Well that’s why so many people were keen for the PS3 supporting Linux way back when, but they had to remove it because people such as the US military were using them for cheap computing clusters.

You can either have an open system that lets you do what you want, or a cheap system subsidised by the company selling it, but you can’t have both unfortunately.

Maybe? You probably already can install Linux, but the compatibility would probably need some elbow grease, and some level of modding your system.

God I get so frustrated when people argue on the behalf of these mythical other people, but you seldom to never actually see anyone arguing this as something they’d like.

Like just say you’d like things to be easier for you to use, it’s a valid statement.

Open source drivers are a major plus, I’ve had a much easier time than my partner on NVIDIA. I mean I make both machines work but the NVIDIA has been a real pig at times.

Oh that’s sick hell yeah

Both? Both. Both is good.

Get an old PC, have a secure external data storage, and let them delete system files a few times, then teach them how to fix it themselves. Familiarity breeds comfort.

A touch, yes. I’m much happier being reliant on steam than Microsoft. They’re not incredibly indispensible either, you can do this stuff without them.

And if it like blows in the wind that’s a whole jigglebone system and wind simulation that’s a lot of stuff going on

I would say something like elden ring might be worth that price point given the breadth of the experience. Thing is, Elden ring is actually kinda too big. I like it, but a run through is like a multi week commitment, and I definitely don’t want that to be the norm, especially for fromsoft.

Prey 2018, when you break through the glass. The whole game was good, but that first bit was stellar.

The post work exhaustion will get easier over time, but it’s a trick to balance. Make sure you’re keeping your health good, getting adequate rest, etc. There will be some adjustment, some changes, it all depends on the kind of work you do and how hard you can avoid burning out.

Good luck, it will likely get better.

Hey mate good to see you, enjoy your fuckin stay.

I have the client for animelab which hasn’t existed since they got absorbed into crunchyroll. Maybe I’m just holding a grudge but I think there’s value in remembering what they took from you.

Represent. I do miss it sometimes, but it’s probably better that I don’t spend as much time online.

That’s pretty much the main thing, through they keep trying to slip shit it like the recall function, ads in new places. They also had some real trouble with the new internal CPU management, not sure where that is these days.

Honestly I’m tired of Microsoft pulling this shit. Personally I can take a bad OS launch or needing a little more maintaince on my PC, but I don’t want to fight them anymore for control of my own hardware.
