Troubleshooting for friends or getting paid for playing a kernel level game in my case.

I was disgusted by Riot adding kernel level 24/7 spyware. That was the last straw for me solidifying my decision to quit League. After a month I’ve installed Linux on another SSD and had so much more fun with it than in LoL.

Eight months daily driving Linux, 5 months completely clean of LoL, social life improved a LOT and a question of a scholarship is now how high and not if.

Surpsingly a lot of adults play Roblox. I dislike the game but I was asked multiple times by my older peers to play Roblox.
