Banned open source software because of security concerns. For password management they require LastPass or that we write them down in a book that we keep on ourselves at all times. Worth noting that this policy change was a few months ago. After the giant breach.

And for extra absurdity: MFA via SMS only.

I wish I was making this up.

No.

You get to break windows and get to freedom.

Sure buddy

Microsoft even copied KDE's motto "Simple by default, powerful when needed" in their Windows 11 announcement.

Isn't this illegal?

Sweet, just won 10 bucks on a bet!

Ok, I have a feature request...

Most of it is perfectly reasonable.

• IP: Simplest identifier for smurf accounts, also very ineffective since you can just reset router. But public info anyway.

• Game identifier: Obviously

• Hardware dev info: More effective identifier for smurf accounts and more effective form of banning (and decent way to check if you're in a VM, depending how hardened it is)

• OS info: Different OS's require different functions

• Game and system files: Don't agree with this one unless you're incredibly deep into e-sports (professional). For casuals, checking game files: Fine. Checking system files: Fuck off.

• Running processes: Checking for running non-hidden cheats

• File names: Not quite sure what they mean here

The text at the bottom also states that it only collects this if it detects potential for cheats, which obviously is going to include false positives, but it isn't constantly mining the data like other ACs.

BattlEye isn't the greatest AC so should be fine anyway.

So all those people who rip videos from youtube (not linking to them but download and reupload, usually with intro/outro and watermarks edited out) are now going to get paid for it?

How is that not theft, again?

Were Valve to let its competitors implement SteamOS on their devices

...

Hold on, what? I thought Nikola ended after their giant fraud?

They literally just need to enable it in the dev page of EAC and Proton handles the reat.

All hail GrapheneOS

Reply with "Appropriate actions will been taken, thank you for your report" and sticky the post.

Fully reusable super-heavy rockets with multiple full stage combustion engines running on Methane have been done before? You mind sharing sources because I can't find any.

Closest thing I can think of is the Soviet N1 rocket (about 2/3 the thrust of Starship) which the Soviets really struggled with and ended up abandoning, and it wasn't even close to being reusable.

Should be "GNOME mutter what"

GrapheneOS is a really easy process, hardest part is unlocking the bootloader (which isn't hard at all).

Rest of the process is just clicking 3* buttons on a website and you're done.

*Some buttons you have to click multiple times
