Good News! EA Is Expanding Its Anti-Cheat to ARM64, and Linux Could Be Next

Javelin, their kernel-level anti-cheat solution, might be heading to Linux.

It's FOSS

This poses some problems since it's going in the kernelspace. I think at this point we should have parallel kernels running like virtualisations or like this one :

(The Linux, kerf etc repos in this)

As like always the community will come up with a method to solve this I hope 💪🔥
But there's an OS which have a feature to potentially solve these. It's NixOS.

NixOS have this feature called specialisation which is used for some minor/major alterations to ur OS config at boot entry. So that u don't have to dual boot 2 #Linux OS for different purposes. Eg: One for normal use, one for gaming/whatever purpose
The customisation difference could be changing from apps to even kernels if u wish.
The most awesome thing is it won't take extra storage like running 2 os. It only takes extra space for the extra config/apps u add.

IMO it's one such really underrated feature of the NixOS. Imagine same #OS but very little extra storage for a different setup like #gaming, office, #mobile OS(in future maybe) etc all without dual or triple booting multiple OS🔥💪
More such use cases too. Like I want a specialisation with #cachyos #linux #kernel some options tweak for performance use case etc etc

Power of #declarative OS. And it's just one of the features of this awesome OS😁. The ecosystem is growing too
