Interestingly, that site is owned by ESPN and at some point in time it was archived by ABC. Why it was put to use for this is strange.

Yes. But you can best believe they will find something else to fire you for. If you have nothing, then it's an easy case win for you.

Very easy for a majority of people.

As an alternative, for those who want to dive in or have more control: Self host PiHole or AdGuard Home DNS. Either use WireGuard VPN and set the DNS manually, or setup a DoT/DoH service. Either way works.

Most IT positions are salary so this makes sense and is reasonable for critical systems. If you're not salary, yikes.

Test Drive Unlimited 2 in particular is one I use on occasion. https://www.tduworld.com/

The Crew server side is being reverse engineered so you can eventually play it in the future.

I was under the impression that Tahoe translates to "big water" which is funny.

But "Tar pit Tar pit", "Way Way" and "Desert Desert" are indeed infuriating.

Adobe used to house all the licensing mechanisms in a single file named amtlib.dll. The people who cracked it just nulled out the function. And since it was the same for every piece of software, just repeat the null process for each one. Bam, the entire suite for free.

When Adobe switched from CS to CC subscription, it was cracked in 24 hours. Largely because they didn't change much.

Adobe then axed the crippling DLL file and baked the mechanism right into the executable. A patcher tool was released that could crack each one. The upside is you could install and keep them updated from the CC Desktop and just run the patcher each time. Sometimes you had to wait for an update to the patcher. So before you clicked "update" you had to double check to make sure it worked.

To stop the free trial abuse (which is how people installed anyway) Adobe started requiring billing information during setup before you even get to downloads.

Later on, Adobe prevented users from updating apps if there wasn't an active subscription.

The patcher eventually stopped working because it was abandoned (this around 2019 when I gave up using it because Resolve and Affinity were more affordable and met my needs.) Months later someone else picked up the patcher development. There's also pre-cracked versions you can download and install.

I've not touched Adobe since and find Resolve to be significantly more stable and at $300, much more affordable. The Affinity Photo and Designer apps are great and affordable too at $170 for the bundle.

Definitely see a doctor first. While a CPAP machine can do wonders, it really only works for those who stop breathing. If you don't stop breathing, it can actually do more harm to your sleep.

An out of the box OS should include a browser. Microsoft takes a ham-fisted approach, however, Apple makes it entirely possible to uninstall Safari. You do have to jump through the hoop of disabling System Integrity Protection to remove it, but it's simple as trashing the app and deleting the data. I speak from experience. Very easy to do.

GitHub is a great place for this. They have an Issues and Discussions tab for repos. Zero reason to use Discord if you use GitHub already for your project.

Tumblr.

While it's certainly not as evil as it's others, it was gutted when it was bought by Yahoo. It changed hands to Verizon and then Automattic. It was a tragic fall from grace.
