  • Migrating from DigitalOcean to Hetzner: From $1,432 to $233/month With Zero Downtime

  • Yes it’s ok, in general. It’s not the most modern or efficient way of managing infrastructure but it’s worked for decades now. It all depends on what you’re hosting, for who, and for how many people.

    If you’re hosting internal company infrastructure for a relatively static number of users in a single of set few regions to deliver to, bare metal monolithic stuff is absolutely fine. It’s when you’re an app or service company and your infrastructure is for the back end for a public service that needs to be able to scale dynamically, and you’re worried about high 24/7 uptime, and latency to end users is a global issue that things like microservice architecture, containerization, and iac starts becoming important.

    The whole containerization crazy is important for microservices architecture where you split your app into different pieces. This lets you scale different parts of you app as needed, it prevents your entire app from failing just because one part of it failed, it allows for lifecycle management like blue/green deployments with no downtime, allows developers to work on different parts of the app and update at a faster cadence than one big release for the entire thing every time you update one small part of it, things like that.

    No, I think it will have even less.

  • There were several Denuvo cracks in that period actually, just not as many.

    Other games get cracked day 0 even though it's equally thankless. That obviously isn't the distinguishing factor.

    Denuvo games also get cracked day 0. Not sure what your point is, or at this point if you even have one.

    At the end of the day, what I said was correct. There was a period of time where we had less cracks, and now it’s ramping back up again. There doesn’t seem to be anything about Denuvo that stops its games from being cracked fairly quickly other than a lack of people to do the cracking.

    These are all verifiably correct and factual statements. Whatever it is you’re whinging and whining about… I don’t know what to tell you.

    Everyone lost "interest" simultaneously for multiple years? They got bored or something?

    Who is this “everyone” you speak of? You realize pirate scene groups are very niche groups of people right?

    I mean yes, people who are not in pirate scene groups are largely so because they’re not interested in being so. I’m not interested, and I’m not in one. I’m not sure what it is that you’re implying is keeping people out of these groups besides a lack of interest. Do you think doing a thankless job like that is fun? I don’t think it would be.

  • What on earth are you talking about? You’re all tied up in knots. I’m not talking about any non-Denuvo games.

    every single denuvo game with millions in sales gets left alone for years

    I mean if you ignore the ones that don’t, then sure. Most recently RE Requiem just came out and is a AAA hit with millions of sales, has Denuvo, and has already been cracked. That doesn’t sound like it was “left alone for years” to me.

  • And those exact same people suddenly gain an interest as soon as denuvo is removed?

    No the lack of interest is probably there in both cases.

    "well I wasn't even trying anyways!" excuse lol

    Generational levels of cope on display here. “My lock is so effective that NOBODY* can break it!”

    *No one has tried

    By that logic the locking mechanism on my old 1998 Ford Taurus I was driving in 2015 had a state of the art security system that protected it that would put modern solutions to shame because for some reason, it was never stolen.

  • It’s like I said, the biggest opposition to game pirating isn’t the protection Denuvo actually provides but just the lack of interest in people doing the cracking.

    I can see where you’d argue that this means Denuvo is “working” but only in the sense that any old $2 lock you put on your front door is protecting your home from the 0 people attempting to break and enter.

    Also in the void EMPRESS left in the scene, there have been newcomers, but they’ve started off by cracking older games.

  • Leak Shows ICE Planning to Use Facial Recognition Glasses to Identify Targets in Real Time

  • I mean court’s not really a factor. The surveillance tech is only to help identify targets. One they nab you that’s it. The Supreme Court already ruled that it’s ok for them to target people based only on race. The confidence level of the tech against your covered face is sorta irrelevant in this scenario.

  • Not really. It’s trivial to match your face. If you use an iPhone with FaceID it won’t miss a beat. You have to cover your full face, head, and eyes.

    The problem with this is that the idea of “KN95 and a hoodie” is that you’d still reasonably blend in. By the time you reach the point t of covering every identified part of your head, you’d also stick out like a sore thumb which doesn’t help you when the camera surveilling you is attached to the face of an ICE agent looking specifically in your direction.
