Zdjęcie konwertowane za pomocą OCR: Na dzisiejszej Radzie Krajowej Nowej Nadziei; pc całodniowej dyskusji,. poinformowałem Janusza Korwin-Mikkegc, ze nie będzie kandydował z list Konfederacji w kolejnych wyborach. Zdaję sobie sprawę z tego; ze niektórzy tego nie zrozumieją i nigdy mi tego nie wybaczą. Jest to dla mnie osobiście niezwykle ciuka decyzja. Janusz Korwin-Mikke uformował moje poglądy polityczne 20 lat temu. To dzięki niemu zaangażowałem się w politykę,. to dzięki niemu przywiązałem się do wolności. Podobnie jak tak wiele innych osób; jestem tu dzięki niemu. Kerwin-I’vlikke jest legendą, człowiekiem absolutnie wybitnym; który dla przyszłych pokoleń będzie ojcem idei wolnościowej w Polsce. Z olbrzymim bólem serca muszę jednak stwierdzić; ze obecnie jego działalność tej idei nie pomaga. Mówiłem mu wielokrotnie; ze swoimi wypowiedziami szkodzi juz przede wszystkim sobie. Ośmiesza swoją legendę, niszczy swój pomnik. Powinien być takim; jakim widzieliśmy gc na czerwcowej konwencji Konfederacji. Stary weteran, ojciec duchowy; latarnia morska; pokazująca kierunek i pilnująca; żebyśmy nie zeszli z właściwej drogi. Niestety wybrał inaczej. Wielokrotnie prosiłem go c opamiętanie. Niestety nic te nie dało. Wszyscy popełniamy błędy, czasem nawet bardzo duże. Nie myli się tylko ten, kto nic nie robi. Ale ważniejsze jest to, żeby z błędów wyciągać wnioski. Niestety wypowiedzi publiczne Korwin-Mikkego; jak i jego wypowiedzi na dzisiejszej Radzie Krajowej wprost wskazują, że nie zamierza wyciągnąć żadnych wniosków z ubiegłej kampanii. Co więcej; zamierza kontynuować swój obecny kurs z nawet większą determinacją. Piszę to z wielkim smutkiem. Bardzo mi zalezałe; zeby mające prędzej czy później nastąpić odejście na emer„turę nastąpiło w zupełnie inny sposób. Nie chciałbym, żeby ktoś uznał ze robimy z JKM kozła ofiarnego. Błędów było oczywiście dużo więcej. „V tym jednak przypadku nabrałem pewności; ze Kcrwin-Mikke nie tylko nie wyciągnie żadnych wniosków; co jeszcze będzie uważał, ze nam jego aktywność pomaga. Biorę za tę decyzję odpowiedzialność. Proszę c nieatakowanie w tej sprawie nikogo poza mną. Historia oceni, czy miałem rację. Decyzja jest bardzo ryzykowna i nie wiem jeszcze, jakie będzie miała konsekwencje. Jestem gotowy ponieść każdą odpowiedzialność. Wiem, jak wielu ludziom się te nie spodoba. Mnie tez się nie podoba. Nie chciałem tego. Niestety odpowiedzialność za projekt polityczny, za przyszłe wyniki; za sprawienie by wysiłek naszych kandydatów i sympatyków nie był marnowany, zmusza mnie do podjęcia tej ciężkiej decyzji. Stanąłem przed tragicznym wyborem. Dalsza obrona tego wielkiego człowieka prowadzi do niemożliwości bronienia zasad; w które on wierzy. Nasza idea jest ważniejsza od nas samych. Idee Korwina sa wazniejsze od Korwina. Jestem przekonany; ze cn zrobiłby na moim miejscu dokładnie tc samo co ja. I proszę; żeby mnie kiedyś potraktować tak samo. Nawet jezeli miałoby te stać się stosunkowo niedługo. Mam wielką nadzieję; ze Janusz Korwin-Mikke zajmie się tym, w czym jest najlepszy. Wykorzysta swoje świetne i ostre pióro do przekonywania kolejnych pokoleń dc naszych idei. Będzie niestrudzenie walczył o wolność,. własność i sprawiedliwość, będzie kształtował umysły i będzie symbolem trwałości przekonań i niezłomności W sytuacjach prywatnych JKM jest niezwykle czarującym, sympatycznym; ujmującym człowiekiem. Nigdy nie widziałem, zeby dc jakiejkolwiek kobiety odniósł się bez najwyzszego szacunku. Jego książki; artykuły; wywiady, nagrania będą dalej dla nas drogowskazem; jego idee będą naszymi ideami. Będzie mi go niezwykle brakować. Czuję się, jakbym tracił ojca. Bardzo załuję; ze to musiało tak się skoric fć.
