    This is why we need better resource/battery management services with Magisk or Xposed integration. On my phone the Rom has one integrated already, lets you set apps to be prevented from running in the background completely, preventing tracking, annoying notifications, and battery usage. Though unfortunately these types of tools aren't available on all roms, and they really need root or system access to be effective.

    If one of the steps was leaking the source code then you could say that. Though who knows maybe AI reverse engineering will get good enough that we'll soon be able to turn the assembly code back into C++ or C. Then you can port the software to whatever you like.

    With assembly you're very much limited to the hardware it targeted and without a huge amount of work the operating system that it targeted as well.

    Considering the extreme risk involved despite the low odds, I would not.
    It is tempting and the odds of hitting that 1% on the first press are low, so the chance of a payoff is very good, but on the other hand, you won't get any money if you hit that 1% first try, so even leaving money for loved ones is out of the question there.

    Silicon isn't a conductor, it's a semiconductor. Also conductivity is dependent on temperature, hot stuff usually conducts easier, though some things conduct easier when they are colder. Even at the low voltage it's more complicated than "Conductors" and "Insulators" we learn in those ultra basic electronics guides online (or in school if you're lucky).

    The problem is that basically any anti-cheat that isn't server side and is installed locally on the machine is in one way or another a rootkit (especially the ring 0 ones), and because their purpose is obfuscation they often do more than they say they do and their operators have no accountability, we can't, and shouldn't trust them. Server side ones make sense and I don't have any issues with those, as those can't affect the host machine (except due to vulnerabilities).

    Though I’d argue it should be optional for “private” experiences, like private servers.

    I'm a big proponent for decentralized online play where the servers aren't based on the company which has a desire to make money off you (the whole reason they're trying to put rootkits in people's computers). Especially after all the shit around online games terminating their services and becoming unplayable, for games with decentralized online play and matchtaking services this basically wouldn't happen, sure a game could become unpopular but even if there were no servers for a game like that, one could still start up a server for their friends to play on together, these games never really die.

    Considering how awful I've seen anti-cheat discussions on Steam and Xbox go I really don't have much hope for those people's ability to unite together against something like this. Oh and in case people try and say that anti-cheat and DRM are different things, that is true, but also not really, they're both software designed to restrict the things that a user can do with a game they have bought, the only difference is that anti-cheat is way more accepted, and the community is willing to witch-hunt and slander people who don't accept it. Also I've seen cases of Anti-cheats in singleplayer games being used as a sort of anti-tamper DRM, so they're really not that different.

    Also even if I was it still wouldn't be my decision alone and would be up to the rest of the team to decide, because that's how a large instance is run, you don't just go do big things like that randomly without having a discussion about it first.

    Most people on hexbear with any desire to participate in good faith will have other accounts elsewhere, Hexbear is already isolated as can be so multiple accounts is basically required for them to participate on the rest of the Fediverse. Shouldn't feel too bad about cutting off their Hexbear accounts since they almost certainly have others.

    Really wish people would take the time to learn how the options work and not just assume they work a certain way, instance blocks are just for communities and not the users on the instance:

    Users can now block instances. Similar to community blocks, it means that any posts from communities which are hosted on that instance are hidden. However the block doesn’t affect users from the blocked instance, their posts and comments can still be seen normally in other communities.

    When people frame this option as if it's an alternative to defederation it is both deceptive and dishonest because it does not help with the current issues instances like hexbear bring to the table, it just blocks the communities of that instance.

    Not really, the good people will just make accounts elsewhere and start using those accounts to interact here and on the rest of the fediverse, most of the good ones already do that because hexbear is already very isolated by virtue of the fact they're using whitelist federation and also the fact that they already have been defederated for the spam, trolling, and harassment their less savory members bring about (and more importantly the fact that it is unpunished by their instance's moderators if not encouraged).

    You may want to remember that blocking servers in lemmy only really targets the communities and doesn't target users from the instance. So in these situations it kinda doesn't do anything. It's a common misconception that instance blocking in Lemmy is stronger than it actually is and many people think it does things that it doesn't actually do.

    Users can now block instances. Similar to community blocks, it means that any posts from communities which are hosted on that instance are hidden. However the block doesn’t affect users from the blocked instance, their posts and comments can still be seen normally in other communities.

    By use of a voltage glitching chip that glitches the chip to bypass checks and inject the boot code. It's a different exploit altogether and requires hardware modding. That method can mod all Switches from Late v1 systems all the way up to the OLED and the exploit might even work on the Switch's sucessor (would require a new chip for the new hardware and likely modifications to the glitching routine)

    The issue is the server doesn't use plugins since they had lots of issues after each update while using plugins and the maintainers decided it wasn't worth it to maintain that. So as is it only has a script to minitor chat for commandts like :home :spawn :warp etc. and is otherwise completely vanilla.

    There are some downsides like that villagers don't breed but they also do give out spawn eggs and occasionally spawners, so it's still reasonably easy to renew villagers. Big downside is that farmers can't replant crops, so all crop farms are manual.

    Well the 3ds is much older and also never had it's hardware exploit released to Nintendo before the New 3DS came out.

    Not the case with Nintendo because as Kate Temkin on her moral high horse decided to kiss Nintendo's ass and give it away to be patched on all later Nintendo Switch revisions (wasn't entirely her but she helped Nintendo directly). So there goes the Switch's equivalent of NTRboot and also probably its eqivalent of B9S as well since the New SoCs also disable auto payload rebooting functionality in AMS.

