I don't really get why you put 'Others?'

What kind of question is 'Others?' is doesn't even make any sense. It just pisses me off.

It requires an internet connection to adjust the toggle.

The problem is that every day someone "creates" a "new" ffmpeg GUI or similar. There is already a million "ffmpeg GUIs", many of which existed before the advent of AI.

We don't need a thousand copies of a tool which is practially useless, espically when I could of just prompted an LLM for a command for ffmpeg to convert to randomfile.emk3ukz file or whatever. The spam was getting unreal.

The "cheating" problem is overblown.

If all you do is read Reddit threads all day, you'd think the game is unplayable. Although if you actually play the game, the problem is far less extreme than it is made out to be.

Source: 10,000 hours in CSGO/CS2.

Better yet, the launch option -allow_third_party_software effectively by default, puts you into a pool of lower trust factor players.

Trust Factor, despite not being an Anti-Cheat, is arguably one of the best defenses against cheaters (and ultimately toxic players).

It might be, although trust factor has a major outcome of match quality.

I have over 10,000 hours in the game, majority played on official servers with quite a low % of matches impacted by cheaters. The match quality does deteriorate with Premier rating. I noticed a decent jump in cheaters after about 25k rating, although the number is not as much as people like to make it out to be.

Microsoft will shoehorn their Anti-Cheat into the next Xbox project and force it down the throats of Windows 11/Windows 12 users. This will cause game developers to gobble this technology up.

This is the only defense Microsoft has against the growing Linux Gaming crowd. Microsoft forgot how to make good, consumer friendly software.

We should note, this is entirely a Nvidia software imposed limitation, as the hardware can easily handle more, the purpose is to upsell to non-gaming cards.

With that being said, its trivial to bypass with tools like: https://github.com/keylase/nvidia-patch

Regardless, this does throw a spanner in the works for a video based game streaming solution for P2P multiplayer.

Even if they do make people safer "on average" these systems are not tested by a lot of the auto-safety organizations. In fact, some of these organizations simply bump up the "safety rating" automatically depending on how many "safety" features are included, without actually testing the effectiveness of the feature.

This is important, because forward collusion detection is not a binary thing. Each auto maker has their own set of parameters, sensors and implementations to achieve a similar goal, but each act independently.

I would also prefer if people were more engaged with driving too. I don't think we should encourage people to "rely" on these systems to keep them out of trouble as these systems can and do act unpredictably and may harm other road users as a result of a programming decision since the car in front acted unexpectedly.

I think the whole automation of everything in a car is a bit silly. Transmissions are whatever for me, although the full lane assist, cruise control, adaptive cruise control, even automatic wipers and headlights makes people feel so much more disconnected from the car, which I think leads to unsafe habits or worse, unable to handle the car in situations where the automatic systems fail or become unreliable (e.g poor visibility, wet roads, unmapped roads, off-road, obstructions on the road, road works, etc).