Zakładam, że tytuł przeniósł się z rPolski, ale to było wałkowane w trakcie wyborów. Jeden z wielu sposobów, na który PiS manipulował boiskiem na swoją korzyść.
I’ve thought about this. I think that happened was because of timelines, they released a super early build, fuckin producers.
It’s not the worst thing for an early access game to be cracked, honestly. If the game is has more eyes, that’s great. I am curious about what is out now however.
I am also curious about if the cracked version can be updated with content once the game goes live. Like i have no idea when that is or if it has already happened.
Totally agree on the paycheck. However we need to stop acting like piracy is bad only. Buy the things you really enjoy and support the creator(s).
Back in the days a friend suggested i buy Skyrim and i was like: “Uuh not sure if i want to spend that kind of money on a 2yo game”. But since he was quite a fan, i pirated it. Soon after I bought the LE version and today it is still my most played game.
NGL: i also pirated many things of which i never bought the original version. But because of the bay i also bought some things i most likely wouldn’t have without.
I was vaguely interested in Dark Souls for years, but every time I tried, I bounced right off it. I went through a cycle where every year or two, I would pirate one of the souls games, try it out, give up on it after an hour or so, and do it all over again the next time I was sufficiently compelled to give the series another shot. This happened until several years ago when I tried Dark Souls II, and for some reason it finally clicked. I played my pirated copy of Dark Souls II for about 10 hours, before a random crash corrupted my save file.
After that happened, I immediately bought the game on Steam and proceeded to play it for the next month and a half, until I eventually beat it. I've since purchased every souls game plus Elden Ring on Steam, and recently imported a copy of Bloodborne GOTY edition after spending $700 on an exploitable PS5, just so I could play it at 60FPS. None of these legitimate purchases would have ever happened if I hadn't been able to repeatedly pirate Dark Souls for about five years.
I don’t think piracy is bad lol i do think mega corporate publishers have bad practices for sure. Like cool, the one i worked for is publicly traded. Awesome. Every action is greed motivated. I hate that.
Every time i loose hope in games i just play undertale and ignore the world. >.>
Remember that time a random player DRAMATICALLY decreased load times for GTA online after finding bad code that preloaded TONS of game assets? After like, a decade?
Are you saying the INSANE GTA Online load time is fixed now?
Back in the old day, I literally just throw my hands up and said “I can’t wait for this shit anymore, I don’t have all day” then rage quit and delete the game.
Rockstar paid the guy like 50K or something for discovering it, and then it was apparently implemented into GTA online. Too bad I quit playing that time black hole years ago.
I watched a YT video about this and they said the guy was paid 10K (way too low imo), a Google search shows different numbers everywhere so it’s hard to confirm. But at least the guy got paid, for sure.
As far as I’m understanding it, the game was using a single threading process to load every single items in the game one by one (over 10 thousands in total), then checking again for duplicate.
I love the implication here, that they don’t have the proper source (or skills left in the company) such that they can remove the DRM which doesn’t play nice themselves so they rely on a cracked copy of the game instead. Been quite a bit of news lately about how game companies have failed to keep the original source code for their games. Diablo 2, the Transformers games etc and those from active companies, there’s bound to be 1000s of games where the source is lost due to publishers closing down studios.
I still have the source code for the simple stuff I developed over 12 years ago, but these organisations don’t think it’s important to hang on to source code and assets for something they plan to make money from?
Really telling about the attitudes towards software outside of the FOSS space and datahoarder communities, and more importantly how little the management/publishers actually care about the product.
Although to counter that, I’m aware of at least one situation where the opposite has happened. One of my simulation games for example is really buggy and isn’t able to receive more updates because the studio behind it voluntarily disbanded, leaving the publisher without access to the source code (I believe the publisher Aerosoft has tried to get a copy of the source to provide further game fixes, but the individuals behind the disbanded studio could not come to an agreement on this)
I’ve had teams not bother to keep proper history when moving from subversion to git and I’ve also had a DevOps team entirely wipe the history of a new project just because cloning took a long time (and refused to attempt shallow cloning).
