Windows 8.1 was great, you just have to enable the start button and disable Metro. It's basically a faster Windows 7.

I'm sorry but that doesn't seem logical. If you don't care about general good state of things, why would you care about the majority? People refer to democracy as a good thing because the US showed how it improves the system, lives etc.

The equality aspect itself is what I'd like to support. But when you find the majority being uneducated to understand what they are doing - something is going wrong with our assumptions about how things should work. An idiot should not be highly respected. A criminal should not have the power over people's lives. These things should have been more basic than democracy principles in everyone's mind, no?

That reasoning is missing a crucial part: even if you're fucked anyway, why is it still okay to put a criminal in charge? Will it improve anything? Or do we think of the "fucked" condition very differently?

Or maybe your expectations from ai detection are too high.

Developers have full control over servers in most cases. A viable server side anti cheat should be a thing. For every case of "client sending false data to server" we can come up with a solution to verify that to some degree. Finally, it should help a lot to rely on player generated reports and utilize replay recording on server.

But no, developers will continue to rely on 3rd party solutions (made by people who never developed a game), even infect their co-op-only games with it, and complain "uh oh we can't handle Linux cheaters".

That one was hardly legal, not sure about "safe".

What's more interesting is that DRM developers don't have enough experience with game development. They have no idea how the game code should really work for everyone to not be affected by something that is injected inside (and they are injecting a lot - some executables get inflated by more than 1 gb I think).

That's also a lie. There is no way it would be impossible to remove the protection code (or parts of it) or make it not execute. That alone makes him a clown.

They’ll adjust their usage downwards if other apps need the memory.

If it really works that way (which I doubt) then I don't want my apps to spend resources on constantly monitoring the RAM situation.
