TLAC (Tuncor’s Local Anti-Cheat) is a brand new open-source, user-space anti-cheat built specifically for Linux — and it’s trying to fix the one problem still keeping Linux gamers out of multiplayer: anti-cheat trust.

TLAC Github:
https://github.com/TuncorReUnion/TLAC-MODERN-LOCAL-ANTI-CHEAT-REUNIONED

Games like Valorant, Fortnite, and Apex Legends run great on Linux thanks to Proton and the Steam Deck, but kernel-level anti-cheat systems like Riot Vanguard, BattlEye, and Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC) still refuse to trust Linux machines. In this video, we break down why Linux gaming’s biggest problem was never performance — it was trust — and how solo developer Tuncor is trying to solve it with TLAC.

In this video we cover:

– Why Valorant, Fortnite, and Apex Legends still block Linux players
– How kernel-level anti-cheat (Vanguard, BattlEye, EAC) compares to user-space anti-cheat
– What TLAC actually does — memory scanning, signature detection, HWID bans, and eBPF integrity checks
– The real reason major publishers won’t support Linux gaming (hint: it’s not technical)
– Whether an open-source, privacy-respecting anti-cheat can actually succeed against the giants

If you’re a Linux gamer tired of being locked out of competitive multiplayer, or you’re just curious about the future of Linux anti-cheat and open-source security, this one’s for you.

If you enjoyed this video, like, subscribe, and let me know in the comments — do you think open-source anti-cheat can finally crack multiplayer gaming on Linux?

We're giving 100,000 academic researchers free access to our frontier models

We’re giving scientists, mathematicians, and engineers free access to our frontier models—starting with 10,000 researchers and expanding to 100,000 through 2027.

ChatGPT for Academic researchers is built to accelerate discovery across disciplines.

We believe the benefits of frontier AI should not be concentrated in a few companies and well-resourced labs. Researchers know their fields best. Our role is to put powerful tools in their hands and help accelerate their work.

The program will help researchers take on the hardest problems, accelerate discovery, and improve productivity across their work, from preparing grant applications to testing hypotheses.

Participants will receive access to our frontier models, including our GPT-5.6 family of models. Each workspace includes business-grade privacy and security protections. Researcher data is not used to train our models by default, and participants can invite up to four collaborators.

The program also includes training, hands-on support, and opportunities to learn from other researchers.
