Your individual change is a drop in the ocean but everyone making that change is a tidal wave. I have very recently moved to linux after almost 30 years using windows. It is an incredible set of OSs with brilliant support from a fantastic community and it keeps getting better.
We need to make the change and encourage others too.
Whilst you are probably right, upvotes are not equal to good content. There is a strong correlation between votes and good content but one is not the cause of the other.
Eg. Facists upvoting facist content. Its not good content, but its got lots of upvotes.
I couldn’t get into predecessor, the matches take too long and the grind for coins to get new characters is slow. As MOBAs go its not bad. But i wouldn’t say great. And i definitely enjoy ARC more.
Baldurs gate 3 is a given. Best game of the last 5 to 10 years for me. Hands down.
Skyrim is boring as hell. It was marvellous when it came out, but its been released so many times and feels too clunky theses days.
Cant comment on dark souls, those games are too hard for me.
Didnt know runescape dragonwilds was a thing but after a quick google i am very interested. :)
Not played killing floor or first descent so can’t comment.
Imho ARC is certainly not a masterpiece but i do feel like a lot of what you dislike about is comes down to your personal bad luck and experience. I have had a very different experience with it, where the PVE has been much more prevalent that the PVP. I dont really follow the story, i just like sneaking around and killing the ARC. I play duos with a few different friends and enjoy the occasional brush with a hostile player. For me it really is occasional. I would say 10% of my matches i get someone shooting at me. And only about half of those end with me dead.
But i fully accept that the same applies to me. My experience of the game is not yours. So i appreciate that my personal view doesn’t impact yours.
Been using mint for the last few months after messing with raspian on some pis for a few months before that and the only time i had to log i to windows (dual boot) since getting mint was to play the original dungeon keeper in a network game with my son because for some reason the lutris wine/dosbox install wouldnt start a multiplayer match with the windows installed veraion on my sons laptop. Otherwise i have got everything i wanted working on there and its a much more pleasant experience. It feela like my computer again. Something i havent said since the end of windows XP.
We found the biggest moron on the internet.
I guess the AI writing windows 11 code keeps getting the taskbar wrong.
Yeah, cant do any transcoding though, but i dont need 4k for everything. Though as long as my client can play the format of the video then theres no issue. It would be easier with a mini PC but im enjoying learning linux and really liking the rasberry pi in general.
In terms of SSD. I could use a HDD. But it comes with 2 disadvantages. 1 is that media i copy from other devices to the drive takes A LOT longer to transfer. And 2, i have a big clunky HDD on my desk next to my 5 inch Pi… just makes more sense to use an SSD.
But essentially i guess its just not great to assume that there is no use case for them for home users just because you dont have a use case for them personally.
Jellyfin media server. I have another one acting as my router (with a small managed switch and openWRT) and one more pi5 i am using as a retro console. That one uses 2 nvme m.2 drives but the pi4 doesnt support nvme, only sata.
I needed a SATA SSD for my raspberry pi 4 connected via usb3.
I am a home user.
Is skyrim the new doom?
Did spez change his name to AI?
Yes. There’s a crease in the middle of the screen.
But its invisible to the user when looking at the screen.
It doesnt impact using the screen.
Its barely there on the latest fold 7. Definitely more prominent as you go back through the versions. Regardless i have owned 3 generations of the phone and used my wife’s one so 4 generations total and the crease doesn’t matter. Hasnt mattered on any of them.
What do you think the problem is with there being a crease? What practical issue does it raise? Or is it purely an aesthetic issue? Becaus3 if it is, like i said, you cant see it when you are the one using it.
I had my fold 3 for 4 years and my wife used it to get a feel for them after me and she very quickly got a 5. I had some of the paint chip off in places after a few years and one time that i got scared by something and jumped a bit and threw it out of my hand to the ground with the inner screen open (only cosmetic damage to the body) it survived a lot. A hell of a lot of engineering went into the hinge so its pretty much the strongest part of the phone. Jerryrigeverything on youtube has tried to snap these phones and they are very strong and so far have not broken in one of his tests.
Any phone can break, but i say if you care for your phone it should last. The 3 onwards have been really solid phones and the fears around them, to me, seem made up.
After reading through the comments and seeing the majority of people are commenting negatively but have never had a folding phone. i feel like i should chime in.
I have owns a fold 3 a fold 6 and now a fold 7, my wife has a fold 5 and we have never had one fail on us. No broken screens, no scratches or bugs. There are also several people where i work who have had at least 2 generations of these phones and also have never had issues.
I know these things break, but so does any phone. Phones breaking tend to be a user problem and not a hardware one. If you dont handle with care then you are the problem.
In fact i have only ever broken 1 phone in my 20+ years of using them and it was entirely my fault. I put it on a book on a table, then without thinking i lifted the book and it slid off and landed in a bucket of water. Pixel 1 not waterproof. My bad.
I guess i just think people are quick to judge these phones without ever having used one and i think thats so short sighted.
I am following through. Prepped a mint boot drive and have a 1tb ssd on its way. Gonna dual boot for a bit but gonna try to move to mint as a daily driver. Because fuck windows
Ive been getting a taste of linux setting up a few raspberry Pis. Its been really fun and it got me looking at installing a linux distro on my PC. Probably ubuntu or ive heard good things about mint.
You should publish a study
Ahh, sorry im so dumb sometimes. I think i spent too long on reddit in the before times and see any text as starting a fight :p
Im not referring to any particular cod game. Im referring to the whole series. Its triple A garbage that is churned out like pop music and its boring. Every new game is a rehash of a previous one with no innovation and more monetization.
Its not a review of the game. Its an opinion about the capitalist nature of the companies who make these games and how shit it is.
Yeah but people just WINE about linux.
