  • Generally I’d say they’re one of the most dangerous things you could voluntarily run on your PC. As someone whose education and profession is in infosec, games are one of the things I refuse to pirate because the risk is just too high for me.

    Just running an untrusted exe from a shady source is enough to make my hair stand on end but the idea of intentionally replacing low level hypervisor components makes me run away screaming.

    FWIW, the type of games that require HV bypasses are ones that I would pass on because the “legitimate” DRM is basically equally as scary from a security perspective.

    Everyone’s risk tolerance is different though. 🤷‍♂️

    It’s completely commonplace for skeletons to get up and start walking around in these settings so I’m guessing they have different cultural expectations for gravesites. The PC is basically just dealing with a pest problem.

    Cyberbullying isn’t just people saying mean stuff to you. It’s also posting mean stuff about you, that your community can see and maybe you don’t even know about but impacts your reputation. Imagine the Mean Girls burn book but posted online and nigh impossible for any authority to do anything about. And that’s like, the most innocent version of what this could be.
