I can't answer your question in the title, but I can say what I do whenever I learn a new programming language (even if its temporary just to play around with new languages). My personal Hello-World like program I tackle in most cases is something that runs another program. Lot of my personal projects are actually like that. You can start simple, to learn how to do associated tasks with it. There is a lot you can learn by diving into this (first) simple exercise.
This will help you understanding how to read directories, handle file names and paths correctly, read text files in example, how to spawn a process, handle possible errors and react to error codes, possibly read and process stdout of the program. Also handle commandline options, output stdout so it can be used with other programs easily. Write configuration file and so on.
An alternative thing you can try is, doing a simple grep like program. Or maybe a simple game that asks you a few questions and gives points. Or a note taking app.
I would say that if you purchase the game, then I do not consider it pirating to crack the Denuvo, just for playing the game (without abusing anything). Although I can understand pirating without buying, because you don't want to reward Denuvo and the company using it.
I see. Then in this case, its only fair to remove exploits. I always thought this game is offline single player only (never played the previous game, despite being in my library... oh boy the pile of shame). In this case I agree with you fully and there should be no reason for "review bomb".
Glad we understood our points of view. I honestly didn't know how to express myself better. And thank you as well staying calm without the typical forum toxicity. :-) I guess there is not much else to discuss about this particular point anymore, as we cleared any prior misunderstandings up.
Ultimately, the law is there, the execution is not.
It's not the copyright that is broken, but its enforcement. And just because people violate copyright does not mean it is not meant for you as well. Just with any other law. Just because someone breaks the law, does not mean it was not meant for you as well. The copyright is there for you too. That is the purpose.
Does swapping the Proton version still causes issues for Denuvo? I mean if changing the Proton version can lock me out of the game, I'm not sure if I want pay and reward both companies for that.
Thanks. Ah goddamnit, I was on that page already, but overlooked that as I did not recognize the name while quick scanning many pages. So after researching a bit more, I come to the conclusion that JeOS itself is a main distribution that is not based on another, right?
Pretty cool to see. Small factor devices to play Steam games... through emulation, who would have thought we come so far. Unfortunately this is based on Android and I do not want to use Android, unless it is modified and has nothing to do with Google anymore (such as /e/OS a modified Android).
Edit: Wait a second, this is replacing the Android operating system on the device?
I did not see this coming. I thought the "recent" new driver NTFS3 is the ultimate driver. You can bet phoronix will do performance comparisons once it is available in mainstream. Is performance the only reason or are there other technical reasons for creating this new driver?
As a European, would it be enough for me to use a distribution that is not from the US? So they would not have to implement age verification at operating system level. All the service (such as Flatpak in example) would still work without verification, right? Can I escape the US law as a European user?
Copyright is not dying, that is what Ai companies and those who do not care want you to believe. So you stop caring too. Copyright is an important law around the world. Just because there are loopholes and current difficulties and not being clear, does not mean its dead or dying. It just means (as always) needs some new adjustments and clarification to adapt to new technology.
