Man, this was almost the answer! I didn’t even think of a VM. I’m on a Mac though, so I’d need to get a Windows VM. At that point, it descends into loony die on a hill territory (running pirated Windows software in a Mac VM to avoid a subscription) and I have to just pay them :D

Yeah, so it’s subscription software. If you don’t pay yearly, you can’t use it. You need to sign in to activate, just like Adobe Cloud.

I’m not running a business. I’m just a guy who takes photos.

Without answering every post individually, people asked why I don’t just switch. If you process digital photos, the edits get saved, so you can change them. It’s like a digital darkroom. I’d lose all that and be left with the unprocessed photos. Hundreds of hours. And, there’s a lot of knowledge and study that went into learning how to do it, so if I switch, I’m starting over with a new app. There are open source ones, but they’re honestly pretty bad. I tried them all.

The crack blocks the activation server in my hosts file and then patches the app to think it’s activated. You can’t update it then, but I don’t need to.

My larger question is if that type of crack is just… a risky thing to do from a system security perspective.

Like… this is a piracy forum. That’s why I’m asking here :)

I mean. If you’re in porn, that might get you an interview.

I have a friend who went with this after reading your post. Hypothetically. He says it was a bit more than he wanted to spend, but was also better than what he had.

How’s the tablet experience? This is probably in my future.

Thanks. I found a couple of reseller places. Trying a couple out.

I wish I had friends on the inside for sexy private trackers with shit like that.

I thought TiviMate was an app?

Far better than Reddit. These are our heroes. I can scroll through once a day and get at least three quality entries with which to blast my friend chats in the face.

It’s even better if you change the head. Gotta keep it fresh.

LOL I’m leaving that, because it’s even funnier that way.

You’re doing God’s work. You truly can’t comprehend how often this will be deployed in a 6 GB friend Signal chat that dates back several presidential administrations.

Nothing will ever be the same.
