Uh no I’m a linux user and i know the anti cheats that do support linux do basically nothing since any root process can hook in. If majority of gamers were on linux multiplayer games would be unplayable.
Anti cheat is always a Cat and mouse solution not just on the client side and that doesnt mean its bad and cat and mouse solutions do still reduce cheaters.
Good server side anti cheat is a perfect ideal solution, its never existed and I don’t think it will exist.
What are you comparing it to? Americans have a much easier path to permanent residency than a vast majority of the world.
Take a look at the skills lists they aren’t that insane. Also you dont need to go straight for permanent residency you can start with a working visa which is easy to get.
Its not that hard especially for an American.
I’m aware but games and players still want a strong anti cheating solution. There is no protection currently on linux for cheating.
I cant unsee a hydraulic press on his head.
Yes but if linux gets popular those games will get linux cheaters and will be pressured to do something.
Majority of linux users are on a monetized OS. Consultancy, extended service, feature implementation, fast support, donations, merch are all common monetisation methods across major linux distros and there is nothing wrong with any of them.
There are very few distros funded solely by the maintainers they are usually hobby projects.
I know that guy is a crazy tankie, I’ve see him around. What he brought up is a bunch of shit intended to waste time. He doesnt care about any of those things so trying to argue is a waste of time and most of its untrue or misleading.
Which ones dont monetize their OS? Its not that they are uniquely important. Its that its perfectly fine to monetize their own os. They are selling a service that is additional support for users that want it. Pretty simple stuff, you see users asking for this stuff all the time.
Why shouldn’t they be able to offer additional paid support for their own distro? Why does it matter
Poof them out of existence, and what, outside of their own direct projects, breaks?
How is this relevant at all?
Hardware support and working with manufacturers to bring linux support, vendor support bringing mainstream apps to linux, advertising linux laptops and getting it in front of people all around the world, Wayland, gnome, accessibility, a ton shit way to much to list. Just because the improvements are done for Ubuntu doesnt mean they arent useful on other distros. Its free software after all the rising tide lifts all boats. Canonical arent a huge mega corp raking in cash. They cant compare to giants like redhat.
Fuck off Tankie, I will not fall for your concern trolling bait today.
You do not seriously think all canonical has done is snaps and Gnome.
Is building one of the most popular linux desktop environments and distros not enough to sell a paid support package to the users who want it? I dont think thats unfair.
before you know it you’ll have to raise these little computers as your children and be charged with murder when they die
If you’re a pro life person then you’d probably consider this a life and consider these experiments murder. If you arent then I dont think you would see this as a conscious human brain. Following the abortion debate doesnt mean we have to take the conservative side it means you probably draw the line here in the same place you draw the line in the abortion debate.
Wtf no. Tourism is awesome, you get to show people from around the world the awesome parts of your country and take them on amazing experiences. It makes a ton of money and encourages a beautiful town.
A world where every town was manufacturing, or tech sounds like a dystopian hellscape.
What do you think canonical should charge for? They do put a ton of work into the linux eco system
This paper was published a few years ago. I remember reading through it because it sounded very scary. In its current state I dont think it crosses any ethical bounds as its less than 30days old with no lived experience or consciousness. The ethical line should probably follow whatever the abortion debate defines consciousness as. Which I think is 30 weeks
It did spark a few ethics papers on the topic which turned out to be a horrible dry boring reads with seemingly no consensus.
Claude please place this rake down I’m about to take a step forward!
Probably over 6 figures a year. The running costs are super low and they still get a good bit of use. They are way better at aggregating than PH. Oh just sucks at tagging and filtering and its categories are shit. The content is also low these days.
My friends are excited and want to do a play through for the first time. I was super hyped but i realised it doesnt add or change anything so that killed my hype instantly. I really need AU servers to enjoy the game again. High ping just sucks so badly in gw1.
