- Comment on 007 First Light has Denuvo Anti-Tamper DRM removed 3 days ago:
Indeed. It’s why you often hear about games removing Denuvo. They’re not doing it in response to player complaints, they’re doing it because they don’t want the ongoing cost and also sales have peaked and are dropping off, reducing the need to mitigate piracy (since those who were going to buy will have done so already).

It’s not Denuvo, it’s the developer/publisher.
They pay a monthly fee ~$25,000 and $0.50 per game activation.
Developers/publishers only use Denuvo briefly to avoid day 1 piracy being possible (even though I hear it now is) and they drop it after a few months given the crazy cost of Denuvo.

Primus sucks! Can’t wait to see them live later this year.

Or a joke?
- Comment on What are your self–hosted alternatives for inter device communication? 1 month ago:
This is based on Snapdrop. If the current developer hasn’t gone crazy with the fork, you can read the entire source code over a cup of coffee. The server used to just handle discovery/handshake of devices on the same network, with file transfer peer to peer using local addresses.
Edit: Looks like they’ve added transfer over WAN not just local. Privacy discussion here.

I miss the classic Ctrl placement. I still remap Caps Lock to Ctrl to this day.

CVEs don’t get issued “resolved” statuses… They are either reserved, published, or rejected (technically NVD have a few extra for published). That’s just junk data in that tool you’re using. Use authoritative sources like cve.org or nvd.nist.gov.
You can see the CPEs on NVD and they’re old versions of Plex.

You’re aware those CVEs are only relevant for ancient versions of Plex and were fixed long ago?

You’re going to need to back up your claim otherwise you might as well be lying as there’s no CVE like this I can find nor any public disclosure.
Plex have a bug bounty program and a responsive security team too.
Post your security report.
