Like others said, disable password auth and setup auth keys instead.

Bonus points for moving the ssh port, using fail2ban and also setting up a tarpit with something like endlessh.

If you wanna go extreme use Wireguard to connect to your server and only allow ssh over wireguard in your firewall.

RDP clients on Linux are ass.

Remmina is better than windows native remote desktop shit imo

Many games do this intentionally btw. Make you lose some rounds and then give you an easy one to keep you hooked

Please do not the fish

It might be important to them, so why judge?

Cheers mate ;D

Honestly, I would just tell them

“No thanks”

Remember that no is a full sentence and you don’t owe an explanation to anyone. It’s not a part of your job, unless they pay you to attend. But they almost certainly don’t. I know it’s easier said than done, but try to not succumb to social pressure, it makes life so much better. Our free time is already very limited, so spend it how you want to. If they still try to pressure you into going/giving them answer you can say it’s something personal/private. And if they still pry further you could mess with them by making something up that makes them feel like a total jerk (this is pretty delicate, some people will definitely try to get revenge for this, even if it’s totally irrational. So think about it carefully, alternatively make them regret prying another way that doesn’t hurt them emotionally & socially)

Some people will not like if you behave that way, but try to live your life the way it fullfills you/makes you happy. There’s always gonna be people that don’t like or straight up dislike you, but fuck 'em. They’re not even worth thinking about when you’re busy enjoying life :)

Sorry for the wall of text. Anyway, that’s my 2 cents on the matter

Well, kinda. But you’re right, almost all of our actions come with consequences which can also affect more people than just ourself. But in this case our action or inaction doesn’t change much if at all

Corporations and by extension many people will sadly do and say anything to accomplish their goals

Well, thanks for letting me know :)

Felt kinda weird, but I actually know some people think like that so it didn’t feel to much off

Yeah, it’s great. Just fyi in case you wanna family share with your friends and Steam tells you “…not living in the same household…” is easily fixed by login into your friends account on your PC and vice versa.

You can use Rustdesk for that, so you don’t have to tell each other your passwords. Just keep in mind that families are restricted to 6 members atm

You’re absolutely right in thinking that way, but this isn’t the only tool of it’s kind. The most popular one is GreenLuma, which has multiple thousands of users. So me making a similliar one for Linux doesn’t really matter in the grand scale of things

Well then sorry for spewing false nonsense. I know Lemmy will flame me for this but Valve is still a soulless corporation fucking everyone over. Just not as much as most others

Added brief instructions and a download that doesn’t require registering to the post. I hope everyone is happy now

Alright, fine. My activity here is a lot less than on CS RIN though, so support & updates might take longer

No problem Mr. Ace! :)

They will ban your account and you will be crying because they took away all your games.

Projecting much? I’ve been using mods like this for a good decade. Also Valve has way bigger fish to fry with their shitty abusable shop system, all the people selling Steam market items on other websites and so on. The list is long

Dont abuse the system is pretty generous already.

You know what community this is in, right? It’s all about bypassing and abusing the system to get shit for free

Edit: Corrected some false statements on my part. Edit2: Undid first edit because seems like I got fed false informations

The lock is client sided, that’s the magic. You can play online just fine, I use it all the time to play multiplayer with my friends :)

Registration required.

Yeah, sorry CS RIN is semi public. But having an account there is definitely very useful, considering their forums are full of Steam games and useful tools for different stores.

Was the best forum to post into, because it fits perfectly on topic.

Tools like this have existed for maaany years already. Just look at GreenLuma, which has quite the userbase. Nothing’s happened to me yet and I’ve been doing this for 10+ years.

But you’re right, as always use at your own risk since Valve can at any point and time disable your account/revoke your licenses etc

For example if your family sharing library has 1 license for a Game only one of it’s members will be able to play it simultaneously. This modification disables that lock for everyone using it
