So probably not clear from title but I’d say this is a Linux problem. Basically I’m using sbctl to sign the cachyos kernel on fedora since it eeks out a little performance and also as I understand it it uses a slightly differently scheduler so my computer doesn’t lock up when hitting a steam download hard. I’ve only just started getting the error recently so I’m assuming it’s related to the MS secure boot key stuff that happened in June. I have confirmed that using the default provision from my mobo doesn’t trigger the vanguard error. Trying to figure out a solution, otherwise I guess I have half a mind to just nuke shitty windows forever again. I’ll take either an alternative solution to the cachyos kernel or a solution to the keys. What I don’t understand is doesn’t sbctl enroll the default keys from your mobos firmware anyway? Is this simply that ANY modification to my secure boot keys is somehow a problem with vanguard now? Thanks all!
They might not be getting money from you, but they’re getting a lot of other things like harvesting your data, advertising (like this thread)… Always remember that free to play is a business model, not a charity.
Sure I’m advertising I guess, but I mean their primary model is agressive battle pass and skin sales which subsidize me playing. I’m not entirely sure what they’d do with my data with whatever they’re even collecting except try to make me and other players more enticed to buy skins. I’m aware free is not free but I mean saying “harvesting my data” doesn’t mean anything to me unless I know what they’re harvesting or using it for. Everyone is harvesting my data. Bots are scraping my Lemmy data right now, minimizing that is fine but there’s no way to have a vacuum sealed private existence on the internet.
