Well yeah they are public? Lemmy is indexed by Google. I imagine everything on here is as well.

It’s not exactly hard. It’s really simple. It’s just shit to use.

I kind of lucid dream but only enough to know I’m in a dream. Been the same since I was young.

It usually happens during nightmares. I’ve learnt to throw my right shoulder back as hard as I can in the dream and I wake up doing it.

It is correct. Half is 3/6 a third is 2/6. So a half is one third larger than 1/3

My git gui has a tick box on that prompt to specifically include added files. I now see why haha

Every new project for me starts with setting up git. There’s no reason not to. It takes seconds.

Lookup Unix socks

Yeah for sure. Used to be absolutely critical back when things like java in websites was a thing haha

If you’re trying to save as many games as possible and the vast majority are on windows it completely does.

The problem is it’s a tiny fraction of games and users. It’s a lot of resources for little gain.

Every time I create a new repo haha I usually just delete the runs and squash the commits so it looks like I got it first time.

Not back peddling you are misunderstanding what kernel access means.

You don’t need kernel level access (the thing we are literally discussing) to kill processes. Which was literally your example.

Obviously the OS handles it. How the fuck else would it work?

It is literally installed by choice. It’s part of the game installation. It’s up to users to know what they are installing. Many games likely install lots of things that aren’t immediately obvious.

It doesn’t infiltrate the system.

Pretty much all code is making requests to the kernel. That isn’t what is happening here.

It’s side stepping the kernel. That’s the whole point. You don’t know what you’re talking about.

Nah words have meaning. I get you don’t like it but that doesn’t make it spyware or malware.

Spyware isn’t about watching your system or memory it’s about stealing personal information.

These anti cheats specifically comply with privacy laws or they wouldn’t be allowed. You won’t find any breaking any laws.

Anti virus and anti malware applications do the same. Doesn’t make them spyware.

I’m a programmer I understand what they are. I understand why they suck.

Stopping processes is actually a user space action. You can do it without admin rights btw. Even if it popped the admin screen that’s still not a kernel level action.

Asking the kernel to do something is basically all operations and not the same as kernel level access.

Yeah that it’s considered malware. I did Google it and there’s nothing saying that.

No it’s literally not what malware is. Otherwise anti virus would be. And anti malware haha

It’s literally none of those things mentioned.

You are doing massive mental gymnastics. Intentionally nasty for an anit cheat is just stupid. You 100% know that’s not what that means.

It also doesn’t invade, damage, disable or take control of the system.

Just because you don’t like it doesn’t make it malware.

How do they steal your data? They also said malware

I’m sure they did and it’s not. Malware isn’t defined by its privileges but what it does.
