Honest question here. Could it be possibly that as they improved their DRM with more triggers and methods that it has started to impact performance since 2016?
As Empress was cracking Denuvo, I wouldnt be surprised if they started to quickly add extra defencive measures compromising what could have been optimised in the past.
I guess it depends on how you define inflation. To me inflation is the ratio between goods and services and the money supply. Inflation isn’t rising prices. Price rising is a symptom of inflation. I just don’t think it’s beneficial to use inflation interchangeably with supply and demand and price rises, it just creates confusion. I very much favor the macroeconomics view of inflation because through that lens a lot things start making sense.
Since this is your field, obviously you’d know that if you have more goods, you get deflation. And funnily enough when you look up the definition of deflation it’s very strongly tied to that ratio between goods and services and the money supply.
I just feel that over time people have changed the definition of inflation. It’s no surprise that the term Greedflation has popped up because the topic surrounding it has been convoluted, confusing a lot of people.
Inflation is the devaluation of the currency. The definition has been muddied for a time now but ultimately inflation refers to the expansion of the money supply.
As people/corporations borrow more and governments print more, prices increase. Not because those items have more value but because the money has lost its value needing more of it to pay for the same stuff.
If tomorrow everyone’s wages would double. Prices would double as demand would increase and the market balances itself out.
Greedflation is a term that shifts that narrative. You could argue that yes there are bad actors for sure. But the term greedflation is redefining inflation, making you focus more on corporations raising prices instead of the main contributor, an expanding money supply.
NFTs could have a useful case of keeping online records of ownership. Being cars, homes and even cattle. Which coulld also make it easier and cheaper to sell or buy these things.
Ignoring privacy concerns of course.
Oh no! I had no idea. Man that really sucks. They were such a good service
You can port forward with mullvad easily
I’ve never experienced or heard of any airport checking the private contents of people’s devices. Wouldn’t that be a massive breach of privacy?
Also how would they know it’s pirated or not. Wouldn’t they have to check for licenses… Wouldn’t that be incredibly time consuming for staff to be checking?
Im in serious doubt this would be a thing.
“Show me the man and I’ll show you the crime” Lavrentiy Beria, Stalin’s secret police chief bragged that he could prove criminal conduct on anyone, even the innocent.
Before Hitler, why wouldn’t you put down you were Jewish.
You may have nothing to hide now. But who knows how it’ll be used against you in the future. The less people know about you, the better.
TL is pretty lenient. You’re more likely to hit 10 days seeding than actually hitting a 1 ratio. In fact, unless you’re seeding 24/7 you won’t get a lot uploads. But that’s normal. Your time spent seeding earns you points which you can use to give yourself more Downloads in GB or unlocking fun perks.
You can seed intermittently as well and even go days or weeks without having to seed. As long as you don’t rack up a lot of hit and runs in one go and maintaining a good ratio you’ll be fine. But definitely try to hit those seeding requirements.
They also give you a buffer so you’ll start off with a healthy ratio. And they also offer a massive amount of Freeleech torrents which don’t cut into your download ratio. So you can download those ‘for free’ and then seed those to earn uploads/points.
They have stats, how much you upload, download, how long etc. There are even achievements which earn you points too.
I would give them a go for sure. It’s not as strict as you think and they have a wiki with a FAQ which should cover any questions you have.
I no longer recommend 1password. I purchased their life time guaranteed license, only for them to change to a subscription service and gave a middle finger to anyone who bought it. They didn’t even honour their original customers, they offered one or 2 months free. Nah, no thanks.
I would rather try KeePass. That service is open source and free.
YouTube Vanced was shut down because they tried to monetise it by releasing their own crypto NFTs, sparking Google to shut it down. I think for now Revanced is safe.
