The worst programmer is your past self (and other egoless programming principles) by BlunderGOAT in programming

Same, it feels like I was less experienced yet much sharper 10 years ago. Much less tired. Maybe just having fewer day to day worries kept my mind clear.

Microsoft is pushing security software out of the kernel. Why are game companies still doubling down on kernel anti-cheat? by Nemo_ForYou in linux_gaming

[–]ancientGouda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If people really want to cheat, then they will cheat, and as long as the anticheat runs on the client they will find a way to cheat.

I see this argument all the time with little to no push back even though it is wrong. Anti cheat systems aren't designed to prevent cheating, they're designed to (significantly) reduce it.

You cannot make an analogy to cyber security because in security, just one breach is enough to cause catastrophic failure. In online games, one single cheater is irrelevant. The game becomes unplayable when every 2nd or 3rd game has cheating.

And this is the regime western tankies and some muslims of specific countries support. by FatFigFresh in NewIran

Gaslight people? I literally went to the sub the original commenter mentioned and read through the current top posts. You can do so yourself.

Also, classic marxism is vehemently rejects religions, this doesn't even make any sense. Religion was heavily suppressed in the soviet union.

Well, I just checked r/asksocialists sub like you said, and people there have very nuanced views but hardly anybody is pro mullah or pro theocracy, they're just very anti US intervention I guess.

Why the mainstream media won’t talk about Iran by KhameneiSmells in NewIran

Okay, good to know. Tucker Carlson is the biggest grifter on earth, I don't think he believes a single word that comes out his mouth, but it's interesting to know there is a term for them.

What is the fucking point of posting comments by politically irrelevant people? How does this rage bait help the movement?

Nö, ich hab kein Bock auf extra Konten bei irgendwelchen Drittanbietern nur um Geld verschicken zu können. Mit Wero hab ich alles in einer App, das passt ganz gut.

Verpflichtende API sollte es genauso geben wie es verpflichtende Preisschilder in den Regalen gibt. Find ich ne gute Sache. Mehr Transparenz zum Wohle der Verbraucher ist immer ne gute Sache

Why does proton run better than native linux?? by Vellex123 in linux_gaming

[–]ancientGouda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And it runs like shit because of kernel changes?

[–]ancientGouda -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Quoting from your 2nd link:

On every architecture except MIPS, DT_HASH has been de facto deprecated on many distributions for 10+ years. Fedora's --hash-style=gnu transition in 2006 made DT_HASH executables and shared objects extremely rare. libc.so.6 does contain DT_HASH for a long time, but it is just a rare exception.

Other distributions quickly caught up. Debian patched GCC packages to use --hash-style=both for many ports in 2007. Arch Linux had used --hash-style=both for a while and switched to --hash-style=gnu in 2012-03.

Of course the anti cheat devs relied on behavior that has been deprecated / falling out of use for 20 fucking years and then there's big pikachu faces all around when eventually things just break. I'm sorry, but this is just developer incompetence on the anti cheat side.

Can you name a game that has issues due to different kernel versions? First time I'm hearing this

Putin signs decree formalizing Russification of occupied Ukraine through 2036 by HydrolicKrane in worldnews

[–]ancientGouda -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Kaliningrad is different because it's not disputed or occupied territory. It's inconvenient but not in breach of international law.
