When PES came out and it seemed to do better that FIFA I looked it up and I was amazed to find out it was from the same publisher as the football game I loved in the early 2000 and nobody else played (ISS Pro)

Yes, you can run Linux in a VM.
But also: you should be able to access your Windows partition from Linux, as it supports NTFS and FAT filesystems, and view the files there.
What I do is I have one partition with Windows, one with Linux, and a third one (with an NTFS file system) for the files I need to access from both.

If you like puzzles, horror and all things weird, definitely try some of the games by Rusty Lake.
The entire Cube Escape series is available for free (a sort of excape the room puzzle).
As a former picky eater, lots of foods. Most notably sushi (used to dislike all fish), and bell peppers that moved from disgusting to delicious.
Lots of music. As most kids do (or used to before streaming was a thing) I was locked in a limited set of genres, but I’ve come to appreciate songs I’d have never considered back then.
First, don’t listen to his opinions on anything that isn’t about comouters and software. He doesn’t have a good track record there.
Do pay attention to his takes on technology and freedom, there’s a lot of food for though there.
I was at one of his talks recently, and he’s definitely and eccentric fellow. When it comes to free software he’s a die hard extremist, and I have a feeling he knows and to a certain extent he does that on purpose. Case in point, he mentioned how he refused hearing aids and would similarly refuse a pacemaker as there are none running on free software.
As such, that’s how I take his ideas about free software: a good philosophy taken to the extreme to showcase what’d be possible if we went all in on that, and the dangers of not doing it. Definitely not something that can work for everyone, or a realistic pathway to a world of free software.
I do think, however, that someone like him is fundamental to advance the cause of free software, even if no one takes him literally and emulates his way of life.
I’m not gonna refuse a life saving treatment or device because it runs on propriety software, but I am willing to sacrifice some convenience to use a free software alternative when available.
What happened? I’ve never heard of it
I’ve washed shoes in the washing machine a few times, using the setting for delicate clothes. So far no damage to be seen and they come out clean.
Probably not something that should be done every other day, but once in a while seems fine.
I heard that person actively contributed for something like 2 years, providing actually useful contributions, to gain the level of trust needed to plant that backdoor. Feels a bit too much to chalk it up to boredom.
As for the second part, that’s an interesting question. Are there lots of backdoors and we just happened to notice this one, or are backdoors very rare exactly because we’d have found them out soon like in this case?
Windows licenses AFAIK are already rarely bought on their own. The vast majority of users get one by having it bundled to a new device they purchase.
Jamendo is definitely still around, and there has always been plenty of music made as a score there
Ka is a wheel after all
I loved that one too, can’t wait for the right time to read it again
I was thinking about the technical details and didn’t stop to consider the implications, nice answer.
Also unexpected lost in space reference.
I don’t know how much the windows installer lets you choose regarding partitions, but assuming you can and given my probably dated knowledge still applies:
You’ll have to install windows to it’s partition and then force a boot into Linux from the BIOS to reinstall grub, and then you’ll be able to choose your starting system.
It’s not what you’re looking for, but I think in this context Jamendo deserves a mention.
I found lots of great songs and artists there that I listen to daily.
Terminator is the one I’ve been using for a while
I enjoyed the films more than the books. The books after the first feel like the author had a good idea, but didn’t know what to do with it. The films tidy it up nicely
Agreed, I watched 1 or maybe 2, lost all interest in more of that nonsense
Yeah I knew it as Winning Eleven 4. I got it as a pirated copy, in Japanese, and played the shit out of it.
