- 1 - …I respect the historical importance of this game.
I had a coworker who swore by this game in the nineties. When I finally got to it, I played most of the way through, but lost the save and haven’t been able to pay through again.
- 4 - First game that actually holds up.
Played through in college over a weekend. Got pretty far in. Loved it.
- 6 - I liked this game up until I found out that I was supposed to be grinding three distinct parties the whole time.
Borrowed from a friend in high school and beat sneaking to play overnight. Fell in love with the series here. My friend from work said this was the weakest of the three, but I appreciated the story.Three distinct parties don’t matter if you constantly rotate them and then use the yellow dinos to power level.
- 7 - I went into this expecting the first 3D installment to be another example of historically important but poorly aged. Was pleasantly surprised by how well it holds up.
High school friends were all into it. I couldn’t play until I could get it to play on Bleem! Currently on my 15th play through.
- 8 - I went into this knowing it’s the weird one. I was the sicko that liked 2, but I still couldn’t get through it.
Friend of mine and I played all the way through on this. The draw system is unusual, but looking back it was a great story. It was weaker without the cyberpunk dystopia of Midgar, and felt like I was now playing as the enemy. I also remember the trigger system infuriatingly.
- 9 - Bought it alongside 8, when I dropped 8 I never got around to this. I will eventually… maybe…
This got so much criticism when it came out. It’s actually a beautiful game that sticks close to the original premise.
- 10 - Perfects the classic formula while still feeling sufficiently modernized. Uh, for some definition of modern…
The grid on this is different, and the game is linear compared to some of the others. In contrast the characters are each so distinct. Also, the voice acting was a huge change.
15 was also automated. My problem with an open world is that it feels like you should scrape the world clean. Also, I was never sure when to move forward and got stuck forever in the first area.
You should not have any issues. Worst case scenario is that one is slower than the other and will cause the faster one to step down, but unless one is significantly slower, you should have no issues.
Generally, in the past 10 years at least, mixed memory on dual channel configuration has not been an issue.
If the drives are good, maybe. If not, you are looking at buying 4 drives from their compatibility list.
Do you already have a storage server? I’m running TrueNAS on a computer I retired a few years ago. I have 4 1TB drives in it and am about to install a used SAS card I got from eBay for $40 to add up to 6 more. It should give me 8tb of space.
Without context, I would suggest Transmission for troubleshooting. Qbittorrent is bloating and weird on Windows.
The torrents should be hashed, but that wouldn’t stop someone from making a bad torrent or seeding one.
If someone made a file intentionally collided it would probably cause issues. These aren’t collision issues, but bad chunks of data.

At a peek, it seems that this attack only causes delays in downloads. It’s more possible that there are commonly shared files with similar issues.
As kolorafa said, writing at a lower speed might help.
Also, how is read performance on the optical drive? Could you try a commercial disk to see if it plays well?
If you made basic changes to your boot order I can’t see it causing performance issues with the drive. I can’t think of any settings that would cause issues.
My thought is more that there might be a bottleneck for the drive. In Windows a hard drive at 100% utilization slows down the system. I don’t know what kind of drive op has, but poor perform would be displayed in the performance monitor.
Also, if they are playing games and the network is saturated, they would experience network performance issues.
I’m guessing your writer is failing.
Same data
Same media
Multiple os rules out malware, mostly
Without being there to watch and understand your process, I have to assume you know what you are doing and haven’t missed a step in the writing process, such as finishing the disk or whatever. The fact that you are using multiple applications on multiple operating systems lends confidence.
That leaves the hardware itself. Luckily a new writer isn’t expensive.
S.1199 - STOP CSAM Act of 2023
This is currently in Congress. The intent is to kill end to end encryption in the United States under the pretense of child safety. If you are in the states, contact your local Congressional representative and tell them to vote against the bill.
I’m surprised there is not more organization against it.
This device is totally capable of running Minecraft, assuming it’s an older version.
It contains one of two computers.
The older computer was manufactured around '07, has a dual core processor, and may have up to 2g of ddr2.
The newer version I believe was manufactured around 2012 and has a 4 core processor with up to 8 gigs of ddr3.
Both are capable of running Windows, but I wouldn’t put 10 on the older one.
