I don't see many people ever really talking about them at all outside of fans, but Krosmaga and One More Gate from Ankama.

Krosmaga is a deck builder autochess like game (with something like 9 or 10 different classes/dieties with different abilities to build around, alongside a bunch of non-specific cards any class could use in their deck). Place summons/spells to protect your Dofus (dragon eggs, to simplify what they are) and destroy theirs. Matchmaking is either play against computer, who randomly selects class and gets default deck, or just flatout random player. Don't think there's any selective matchmaking, sadly.

One More Gate is a short enough roguelite game where you accidentally destroy a portal and have to fix it by beating bosses in new areas, usually after multiple failed runs. Has meta progression, which I personally am not the biggest fan of.

Energetic music in general does it for me.

Songs like Old Hat (Harvey Danger), Brother John (Blues Traveler), 8:02PM (For Squirrels), etcetera.

Though songs I associate with warmer times also tend to work for me.

Don't know if anyone else is like that, so I don't know how helpful this is.

The closest I want to AI music is ENUNUNU or Diffsinger, which still require a human(s) to actually put in effort for a good quality song.

But they don't care because there's less profit in letting humans be creative.

Come on guys, this was clearly the work of the Demtards hacking his AI and making it call him names. We all know his superior intellect will totally save the world and make it a better place, you just gotta let him go completely unchecked to do it.

Don't know what service you go through or where, buty parents have had the unfortunate pleasure of recording some things (don't remember what because I don't pay attention to the TV often anymore of I can help it) through Xfinity and have fast forwarding through the small commercial breaks feature disabled.

I don't watch it, but I definitely second hand consume it because my parents still watch cable. I don't really have a choice either since most every night I'm helping cook dinner while my dad watches his nightly reruns of MASH and Emergency (unless it's something else for a change). The ads aren't extremely unbearable because they're aimed at middle-aged to elderly people like my dad, but I don't care for them.

Coming out of left field, I'll have to go with the number 22. Absolutely hate that number to death. Used to show up all the time when I was growing up, so I've learned to be a 22 hater. I'll go to war with that number and nuke it to death before admitting it's a good number.

I don't use it for windows because notepad++ exists, but I actually like vim because it's 100% distraction free (none of the extra formating settings and such to distract me). Same reason I like nano.

Or for the masochistic windows user in your life:

I can see these apps being good for traveling, in case of a stolen phone, but for protests I've almost always heard that you should bring a burner phone.

I imagine that would be one hell of a story to tell Bubba when they decide to lock you away for whatever false charges they can pin on you.

I personally view hardware as the devil, so we're kinda opposites in that regard.

 

Mostly asking because I've never used these before due to never needing to. That, and I have a few old disc based PC games that I'd love to be able to straight up boot without the game disc. These are games I could just pirate, but I figure I already own them in disc, so I'd rather see if there are any reputable places with no-disc patches. The places I've looked in the megathread don't have what I'm looking for.

Closest they have is either a link to the game on another platform in the case of My Abandonware due to it being sold, or a link to just straight up pirate the full thing in the case of Magipack Games. I've also done some digging on the Internet Archive but have yet to yield results (probably because I suck at finding things there). Still gonna keep looking there, but any helpful info would be much appreciated.

I don't think I can share the game names, even in DM, due to the rules here, so site mainpages are my best shot.

 

Got a copy of Borderlands (EU iso) from the r/ROMS megathread and found out there is securom verification (which I have absolutely no experience with) as part of the installation process.

Closest I have found to a solution to bypass so far after some brief searching was one "Generic Securom 7/8 by Virusek" off of the "LOSTFILESARCHIVE" github page, which leads to a 404 page (even on the wayback machine).

Are there any programs or patches you would recommend to bypass this god awful drm?
