  Some of it does, some of it doesn’t, the critique is that kernel level stuff is way more than needed against most cheaters but not enough against the most dedicated ones, and it is invasive as hell.

  The best anticheat is good netcode and server side checks. You can’t wallhack if your client doesn’t see behind the walls.

  I mean I’d rather have someone called a bitch than a kid being “smacked so hard”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Funny ⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I can somewhat understand but of course not support that mindset.

  Imagine if you held it as an axiom that “being gay is bad for you”. Then it becomes similar to addiction in their eyes, some people are more susceptible, some people are less, but it is the role of community to keep people away from indulging as it is bad for you. The choice that is presumed by them is not one of identity, but one of indulgence, the alternative they have is not “be straight”, but “don’t do gay things”, so they want people to do what normal people call “staying in the closet”.

  For them, a gay person is like a crack addict saying “but being a crackhead is not a choice, I was born with it, and this is how I want to live my life”. And they fear to let their children next to this gay person the same way you’d be apprehensive of a crack addict, because they might give your kids crack and make them crack addicts too. And if you tell them that their kids might be gay too is like a crack addict telling you your kids might like crack too; well of course they might, but it’s bad for you so you shouldn’t do it.

  Now of course society should stay out of our bedrooms, but that is an axiom held by us, but not by them. And partisan politics of course likes to keep these divisions up so that you vote for the one side, they vote for the other, and nobody questions why can’t we just live our lives in peace.

  Don’t give up your dreams, it’s shit everywhere, you might as well do something that interests you while getting fucked by the system like the rest of us.

  Option two is to do tech pretend-work for some big corpo for six figures, and check out of the workforce and find fulfillment somewhere else.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨do they hate money now for some reason??⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Shareholders are interested in share prices and dividends, not volume or even revenue or profits,

  They should be correlated, but look at Tesla.

  I decided to finally do my masters in biotech after a decade in data engineering got me to have some savings, mostly because I did want to do one eventually.

  Man, these kids don’t know what’s waiting for them. None of the companies in biotech are hiring, as in their career pages are empty. LinkedIn, Indeed and the usual suspects only throw up listings which are obviously just staffing orgs fishing for data to sell. I feel there is a similar break in the industry with the pandemic, nobody is hiring people just graduating, the barest minimum is 5-6 years of experience.

  I’m seeing some of the best minds in Europe here, doing something that is both hard and useful science, I mean we just had a worldwide pandemic and this masters should be extremely relevant for that, and apparently the system will not let them work in their field.

  Only way out is academics, on barely-decent, you-will-never-have-a-house-much-less-a-family wages. If they can get in to the limited number of exceptionally “well” paying PhD slots, for 40-45k gross. They may earn as much as me doing random bullshit internal tooling two years ago for a bank that went bankrupt since if they can get tenure as a full prof at a good uni in like 30 years of hard work.

  This is bullshit.

  Oh, I was mixing it up with a dietitian it seems

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨true friend⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I guess that is the specific doctor you need to see if you are having nutrition problems, with symptoms like being over or underweight.

  So the average person should probs see one in their life.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨He is cooked⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Back in my kid days, SMS was too expensive to just text around. If you had a prepaid card, the provider would offer to send one asking for a callback if you ran out of balance. We would use these to communicate, like after school one callback SMS was “yeah I’m coming to hang out” two was “no time today, sorry”.

  The upside is that when 3rd party messengers and wifi became a thing, everyone ditched SMS, so the green bubble / blue bubble Apple insanity is a non-starter since nobody uses iMessage anyway. Also no peer pressure to buy iPhones from it.

  We also used to send memes to each other by infra port, we would hide the phones in someone’s desk next to each other, one meme transfer took a whole class.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Founder of Arkane Studios: "I think Gamepass is an unsustainable model that has been increasingly damaging the industry for a decade"; impacts sales⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah but on the other hand the dumping business model where you sell stuff below cost to kill competition has been a staple of Silicon Valley.

  Amd I’d rather the studio earn more money than the publisher in any case.

  I am not dissing the phone, if I was in the market it would be a no-brainer, I am just interested in what a new phone could give me and when should I plan to switch.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fairphone 6 Teardown: Proof Phones Don’t Have to Be Disposable⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  As an FP4 owner, what is the point of getting an upgrade? I don’t use my smartphone beyond calls and texts and a Lemmy app and listening to music.

  What can you do on a new phone that you can’t do on an old phone?

  Honest question, I’m not being facetious.

  It might get the EU to make a law.

  This is not just a random petition, it has legal force to compel the EU to officially hear the issue.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is WW3 more likely to accelerate or slow down anthropogenic climate change?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It has been tried many times in history since the first tanks. I wonder if modern battery tech makes it more feasible than it was 100 years ago.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is WW3 more likely to accelerate or slow down anthropogenic climate change?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There are hybrids, even in WWI there were French tanks with hybrid drivetrains, then WWII Germans also had super-heavy stuff with hybrid engines, and the AbramsX is supposed to also be like that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is WW3 more likely to accelerate or slow down anthropogenic climate change?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The tools that would kill enough humans to matter would hurt the biosphere much worse than it hurts humans. Otters and bees don’t have gas masks and nuclear shelters.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is WW3 more likely to accelerate or slow down anthropogenic climate change?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No, because after the war we’ll need to start rebuilding stuff we just destroyed, so the people remaining will increase their emissions many times. Also, hypernormalisation after a war might just render public opinion towards climate change indifferent.

  So imagine if the problem was deforestation and people heating with chopped wood. War means that we’ll burn all their wooden houses down, and then see them cut down even more trees to rebuild them.

  Also, large wars cause baby booms.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nexus Mods are set to introduce adult mod age verification for UK and EU users soon⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There are no current EU age verification laws on file, the DSA does not require anything like it. There is a solution in the pipe which lets people verify their ages without giving away personal info in the pipe, but it’s not even close to being implemented.

  So what the hell, Nexus Mods?
