




Im fine with the sound but I largely prefer membrane keyboards to the touch. Low key travel, soft touch







Ah yes, more monopolies in the already completly broken gaming sector. Thats surely gonna help. I know he didnt mean it but I dont see how this could be a good idea. He means open plattforms and pc already exists.




I recommend cromite’s (fork of bromite) adblocking. It works well and I don’t see ads (at least the big ones, maybe I overlooked some smaller ones)


Well I seem to be the only one having it then. Propably some samsung optimizations that clears the cache.


Do you also have the bug in vimusic where your whole offline cache randomly disappears?


The only (ethical) reason not to pirate games is indie. But I still buy on Steam/Gog cause its convenient / I don’t risk malware.


Oh OK. I never knew this was as convenient or this did not exist a few years ago. Only was for a pogo hack (time where the good ones were only on iOS) though so not very important.



Buy why do you need so many linux isos? Can’t you just pick a distro and stick with it?
