I think the funniest implication here is that he seems to think he is somehow superior to us mere Linux simpletons for playing fucking Fortnite. Or League.

and let's not forget, he also gets the privilege of having Valorant's anticheat looking through everything he does on his computer. You know, just in case.

Let's let that marinate for a moment, because I truly do think that invasive kernel anticheat is something that people will be really kicking themselves over accepting somewhere down the road in this, the modern digital panopticon, the dying days of privacy. This individual seems to wholeheartedly and truly believe, that it is somehow the superior, intelligent choice to use an OS that will allow random software companies (that are not your hardware or OS vendor) to take complete control of your computer with the pinky swear they won't do anything untoward with that access. For a fucking video game. (Sometimes, one you paid actual money for!) Especially now, in the days of forced arbitration clauses and constant corporate data breaches. "no no, guys, you see, you have to let our ~~malware~~ anti-cheat have kernel access because we can't be fucked to actually employ humans to moderate the game nor hire another anti-cheat vendor that actually knows how to detect cheats without getting all up in your OS's guts (they do exist, you know), I sweeeeaaaarrrrrr nothing bad will happen!"

Oh yeah, he's a genius alright. I shudder in the presence of such brilliance. (no one tell him, it'll be funnier)
