All this does is literally reward everyone who spams cheating reports against the entire server.

Thats the neat part, it doesn't!

What does burst, instead, is the average net worth of Americans / Households.

We are at something like 10 to 15 % of Americans with a negative net worth right now, more debt than wealth.

So, welcome to the semi-formal birth of the debt slave social caste!

Ain't nobody working the farms no more, and indentured servitude is explicitly legal in the US as punishment for a crime.

If your crime is avoiding debt collectors long enough that they file a lawsuit against you, and you don't show up to court, well now you have an active arrest warrant.

And soon, probably also a non voluntary vacation to a semi-local farm.

Ahem, would you believe... budget cuts, rofl?

Realignment of resources with strategic outlook?

Uh... fuck you you're fired, hahaha!

Yeah I mean its not like Valve has been using a combination of server side and client side game file only validation to do AC for Counter Strike for 20 years or anything.

Yep yep yep, the whole industry uses Kernel AC, other than the devs of the longest running competetive FPS franchise ever, yep yep yep!

I offer:

0.2% more effective detection of cheaters (theoretical)

You offer:

Full and total access to every single file on your computer, all of its hardware, and all connected devices, via kernel level access.

Do you accept?

Yep.

Things were better when private servers had actual mods and admins, they acted more like pubs where you could go see the regulars, actually form a community.

I am still baffled that anyone thinks that Kernel AC is any kind of effective at stopping hacks, people have been literally making a living off of defeating it, and selling those hacks / methods for almost a decade now...

But nope, still got hordes of idiot gamers who think they work, think they're necessary, think they can't be spoofed.

Yep, lets go check on the DXY again...

Yep, going down, again.

Down from about 110.2 at about the inauguration, to about 98.3 right now.

Or, Trump has devalued the USD against the other currencies it actually trades against, by about 10.3% in just over 6 months.

Don't get me wrong, Vance is evil...

But this is yet another thing that shows that he actually is among the most intelligent of this clown car of an administration.

He's smart enough to know that whining about a crude joke at his expense is very petty and projects patheticness.

See, he's better at keeping his mask on, his face from sliding off, than Noem is.

Noem's mask is slipping, face melting away just actually in realtime, barely even a metaphor at this point, she is so stupid she doesn't even realize her response was predicted, and is now thus meta-self referential.

Idiot bullies are very easy to trigger when they can't just immediately inflict pain on you as a response, goddamnit this is all so fucking stupid.

It was always projection, they have always been incompetent, corrupt, hateful cowards.

Fascists, but I repeat myself.
