I think it will be very easy to find a host that federated from them, making it easy to mitigate the damage.

Please post when you’re ready for beta waters. I’m looking forward to seeing it.

Never trust a rant from a person that can’t install Windows.

There’s some people that can’t come up with positive references, even when cherrypicked. I’d probably fall into that group.

Just because you don’t know something, that doesn’t make it a secret, you just haven’t bothered to do a tiny bit of searching.

I wouldn’t call user-agent switchers a secret.

I hope you update the post with any info you find.

Yes, that’s definitely the only time emergency services are useful.

People who craft intentionally misleading titles with a qualifier at the end that diffuses the statement have been proven to be pedophiles, schwim says.

Someone point this man to a soap opera instance, stat!

I disabled it on my phones. I’ve found it to be completely without value.

“It happens all the time” and “they always do *” is also comically unhelpful and useless. I’m getting a pot/kettle vibe from those that seem to take offense at my comment.

I’m sorry but I don’t see how that check is browser-specific. Is that part happening on the browser side?

Nobody can even state that it’s actually happening “for competitive browsers” as even Chrome users are reporting an unexplained lag/slowdown. At this point, it’s just wild speculation and bandwagoning.

I chose not to wait. Greasemonkey script for blocking on desktop, Connect app for blocking on phone.

My issue(I think) is a combination of games utilizing anticheat(I’ve not gotten a single one to work yet) and also trying to play non-new games that were not designed during the Steam push for compatibility. I can’t use linux to play the games I like to play so I use a Win host for gaming and to run my linux install in a VM on the second screen.