    With how much the bootloader has been documented it seems unlikely anything besides a glitching exploit (or massive leak at Nintendo) will be able to mod the later Switch revisions, you never know of course, but it doesn't look promising

    I think it will be, I think the only console that can't be hacked without a hardmod is the Xbox 360? But I am unaware if it is because it has a solid security system or just the lack of interest for prominent people lol.

    I don't think it's lack of interest, over the years they have streamlined the process of hard modding, nowadays you don't even need a glitch chip you just need to connect a wire between two points to attain a similar result.

    I imagine that it's likely a similar type of refinement will happen in switch hard modding.

    Very doubtful of full soft mods happening anytime soon though unless the keys are obtained somehow.

    I don't really plan on getting them though unless I can find at least an AroAce flag in the purple and green color scheme. Which I haven't up until now, technically I couldn't find a pin either but pins are easy to get custom made, flags not so much (at least I never looked into it).

    This is such a stupid argument considering you don't need a fucking giant ass data center to host a tiny little git server. I've seen this argument time and time again, but the real reason people go with VPSes is convenience and laziness.

    I would absolutely agree with the other person that renting your own VPS is not self-hosting, not by a long shot. You could argue that you need a massive host for a large video or music platform, or even a large git platform with thousands of repos, but not for a tiny single user, single project forgejo or gitlab instance or a single static web page.

    Yes, but often those countries come with their own huge bag of problems.

    Not saying they don't, everything has pros and cons and you need to decide what's really important to you and whether or not it's worth overcoming the challenges associated, many decide it isn't, and that's okay, but some decide it is and choose to pursue it.

    I'm saying we don't give the copyright and corporate trolls what they want and act or talk like the enemy states out of their reach don't exist or that someone couldn't or wouldn't go there to do the dirty work, or imply that these places are going away sometime in the near future.

    All not that easy and it can get highly criminal very fast.

    Of course it is, anyone should know that working in and for an enemy country is criminal. If someone didn't understand that they need to pick a side in the world they deserve what they get. Most people who are dedicated enough to go that far understand the risks well enough, and are willing to take them.

    This also does help @pretendo with the revival of the online services as network dumps help them more accurately rebuild the services for individual games.

    Minecraft Piracy Resources

    This post contains a list of resources for people wishing to play Minecraft for free, including launchers, bypasses for launcher account checks, and skin/auth services. ### Launchers This section focuses on custom launchers. #### PollyMC PollyMC is a fork of the popular launcher known as PrismLauncher, it has been modified to remove the Premium account requirement, and also has had other features re-added like FTB modpack support and curseforge bypass which many other launchers chose to remove. In addition PollyMC also comes with support for [Alternative Auth Services](https://github.com/fn2006/PollyMC/wiki/Alternative-Auth-Servers). The launcher is available on Windows, MacOS, and Linux, and even has flatpak available (not available in flathub). [PollyMC Github](https://github.com/fn2006/PollyMC) #### Legacy Launcher Legacy Launcher, formerly known as TLauncher is a Minecraft Launcher with support for the Ely.by auth server as well as robust modding support. In Legacy launcher you need to download mods and modpacks manually as it doesn't have download support built-in to the client like PollyMC. To download you will need to use a VPN to another country as the Admins of the site disabled downloads to certain countries. You could also use the russian Mirror version of the site. [Official Site](https://llaun.ch/en) [Russian Mirror](https://lln4.ru/en) For the Flathub version you will have to run this command to bypass Microsoft account requirements:\ `flatpak --user override ch.tlaun.TL --env=TL_BOOTSTRAP_OPTIONS=-Doomsday` #### Prism/Poly/MultiMC Bypass If you really want to use the Original Prism or MultiMC Launcher versions these have Microsoft account requirements in them, however it is possible to bypass this requirement. A guide by the name of [PrismLauncher bypass](https://rentry.co/freemc) highlights how to do this, both automatically via commands or manually by copying the file. The accounts.json file also works on MultiMC and other similar forks. #### Warning about Malicious Launchers There are certain launchers out there such as TLauncher which are malicious and include spyware in them. Such Launchers are often named after or similarly to well known reputable launchers. It's important to only download reputable launchers from official sources. ### Alternate Auth/Skin servers This next section focuses on alternate auth servers, these are a few picked from the list of auth servers on PollyMC's github. #### [Ely.by](https://ely.by) Ely.by is one of the more popular Auth servers, it includes its own Skins system, which is proxied with the official one allowing both skin systems to be active together. In addition Ely.by can also be installed on servers which allows for it to be used as authorization in place of the official servers. #### [Blessing Skin Server](https://skin.prinzeugen.net/) Blessing skin server is another popular authorization server, as the name implies this one's primary focus is on Minecraft skins, it supports both regular and also HD skins. It does have auth support as well but its auth support isn't as well documented as ely\.by. #### [LittleSkin (alt Instance of Blessing Skin)](https://littleskin.cn) A secondary instance of Blessing Skin with basically the same features, just on a different website. ### Non-Premium Servers While the majority of Minecraft servers these days are premium servers there are still plenty of servers which do not require premium account login. You can find these servers on various lists such as: - [TopG](https://topg.org/minecraft-servers/type/No-Premium/) - [Minecraftlist.org](https://minecraftlist.org/category/cracked-servers) - [MinecraftIPList.com](https://www.minecraftiplist.com/server-tags/Nopremium) Mos of these servers are public Minigames servers, if you want more survival oriented or building servers these are harder to find. People can feel free to share servers they know of here. Also there are basically no free servers at all which use alternate auth servers like ely.by and BlessingSkin, Hopefully this can change in the future, if you know of any such servers feel free to share them in this community.
