Gonna skip most of your response because you fail to understand that barriers to entry in these area continue falling and are unstoppable. You will have to address this.

Thanks for the discussion, but I don't think there is much more that you and I could discuss productively here.

About 3 days. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ Edit: for clarity, I haven't heard this song in a long while now, those 3-ish days were right after they saw it.

Every dad can decide their own ROI for this. ๐Ÿคฃ

THAT'S NOT HOW IT GOES, DAD!

... Oh? It doesn't?

Whenever they would start singing it, I would sing

Cha-cha-cha-lava, La-la-la-chicken!

back at them until they got annoyed enough that they stopped.

I do have some understanding of how both local and server-side cheat detection work.

How do you think processing of video output streams downstream from the output port with usb input assistance back into the PC should best be detected client-side, for example?

[โ€“] andyburke@fedia.io 4 points 5 days ago

You misunderstand a few key things about the points I made, I think. In particular the bit about not being able to trust the client that it is running the code you think it is.

Citation needed.

Not sure how or why MY cpu is supposed to do the work a company should do to provide a decent online experience. Especially when the server, where all the clients are coordinated, is the best place to analyze the data stream for anomalies. Not to mention you just cannot ever trust the client to be running the the code it says it is on the hardware it says it is. The server is where anti-cheat has always belonged. (And tbh just sending the right data to the right clients would win half the fucking battle.)

Actually, it's probably management who won't right-size budgets.

Fuck.

keep your anticheat code off my cpu and on the server where it belongs.

wtf.

why is this so fucking hard for developers to understand?

Know what you're getting into if you follow this dude.

What is the change in the percentage of earth's surface being farmed over that time?

I am skeptical that we are using enough more land to account for this.

Climate and chemicals seem more likely to me, but your idea is interesting if there is data to back it up.

This, but OP, I think, pointed to the issue maybe without realizing it:

If you feel you are just a.cog in a capitalist machine and not a citizen of a country, why would you celebrate?

It feels like Fox news and all the wedge issues have done their work and destroyed our sense of collective citizenship. Now the GOP is doing their corporate owners' bidding.
