They were but not as a 3d model. Someone has to actually make that 3d model and it looks like that person was the guy from the article.

In the baking? This literally came up the second this situation arose. People jumped from "This upload has a miner" via "People got banned for reporting it" to "The proceeds from the miner go directly to the admins" within one single post. And all most people had to say was "Well, where do I go now?".

Same here. My children, mainly my daughter, use Netflix MUCH more than my wife and I. So the "just pirate the stuff" doesn´t really apply. If I want to see a specific movie or series, sure. But my kids don´t even watch with the intention of finishing a series or whatever. They browse and watch what catches their eye. That can´t be easily done with pirated stuff. And for me and my wife, it´s kinda similar. We don´t have the time or interrest to watch that many movies. Most of the time, we have like an hour to spare, we plop down on the couch, browse through what new cooking or duocumentaries there are and just watch something.

Now, at the moment, we still use a friends account. Seems like the "Kids" profile still works and on mobile everything still works fine. But as soon as that´s over, I can´t promise that I won´t have to get my own account...as much as it saddens me.

Yeah, It´s kinda fucked up since normally, competition is good for the customer. It´s a good thing to have different stores you can go to. It´s a cood thing to have different car or moobile phone brands to chose from.

With streaming though, I can´t really think of any real world situation where the customer actually is worse off with more variety to chose from.

You are aware that we are in a piracy group here, right? We don´t want our money back. Because we didn´t pay for it in the first place!

What does this have to do with laws though? I find it pretty reasonable for a film company to be able or allowed to run their own streaming platform and just not sell their shows to say netflix. If I create something that I want to sell my self, in my own store, there should be no law forcing me to also hand it over to that supermarket down the streat to sell it there. And if I want to charge a monthly fee for even being able to enter my own little store, that should also not be prohibited.

Imagine there would be a law that said, every studio would also have to sell their stuff to netflix. You think, Netflix wouldn´t immediately abuse this power to drive any competition out of business?

Don´t get me wrong, I HATE that to be able to watch all the stuff I might be interrested in, I´d have to subscribe to like 5 different services. I just don´t see how laws would be a good tool to deal with that.

There´s a inbuilt store where you buy and download them. It´s basically android under the hood, you can even install regular android apps via the apk. So if there were pico game apks out there, I´d say that´s all it would take.

EDIT: Looks like I found a discord that has what you are looking for. Report back if it worked for you! https://discord.gg/FtWVdRGg

I´m wondering about that as well. I know that you can in fact install apk files on it, so by my estimation, if yut get a hold of a cracked apk of a pico game, you´d be set.

Good Idea. It's widely accepted that cognitive capabilities can decline rapidly with old age. It simply makes no sense that a person that needs 8 tries and 10 minutes to change the station on their TV is still allowed to operate a two ton death machine without any checks in place.

The important part here is to make it so that it ONLY "catches" declined driving capabilities and is not also biased in terms of social and financial status or maybe if you're an immigrant or something.

I´m sure the will be no false strikes at all. And even if, I´m sure they have a quick and easy appeal process in place, just like they have with copyright.

What's aggressive routing? Like more prone to induce road rage?
