flashgnash, to memes in High speed butthole !!

I don’t know why I just love the random underlining and his expression

flashgnash, to linux_gaming in Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney was asked by Verge why there is no support for the Steam Deck for Fortnite

No amount of clientside anticheat software can stop that either though, anything running on the clientside can be faked/manipulated with enough effort

Also you could argue someone could simply plug in another device that takes a video input and can simulate a keyboard and mouse

On the server side, you could check for abnormalities in a person’s stats, for example if they get >90% headshots, if they’re getting a lot of kills outside a weapon’s normal range, amount of time aiming at enemies through walls that they shouldn’t be able to see etc etc

Then, once someone is suspicious enough, flag it up to a human moderator who can watch them and verify

Not saying there shouldn’t be any clientside anticheat at all but at the point of the anticheat putting itsself in kernel space it’s gone too far

flashgnash, to programmerhumor in Which other AI product is like this?

Burger king has never seemed like a place I’d voluntarily go as a vegetarian. Tried walking in once and the smell alone made me turn around and go elsewhere

I hate that the solution for them is to try to lock down users’ own machines rather than trying to secure their own servers with server side anticheat

Goes against the whole philosophy of never trusting the clientside

flashgnash, to memes in Not such a conspiracy theory now

On the contrary it being open source is the only way I’d ever put a chip in my brain.

Hell no I don’t want proprietary code running with access to my brain that I don’t have complete control and knowledge of

Just look at how much sneaky crap is in smartphones already

I find YouTube unfortunately to be the best at grabbing my attention

They’ve cracked the code with their UX to make it as addictive as humanly possible

Open YouTube to watch a long form video, get shown about 5 shorts per one video and inevitably end up seeing something interesting in a short, then end up scrolling for way too long on your very own skinner box

flashgnash, to linux in Booting into Linux 6.6.6

So what you’re saying is we’re already 9 layers deep in hell

flashgnash, to linux in Booting into Linux 6.6.6

What about a WiFi enabled printer with Bluetooth support

flashgnash, to linux in Easiest way to switch distros

They have a getting started guide on their wiki I believe

Once you install it it should generate a config file in /etc/nixos/configuration.nix, the way I did it was reading that and figuring it out from there. (That file is your universal source of truth for your entire system)

You can install packages/software by adding them to the systemPackages block in the file and running sudo nixos-rebuild switch and you can find pretty much anything you need on nixos.org/nixos/packages.html

Also the community is pretty friendly, can generally get your questions answered on lemmy/matrix

flashgnash, (edited ) to linux in Easiest way to switch distros

If you want to automate your system install Nix is a good one to look at, nowadays when I use a new system/wipe an existing one I can just install NixOS drop my config, sign into the things that need signing into and go

Obviously doesn’t work as well if you’re trying other distros but you can still use it on them

flashgnash, to linux in My Experience Of Linux Gaming (Switching from Windows)

Provided you don’t want to play one of the few games that refuse to enable Linux support on their anticheat I’ve found my PC can run games designed to run on windows far more smoothly now than they ever did on windows

flashgnash, to technology in HP misreads room, awkwardly brags about its “less hated” printers

Assuming that’s dollars and not pounds that’s alright, but often if I’m getting Domino’s it’s delivery for one reason or another and that often ends up expensive, especially if you want to customise it

flashgnash, to asklemmy in What are your Microsoft Windows hidden gem apps

FancyWM

If I absolutely have to use windows it works pretty well in letting me keep my workflow from Linux along with some hotkeys for cycling virtual desktops

flashgnash, to technology in HP misreads room, awkwardly brags about its “less hated” printers

Domino’s is expensive, delicious addictive shit that’s always available on short notice

Great in an emergency, probably not very good for you though

flashgnash, to memes in venture capitalism goes brrr

Looks nice to me, feels a lot cleaner
