When you have cloud providers growing faster than the region's grid capacity, something has to give ... throttle growth there, or plan for mega growth? I guess it helps that nuclear is green again. ๐

I love how some people think that other people can't do purposeful humour. ๐
edit: I can imagine that some folks could see malintent in the studio's timing, but most understand that life is full of boring coincidences. This post just lent itself well to the joke. Muha.
In some countries private law firms chase down infringers on behalf of copyright holders. They then attempt shakedowns with the threat of legal action if you don't pay. They have a financial interest to catch people, and moral compasses vary.
Also, mistakes can happen (you, your family, guests using your wifi, in the courts, in the ISPs, in the law firms, in the tech they are using to identify people). Shit happens.
And if (when) it happens, then you would still have to deal with it, costing you time and money.
Understand the risks and make choices to minimize them if you can.
"... and we will break any mods that attempt it! Muhahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.. hah.."
Apparmor profiles can be applied to an executable - the profile is then (if so configured) inherited by subprocesses. In my case I have a launch script to run lutris in a safe mode. It also changes the effective gid to be matched by some iptables rules (it was easier than creating a new network namespace, which is also possible). The script then checks that the Internet is inaccessible and that reading/writing to secured paths is denied before launching lutris.
Similarly I have a "safe" script to wrap other commands with an apparmor profile that stops most writes to my homedir/reads from some secure locations, which I often use to run scripts/programs from the Internet.
My sudo also requires a password (or a special keyboard combination, thanks to a custom pam configuration).
All that said and done, I'm sure I'll be caught off guard one day.
I can now train a generative voice on my own voice and have it sing along to my own generative music.
A few more tweaks to make it consistently off key and it will be near indistinguishable! I will be able to torture not just my children, but my great-grandchildren, far into the future.
What an age.
I run a particular online windows game in a modded offline mode under Linux in network isolation and with a restricted apparmor profile. So far so good. Logs show no attempts to break out, except for the smoke test I run to ensure the sandbox is working. This is as much because of the random mods I install as the original devs (who could ban my online account).
On Windows, a VM would indeed be safer. GPU passthrough is possible .. I guess easier with Windows using an onboard GPU, then passing a discrete GPU to the VM. You'll lose some performance with a VM regardless, but it's easy to disable networking, back up and restore from a known good state, and burn it to the ground when needed.
Look into xmodmap.
Probably not your issue, but high dpi mice and some wine games don't mix well. I bought a cheap low dpi usb mouse after discovering this.
Your friends will find you wherever you are and will continue asking you such questions. There is no escape.
As a primary Linux user who wrote his own X tool to do exactly this and has been missing this functionality on Mac - thank you!
I'll send my unpublished code your way soon. It's just Go, relying on the WM (run command shortcuts) to call it. Move+Resize and Focus functionality.
It won't work on Wayland, which seems to require native compositor support - labWC is halfway there.
