it’s all fun and games until you want to use your mouse and keyboard inputs on another machine and also view the other machines screen contents. then all of a sudden stuff stops being a file. quaint.
if only there was a way to share resources over a network…
i said “you seem to be trying to be a dick”. now you are misrepresenting what i said.
ok then, here we go: how do you think COULD anti cheat catch such a contraption?
how is such a contraption relevant to a kernel driver on another machine?
the article isnt about “how to cheat nowadays effectively” but “why dont these games work on linux?” and also what joyjoy above correctly took away: “gamedevs COULD do better and not need to rely on kernel level anticheat like valorant does and yet here we are.”
im done with you two.
as you say
that was not claiming that you were misrepresenting something. read it again if you must. gbye
i already stated my intentions. now you are picking fights. gbye
not the author, but it is interesting that instead of staying on topic, you diverge the reader to some contraption that as you say doesnt even run code on the machine we are hypothetically talking about.
i believe the article i brought forward was from an earnest, non-cheating gamer, sounds even like a dev to me, trying to clear up to non-dev gamers or devs-who-havent-touched-AC-tech-so-far-as-a-dev (like myself) why (some) anti cheat protected games dont play on linux.
and, pardon my french but you seem to be trying to be a dick. the article was only relevant in so far as it’s about anti-cheat and was not in response to this lemmy post. look at the date.
and i clearly stated it as only kinda relevant. so, like, chill out dude.
stumbled over this a couple days ago, kinda relevant in case one wants to know more about ac and why its as it is on linux
so… totally kidding when into and actually flirting when not?
did you know? they found out in 2015 that this might be dangerous if mixed with alcohol.
they then did a study with 23 male and 2(!) female participants.
a good ad might be: “this stuff is so safe, you could eat the whole package at once! i mean, not you, being a woman, but a man definitely could!”
now that’s what i call awkward
probably to busy trying to ignore whatever his own life has in store for him?
in cases like these i default to my pet theory of "transphobic people are without realizing basically just inexperienced, scared little kids pretending to be adults, just like everyone else. except these havent seen so much of the world and a little ‘exposure therapy’ could actually work wonders if anyone really gave one of them an actual chance… but nobody has to put up with their bullshit so nobody will 🤷♀️ " (speaking about a singular transphobic person. a whole herd of them is just a stampede waiting to happen)
but maybe that is just naivety on my part, believing that nobody is so lost they are irrecoverable :3
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew scoots faaaar away from you actually when writing the prior comment, i was thinking about the ease that is doing what i described on plan9, there everything is in fact a file, which you can simply mount via the 9p protocol
what mumblerfish suggests looks interesting and i would have to read some the man page of “nc”, i suppose…
