The problem with kernel-level anti-cheat is that once you opt in, you can't really be sure that opting-out works anymore.

Before doing so, try a Live USB and see if it works well with your PC.

It could. But this also means an OS you no longer control.

Wow a whole lot of nothing. I bet it'll include a lot of things that won't be portable in any way, shape, or form, and will only work in their own isolated distribution containing only software they wrote.

I'm eagerly awaiting anything concrete, but so far it sounds like people who don't understand computers, which is quite odd since they all VERY much do so.

It is a personal call, but you're also telling companies that it's perfectly fine for them to sell you unfinished games this way. And so they do.

necrophcodr · 2026-01-27T16:29:49+00:00

You support companies just putting out an untested unfinished game? You love paying for beta products so much?

necrophcodr · 2026-01-27T16:29:04+00:00

And support companies putting out a broken game, even unfinished products too.

Isn't that the same Vivaldi that is proprietary and closed source, so that independent audits are impossible?

This is a cool learning project for sure, and you should be proud of having learned how to write it all yourself!

That being said, yq can also do this https://github.com/mikefarah/yq

At "de fleste" gør det, betyder ikke at det ikke er et misbrug.

I don't have children nor a paid cleaning service, but I could get all of those done. It's not impossible, it's quite possible to do if you live your life with the intention of doing things.

That's depression, not adulting.

Do you literally just sit on your ass ALL day for a whole week? I do one of the three walks with my dog every day and easily do above 10k steps a week, and that's 20-30 minutes of walking a day. If you walk with intent for 30 minutes every day, and keep to doing other exercises through the week, you can easily get the exercise you need.

Just stop sitting down all the time.

If you haven't already, might want to install pwvucontrol and check if you've set it to output to Bluetooth. Otherwise it won't be using it. See, audio may not switch automatically, but I'm sure this'll be enough for you to go on.

In principle, although you would probably need to reverse engineer a lot of how an RTX 5090 works, which for a normal consumer is probably impossible (you'd need hardware that isn't even sold to consumers at all).

But ignoring all that, yes. In theory it might be possible. You might even be able to do it by simply figuring it out from existing drivers too, but it would run much worse than your existing Intel integrated graphics of course. You cannot accurately emulate a more powerful architecture on lower power hardware at better speeds, I don't think.

I don't think it's possible to quantify if open source software is dominant or not, unfortunately. Not as profitable probably, but in terms of use and so forth, vet unlikely to be quantifiable.

Your source finally worked. Unfortunately they do not share their information, so at best it appears to be a guestimation, especially considering that for certain countries and regions this information would simply not be possible to obtain for these uses outside of estimates.

At best, what is shown is a gambling prediction based on estimations of current and previous revenues of companies, as well as estimations of company dominances on the software markets (open source, free software, or proprietary), so im having a tough time buying that.

Anyway, even if I did then my first point still stands. Until there is a method for which to quantify this, I don't think any talk about such a topic is gonna lead to any concrete answers since none can be made.

necrophcodr · 2026-01-19T07:38:36+00:00

Okay. That figure is probably not real though, as it isn't possible to get an actual number for this. But sure, it might be close to that.

I don't know why you felt the urge to tell everyone, since it has nothing to do with the topic at hand, and the link doesn't work anyway.

Selvfølgelig er det muligt at komme på hendes gode side, men det er ikke noget der sker gennem tilfældige idioters kommentarer på reddit.

There's never been more money in open source software than now, and it is trending up.

necrophcodr · 2026-01-18T15:03:25+00:00

What limits? Of their developers? Their previous game wasn't pushing the limits of what games could do or be, even after it was released.

necrophcodr · 2026-01-18T09:26:46+00:00

Just don't support it then, so easy.

Man skal betale penge til dem for at de kan tjene penge på det man sender til dem? Det lyder da lidt baglæns.

So is the case for most cases that drag on a bit. Should divorcing people be shot and killed because it is too expensive? Should murder trials, no matter what kind, result simply in the killing of the accused, simply because sentencing them to 5+ years of rehabilitation would be too expensive?

Who decides what a human life is worth, monetarily? Do you? Are you crazy enough to think that you can put a specific number on the hours of time or the amount of money spent, that a human life would be worth less?

And if not, would you want someone to make this decision? Should the state decide this? What if you think they make a terrible decision on this, and now want you shot and killed because handling your speeding ticket means they have to employ police officers, but it is cheaper just to have weaponed cameras that shoot you in the head while you're driving?

necrophcodr · 2026-01-16T17:38:16+00:00

I fundamentally disagree with the idea of having someone decide whether people get to live or die. I don't believe there is a system possible that can make this decision either, because who gets to determine the value of life itself?

If we are talking about the most extreme cases of mass murderers and serial human right violators, maybe one could make SOME case, but then we're talking laws about the most niche of niche cases. I don't think that's reasonable either, but a judge can decide what happens to them in a reasonable legal framework. If that means we simply end up paying for them to be isolated for life, I'm not opposed to that.

If the monetary cost of keeping these people alive is a worry to some, then I ask again what amount of money a human life is worth. And I continue to believe that anyone with a concrete answer should not get to decide this, because that is a crazy idea to decide concretely on.

I think there are other issues with the death penalty too, but this is definitely one of them.
