MS really painted themselves into a corner with their platform backwards compatibility; there are a lot of core components like this that should really be totally reworked but can't without forcing app developers to rewrite large chunks of their programs -
2021-12-18 at 3:32 PM UTCIt really was, Fit. I didn't play hypixel for a week and still am not back in the minecraft swing after this BS I'm not risking getting ass fucked for a fucking block game. What the fuck MICROSOFT???

2021-12-18 at 9:43 PM UTCi think there has been at least 4 patches within the last 10 days since the CVE was released, each time they "fix" this vulnerability, someone else figures out another way to bypass the patch.
also If a string substitution is attempted for any reason on the following string, it will trigger an infinite recursion, and the application will crash:
${${::-${::-$${::-j}}}} -

how? every job I've ever had, even if it's lunix-centric has required some windows knowledge
back around Windows 2000 people worked out that there were certain strings that were reserved for driver interrupts but they didn't actually bother to block access to them
if you tried to access it as part of a path it'd cause the system to immediately lock up, old bluescreen
you could create a shortcut or send someone a link and it'd immediately seize up; back in high school we tried it on the laptops. none of the hard switches would work and the batteries were internal so they had to wait 4 hours for them to fully die, several times a week -

We'd put it in a .bat file and the poor person would get the Blue Screen of Death when they clicked on it. -

2021-12-22 at 3:32 AM UTCYou can also build games on Linux. RenPy for VN, the Morrowind Engine is available for RPG's. You got simple RPG makers. One seriously good game that runs on Debian and friends is 0AD. It's like Age of Empires but better. Plus if you must, Minecraft runs on Linux too.

2021-12-22 at 3:35 AM UTCthere's no reason you can't, a lot of engines work if you don't want to start from scratch
the problem is usually due to copyright and using open source code -

issues i seen with gaming on linux is the anti-cheat engines that games implement, where most games, for example rust, you can play while being on linux, on a rust server that has anti-cheat disabled. -
2021-12-23 at 2:49 PM UTCdepends on the game I guess but yeah, most anti-cheat engines rely on a level of memory access that you can't get without running it as root (sometimes not even that is enough because of how invasive they are and how *nix platforms handle memory protection). lately they seem to be very similar to the drm/copy protection engines that essentially run as a rootkit to intercept anything that tries to access the game's pages/segments.
I mean generally though - even offline games are less likely to get a lunix port due to licensing and copyright conflicts
