Valve are very mouth shut about AC, which is for the best. They also have trust factor, which is a rating given to your account based on many factors across Steam, to try and predict if you are trustworthy, so it will match you with other trusted accounts.

Literally makes no difference, its cat and mouse. Still rampant cheating on Valorant. BattlEye, EAC all the same.

Prevention has proven pointless. In my opinion the best way to combat cheaters is machine learning, non-intrusive and can get increasingly effective.

I think VAC is the best. It will be interesting to see how VACnet develops with the AI boom now.

There's no place for anti-cheat or other restrictions in co-op games. Sea of Thieves is PvPvE though, so anti-cheat does make sense, even if it won't stop cheating.

Anti-cheats are only small hurdles for cheaters and invasive software for regular consumers.

I was playing devil's advocate to that, implying they are not killer features. TV gaming is generally consoles, which are all 60fps in 99% of cases anyway.

TVs with actual new panels or features are far too expensive for people to consider, when their current ones already do the job.

And most TVs will work just fine for that.

For gaming you are better off with a proper monitor.

Linux's looks more blurry to me, Window's is much sharper. Maybe at different resolutions it changes though, you need less aliasing at higher res.

No, Windows has good font rendering actually. It's very much just a Firefox issue on Windows.

I've accidentally fell into a Linux space, my bad! This will work on Windows, I'm not sure of alternatives on Linux, I gave up using it before I could play around with Firefox.

Try looking for aliasing options under gfx.font_rendering and trying them out.

They are waiting outside the town with more sand and their wallets open!
