All the private trackers I use have bonus systems so you can still build ratio. It's usually a slow start on a new tracker but once you get established it's very easy to keep a 1:1 or better ratio. I don't bother with debrid services because paying for piracy is where I draw the line.
As for checking hashes, I don't do it on any of the private trackers I use but OP seems overly paranoid so I figured it was solid advice for them. I always checked when I still used public trackers. Only twice did I ever find a mismatch, one was actually malicious and the other was just a random crc error.
That's fair. As long as the hash matches what is in the predb nfo, you should be good to go. I have encountered legit looking releases on public sites with edited nfo files though so definitely double check against a reliable source ce for that.
OOT is ok but most people that played wind waker or twilight princess first will have a hard time getting into it. Most 5th gen games have aged pretty poorly and need a solid dose of nostalgia to fully enjoy.
Scared white men think the initiatives mean they'll be passed over for a less qualified diversity hire. They don't understand that jobs have been going to less qualified white men, instead of more qualified minorities for decades.
If inflation wasn't through the roof maybe. As it is, some of them are making slightly less than they were 3 years ago instead way less. The only ones winning are the oligarchs.
I'm going to go against what others are saying and advise against the raspberry pi. If you are serious about ps2, ps3 and gamecube, the pi will struggle with more games than it runs well. Especially for ps3, you'll want at least a 4c/8t CPU, preferably no more than 5 years old, anything less will struggle.
I'll take my lumps in this case. Gary Bowser is a piece of trash for a plethora of reasons. The precedence this case sets is honestly pretty terrible but the punishment couldnt have happened to a better person.
More like a strict belief that piracy should be free. In Gary's case, charging money for sxos and adding DRM to it is what really bothers me though I will admit that I don't like the precedence this case sets.
I pirate the absolute shit out of Nintendo games and everything else. My issue isn't with the piracy, it's with people profiting off of piracy. Those people can get fucked and I love to see it.
