I mean Nvidia's just securing a monopoly

Sony always tries to do the same thing, though I think they're actually worse

im not happy with nvidias telemetry

its very annoying to re-decapitate it everytime i update my driver

Hm what do you mean?

about the telemetry or killing it?

Killing it

make a fake .exe with the same name and put in same folder, do this for all relevant files

nvtelemetrycontainer.exe, etc

you can use autohotkey

Oeh, I don't really know what the telemetry is either then I guess

this is really lazy amateur sec
```Autohotkey

Report(c, a)
{
;CheckForLibs()
MsgBox, 0, ACCESS DENIED , %c% `ntried to use `n%a% , 1
MsgBox, 0, ACCESS DENIED , It wasn't very effective! , 1
}


;if this file is rewritten by %c%, it should spawn a zlib.dll error provided i have deleted zlib from its folder and they have not respawned it. other otions; fake zlib.dll

; TelemEntries() ;existing consumer-grade spywares I have dealt with
; c==company
; a==application
LAClient()
{
c := "Logitech"
a := "LAClient.exe"
Report(c, a)
;c := ""
;c := ""
}

; main loop :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::;
LAClient()
;RZStats()
Return


```

telemetry just collects data when you run the program

i dont know much about nv's specifically, but i'd like to

Code in general?

theres a couple programs just to check if the telemetry containers were deleted, and then restore them, so you have to make a file for them too

if you change the names and compile as an .exe, anytime they try to run it, it just pops up a little notification, which is unnecessary

this one is for my logitech mouse but as you can see i used almost the same thing for my Razer Orbweaver Chroma

if you see telemetry in a folder alone, and you see .dll files with it, just delete those, such as zlib.dll. when the program tries to run it will error out when it cant get its libraries. but they might respawn them somehow

but its absolute bottom-feeder hax, so dont feel too safe with it. im still trying to work on it

AMD Gaming Evolved sketches me out far more

running it would bring my A10 APU to its knees and just crash and die

*they said they'd optimize all my games* 😢

I've been very happy with my 980 for the last three years

i would be too

It can still run most new AAA releases at 60+ FPS so yeah

Working on my terraria base atm

I can on 960 but not ultra and sometimes not at 1080p

Rocket League maxes out easy. Doom 4 not as much

i mostly play older games anyway

The Doom reboot is the one thing I forgot to pick up for some reason

i can complain about doom 4 a lot but i still think its super fun

dat combat

your 980 deserves it

Sure does

some of the enemy modeling is just ridiculously detailed

needs more color tho

doom had BLUE carpets

DOOM4 == no carpets

At least with blue carpets the bloodstains show
