Uhh, no… It’s because that’s not how anything works. There’s so many flaws in your argument, but here’s just one: if an enemy player is really well camouflaged but technically visible, then they would be rendered on the client side, but a human player would have to be very observant to spot them and kill them.

A cheater can replace the enemy character’s texture so that, on their screen, the enemy’s camouflage is useless and the player can spot them with no effort.

From everything the server can see, the cheater’s gameplay is legit. They could just be really good at spotting enemy camouflage. Only by looking at the client side render output, you can spot the cheat.

Unless the server is actually rendering the game for each player (which, spoiler alert, isn’t the case), most cheats are not detectable nor preventable on the server side.

While I agree with you (and upvoted to match), I also acknowledge that not every game is suited for that kind of server structure. Competitive ranked games, that rely on a fair matchmaking algorithm and consistent server performance, simply can’t just route matchmaking players to a random community-hosted server. And communities can’t really form that way, either.

Or to make it short, esports can’t do this while maintaining their esport status. And those are the games that need anti-cheat the most.

Me personally? I don’t even like those kinds of games. I barely play multiplayer games at all, and when I do it’s because I’m playing with friends, and couldn’t care less about my rank (if I even get one). So for my kinds of games/scenarios, community or self-hosted servers are the obvious choice with zero drawbacks. But I can still acknowledge that it’s not a solution for all cases.

Lo and behold, most multiplayer games do run on Linux!

here you go 🗝️

But it’s not a sea, it’s an ocean. There is a difference!

I disagree, sounds like a perfect item.

I was not looking for any kind of fight and I actually did suspect you knew. I was just hopping on the opportunity to mock Master Lock, since I know they make some of the worst locks on the market.

Full disclosure: I have zero lock picking skills. I probably couldn’t pick this lock if I tried.

It’s a master lock, it won’t give you as much practice time as you hope.

I’ve seen this meme a ton of times, especially recently, and I have no idea where is from.

Switched WiFi backend to wpa_supplicant by default for new installations, improving compatibility with various WiFi networks

Fantastic. The only reason I enabled developer options is to switch this, since I wasn’t able to connect to my university’s wi-fi otherwise.

Known issue: Existing installations will continue to use iwd unless manually enabled in Developer Settings

Damn.

I actually read waterlemons right, but I read the second line wrong.

It’s the background of only one page of many in the passport. I’m sure someone has noticed this, but I can easily believe that anyone who’s noticed never bothered to make a big deal out of it, so it never became widely known. If it were me, I’d probably just show a friend, we’d share a laugh (or a mock) and that would be the end of it. Even if I wanted to make the whole world know, I don’t really have a way to make that happen short of posting on social media and hoping it gets picked up - which is, presumably, what the Reddit OP did.

I don’t know either. This is reposted from reddit, and no one there even thought to ask. However someone did link to the photographer’s page on facebook and another user claims to have checked a real passport and confirm it, but this is the internet (and worse, reddit) so take it with a grain of salt. If this is true, it’s possible that the reddit OP is the first person to publicize this.

Add lemmy’s icon to this too.

Bought it on Switch, played a bit and never got that far.

Bought it on GOG too, played even less. It’s cool that save sync works between them.

I, too, hope to start over and actually play it through this time. I’m definitely going to like it, it’s just hard to get in the habit of playing it and it’s not the kind of game you can just casually launch every couple of months.

The first one looks ever so sightly wider to me, but their shape is exactly the same otherwise and it would be impossible to notice if no one told me

Thanks, I needed that clarification. But I’m still not super sure what I’m looking at… is the skin in the second panel supposed to belong to the huge dragon in the first panel? It doesn’t make sense. Presumably there’s a huge body attached to that head, the shapes just don’t make sense.

Yes, that’s Katy Perry from April last year: https://www.bbc.com/news/videos/cly57zxevg7o

But more to the point, it’s a popular(-ish) meme format for when you have to go do something you hate (or end up hating) and then you’re so freaking happy to be back to your comfort zone. I.e. exactly how it’s used in this post. Who she is and the whole backstory of how it happened is really not important, I believe the feeling she was conveying is real, even if the act of actually kissing the ground was just a stunt for the camera.

There are better things to be angry about.
