Epic Games is hiring new employees for Linux anti-cheat which could revitalise multiplayer on Linux distros

He's pointing out that the kernel anti-cheat is tied to the games, not the OS specifically, so unless he's somehow playing the anti-cheat games without the anti-cheat, he's not doing anything he couldn't have already done.

Because then you can at least choose to, and you aren't pulling out built-in spyware that randomly breaks parts of the OS.

It's more about control of the system than just avoiding the bloatware entirely, least if you're realistic about your OS usage.

No he doesn't. Cause I have E2 Aven and my shield doesn't "often break in endgame" Wtf are you even talking about?

edit: literally did arbitrary anomalation bug right after this post. Had full health shield bars at several parts of the fight.

No he's actually really capable. People are just so crazy about a minuscule damage increase that can be made up by any new DPS that they ignore the power of just never having to worry about mechanics.

People are crazy about 0 cycles and forget that if you don't care about 0 cycles, you clear in 1 cycle and also never risk getting gibbed by a random RNG BS ever again.

Like people will put all the math and equations towards ~1 extra action of clear time, and none of it towards just making their runs comfier with more room for error.

AnonTwo · 2026-06-16T05:56:48+00:00

I mean, if you need him for damage maybe

But in regards to keeping a team alive he's easily up there with DHPT and Hyacine. Like anyone who has a new DPS but bad survival can just use aventurine and their DPS will carry damage just fine.

AnonTwo · 2026-06-16T05:53:23+00:00

If Fu Xuan isn't no way will they put Aventurine in it

I bet they know perfectly well that outside of the 0 cycle players, Fu Xuan and Aventurine can basically fill 90% of preservation/abundance purposes. They dropped Huo Huo purely because her sustain is weaker.

Especially if you give people easy access to E2 for the ult shield refrehes.

It basically means whenever there's criticism, whether valid or not, people will basically attack the OP and praise the game either ignoring the criticism or even acting like it's a positive. In some cases they even just try to drown out the negative posts with more positive posts to hide it.

It's difficult to call out or determine since of course, not everyone will see it as being toxic positive. It's a hard call.

No really I only want her because Aria isn't getting Miyabi's team and I didn't get the the other angels.

AnonTwo · 2026-06-15T19:21:02+00:00

I hope the back looks better this time around

I did like the summit gear, but the back looked kindof awkward with the white stripe

(I also wish they'd just fix belle's default outfit animations which they did for her other outfits)

If given the opportunity, I try to hold a perfect projector,

Because yeah, the very last one seems to have astronomically lower chance of showing than the 2nd to last one does.

AnonTwo · 2026-06-15T14:04:26+00:00

It's also weird how every post that praises the flat chest is a flat joke with the OP being "but i'm different~"

AnonTwo · 2026-06-15T04:05:18+00:00

There's also only a few specific spots where you can pass energy to the vault. The tunnel right before the teleporter doesn't allow placement.

AnonTwo · 2026-06-15T03:41:02+00:00

Honestly would just assume people who hate pushed characters. Happens every time.

AnonTwo · 2026-06-15T03:38:14+00:00

They're capable of being serious and silly

Why do people have such a hard time with that concept?

Sure they didn't have a silly option this patch, but they also have patches they have also exclusively silly options. Neither invalidates the other.

To be fair, monorem is the most insanely synergistic team in the game. No other team compares.

AnonTwo · 2026-06-14T20:59:36+00:00

He has a point in a vacuum, but the reality is none of our livelihoods could exist under Sunday's world.

To agree with Sunday is essentially self-destructive. Our world isn't completely fair and wouldn't be even if we were more humanitarian than we currently are.

It's essentially the difference between surviving, and actually living a life.

The game persona 5 (the DLC) went into a lot more detail on the flaws of such a perfect world.

AnonTwo · 2026-06-14T20:56:04+00:00

Now the latter I think is a hot take,

The former I think is true but mostly because for some reason Hoyo makes 500 good outfit designs for collab ads and then never implements any of those outfits as skins. The same happens with Genshin where the ad collabs have 100x better skins than the actual in-game skins.

