1337x admins allowing BG3 torrent with bitcoin miner stand after multiple reports in comments with proof, seems like the site lost it’s credibility. Suspicious that the user is also shilling to donate to 1337x, suspecting him being somehow affiliated with 1337x mods

      I don’t remember what program, but I remember coming across some people who didn’t feel comfortable giving games like Valorant and Genshin Impact kernel level access so ran it on what they called bare metal or something running it off another drive. Maybe it was Ventoy?

      Have wondered if a dedicated drive for just pirated software and games would help keep the main system safer with how cheap ssds have gotten. Maybe a way to run it off an external ssd while blocking off access to other storage that doesn’t have pirated content?

              I mean, I get what you’re saying, and yeah in your scenario it doesn’t make sense. There are some people for who piracy is much more necessary

                  I dunno but me personally I love to play devils advocate even if I don’t necessarily agree with what I’m saying 100% just for the sake of being able to hash it out with somebody other than my self.

                  I’m saying that it seems like you’re shutting down rather than having a calm discussion, you absolutely seem like the weird one here bud
