Get a rice cooker with a steam tray. Make a cup of rice, with frozen veggies in the tray. Spice the rice if you want (a little cumin with pepper slices makes excellent fajitas).
When I was in college I put rice in everything because it disgusted my flatmates. I could cook a meal and repel mooches at the same time.
Do NOT run a crack or patch of any kind. They may pass a Malwarebytes scan, or test clean on virustotal, but one I just ran across tried downloading a bunch of data when I ran it in a VM. Don’t risk it, I’ve been burned in the past. And now with online banking, Paypal, Venmo, cryptocurrency, it’s just not worth it.
You might try installing the software in a VM, running the patch in the VM, and then moving the software over to your primary, but I would still be worried about that.
The other people here say you’ll probably be fine, but you need to ask yourself if it’s worth giving up any of your passwords to an attacker. At best you’re looking at a completely benign patch, and a working installation of the software. At worst…it can be pretty bad.
Wait for a keygen, or go without the software. Or, and I do this a lot lately, look around for a free, open source equivalent.
A city near where I lived had an underground house that looked like this. It was the “house of the future” because of reasons I don’t remember. I passed by it a few years ago, and it looked empty, overgrown and run down.
There’s no such thing as a 100% efficient “engine”. But in this case, since the waste heat is put to use (heating the house), OP thinks there’s a loophole.
But, house would also need to be soundproof. Any noise leaking to the outside is lost energy.
Years ago Pirate Bay made a big deal about starting a 3D model repository, but it really didn’t catch on. Too many places to get free models already. Granted there are some places you can buy really high detail models from movies and games (is gambody still around? Will I get a strike for mentioning gambody like I did on reddit?).
If you really want to torrent 3D models, I’ll tell you what I tell everybody. qBittorrent has a very nice search function that, once set up properly, will hit a lot of public trackers straight from the interface. If you have a specific model in mind, give that a shot. Or just search for “3d model” or “STL” or whatever, and you’ll get hits.
Seconding SmartTube on android TV. No ads, can automatically skip all sorts of content in videos (spoken ads, self-promotion, introduction segments, etc. etc. etc.) I dread the day it stops working.
