I disagree, with a passion.

It is soooo cluttered, so much useless redundant tags everywhere. Just give JSON or YAML or anything really but XML…

But to each their own i guess.

Investigation team: “We found 2,395 allegations against 800+ abusers”

This thread: how is this shit even news, priests fuck kiddies we know duh

It’s complicated. Technically no, but God can roll out a new image with the updates, so in practice, yes?

Why is religion never simple…

Technically, isn’t this a different thing? Genuinely asking.

There could be a license that forbids use (sort of like the CC no commercial use license) but still allows the code to be reviewed publicly, no?

Can you at least wait for me to die before taking me to hell, Satan?

Not sure if I’m just missing a reference here, but if you choose the pizza you can have both.

I’m so impressed that this is a thing

So the only way to ban dicks is for them to have a PSN account? That ain’t it my brother.

Sony servers, sure, just release a server binary, let others host it and offload all infrastructure costs! Massive savings!

Don’t suck corporate ass man, cmon.

Nah brother. Because it’s in the TOS doesn’t make it OK, and in some cases, even legally enforceable.

Why are you sticking up for some arbitrary shitty corporate decision and feel the need to shift the blame to people who bought, and now supposedly OWN, the game?

I can respect it if you’re doing it for money, we all gotta eat. But if it’s for free, you’re just an ass

It is. It also happens to be undefined, and checking that for truth is how I was bitten.

My dude, you need to understand that all that anger and resentment, it is not you. It’s the years of JavaScript poisoning your mind.

In any case, that goes to my point. I would have to be saved by my IDE, when any sane language will blow up in your face as soon as you try to run it.

I spent way too long today figuring out why my app was doing something that it’s NOT supposed to do on weekends.

I read Luxon’s docs (pretty cool lib tbh) again and again, and tried everything I could think of to get isWeekend to return a sane result.

Turns out I was pulling a somewhat older version of Luxon, where isWeekend didn’t exist. In any sane language, I expect I’d get a huge warning about a property that doesn’t exist, but alas…

Typescript helps me keep my sanity, but juuuuust barely.

Are you the guy who has been posting this same comment every 10 years over the last half century?

(Edit: is joke)

I couldn’t care less about crashes, that’s an end-user problem. But do you expect me to go to sleep while that squiggly line in my IDE??

/s just in case

Yep. It’s the only reason I’m still somewhat sane.

I could point out the ad hominem, but even worse, emojis?! You have zero credibility, scram.

The kernel-level cheats would fall into this category I guess, but cheaters will still be running them. Could anything without the same level access identify them?

and what is their endgame? “Developers are releasing cheats that emualate a mouse. Therefore Riot needs to use a camera to record your hand”?

You mean a device that physically operates the mouse? I don’t know, I don’t work for riot, but this is done in online chess - to participate in some tournaments with money prizes you need 2 webcams.

If everybody is jumping off a roof, so should Riot?

No, the question is if this discussion also cover all other anticheats that use kernel mode, or is here anything that is League-specific?

Isn’t the whole point of anti-cheat to survey the computer? If you aren’t getting anything new, then why even use a kernel-level anticheat?

This is just splitting hairs on semantics, isn’t it? From the moment the app is running in user space, it could collect a huge amount of user info, but it can’t look for kernel-level cheat software.

Note that I don’t play league, I could care less about the game or the developer, I’m just interested in the privacy vs cheating aspect of the conversation.

You could drop the flamebait, but all good.

Not only kernel mode “anticheat” will allow snooping on the current account, but on others too, that’s the key difference here.

Can’t this already be achieved by elevation? Why would a kernel driver be necessary?
