Only roms and syncthing to sync saves. I love syncthing.

One of my favorite past times is reading people freaking out about the rising costs, while I sit completely unaffected thanks to the high seas.

It's their lemmy instance that's been having issues since they made the new one after losing the ml domain.

They don't make threads often on reddit so maybe a bot that crossposts here would be good to have, since if they do it's probably something important.

I did that the first few times I downloaded Dolby vision after I found it wasn't being outputted correctly, but copying over the gigs of content to a usb stick to play on stick felt tedious so just went with regular hdr uploads after that.

Yeah it's an open source option for MacOS that is based on mpv.

What does infuse offer over IINA? Infuse seems pricey and never understood what it offers over alternatives aside from some streaming functions?

It has sponsorblock too. This is the simplest solution.

IPO goals made it seem piracy days on reddit were numbered, so those with foresight were itching for a new place off reddit and leapt at the opportunity to find a new place.

Some people just don't want to admit they pirate, but we know they do 😉

Threat model is just trying to lower the chances of infecting the main drive even if stuff like games or software are from a "trusted source".

Aside from getting an enitely separate system dedicated to just running pirated games which is expensive to do.

Unmounted drives in case of dual booting still leading to infections is what made me wonder about installing an OS entirely on the external SSD and physically unplugging other drives. Of course, as you said bios is still a risk. But, more just trying to lessen chances from trusted game sources by not installing right away from release to see if anything happens to other people the first couple of weeks. And just wishing to not intermingle the two environments.

Just didn't seem like a good idea to run pirated software of games on your primary system even if the stuff is from a "trusted" source.

Which was why I was wondering what steps people take to play games for those that try to lower the risks.
