He refunded the game. He already followed the Vivo guide and quit.
You're making no sense. He still has the game (There's a mouse icon next to his username).

He can't refund the game anymore lol. Oh well, Don't know how many hours he have and I just forgotten this post.

Pretty much the Vivo guide is just a pyramid scheme to spam you with cache that steals your info and sells it to Google.

I don't know what you have against VNV but I don't think that's funny.

So, just like Steam then?

3.4 Your Use of the Steam Client and Websites
We collect a variety of information through your general interaction with the websites, Content and Services offered by Steam. Personal Data we collect may include, but is not limited to, browser and device information, data collected through automated electronic interactions and application usage data.

5.1 Valve and its subsidiaries may share your Personal Data with each other and use it to the degree necessary to achieve the purposes listed in section 2 above. In the event of a reorganization, sale or merger we may transfer Personal Data to the relevant third party subject to applicable laws.

5.2 We may also share your Personal Data with our third party service providers that provide customer support services in connection with goods, Content and Services distributed via Steam.

And yet here you are recommending people use Steam guides. Tsk, tsk.

Dimnie specializes in stealth, disguising its HTTP requests to the command and control infrastructure in a GET request to a defunct Google service called Google PageRank. Levene said an IP address was found in a DNS lookup request preceding the GET request that was the real destination IP for the follow-up HTTP request.

Vivo I mean Viva is owned by github known to have unsecure websites that steals data and sells it to Google.

Viva is not owned by Github, it's hosted there. Just like Steam is hosted on Amazon servers.

Github is owned by Microsoft, just like New Vegas is.

Please don't lie. You clearly can see it through the website it has "Github" in it. I have to clean my browser twice just to get rid of the cache they are trying to sell to Google so I don't get ads from a third party website that sells me games that are discounted. Bruh, idc if that Starbound is 1$ it's a different website. (If my discord account got hacked again I swear)

Sketchy that Microsoft doesn't do anything about the malicious website because all they care are the softwares than the website itself.

Why doesn't Microsoft address these issue? It's been 4 years
Hackers like GitHub for several reasons.
  • Source code. The software stored in GitHub is valuable intellectual property. ...
  • Attack vectors. The source code might provide hackers with insights into how to attack software running in production. ...
  • Login credentials. ...
  • Unauthorized access. ...
  • Insider threats.


    Has GitHub ever been hacked?
    An unknown attacker breached GitHub to download data from scores of private code repositories including that of npm — the world's largest software registry with 75 billion downloads a month — the company has confirmed in a hugely troubling cybersecurity incident. Apr 19, 2022

Owned != hosted. Steam is owned by Valve, but all the community content links say "akamai" in the URL. Almost like the media content is hosted by a different company than Valve...weird. Or maybe Illuminati: Confirmed, amirite?

As to MS owning both Github[www.google.com] and Zenimax/Bethesda/Obsidian[www.google.com] (and therefore New Vegas) - as you are so fond of saying, use the search function.

Honey, https://bethesda.net/en/article/1iLtcvwY6Nb1GeKADyDUEX/why-microsoft-is-the-perfect-fit

Do you actually think Microsoft would want Bethesda because they want to fix FNV?

Fallout: New Vegas patch 1.4.0.525 - current, released on July 7, 2011. Fixes numerous issues and adds compatibility for Old World Blues.

Pretty much Bethesda sold themselves to Microsoft after they failed with 76.

So...less bad than Steam?

Per Steam themselves:

We see around 77,000 accounts hijacked and pillaged each month.

https://www.lastbreach.com/blog/steam-data-leak-recap

https://www.secure128.com/support-resources/articles/gaming-service-valve-falls-victim-to-massive-data-breach

https://threatpost.com/gamers-zero-day-steam-client-affects-windows/147225/

And everyone's favorite Steam vulnerability that Valve didn't fix for a decade...

https://www.newsweek.com/valve-steam-security-bug-exploit-vulnerability-955813

So...not any different than Steam, whose platform you are happy to use and whose guides you recommend?

While FO76 is not a fan favorite, it's making money hand-over-fist. It's one of the reasons Microsoft bought the company. It was proof of concept for Bethesda doing live service games.

As to MS improving older games - they did finally patch the Microsoft-related issue in FO3, and the Windows Store version of FONV is a new version of the executable, so they've done *something*.

I love it when Corona Varus and Salamader get at it. So much entertainment.
Corona Varus Sep 7, 2022 @ 5:59pm 
Because people keeps abusing the system to comment on someone's screenshot and attacks them with either hate speech or malicious websites and they're not stepping in that's why they got scared and put the blame on themselves and panicked, they focus more on improving than safety which they don't see. They didn't got a virus, they got provoked and shocked by spammers sending link which no one ever reported them and realizing how gullible people are to giving them their account and took action. They did not got a data breach.

Except for the data breaches I linked :lol:

So basically what you're saying is...don't use Steam either. Hell, probably shouldn't use the internet at all in [current year].

I wholly endorse your commitment to abandon both the platform and the medium.

Tally ho!

Whatever it is Vivo/Viva has too much headache and sometimes their secure site goes down.

Kind of like Steam goes down for parts of the day on every Tuesday.

Almost like server maintenance is a thing that happens on professional platforms....

Weird. Just plain weird.
