    This is more directed at desktop linux, but some solutions around the current kernel anti-cheat systems that lock out linux would be great!

      They will never allow it. Windows itself is only getting more locked down so they will rely on that fact.

      The problem with that is that is hard to experiment with too

      Test devices get banned constantly, and the companies behind those systems really don’t like other companies trying to poke around it

        Yes, I absolutely understand the challenge. It just sucks that corpos have that kind of leverage to keep people on windows. In an ideal world gamers would stop playing League after they go live with their stupid Vanguard BS, but in the end we get some rants on r*ddit and most people still continue playing.

          I’m addicted, man. And I got my friends hooked on the stuff. All I can do is sit with the shame.

    Mine died 9 months out of warranty, last week they told me over the phone that apparently the firmware got corrupted and they have to reprogram it, and it will cost $120 USD + tax + shipping (+ import fees of course). I haven’t heard anything else yet. I sent it off for RMA back on May 7, so it’s been a little while lol
