“As experienced software engineers” highlights the problem with many CAD solutions. People who design physical “thingies” professionally are generally not software engineers.

We of course need a viable solution as an open source product but a lot of this is recreating the wheel without any knowledge of how the wheel is being used or why it is even useful to begin with. So you essentially end up with a knock off version of the wheel that doesn’t work the way someone who is experienced with wheels expects it to work.

They use only the best pixels!

The modern version looks ass.

There are no plans to support Proton or Linux. It’s a vector for cheat developers, and one that would be poorly maintained by both us and EAC due to the low user base. When we stopped support for Linux, we saw more cheat users exploiting Linux, than actual legitimate users.

When monitoring cheats for Rust, we keep a close eye on wider cheat communities across several major games. We look at what cheat developers are doing, and how other studios are responding.

From that experience, I’m very comfortable saying that if a game supports Proton or Linux, they’re not serious about anti-cheat. The only exception would be if they have a fully mature, dedicated in-house anti-cheat team, even then, I’m not seeing anyone handle Proton and Linux well.

Apex Legends also dropped Proton support in October 2024 for the same reasons as we did several years ago.

Could we limit Proton to Premium servers? yes, but I think it’s total bullshit asking Proton users to buy the game and then $15 worth of DLC. I’d be pissed if I were forced to do that.

When we stopped supporting Linux, users made up less than .01% of the total player base, even if that number has doubled, or tripled, it’s not worth it.

I know that every time I post something like this, some Proton and Linux users call us lazy or dismissive. The reality is that fighting cheaters on one front (Windows), is already a never-ending battle. Adding more fronts multiplies that challenge without adding meaningful benefit to the wider player base.

I think it’s even worse than that. It’s just a gym sock with a slit cut down the middle to form the straps.

You could make one of these for like a dollar. And some spare time. Probably even cheaper if you already have an old gym sock laying around.

But the part we always forget is that the robber was the “cop” that had come to the house the night before the trip.

So this kid was like the cops are so corrupt I have to deal with this on my own.

This is possible you just need a version of VIM that was compiled with the clipboard feature enabled.

They are actually fineliner pens.

I haven’t used this specific brand so can’t say how good these are. But there are plenty of brands that make similar products they are available in assorted colors and tip sizes.
