I'm out of the loop, what's the context for all this?
Empress is pretty much the only person who cracks Denuvo DRM - the only other person who publicly releases cracks only does it for Football Manager games. However, Empress is just a little unhinged, as this post demonstrates.
There was an r/HobbyDrama reddit post that covers much of the history: https://www.reddit.com/r/HobbyDrama/comments/rowk83/digital_piracy_the_rise_of_empress_how_one_woman/
When are we going to get a Hobbydrama community on Lemmy?
Be the change you want to see in the world
@Corkyskog @TWeaK make one yourself on here. It's easy
I liked the idea of hobby drama, but most of the posts were too long for me to want to get through. I'd end up leaving the tab open for weeks and then just closing them.
BORU on the other hand became something of an addiction.
What is BORU?
r/BestofRedditorUpdates. They tie together posts from other subreddits where the user came back some time later and posted an update.
I came to the comments to see if there really could be a person this deranged, and looks like she has a long history of this shit. What the fuck. Thanks for posting that link.
Holy shit, she's even crazier than I thought, yikes
