your phone isn't safe from anyone unless it's been restarted since last unlocked, and is reasonably new. they have exploits for after it's been unlocked incl while things are pinned

you realize they're more than just your picture on a screen, right? there's a whole public key private key verification process that happens, which covers your photo and personal info, at least from what I understand of ISO 18013-5.

if anything it should be almost impossible to make a fake mobile id, barring exploits in reader software or the govt leaking their private key.

I assume that's just the actual vegetable, Google translate says that's correct

yeah. stopping support helps end it, but in russia's favor

but stability isn't something that would drive a gentoo user away either.

a lot of the draw of gentoo from what I saw was being able to configure everything down to how it gets compiled. it's simple to apply a patch to a package before it gets built or maintain a custom kernel config in nixos, as well as all the advantages of declarative os

that is a can of Folgers. I'd argue that incriminating a kitchen scale in the process makes it even worse

podman works on windows hosts, as long as you don't need windows containers

I've never used it but this one seems like the most complete currently, and it'll tell you which tests fail.

[–] brian@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago (5 children)

even with cpu passthrough some things are still emulated. you can run a vm detector and see for yourself what tests fail.

it may not affect your games but others should still be careful since it is a real issue, and people do get banned for it.

proton has support for quite a few kernel level anti cheat now, although it has to be explicitly allowed by the dev. needs to be run via steam I think, but you can add non steam games if you got them elsewhere

machine id isn't necessarily the important part. anticheat and vm detection check a lot of different heuristics incl hard to defend against things like timing attacks on particular cpu instructions. there's a handful of open source versions if you're curious

the state of texas agrees
