It is a god send.

Ah, so they don’t actually say that they read kernel space. They check the version of all installed packages and checksum the installed DLLs/SOs.

If the user still has root privileges, this may still not prevent sideloading of kernel modules. Even if it would detect a kernel module that has been sideloaded, I believe it’s possible to write a kernel module that will still be resident after you unload it. This kernel module can then basically do anything without the knowledge of userspace. It could for example easily replace any code running in userspace, and their anticheat would miss that as it doesn’t actually check what code is currently running. Most simply, code could be injected that skips the anticheat.

Of course, in their model, if a user isn’t given root privileges it seems much harder to do anything, then probably the first thing you’d want to look for is a privilege escalation attack to obtain root privileges. This might not be that hard if they for example run Xorg as it isn’t known to be the most secure - there’s a reason there’s a strong recommendation to not run any graphical UI on servers.

Another way if you don’t have root is to simply run the code on a system that does but that does have such a kernel module - or perhaps modify the binary itself to skip the anticheat. I don’t see anything preventing that in their scheme.

I’m having a hard time understanding how this would work. udev will load kernel modules depending on your hardware, and these modules run in kernel space. Is there an assumption that a kernel module can’t cheat? Or do they have a checksum for each possible kernel module that can be loaded?

Also, how do they read the kernel space code? Userspace can’t do this afaik. Do they load a custom kernel module to do this? Who says it can’t just be replaced with a module that returns the “right” checksum?

For example, maybe branching is something you’d like to be able to do without it being a nightmare?

Right, afghans aren’t arabs

TIL that it’s called a charley horse in English

It looks like something out of an early 2000’s game

Services are automatically restarted. There is no automatic reboot by default, but that can be enabled if you really want to. Otherwise it’ll keep track of whether a reboot is necessary or not.

I’ve been running Debian stable with unattended-upgrades on servers for years and have had no issues whatsoever.

As somehow living in that region of Sweden, that was my first thought!

That joke has aged like milk

Not really, they allowed him to run as he’s a nutjob and thought nobody would vote for him, while retaining an illusion of that all sides are available for election. He’s been described as an Iranian Trump. Then surprised pikachu this reformist nutjob gets elected. This is going to be an interesting run.

Ah yes, of course husband is included, I forgot the obvious one :) oh, and siblings should be included too.

Yes, to be specific, according to the Quran women can wear whatever in the presence of “mahram” (close relatives), meaning, parents, grandparents, kids and grandkids iirc.

In Iran, the mahram part is rarely enforced so in practice women can wear whatever inside private homes, no matter the relationship to those present.

Recently, women in Iran are pushing back against the Islamic clothing rules in public and step by step bending the rules. Now, what you actually need to wear vary wildly depending on exactly where in Iran you happen to be. In some parts, typically rich parts of bigger cities, it’s in practice tolerated to wear almost western-style clothing at the moment.

I’m tired of this kind of post, as it shows what a minority of society did in the 70’s, it also simplifies women rights issues in Iran to simply clothing. Although it is a prominent part, there’s much more to it. Things like that in court, a male witness is worth two female witnesses, and men inherit twice as much as women. Rape and sexual harassment is considered the fault of the women for dressing immodestly.

Of course it could be taken today. It looks like it’s taken inside a private home. The clothing laws concern public places.

I expected some resolution or motivation for everything that had occurred, instead we got “God did it”.

It’s just a pity on a great show to have such a bad ending.

I think if they just filled the alt= attribute with the emoji this would copy fine.

Wow, I have TMJ but didn’t know it’s called that. Basically, the jaw joint clicks when eating certain foods. And I have bruxism and occasional tinnitus. Didn’t know the connection, thanks for clearing it up!

I’ve used LyX with good results, it’s a GUI that abstracts away many of the complexities of latex.