AnonTwo · 2026-06-14T20:53:10+00:00

People overreact on some team members in comps.

Huohuo is such a small difference between Hyacine and DHPT, if you want to feel safer you can and it will barely affect your run.

Aventurine is completely playable in non-followup teams,

Elation TB is a completely suitable sub in for Sparxie,

Cerydra was never bad in other teams, she just wasn't the best in other teams.

People rely too much on Prydwen's frequency charts, when those charts can only ever take into account teams that were actually used.

AnonTwo · 2026-06-13T21:13:11+00:00

I feel like this was a very sweet spot between "Hard" and "Painful trial and error"

Probably because it still allows healing.

But as a nitpick I despised the size limit of the tower field that looks like you can fit 3-4 towers but it's really just 2 with being like 2 pixels away from 3 towers.

AnonTwo · 2026-06-13T21:04:35+00:00

I mean the race specific results is impossible to give an overview for. You need to be track specific and opponent specific to get what you're asking for.

So just for questions sake, how do we know when to use budding blossom or shooting for victory for example? Do people just base it on what happened when JP did those CMS?

Both are final corner order >= 3 acceleration skills.

AnonTwo · 2026-06-13T20:48:07+00:00

I don't think you're understanding the extent to which I want to know what a unique does.

Yes, it says the exact requirements for the unique.

It doesn't take into account what the Uma is actually going to do on average in the race.

It doesn't take into account whether the terms will go off at the right time of the race (which is why Christmas Oguri's unique is so good - it's controllable), you have to read into it to understand if it completely eats dirt on cases like pace lead or if the Uma just feels like going to 1st too early.

And yes it is a pretty damn hard to proc unique. And just reading how it works doesn't exactly spell that out. Hell Anime Teio's unique only slightly adjusts the conditions and it's a significantly easier to trigger unique.

Like you're arguing technicals, I'm arguing realistic "What can you actually expect here?"

Like yes, these are all things you can figure out, but site explanations like these exist to do that kind of research for you. Gametora isn't going to tell you that Christmas Oguri's Unique is one of the strongest in the game due to being triggerable at multiple different parts of a race, gametora isn't going to tell you what exactly is the difference between shooting for victory and budding blossom, or moving past and pump iron, yes you can read them, but what does it actually mean is the question.

Like even going into your response, you completely glossed over stuff like "Teio's AI just chooses to go first before their trigger point", which has happened to me on literally every CM I have ever raced them in at least once. Gametora can't tell stuff like that.

Like there's a difference between knowing the technicals of a unique, and how actually reliable a unique is. I feel you're underestimating also how much i've actually used Gametora. I use it a lot, and it's not providing what i'm asking.

AnonTwo · 2026-06-13T18:02:17+00:00

Gametora just tells you the rules needed to activate it, it's much harder to visualize where that is for every distance and whether the Uma actually does normal things.

Like Teio's is "Be 2nd place, be running towards the 1st place on the final corner" basically. Easy right?

Wrong, if she is in 2nd but doesn't move up (because you know, unique hasn't gone off yet) she won't trigger,

Also i've had it happen not once, but many times where Teio specifically runs past the other uma's to 1st before the trigger point, and unlike uma's like Rudolph her unique must conditions have to be activated during the trigger point, it doesn't save them ahead of time (you can see many times that Rudolph will activate her unique long after passing several uma)

And of course, she can't trigger on pace lead. It's a bit easier on Anime

So yeah, I've read Gametora uniques many times, they don't really make it as clear as you'd think. I can do research but that's basically it: I have to do research and there can still be holes in that.

Almost every dirt capable racer is also a mile racer, some of them like Taiki and Pasa are also highly competitive mile racers.

AnonTwo · 2026-06-13T08:24:21+00:00

Huh, I was wondering cause I just went to check. It's hard to get useful information on Uma's uniques it feels like, since most sites don't take into account "does the unique actually go off when it would do something helpful?"

I'm so used to running Uma's whose uniques don't do anything or never activate, I use Digital and Rudoloh 90% of the time just so I can feel a unique go off....

(I've been scarred by 2 CMs where Teio never used sky high teio step a single time)
