Well yeah they are public? Lemmy is indexed by Google. I imagine everything on here is as well.

This is a really interesting and actually useful application of AI. I’m all for it.

It’s essentially why people have moved away from server side rendering.

It is way less resource intensive to send just the data and let the client do the rendering. Both in data transfer and compute.

QBasic was my first language when I started learning around the turn of the century. I remember it being super accessible even with the limited learning resources of the time.

The obvious problem is that I would have been quicker to write the function yourself than the examples.

I use the ai daily at work. But more as an interactive docs and refactoring tool.

Yeah for sure. Used to be absolutely critical back when things like java in websites was a thing haha

If you’re trying to save as many games as possible and the vast majority are on windows it completely does.

The problem is it’s a tiny fraction of games and users. It’s a lot of resources for little gain.

Semi auto properties and params collection are long overdue. Great to see them in there.

System.Text.Json respecting nullability is also great. But may break some things if you didn’t realise you were relying on the old behaviour.

LoggerMessage source gen using primary constructors fixes a minor pain.

EF generating SQL at compile time is also pretty sweet. Better query performance from precompiled and better startup performance from not having to precompile at runtime.

All in all it looks pretty good.

Not back peddling you are misunderstanding what kernel access means.

You don’t need kernel level access (the thing we are literally discussing) to kill processes. Which was literally your example.

Obviously the OS handles it. How the fuck else would it work?

It is literally installed by choice. It’s part of the game installation. It’s up to users to know what they are installing. Many games likely install lots of things that aren’t immediately obvious.

It doesn’t infiltrate the system.

Pretty much all code is making requests to the kernel. That isn’t what is happening here.

It’s side stepping the kernel. That’s the whole point. You don’t know what you’re talking about.

Would be completely illegal in countries with gdpr. I’m a programmer and can tell you every company takes that super seriously.

You have to agree to be tracked. Most people just do it without thinking.

Nah words have meaning. I get you don’t like it but that doesn’t make it spyware or malware.

Spyware isn’t about watching your system or memory it’s about stealing personal information.

These anti cheats specifically comply with privacy laws or they wouldn’t be allowed. You won’t find any breaking any laws.

Anti virus and anti malware applications do the same. Doesn’t make them spyware.

I’m a programmer I understand what they are. I understand why they suck.

Stopping processes is actually a user space action. You can do it without admin rights btw. Even if it popped the admin screen that’s still not a kernel level action.

Asking the kernel to do something is basically all operations and not the same as kernel level access.

Yeah that it’s considered malware. I did Google it and there’s nothing saying that.

No it’s literally not what malware is. Otherwise anti virus would be. And anti malware haha

It’s literally none of those things mentioned.

You are doing massive mental gymnastics. Intentionally nasty for an anit cheat is just stupid. You 100% know that’s not what that means.

It also doesn’t invade, damage, disable or take control of the system.

Just because you don’t like it doesn’t make it malware.

How do they steal your data? They also said malware

I’m sure they did and it’s not. Malware isn’t defined by its privileges but what it does.
