        afaik no, at least not like this just yet. which i find super ironic, as it’s one of their main claimed reasons to block linux off of their shitty games.

        i wonder if we’d need wine to be patched for this in addition to the kernel, or how long it would take for someone to cook something up.

    Huh, I never made the connection that denuvo is from Irdeto, who also provide one of the widely used pay-TV DRM schemes

    They don’t address the elephant in the room (voices38). Does that mean piracy won once again?

    The article mentions that there are performance penalties to running hypervisor cracks in a VM with GPU passthrough, but if you’re dual-booting barebones Arch (just enough to get a VM running), is there really a significant performance loss?

    And once you have that set up on a separate boot, then it should be safe and fairly efficient to set up a bunch of these hypervisor cracks, I’d expect.

    I don’t care enough or have time to tinker with this myself, but that sounds like a more fun project than actually playing one of these AAA games, lol.

          And who the fuck said they aren’t??? What the hell kind of strawman is that? What does it even have to do with any of this?

          AI companies aren’t pirating art, they’re using publicly available art commercially without a license which is definitely some sort of contravention though I’m not sure what exactly it is.
