I like to believe this, too, but then I look around.

Giant houses, giant trucks, luxury goods, motorsport toys, boats, guns… the people backing this stuff today are way better off than their parents were. 🤷‍♂️

For $100M/yr why not start your own coffee subsidiary?

You are citing a shift based on these results. I am saying people didn’t turn out for Harris. 🤷‍♂️ That will clearly cause a shift in the results.

Let me know when Trump matches his 2020 support, which even if he did is still a loss given population growth.

The whole country didn’t turn to the right. Trump got fewer votes than in 2020. The problem is fhe left didn’t turn out. Kamala got 13M fewer votes than Biden. 🤷‍♂️

Humanity still doesn’t get germ theory. 🤷‍♂️

This is the real question.

I think the answer is wealth inequality and failing education systems. If we fix the first through better tax practices, we could fix the second, and maybe pay for everyone’s healthcare, too.

I understand.

This person programs. ☝️ 🤝

No, friend, we are upset that you can’t see the reality of being locked into a two party system right now.

Your vote for a third party won’t get you the outcome you want, and is more likely to make it so you can never get the outcome you want.

Lot’s of us want ranked choice voting, among other changes. We definitely will not get that if third party voting results in Republicans winning.

So join us, use your vote pragmatically right now and then tomorrow start working towards reforming our elections.

If you have read and understood all this and you still don’t understand how this current reality works, I am worried you have a reason that you don’t want to understand it.

I have news for you about where the taxes you paid on those burgers went.

Hope everyone is voting!

So let’s win and push for ranked choice.

Their children and children’s children forgot everything.

Mprotect stops any read and write and execute access to memory in both user and kernel lands (only rx or wx). Stuff like web browsers won’t work unless you have a program to mark it in elf to not use pax. However, this kills a lot of exploits with that turned on by itself (though there are probably work arounds if you are developing exploits which the other features would hopefully catch). That’s why people installed 3rd party unmainlined security patches, but that’s just me maybe idk.

I am having a hard time following what this does or why this is desirable. You’re saying there’s a patch this thing provides that … disables memory access … unless a flag is set in an executable … which will then bypass the security?

Client side anti-cheat faces similar issues, and there unlike your server you don’t control the hardware.

There are lots of options such that you can tune your false positive/negative rate. 🤷‍♂️ Tons of ways you can structure this depending on your game’s tech.

There are ways to detect and stop that, but they can and should happen on the server, not on the client.

No it doesn’t. We have any number of free and open source operating systems to choose from that are already more secure. The number of people in a situation where they absolutely need to run Windows specifically is small.

This is already true for the vast majority of games. 🤷‍♂️

Why would anyone want to run unmainlined security patches from a company?

This is how CrowdStrike happened.

This feels like security via business decision which is always the opposite of security. At least this would be open source now? 🤷‍♂️
