@genericnerdyusername:matrix.org@genericnerdyusername:matrix.orgis there a way i can run games in a container so i dont need to worry about malicious mods?16:33:29
@genericnerdyusername:matrix.org@genericnerdyusername:matrix.orgi dont want to straight up use a vm, both bc of the performance overhead and i dont want to set up gpu passthrough16:33:35
@k900:0upti.meK900You can try bubblewrap16:42:02
@k900:0upti.meK900Depends on what you're trying to isolate really 16:42:09
@angryant:envs.net@angryant:envs.netCould the flatpak steam distribution have any isolation extended to the games it launches? Or has it already been poked so full of holes it doesn't matter?16:44:42
@k900:0upti.meK900It's not particularly sandboxed to begin with 16:45:12
@k900:0upti.meK900Like it's a little sandboxed but it's not a lot 16:45:21
@k900:0upti.meK900All the games still run inside that little bit of sandbox16:45:33
@k900:0upti.meK900But it's just not a lot 16:45:48
@k900:0upti.meK900Honestly I wish Flatpak was more explicit about this 16:46:51
@k900:0upti.meK900I understand why they aren't 16:47:03
@k900:0upti.meK900And I don't know what the solution to that would be 16:47:10
@angryant:envs.net@angryant:envs.netYeh I figured. Seems likely to be a distant secondary priority.16:47:19
@k900:0upti.meK900But sometimes I wish they were 16:47:22
@k900:0upti.meK900
In reply to @angryant:envs.net
Yeh I figured. Seems likely to be a distant secondary priority.
The Steam Flatpak is notably unofficial
16:47:36
@k900:0upti.meK900So Valve isn't really actively invested in it 16:47:44
@k900:0upti.meK900They're definitely not unaware of it and they've done things to support it better16:48:11
@k900:0upti.meK900But it's not an official distribution method16:48:21
@angryant:envs.net@angryant:envs.netExactly. Hence an understandable primary priority of "just make it work" with other considerations very distant.16:48:47
@k900:0upti.meK900They have been moving towards using more portal APIs16:49:21
@k900:0upti.meK900Just for better desktop integration 16:49:29
@k900:0upti.meK900So maybe over time it'll get better 16:49:34
@angryant:envs.net@angryant:envs.netAh that very nice in general.16:49:38
@angryant:envs.net@angryant:envs.net* Ah that's very nice in general.16:49:49
