It’s astounding how universal this hatred is. No one likes these things except the people who think it saves on labor costs (which, does it even? they’re replacing a menu that was already automated…)

It doesn’t even take swearing for some of them - I had one earlier this week that hung up on me when I tried pressing zero to see if that got me anywhere. Touchier than humans.

Out of date tbh - It’s never a labyrinthine phone tree anymore, it’s a “natural speech” based menu that can never help with more than the most basic inquiries like “how much is my bill?” and still stubbornly refuses to put you in the queue for a real person.

This kind of integration is pretty much the whole point of kbin. People should be gravitating toward lemmy if they don’t want this and toward kbin if they do.

I started a DU playthrough and laughed almost as hard as I alt-F4ed the first time I picked one of those fantasize options and saw what happened. 10/10 addition to the dialogue tree

Was funnier without the whole fig circle tbh

It’s a context thing, not a language thing. People will usually assume your title (hydrox) has something to do with the thing you posted (oreo knockoffs).

Did you just call Hydrox an Oreo knockoff

My dude, the better-entrenched brand is not always the original.

Hey, thanks for that link! I’m really glad to have the details so I can verify for myself.

However, with that, I can REALLY confirm this is not an issue inherent to the DODI repack. DODI’s is what I’m using and I have none of that on my system – I checked with that powershell command, then also followed along with the comments to check other files and scheduled tasks that were mentioned.

That said, I got my download from torrentleech. I suspect a tainted version of the repack got onto certain other sites. It wouldn’t be the first time (which is why I specify trusted sites and uploaders in addition to release groups).

For the RUNE release, it probably has more to do with what AV they’re using and how sensitive it is. Cracked games flag AVs all the time, you have to pay attention to what it’s alerting you about. If you’re being careful and clean about the sites, uploaders, and release groups you trust, that “trojan” is usually nothing more than an injected hook to defeat DRM.

The DODI repack is based on the RUNE release which I believe is clean. Another commenter claims a found Trojan but there are others who found nothing, and imo it’s probably just the usual crack shenanigans.

Edit: See replies! It seems there are tainted versions of the repack out there, but there are clean ones too. Remember to keep a critical eye on your sites and uploaders in addition to your release groups. There’s a useful link in a reply to me below showing what you might see if you’ve downloaded a bad one.

You’ve just described literally everyone whose fashion ever went beyond jeans and basic shirts. Hell, even some of them have embarrassing haircuts.

Nobody can read it, check the source of your comment.

Correction: No one browsing through your specific server can read it. The rest of us see it just fine.

From where I’m sitting, it seems like the filter is applied (a) when a lemmy.ml user makes a post (it strips it from the source and says removed for everyone) and (b) when lemmy.ml federates another instance’s comment over (source instance and any other non-censored federated instance has the word intact, ONLY you guys don’t see it).

Come see!

There’s something to be said for putting the blame where it belongs, which is likely not on you.

If your friend did something illegal that could harm others, it needed to be handled. Period. It’s a natural response that any decent person should take. The blame is not on the reporter, it’s on your friend for doing something so bad you felt compelled to report it.

And a bonus fuck him for putting you in that position where you now have to wrestle with self-doubt. That’s not a good friend, leaving you to bear the emotional burden of his actions.

They’re just protecting themselves; Nintendo’s legal team is infamously tenacious and expensive to defend against, so yuzu can’t give them the slightest indication they support the real day-to-day use case of their software.

They dance so we can sail.
