I'm not letting a game company have root on my PC. How does that kind of exposure for something as frivolous as gaming even make sense?

- 0x457 11mo agoThat's how gaming on windows work. You're a minority with that opinion.
- paxys 11mo agoSomething that is "frivolous" to you is a passion or even a profession for others. Competitive gaming is a massive market worldwide, and it wouldn't exist without the ability to enforce a level playing field. Not everything has to be a holy FOSS war.
- likeclockwork 11mo ago"holy FOSS war"? Why not have a commissar sit behind every gamer to make sure they're not cheating? That's a startling degree of access to give to these people for access to cosmetic micro-transactions. But, I guess if all your friends are snorting coke in an alley, FOMO will have you right there with them.
- Hikikomori 11mo agoDo you use a separate user to play games? If not it's kinda useless as a user space process can read all your files and memory of running processes of the same user.
