Oh God, I never saw the rest of the no poop challenge. From "Help me not poop for three days," to "Help I ate gummy worms and have to not poop for three days," to "I didn't poop for three days and now I can't poop help."
It definitely happens with extremists on both sides, but I think it's much more common on the right. Like, I encounter it on streets all the time from the right. I recently had a "climate change doesn't exist because a day was cool last week" conversation with someone on the fourth-straight record high day in a row.
I'd say they probably still have the source. It looks like they did the same thing for Manhunt and Max Payne, but then pulled older, pre-SecuROM exes from their archives when they got busted.
It means the publisher was too lazy/greedy to remove their ancient DRM themselves and just nabbed the work someone else did, slapped Steam Stub on top and sold it.
Sad fact is, Rockstar doesn't give a shit. They got busted using a cracked EXE in the Steam release, so they just tried to cover their asses by using an old EXE without SecuROM. I expect the same thing from this game before long.
Couple lucky things for the players, though. First off, the Razor 1911 crack is still in the files, they just renamed it to testapp. Second, old RS games have a dedicated community that give way more of a shit about them than Rockstar ever will. Silent and Fire Head have both released major patches for Manhunt that not only get it running right, but fix a bunch of other broken shit that Rockstar never cared enough to deal with.
Better than their in-house attempts to remove anti-piracy measures. The Steam release of Manhunt has had all of its bullshit triggered for over ten years now. It's literally impossible to play without community patches.
Edit: Lol, as it turns out, Silent's discovery of this was triggered by the recent revelation of this about Manhunt!
You're not a shill for "genuinely liking a product" or "correcting disinformation" (which, btw, are both obvious b.s.), you're a shill for denying any lying about genuine issues.
You're a shill for your staunch refusal to accept that there's a difference between "using a browser" and "receiving advertisements that pop up over your content or in your notification bar."
You're a shill for responding to mention of the half-truths they (and people like you) propagate with the dismissive "Wait you actually clicked the ads?"
You're a shill because you willingly admit that you don't care about the shady shit they do, and you clearly don't want other people to care.
You're a shill for implying that anyone who would point out the shady shit they do is simply dumber or less informed than you.
Getting popup ads is a far cry from "just browsing," and despite claims otherwise, I always noticed a fairly stark difference from month to month that seemed to coincide with whether or not I was clicking the ads. 🤔
My favorite part of all these mad shilling comments in getting as how not a single one of them addresses the carbon copy "BRowSeR tHAT PaYS YoU!!!" reviews, they just all go "Hmm, but it says you don't have to click, haha, you fool, you liar! You are discredited!"
Regardless of what they claim, I noticed a large difference between months where I did and didn't bother to click their push notification ads. Well, as large a difference there can be on a maximum of $0.75/month.
What are you on about? Clicking is literally the only way to get anything from it, period. I used to use Brave on both mobile and desktop, and that was true universally. You don't get BAT unless you click the ads.
Yeah, and there's definitely some pay-offs going on with their reviews. Almost every one of them says something close to "This browser pays you just for browsing the internet!," most of them don't mention that it's crypto, and none of them mention that it has nothing to do with browsing, but is instead for clicking integrated ads.
