I never thought I'd say this but, I hope Google loses their appeal on the third party store..

There is also The Crew, Forza Motorsport, Forza Horizon as well as Gran Turismo to mention a few more that I have played. Plus a whole slew of hardcore F1 titles, Nascar titles and the Trackmania series.

There might be something in there that catches your attention. Could just be a case of these not surfacing in your algorithm to get noticed.

This new FPS is so good, it's almost unfair that it's free: A '1v1 me bro' simulator with 70 maps and no microtransactions that feels like the sickest Counter-Strike: Source mod of 2007 in c/games@sh.itjust.works

I remember learning the whole torrenting process after years of irc, newsgroups and p2p clients. It took a bit of time but, man, was I passionate about dumping everything I could on to SuprNova way back.

Anymore, I only package and share on private trackers, its just too much of a risk to seed out to public ones. And being completely honest, the majority of my dl's are coming from newsgroups again. It's just a simpler process and I don't feel the leech anxiety.

That said, I also keep an eye out for requests and try to fill bounties whenever I can.

Growing up we had 4 rules for tripping

You always need another cigarette
That didn't happen
Cars are real
You probably shouldn't

Any questions, refer to rule 1 and start the process over again. My man here needed #4.

Trip responsibly kids.

This is a huge hit to desktop ownership of the OS. Microsoft has officially made zero-trust a reality by doing this.

I expect there will be even more news at Ignite. Bear in mind 11 has been requiring a MS account for years and 10 is in it's final months. Pushing users to cloud only Windows allows them (and their corporate customers) complete control of the ecosystem.
