HOTD = Haiku of the Damned?
A lot of games where either not available at all or we had robots, green blood or missing assets in them.
We even had that problem in the UK with Carmageddon. It wasn’t a problem to locate the correct files, though!
I’ve been sailing the high seas, or at least skirting the shores, since the late 1980s when my classmates and I were swapping BBC Micro software on 5¼" disks! Moved onto PC in 1990 and carried on. I even cracked a few games back in the day :-) These days I don’t pirate so much, and I have quite a collection of legitimate music and software.
However, in the UK at least, the ISPs are required to log your activity and pass on to the relevant authorities if requested. Best to use an approved VPN to be sure.
AirVPN recommended here. Compatible with WireGuard and they have a Linux client, too.
I used to torrent Linux ISOs, but lately I have been using the network image of Tumbleweed on a USB stick and installing over t’internet.
From a Linux user’s point of view, Epic refuses to support Linux. They also refuse to support their own games using EAC on Linux (via Proton) despite EAC being Linux-compatible.
EDIT: Grammar.
I hope AirVPN can still stay in business. I also hope that other governments don’t start getting ideas.
I’ve been using AirVPN for quite a while and they are reliable and very Linux-friendly. The Linux GUI (Eddie) is easy to use, too.
CODEX is defunct these days. I can’t seem to find a valid source of X-Plane at all at the moment.
