Depends where you live and how enforced anti piracy laws are. I have downloaded stuff for 15 or so years through 3 or 4 different ISPs from static IP and have never had any issues.

Only thing that you could somehow call a protection is I do not use ISP owned DNS server.

In one of my exams I forgot to remove my watch till the end of exam and later thought result will be cancelled, but luckily it was accepted. I think proctor even commented on that in the end so I was double worried.

Based on 100% disk usage, you probably use HDD (Check performance section in Task manager to see disk model to confirm that). Windows performance on HDD is awful since around Windows 8. SSD is pretty much a requirement for Windows, otherwise you will have terrible experience.

Nothing is 100%. Obviously it is not a common thing, but organized begging is a thing. Another problem is that your ″bread″ money could become ″meth″ money.

Keepass2Android supports many cloud options including Nextcloud and OwnCloud so it sync with storage directly. At least with Dropbox it works like a charm.

It was clearly a joke, I agreed with your comment :)

Some people think there is this magical thing called canon. If something is canon and you heavily dislike it, it messes up your enjoyment for whole franchise and you no longer can enjoy previous entries that you grew up with.

I didn’t like it. You want to tell me that my opinion differs from majority and most people like this trash? Preposterous.

It’s basically this when you see that sticker.

You are not supposed to interact with Help!

Just kidding and not American. If saying ″thanks″ for things like those would yield similar reaction, I would be confused as well. Seems so intuitive to say it.

Have never thought about it before, but while I am right handed I always hold knife in my left hand and eat with right hand. Cutting prepared food with non-dominant hand never felt like a huge task since what you usually cut is easy to cut, it’s not like you are trying to cut a thin slice from huge piece of beef.

Yep, they are called news agencies.

I am pretty sure this was being taught for maybe 1 day in 1st grade after you learn about numbers. For first grader learning analogue clock probably is also a fun activity.

Doubt it, because we have ″Microsoft Government″

For MS guides there usually is an article under support.microsoft.com or learn.microsoft.com (usually more advanced, admin related documentation for company / enterprise level stuff) domains. Here’s an article for checking activity.

True, although I think there usually are either signs or site admins give heads up when site is soon to go under. Doubt Reddit or Twitter will be dead any time soon.

I honestly do not think Internet Archive even should be archiving such behemoths like Reddit or Twitter. Only thing it should keep would be currently dead sites.

Even worse when people are accessing these posts through Archive even when there is a live copy. A lot of storage and bandwidth wasted.

So what you are saying you want a shitty AV that would not recognize a potentially malicious executable? Any normal AV should flag crack as a potential threat due to what it does.

Stick with Defender and whitelist executables you trust. This is computing 101.

You don’t even have to pirate Windows. Without activation everything will work besides some customization (I think you could not change wallpaper) which you can easily bypass if you would really wish to.

the file it would have to be coded explicitly for the video player/system running it.

That’s the method. Rare thing I believe and nothing to worry with patched software. Found 1 example.
