Comment on Battlefield 6 cheats day 1 of early access. Depite kernel level anti cheat, forced secure boot TPM 2.0

  I don’t think he needs a winning argument. I think EA needs to justify this kernel level AC, not the other way around.

    I’m agreeing with point 4.

  1. Yeah, well the secure boot keys needed for Linux distributions expire in September (tomshardware.com/…/microsoft-signing-key-required…), so that seems like a sustainable solution, sure buddy.
  2. What’s your income? What region of the world do you live in and what hardware is available to you? I’m still using an am4 platform PC as my daily driver because I can’t burn money. One of my buddies has an AM3 PC. Many people use modified surplus office PCs (especially in developing nations like South America or SEA), which don’t have secure boot as an option. Check your privilege, and maybe donate some of your spare hardware to those who need it, if you want to make this “a non issue” for everyone.
  3. Yeah. I own my hardware, I configure my software. I gut Windows like a fish and keep it on a leash for these games, and use Linux for my work and for the games that respect the ecosystem.

    1. New keys have already been released and you can always just create and enroll your own damn keys. This is sensationalist nonsense.
    2. “Check my privilege” over secure boot? Calm down, Karen.
    3. I think gaming on PC is going to get interesting in the coming decade as Microsoft kicks third parties out of the kernel (thanks crowdstrike!) and more and more people just stop putting up with windows. Enterprise in the US is hooked but everyone else? Na, they are gonna drop it.

      On the list thing, it seems that adding numbers with periods in a list seems to auto configure it to ascending numbers. That’s why I used (1) (3) (4). Weird, but I guess that’s the work around.

      Enrolling your keys doesn’t work btw, because battlefield checks which keys you enroll, only accepting the default MS keys. Also on the hardware front, it is a big problem for gamers on a sub-300 USD budget these days - the best deals are on legacy hardware or surplus office equipment, mainly AM3-AM4 era.

        The number list is how markdown works. You can enter all 1’s and it will automatically create ordered list.
        Handy when you may need to edit list items, as you dont need to renumber even in plain text.
        Markdown spec should allow for explicit number by using a bracket ‘)’ instead of a dot, but it may not work everywhere.
        Let’s give it a go

        3) start from 3  
        1. Then  
        1. Continue  
        

        3. start from 3

        1. Then
        2. Continue

  You can run more than one OS with secure boot enabled. It’s just a pain in the ass.

  Weird, for me it was just flicking the switch in UEFI and now Grub and trough it Windows 10 and Fedora 43 boot in Secure Boot.
