@same@tech.lgbt Now, to be fair, it's not like gamers would care. Online games today include anti-cheats that run in kernel mode which jeopardizes any permission control you have in userspace. And they will refuse to run if you don't allow the kernel-mode anti-cheats to run.

@chjara@snowdin.town @same@tech.lgbt I personally just classify them as malware, period. I'll only allow proprietary games to run if they work over Wine, which also means no kernel mode anti-cheats. But even that is probably too weak of a security model compared to what they are willing to do.

@feld I agree. The only thing worth disabling for performance's sake. Maybe, stopping Atimalware Service Executable (part of defender I guess) could give a barely noticeable advantage. What's wrong with UAC though? It might be annoying for some, but how does it affect performance? 🤨@same @chfour

@same Yes, AtlasOS is controvercial in terms of changes, but AME Wizard tool is great.W10 Ameliorated was good in terms of security hardening, but you can't get _new_ security updates from Windows Update (because they purged it).So just use Linux lol

@rastilin @nkizz @same if enough people disable mitigations, they will become relevant again as hackers will try to exploit these issue. It's really a case of herd immunity.I disable mitigations because I know what I'm doing. My mum has mitigations on because she doesn't.

@rastilin @nkizz @same There's a good chance the people using this are also downloading cracked executables from the internet without even checking if they're safe. If you're not careful, it might be bundled with stuff like cryptomining software or worse.Or all it might take is a USB with a virus on it, Windows sees it and autoruns some code on it and boom, your desktop is compromised.So maybe intentional attacks won't matter. But unintentional ones do.

@Foxhack windows hasn’t auto run code from removable devices for over a decade, it isn’t the era of stuxnet anymore. I’d be interested to see if anti-virus deals with crypto mining, I’d imagine it would be pretty easy to detect? but it wouldn’t even need admin to run since it’s not accessing system filesdisabling UAC is dumb since it doesn’t affect performance but there’s always a line. the only secure computer is one that’s turned off and buried underground lol

@nkizz This exploit was found and reported less than two years ago. It's luckily already been patched out. As you said, it's not Stuxnet, but that Razer software was installed in a lot of systems so it could have been a problem.https://www.forbes.com/sites/daveywinder/2021/08/28/new-windows-10-hacking-warning-for-millions-of-users/?sh=98ab4ba1bb79Windows is a pain, haha. :(

@nkizz I am not smart enough to understand most of what you're saying :DBut I've had to deal with computers getting bricked because someone did a thing they're not supposed to - often times by myself - and when I see warning signs I let people know.I apologize if I sounded preachy or something, I'm bad at writing things online.
