Adding

to smb.conf and restart the service.

If that doesn’t work there are a few other suggestions in the thread.

I just mean that trying to apply the Nazi bar meme to an entire country because people are not immediately surrendering and fleeing the fascists seems kind of counter productive.

Who’s trying to flee? It’s the fascists that have to go

“employers and taxpayers” is like “job creators”.

They don’t want to say “the ultra wealthy” because that would be too accurate for the owner of the site, who is an ultra wealthy person.

This isn’t hyperbole.

Is nothing sacred?

Thems my kinfolk and I’m sure I know which way they vote.

That county is basically rich conservatives and their staff. I’m sure he’ll win more popularity for talking tough.

That’s great, it beats having to buy new hardware!

I’ve waterboarded myself trying to put a dive mask back on underwater. It is not plesant

They’re so young and TikTok brained that the only time they see three sentences strung together is because of ChatGPT.

If you want it to still be steam OS and compatible with games then you couldn’t use kernel.org kernels that’s the point.

If a person stands to make a lot of money figuring out how to use a regular, non-anticheat kernel then they will do it. It would be a lot less difficult to do when the kernel code is open source.

For anti-cheats, it isn’t the case, as with Windows, where you can semi-trust that the kernel isn’t lying. If an anti-cheat runs and wants to see what DMA devices are connected it uses the kernel to do that and it trusts that the kernel isn’t lying. You could trivially modify the Linux kernel’s source code to not list a specific card when asked by a kernel module.

He’s just being pedantic.

Technically ‘ls’ has kernel access because it depends on system calls in order to produce its output.

System calls are the mechanisms through which programs request services from the Linux kernel, allowing them to perform tasks like file management, process control, and device management. Any program that’s running on your machine has the access required to make syscalls and so you could say they have access to the kernel. They won’t have kernel-level privileges, so they can’t act as the kernel, but they do have access. Obviously the original user was referring to kernel anti-cheat modules which act as the kernel with all of the same privileges.

The language about collecting and using data have been in TOSs for basically every online service since the early '00s.

I’m not saying that this is okay. The data that these services collect, which we’ve given them unlimited rights to, has only become more valuable and the incentives for these companies are always for them to gather more data about you.

You can use archive.org if you want to look at older policies from the same company. But, if you pull up any other game with an online component you will see that they all are essentially “Don’t cheat our services or hide your identity, We’re going to collect your data and use it how we want, and you have to enter into binding arbitration” with various levels of detail and verbosity.

Oh yeah, that’s way better. Thanks!

I’m using zsh and trying the emacs mode, that alt operates on words is the secret sauce I was looking for.

root@desktop:/# chown -R user:user / home/user
root@desktop:/# 

e: sidenote. if you’re using markdown for codeblocks you can add the language name after the first three backticks to change the syntax highlighting in the codeblock. TIL

Is there an emacs key to ‘delete this entire word’?

like if I’m using ls to look for a file, then I want to cat a file, I press up to get the previous command, ctrl+a to go to the beginning of the line and then spam d to delete letters. It’s be much better if there was a ‘delete until whitespace’ button.

“The only acceptable bigotry is my bigotry” is the theme of social media.

I saw a pretty highly upvoted thread where they were trying to brainstorm new slurs. But it’s okay since they were targeting people that use AI and since those people are unpopular then it’s okay to be bigoted assholes against them. /s

I’m sure I believe a lot of nonsense from reading the Internet.

That’s okay, we’re just human. The problem is when people try to ‘inform’ people of things that they ‘know’ from reading social media. That’s how these situations are created, so many people believe this because so many other people believe it and then repeat it as fact without themselves ever checking.

It’s like a feedback loop of ignorance, caused entirely by people who care more about getting social credit for talking and less about saying things that are true.

The point is that the license agreement for this game and others owned by this company didn’t say this shit before, and now they do.

That’s just not true.

Here’s a Reddit user trying the same kind out outrage farming 7 years ago using Take 2’s TOS and implying it allows spyware: https://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/8naopt/take_two_a_spyware_apocalypse/

If you look at Valve’s TOS or any other game developer who has games with an online component, you will see the exact same language regarding data collection. The language being added is to comply with laws, like the GDPR, which requires specific language indicating what data is collected and how it is used.

The data that is being collected is the same as it was 10 years ago. There’s nothing new here, just a YT video that got a lot of views and social media being full of people who don’t fact check anything.
