  • The point being that if we all just post links left and right noone knows if its credible or not, often people just post garbage, instead why not post how you get the file instead of posting a link.

    Explain them how to find said repacker/cracker/ripper. When someone asks me for a game i usually say, check fitgirl/prowlar/jackett/bitmagnet (Insert X piracy site here). On rare occasions i sent them a magnet straight away but usually only people i know. If you were completely new to piracy and clicked on a link here that almost certainly contained malware with the only creds being the op saying(trust me bro)

    Then i fully understand why they would not want something like that here. This is a place for discussion around piracy not your latest piratebay alternative :/


  • would the mods support your reckless behavior AND take on the liability by letting you post garbage links?

    Even if its a offline unlock you are still distributing someone else code, most licenses prohibit distribution of code without the consent of the owner. Offline unlocks(In the form of cracks, Keygens or Registry changes) that subvert copy protection could also hold you liable for legal problems.

    So i understand why a link like that would be banned, try posting a MAGNET instead next time :P



  • ted that way, but I had a disk with a single partition that contained a single file - the raw disk image file, and eventually decided this is silly, the filesystem In that case its silly, i always try to dedicated hardware to things based on needs so

    1TB NVME: RootFS 8TB 2x SSD4TB: Home partition 2TB NVME: Neural Network Models, Games requiring fast storage.

    Based on that i setup my mounts in fstab so its not just vm images on there, i have 3 virtual disks for each class on there and i try to keep my VM images as small as possible so that i have more space for non VM things


  • r it, I used it for the VM as a block device. Later after a GRUB update I discovered Windows in my GRUB boot menu. Turns out GRUB detected my VM, and now I can physically boot into my VM. Which I didn’t even know was possible.

    Grub did not detect your VM, it detected a bootable operating system on the drive because you passed it through to your VM. So yeah its a nice way to be able to do both VM and Dual boot.

    But i prefer using a raw disk file image on my btrfs FS because i have a sub volume for the windows 11 disk images that allows me to use btrfs filesystem snapshots with windows, so whenever i make a mistake on windows i can restore it to working state within 5 minutes.

    I also prefer windows not running on bare metal, because i don’t trust it or what runs on it enough for that.
