I’m not an expert, but it sounds like if you finish a session of valorant, the anti cheat never unloads and continues to monitor memory and files.

Easy Anticheat though, according so some sources, only runs during game play.

Riots Anticheat has a bad history though. But both essentially are black boxes that send details both hash and samples back to their owners for them to approve what’s on it computer. Opened a medical record? It’s probably been hashed and sent back.

Opened your employers accounting files when working from home? details you probably sent riot a copy.

Both can be updated. There’s no guarantees that riot won’t do something nasty against a portion of high value targets. They know you from your payment details. They can identify, update the module and get anything they like, they have root.

Anticheat has a history of being a tool for hackers. https://www.vice.com/en/article/hackers-are-using-anti-cheat-in-genshin-impact-to-ransom-victims/

There’s no upside for the user. Mostly because they don’t work anyway.

Just compile your kernel with the anti cheat flags and telemetry enabled from source.

I guess that’s your loss

George isn’t throwing shade. This is only a possibility for why their last stint was so disastrous. What changed? They overcooked the plank wear and to avoid disqualification they raised ride height and slowed top speed. It’s not throwing shade, it’s how George suddenly could catch and have several overtake opportunities. It’s not like suddenly Leclerc got slow or George got fast. The car changed.

In the last stint Leclerc was corrective steering based on input telemetry in corners more while going slower. It’s rationale to suggest less downforce. Lastly there’s only two things they can change at pit stops, tyres and front wing. Nothing else legally or time wise can be changed. It’s unfathomable to think they’d change the front wing on the race leading car. But ride height seems plausible, via more air in the tyres.

In other words George is likely right in his attempt to explain his sudden speed delta compared to leclerc.

Edit: Personally I bet the high pressure tyre was desperate if that’s the case. High pressure tyres make less contact with the road and decrease grip. So whatever fraction of height they gained they no doubt lost not just downforce from height but lateral traction capability in the tyre itself.

Stretched limousines exist by this very method. I’m Australian but the concept wasn’t started here. https://www.belle.net.au/building-a-stretch-limousine/

Edit:

We do know of limousines that have been shipped back to the USA for failing to meet Australian standards.

I’d say it’s easier in many American states.

Robotics OS, more like a subsystem to fit controlling sensors and motors

Snaps are awesome, I need to be on 20.04, or 18.04 for humble, for ROS noetic and so being able to install generic snaps which are fully up to date with modern software is awesome.

I use Ubuntu for ROS and work specific tasks, but I get the fuck out when I want to game. Ubuntu looks like a job to me. Just like Windows looks like a job to me.

But the thing is, that’s just me. Can’t imagine being mad at someone else for using it, but Ubuntu makes me irrationally mad because it’s associated to work.

Oh you think you exist somehow outside the simulation and are not just a construct of it. The Truman of the show.

Perfect

What a great post. I haven’t used pcsx2 since I wrote a yakuza guide probably decades ago. But that post was great to read.

I feel like you understand the text book but didn’t know the application.

I’ve worked with Windows environments from 2003 until still today migrating to azure. The biggest skills gap with technicians and engineers administrating Windows is actually networking. This single point connects every single service server and user and yet dns, dhcp, routing and it’s protocols, link layer technologies like vlans interface configurations aggregation and more is so poorly understood that engineers and technicians often significantly mistake problems. Almost all issues happen around network layers 2-4 or layer 8 (the end user).

It doesn’t need to be first but no matter what os or component, networking is core and the single biggest return on investment for systems admin types.

Sure other basic skills are required but just being able to test TCP by telnet or understand each hop, and is the server listening? What process ID is listening? Did someone configure rdp off 3389 and that’s why it doesn’t work? Was the host file edited and that’s why it’s resolving some old ip for this hostname? Why is it going out the wan interface of the router when it should be going over an ipsec tunnel?

All this and more has nothing to do with Windows, and yet, anything that isn’t just user training or show and tell about how to do something, there’s a good chance it requires you to follow the networking layers to make sure behaviour is expected.

If dns resolved then it’s not blocked. You need to look at your network.

Bypass dns connect to the ip and port. What happens?

This won’t work, your wan ip isn’t dynamic, it’s on the ISP NAT network and your resulting ip to public services is shared across many customers. CG-NAT.

I don’t know where you work but don’t access your tailnet from a work device and ideally not their network.

Speaking to roku, you could buy a cheap raspberri pi and usb network port. One port to the network the other to roku. The pi can have a tailscale advertised network to the roku, and the roku probably needs nothing since everything is upstream including private tailscale 100.x.y.z networks which will be captured by your device in the middle raspberri pi.

I guess that’d cost like 40 ish dollars one time.

Curious if someone would then add how well the games on steam deck run in comparison… Though that’s not exactly legal I suppose

You could retire off this pun.

They could be, but I assume say like an apple device won’t install a ccp root authority unconditionally. Huawei and xiamoi probably could be forced, but the browser too, like Chrome, Firefox and safari need to also accept the device certificates as trusted.

But the pressure in Europe would likely be to trade within Europe, you must comply.

It fundamentally destroys the whole trust of PKI if this did go ahead. We just need to hope it does not.

If your browser and device has a state sponsored CA certificate it’s not trivial to bypass. Transparently all certificate traffic could be intercepted by an ISP. Look at Europe already trying. Once someone malicious (to you) is a trusted certificate issuer you no longer can verify either the destination nor the privacy of the content.

Ssl based vpns are also decrypted. And vpns which use public key for identification would no longer be trusted.
