Oh HELL naw

I’m gen x and wish I was not cut.

It’s fucking barbaric. There are regions where it is considered tradition and the governments have a very hard uphill battle against generations of normalization and traditional culture. It really is just so very awful. I’m a cut male and I hate it. The skin is far too tight feeling when erect, but that is really not anywhere near the female version. I can’t imagine how awful it is for women.

I thought that if you swallowed your gum, it would stay in your stomach forever, so you had to make sure to never do it because eventually there would be no room for food anymore.

Also, old CRT TVs had this static electricity sort of fuzzy feeling on the screen, and if you ran your hand over it, it would dissipate. I thought that by doing that, you were absorbing the TVs power and if you did it too much, it would eventually stop working.

Lastly, I believed with all my heart that all the pets you ever owned were waiting for you in heaven and it made me mad when my (very devout Catholic) grandma told me that pets and animals don’t have souls and so they didn’t go to heaven. I said if that was true then I didn’t want to go to heaven! I’m atheist now, so I don’t even believe that anyone goes to heaven, but if anyone deserves to go, it’s all the kitties, puppies, and various rodentia I’ve loved in my life.

My response is getting downvoted. Even downvotes won’t give EAC kernel access on my computer 😂

Punched a Nazi in the jaw at a party once. He left and everyone was happier once he did. Fuck that Nazi and his sore Nazi jaw.

I would agree that it’s not “inconceivable”. I can conceive of it just fine. It’s just a pretty absurd idea.

From two years ago, for time context, regarding EAC in Linux:

No. It has zero kernel access, and that’s not even possible.

EAC has (and has had for years) a native Linux client. That native Linux client is userspace only and has zero kernel access. Before, it was only for native Linux games that had EAC, like War Thunder, 7 Days to Die, Rust (before they abandoned Linux), etc. Epic refused to allow the Linux native EAC to work with Windows EAC games through Wine/Proton. That changed last fall, when Epic made the announcement.

Now, EAC games that work in Wine/Proton use the LINUX NATIVE EAC client, which communicates with a Linux EAC binary that each game that enables support ships, alongside their Windows EAC binary. The Steam Proton EasyAntiCheat Runtime is also required. This runtime allows the NATIVE Linux EAC client (which again, is 100% userspace only and has no kernel level access) to communicate with the Windows userspace EAC binary, to allow for a less-secure but still better than nothing EAC functionality for Windows games running in Wine/Proton.

The exact same situation is true for BattlEye. BattlEye has had a native Linux client for years, but it was userspace only, and didn’t work with Wine/Proton games. Now it does, in the same way EAC does.

This is also why so many games are refusing to enable it. Because it’s inherently less secure against cheaters than the kernel-level EAC/BattlEye Windows implementation. Just read 343’s Destiny 2 comments from the past week and you’ll see that exact reasoning. And I (and others) said from the beginning when it was announced last fall that many games would in fact refuse to enable EAC/BE support because of the less secure nature and increased risk of cheaters. And I was right.

Yes! I had forgotten his name! Haha wow, I need to go watch that show again, it’s been a long time.

Apex does not use kernel level anti cheat. It just uses normal easy anti cheat.

Wow, I fucking hate the state of journalism right now.

Ever seen Red Dwarf? There was a talking toaster in that.

Aldi is the only place I’ve seen. However, Aldi recently started installing self checkout, which I despise.

I remember logging into BBS systems in the 90’s and seeing a lot of hate for the Clintons. This was in St. Louis, a fairly blue city, but surrounded by red (the rest of MO as well as southern IL)

We know a little, there’s a whole wiki page about it lol just pieces together from Murderbot’s descriptions. - but according to the author, it’s like “How To Get Away With Murder” but in space.

Gotta love The Rise and Fall of Sanctuary Moon from The Murderbot Diaries.

I’m a fan of Steam. People will complain about monopolies but then want there to be a monopoly for this kind of software.

I’m just saying, there is a clear double standard in this post/comment section in general where Valve gets a pass.
