Ya and Amazon reviews are so untrustworthy now too. Sellers can ramp up ratings on products and swap out the product and keep the reviews.

I think Radeon 9600xt?

The steam deck is also amazing, such a nice piece of hardware. I’ve been gaming on Linux for years and I’m surprised how well it works. Feels like a console.

It unknowingly interferes with my security or privacy, 100%. It has root access. What’s it doing in there? Nowadays you’re naive to think it’s just to prevent game cheating. I guarantee they’re collecting all kinds of information.

I kind of assumed it would be packaged with each game, a waste of space (but how big could it be?) but leaving a game with anti cheat a global dependency seems like a bad idea.

Lots of games with anti cheat auto work under wine/proton. The most on top of my head example is Elden ring. Runs fine on my desktop with arch, as well as my steam deck.

Heroes of might and magic 3, but I feel like it might not have the same appeal if it did happen. Happy to be proven wrong, of course 🙂

Overload exists. While not a remake, it is the spiritual successor with the original development team making it.

Sounds like you might have ADHD. People with ADHD sometimes have difficulty getting things done until their stress response kicks in.

That makes more sense lol

You said the “latter” which refers to the last thing you mentioned which was reliability. You mean “former”, then.

That’s what I’m talking about too. Hardware repairability.

Ah yes. Come back in the morning to resume my work and everything is closed. Thanks, Microsoft.

The best? Debatable. You ever watch Louise on YouTube? He constantly rags on bad hardware design when repairing MacBooks lol.

Perfect, just when I’ve decided 16GB is the bare minimum these days too. My day to day I max out 16 on my laptops without even trying. 32 is my new minimum.

“BREAKING:”

Lol, living in a world where “anti-genocide” is actually a thing people say is messed up.

Because I get my full speed

I remember this. Not sure if I ever did it though
