Nice! I have tried it with friends!

The guy who drew it correctly is one of those people that you already know will draw it correctly. It was a fun confirmation.

How does this happen? How does someone who sees bicycles at least once a month fail to draw one?


You don’t. That’s why it must be reputable sources
Alright, I’m tired of this thread, so let’s get this over with.
I know how an engine works, at least to some degree. I know why you need oil. I was pulling your (plural) legs.
Part 1: The fact is that mechanics do try to make you buy stuff and services you don’t really need. It’s just a fact, they are salespeople, it’s their job to convince you to buy stuff. You don’t get to be upset when people say “those pesky mechanics are always trying to make you spend money”, because that is literally in the job description.
Part 2: Unfortunately, we have built a society where everyone needs a car. So we have to make it so anyone can use a car effectively, not only car enthusiasts. Thinking that only some specially skilled and knowledgeable people should be allowed to drive is elitist bullshit. If as you say “these people should not own a car” but then we have made owning cars mandatory, means we have failed all those people as a society.
“BuT iT’s NoT dAnGeRoUs, It’S oNlY fInAnCiAl”… And? Even having a car insurance is only a financial matter, and yet it’s illegal to drive without it.
No get off your collective high horses.


Ah, sorry, I misinterpreted you. DM is fine. I have never used Lemmy’s DM, I expect it to be bad. I have put a matrix address on my Lemmy profile. It’s probably better than Lemmy’s DM


I see, I’m not sure I can help you with that. I don’t really engage with many communities outside of Lemmy. I just lurk in various other places.
Anyway, it looks to me like you are looking for an online bubble where to efficiently isolate yourself, this can’t be good for you. I would suggest meeting with real people instead. Are you still a student? Maybe in university? Then you are probably surrounded by people your age with common interests to you, waiting for you to speak to them. Make friends, it will be fun.
That being said, I do share some of your social anxiety, so this is definitely a “do as I say, not as I do” kind of situation.


Interesting, I didn’t know you could do that through the portal directly.
I was only familiar with uinput because I have used it before to use a wiimote as a mouse, and for that you’d actually want to emulate a mouse.

This is “download and send to the group chat” worthy, but I’m too old to deal with the “What’s that in the background?”
Sorry for your loss 😞🙏

Btw, I just remembered.
You said that “if you could go to the store, buy a disc with the game, like in the good old days” you would prefer that over piracy.
I do encourage you to buy games on GoG (Good Old Games), download the installer, and burn it on a blue ray disk for you to keep.


For steam I already told in the previous comment, cs.rin.ru. You need an account to access the clean files threads.
For gog unfortunately not anymore. Check the r/piracy megathread, see if you find something
If a car breaks on the road it’s a danger to road users, this is just a fact. If it’s really that important it should be part of MOT. As simple as that.
If it’s not that important, then you should not get over people’s asses for that.


I forgot about the gog part. Yeah, you can also use those. There used to be a website that uploaded clean gog installers, but now all the download links are behind those sketchy filesharing services. Though, if you manage to get one, the binary should be signed by the developer. On windows I know you can check the signature by right-clicking on the file, on Linux I don’t remember because I haven’t needed it in a long time.
For the VM you need qemu/kvm. I suggest to use virt-manager which is just a graphical interface for qemu.


First of all, don’t expose yourself to danger. Get your pirated games from reputable sources.
Most games only need a Steam emulator like Goldberg’s to run without license, and you can get clean steam files from cs.rin.ru. You don’t need VMs for this, it’s literally the original game.
If you need an actual crack, you can also look up on cs.rin.ru and try to gauge the reputation of the uploader. You can also check fitgirl or dodirepacks, they are both highly reliable. These are unlikely to have malware, but it’s not impossible.
If you want to use a vm because you still don’t trust the pirated game in question (reasonable), then there is no shortcut. Use the arch wiki to learn how to setup a VM with GPU passthrough, even if you don’t use arch it’s always a good place to get started.
