I am shocked. Shocked!

Windows bad, remember?

Do you not understand what the word arbitrary means?…

Kelvin is just our word for it, but that is the point of “no heat”. It isn’t arbitrary, there is no “negative kelvin” just like you cannot make something colder than absolute zero.

So if you take the difference between “coldest possible temp” and “average summer temp”, then slice it in half, you’re getting temperatures that would kill most life on earth.

Okay?.. like, I get the point. But you’re telling me Linux does literally nothing you don’t want out of the box? It’s like saying “Run sudo rm -rf / —no-preserve-root and see what happens on Linux.”

Haha, yeah I didn’t necessarily mean for CAD work, though I suppose you could get a mouse and keyboard to make it more tolerable.

You can RDP in with a toaster these days.

Okay, maybe not a toaster. But you can use any old piece of junk you have lying around. Even a phone.

To play devils advocate, which I seem to do a lot lately I admit, you were still just purchasing a license then as well. The process of revocation would be so convoluted as to be all but impossible, but you were never actually purchasing permanent and irrevocable access to the game.

And if you want to get back to that, just buy your games from GOG.

Or just pirate the games you purchase, and it won’t matter if your Steam account is banned or deleted. Which is honestly often the better option these days, because it has the bullshit DRM ripped out of it.

Pretty sure that was a joke >.>

Absolutely, in fact I’d be willing to bet vaultwarden does just that. That’s a good point.

I don’t understand it tbh. Password managers and email are the main things I avoid self hosting. Email because it’s just too easy to fuck something up and never realize you’re not actually properly sending/receiving email. And password managers because if I lose access to it, I’m kinda royally fucked. And the password managers I use keeps a local copy of your database that gets periodically updated, so even without internet I do still have access.

You’ve moved the goalpost from “odds of happening” to “odds of injury or death”.

I’m sure you’ll move it to “physical injury” when it’s pointed out that a single school shooting has major and long lasting effects on children’s mental health, even if they themselves never even see the shooter.

To play devils advocate, semi-similar is true on Steam for the most part. Even though the original was pulled by Sony, you can still download and play it if you previously purchased it.

I do have an expansive offline library though, I admit. Though I’d also say that a company removing access to something you paid for is the most moral reason there is to pirate that something.

If Sony pulls it, they pull it. GOG wouldn’t have any options, it’s not theirs to sell, they are just a storefront.

Except it’s cross posts, which isn’t even a repeat, it’s just the same content. They just got their panties in a twist because the world didn’t work the way they wanted it to for 3 whole minutes.

There are already hardware solutions that can bypass those. Utilize video output from a PC, interrupt user input to react, add in humanesque delay. There’s no reason cheat software has to be as blatant as Minecraft auto fight cheats.

Can they be caught? Sure. Human pushes the limits too far, manual checks to see if you react like a human, etc. but you’re talking about a 100% effective anticheat, and I’m telling you there is no such thing.

It’s like claiming you can make an internet connected device that is “unhackable”.

IconTwitter seems to fit the naming convention better.

You’re talking about running everything other than graphics rendering (not graphics compute mind) and UI input server side, including physics?

Apart from the fact that this would be inherently expensive as you mentioned, it would also require extremely fast internet with extremely low ping or jitter.

It would also not prevent aim botting, bots in general, or input related exploits like macros and “turbo mode”.

I’ll just reiterate what they said. There is no such thing as a perfect anticheat. It is impossible.

Yes, the one you host will continue to work assuming it doesn’t have an IP that is easily tied to a Datacenter.

I’ve not run into this issue and use Firefox exclusively with ublock origin
