   #EA has confirmed that #Battlefield 6 will be completely unplayable on #Linux systems, including #SteamDeck, due to its new kernel-level anti-cheat system, “EA Javelin,” which explicitly blocks Linux. This move is a slap in the face to the growing #Linuxgaming community, especially considering how far compatibility has come with #Proton and #SteamOS.

   Worse yet, EA is using open-source tech like the #GodotEngine in parts of the game, while denying access to the very platforms that champion #opensource. It’s hypocritical and #anticonsumer.

   There’s no option to disable #anticheat for #singleplayer or #privateservers, meaning users who value #privacy or #freedom of platform are locked out entirely.

   It's a hostile decision rooted in control, not security.

   Privacy is a marathon, not a sprint.

   It's common to be overwhelmed by the constant attacks on privacy we read about every day, and to burn out trying to fix every problem all at once.

   This is by the attackers' design, of course. Big tech companies and governments want to paralyze you with choices and actions, so you give up on the fight entirely.

   It's okay to take a breath, clean up slowly, and train yourself over the long-term to improve your data privacy health over time.

   @noondlyt TBH people with lived experience of prison *should* be in charge until prisons can be abolished entirely.

   It's his fascist philosophy that's the problem.

   @thomasfuchs Not what one would usually think of but: genealogy.

   Automatically transcribing scanned documents and making them searchable changed the field entirely.

   It led to a bunch of countries tightening and refining their citizenship-by-descent laws and adding cutoffs like "only born before 2000," as so many more people now can discover the nationality of their ancestors.

   @lightweight I'm stuck with Discord simply because of who's on it. I want to use Matrix instead, but convincing retro streamers (some are friends) to move is impossible. I already cut them off when I left Twitter, and leaving Discord means cutting them off almost entirely.

   It's the same reason people don't leave YouTube or Twitter. I don't like it, but I do understand why people don't just leave. They're leaving *people* behind when they do it. It's not like switching browsers.

   @yoz You are correct! I just built and (stealth) deployed an entire thing in just over an hour - nothing that I wasn't capable of, but the effort involved in the scaffolding and boilerplate probably would have put me off bothering entirely.

   It probably would have been faster if it hadn't been for having to track down really annoying bugs...
