Truscape

They did say and/or steamdeck, and specifically called out Wine and Proton, so I presume the changes are OS agnostic. It's just the steamdeck has become synonymous with Linux gaming in the public eye.

Those are valid concerns, but I don't see any reason to believe that a hybrid approach for handling the two ecosystem couldn't be possible. As mentioned by their discord posts, their patches to the game are directly parsed by CodeWeavers, and options for server-sided anticheat or a Valve-style "Trust Factor" are both on the table.

I could also see this being beneficial regardless of the eventualities because of the barrier of entry - novice or less tech savvy users who wish to remain on the Windows platform and desire to cheat could be more deterred (or caught) by the kernel level anticheat. On the other side of the aisle, linux users could be targeted with a Trust Factor or higher level of User-space scrutiny, given a lower likelihood for running an excessive amount of background processes (compared to Windows).

Wow. Integrity. Nice to see!

I doubt any of the unit want to be assigned janitorial duty lol

One of my old Ukranian friends joked that was the motto of Eastern European history.

Honestly the crux of the issue seems to be what I've learned from my experiences working and studying as an engineer:

The devil(s) sign the best paychecks, no one else.

As an engineering undergraduate, the best economic incentive (which is what humans tend to follow) once I graduate is not to work in areas that could possibly make the world a better place (like infrastructure, public services, etc...), but to work at places that make the world a worse place (AI R&D, Military-Industrial Complex, Data/Survailence Capitalism firms, so on).

I am fully aware that any place I work for in those fields will guaranteed make the world a worse place, but I don't have many alternatives in my area.

In Silicon Valley (the place where I live, grew up, and am studying), you are granted these 3 choices once you graduate:

• Work for the devil (aforementioned fields), and reap the paycheck, benefits, living in a home instead of an apartment...
• Work to make the world a better place for everyone, but be unable to afford anything but apartments, and face difficulties in hiring, alongside being locked in to your position on the social ladder...
• Move out, finding somewhere that will hopefully will take you for your skills as a fresh graduate, that you can live in and hopefully make the world a better place.

For almost everyone around me in my studies, the choice is obvious. When I ask my family members, the choice is also obvious. There is no need to worry about the world around you, because you need to secure your own future, so nobody I've asked cares in the end.

In a way, both sides are right: Theoretically, nobody could work to make the world a worse place, and everyone could make the world a better place, and the opposite can be true.

But right now, with the cards we're dealt in our society, things will always be unbalanced, and it's hard to blame most individuals for their choices.

Artist never misses!

Nice job, partner!
