LemmyLaLibre*points finger* That's bait.
interdimensionalmemePlease install my innocent game launcher, yes of course it needs to be root to install games and prevent cheating. I’ll give you a free game if you install it !
I treat my PC like a console at this point. Don’t use it for anything but gaming because of all the insane stuff games are doing with essentially making you install spyware. Figure I’d give them as little data as I can. I even have it on a separate network that can only communicate with the internet, not the rest of my LAN.
You could probably just use linux with VM in that case. Haven’t tried it myself but that’s should isolate everything you don’t want on your personal system.
MarshReaperIt probably wouldn’t work out for the spyware that doesn’t want you running a VM for “anti-cheating” purposes.
For epicgames it should be good enough but for those annoying games, ig dual boot is the only way. Windows can’t read linux partitions anyway so that should be fine but idk too much abt the capabilities of kernel level stuff so not too sure about that.
I know there are some configurations that manage to disguise themselves as a real machine. I would like to look into that as it could be very useful. At the same time, I also wonder how deep the kernel level whatever go into my personal device.