So the idea that a company just lets their code “rot” to the point of not even having it anymore because it’s just some legacy thing from over a decade ago is totally unsurprising to me.
I don't know about Diablo 2, but Blizzard is so shady and messed up nowadays that I wouldn't be surprised that they "lost the source code" to prevent modders being able to port games, etc.
As for transformers, it was never lost (PCGamer, if you don't like Xfire). Hasbro claimed they wanted to provide access to legacy games, but completely made up that the source was lost. Now that we know that the source is still available... well, Hasbro clearly hasn't tried to rerelease those games.
(note: I know this is the same company, Activision Blizzard in both cases. For anyone reading who doesn't know, they were not the same company for the release of Diablo II, and a good amount of time afterwards.)
I’d say they probably still have the source. It looks like they did the same thing for Manhunt and Max Payne, but then pulled older, pre-SecuROM exes from their archives when they got busted.
Even if they have the source, they may not have all the build tools anymore.
Or they have the build tools but the wizard that set up the build system back in the day no longer works there.
Or they have the build system archived and documented but it doesn’t run because some license expired, and the tool vender doesn’t sell that version anymore.
In the near future, there will be another possibility - SaaS cloud tools that are impossible to preserve so they are forever lost.
Very true, and even if they could replace/remove libraries and dependencies that muck up the build process there are no guarantees that it’ll play the same. So many games rely on strange quirks to function the way they do that would be nigh impossible to replicate purposely.
Sometimes there is a trick that allows to play offline (I guess to bypass tags and restrictions), things like adding a line of text to a file, always a hassle and poorly documented.
Btw, I feel like telling that I deleted my rockstar account quite a while ago, they asked and re-asked nonsense, waiting from weeks to over a month between email and email, and the worst thing is that sometimes they were in chinese. It took me more than half a year to delete that crap.

Pirating the game is a lot easier. The people getting punished are the ones who give Rockstar their money
I’m already angry enough that they don’t let me spawn certain vehicles in singleplayer but this is too much. Time to get a cracked version and uninstall that Rockstar Launcher crap.
The initial source (or at least the one linked to in the reddit post) is the vastly inferior microblogging version of xvideos though, so skipping reddit would have been even worse 🤷
I technically have an account, but I haven’t logged into it since a month or so after Musk started destroying it.
The final straw was getting banned for a full week for “hate speech” just for pointing out that Bill Burr probably wouldn’t want to participate in a Tucker Carlson “special report” about how “humor isn’t allowed anymore”, nor give permission for clips of him to be included in a promo for it 🤦
What a fucking nostalgia bomb. Haven’t been a part of the scene for a very long time, so seeing RAZOR 1911 in the hex triggered a flashback. They were huge back when I was running a “warez” BBS as a kid in the 90s.
When you view or edit a text (.txt) file in a text editor like Notepad, you’re most often opening a file in ASCII encoding that uses the ASCII binary values for common letters, numbers and punctuation. The only values allowed in that kind of file are lowercase letters, uppercase letters, numbers and punctuation.
You can also view or edit binary files, like executables (.exe), but you typically need a hex editor. If you tried to open a binary file in a plain text editor it wouldn’t know how to handle all the binary values that are not part of the standard ASCII set of letters, numbers and punctuation.
Hex editors show the data in hexadecimal format. They convert the binary data to numbers from 0 to 15 where the numbers 10 to 15 are replaced by the letters A to F. Often to make it clear people are talking about the hex number they add “0x” in front of the number. So, 0 becomes 0x0, 9 becomes 0x9, 15 becomes 0xF, 16 becomes 0x10, and 255 becomes 0xFF. This is an efficient way for people to work with binary data because 16 is 2^4^ or 222*2.
Within binary files, there will still be a lot of sections that are in ASCII. For example, any error messages that have to be printed out for the user to see, like “this program cannot be operated in DOS mode”.
Razor 1911 is an infamous cracker group that has been around for decades. They often “sign” the programs they crack by putting “Razor 1911” inside the files, in a way where you can see it if you open it with a hex editor, but so it doesn’t affect the program.
So, what this is suggesting is that a program that Rockstar has released on Steam is not something they built themselves, but they’re actually distributing a cracked version that was released by Razor 1911.
