You’ve sold me on it! I’m gonna have to play it now


For clarity, are you manually downloading or using the *aar’s for automated downloading?


Literally

It’s not about protecting the children nor has it ever been


This is a very short sighted view of the situation at hand.

The banning of books and literal re-writing of history in certain states should be concerning for anyone who realizes what a dark road we’re headed down.


I love Quake and have for years but it’s definitely sad to see how barren the franchise has become and the ways that QuakeCon has changed from what it once was

Hoping this a fun watch though!


+1 for Frugal Usenet as well, I’ve had a good experience with them so far


The explainer may be sincere; however, it is clear that privacy and an open web are not in Google’s interests. They contradict that sentiment in the explainer entirely. There’s 0 reason for any one to give them the benefit of the doubt.


My advice is follow hashtags for topics you like or are interested in. They will then show up in your feed. It’s wonderfully personalized and I’ve found lots of great people that way with similar interests


Here’s my advice:

  • Don’t torrent without a VPN, seriously!
  • +1 for Mullvad VPN, it’s privacy focused and works great!
  • Use qBittorrent, it’s the standard torrenting software that basically everyone uses nowadays. It’s lightweight and reliable.
  • Make sure to set up qBittorrent after installing it, go into settings and bind your network interface to your VPN so even if your VPN is off accidentally or gets kicked off somehow you will be safe. You can also setup the “kill-switch” functionality in most VPNs so that it kills qBittorrent if it goes off, but that’s not always 100% reliable.

As far as Udemy courses, I’ve yet to find a good source for them myself, at least any relatively newer courses. I’ve never tried to find art courses but I’d say using a torrent search engine like Knaben or qBittorrent’s built in search functionality.


Believing that certain folks don’t deserve basic rights because of their identity, sexual orientation, skin color, etc. is not an opinion that’s acceptable. No one with a brain wants to hear any of that non-sense thankfully!


I’d imagine this was the plan from the get-go or at least a consideration. I don’t think they swindled anyone necessarily, they weren’t banking on sales with it being on Gamepass, so this makes perfect sense IMO.

They announced that anyone who bought the game will get in-game reimbursements and anyone on Gamepass gets the Ultimate Edition upgrade for free, so that atleast there’s that.


Good to know! Didn’t realize at first it was just their marketing term for Resizable BAR lol TIL


  • For 1, all motherboards should work with both AMD and Nvidia GPU.
  • For 2, you can mix and match, there are some benefits to using both an AMD CPU and GPU, namely Smart Access Memory
  • For 3, AMD’s naming is confusing as hell but basically they used to have R3, R5, R9, etc for different tiers of cards, but now everything goes under the “RX” naming prefix.
  • They use the X and XT suffix to differentiate the fastest versions of the same tiers of cards or revisions of cards. (Kind of like Nvidia’s TI suffix)
  • The equivalent of a 4070 is a RX 6950 XT as far as I’m aware.

My senior neighbor watches YouTube a ton and uses it to listen to music on his laptop. His old laptop recently died and I helped him order a new one and put FireFox with the whole works of adguard, ublock origin, sponsorblock, etc. on it for him and its changed his life! He loves not seeing these dumb ads now!

I think a replay of all 3 games is in the cards soon! I’m ready to be hurt again


*But dreams have a nasty habit of going bad when you're not looking.* Any other fans of the Max Payne franchise here? Although it's unlikely to ever happen, I'd love to see a remake or even remaster of Max Payne 1 and 2! 3 could be remastered or remade as well but it's still new enough for now I guess and also playable on modern hardware without mods/issues. I think out of the 3 games, 1 is still my favorite all these years later, but 2 and 3 are masterpieces in their own right as well! And who could forget the forgotten treasure that was the Max Payne movie with Mark Wahlberg, Mila Kunis, Ludacris, etc. Middle-school aged me at the time was so hyped for that movie and enjoyed it although it got destroyed by reviewers. *Give us a Max Payne TV show someone!*

If you haven’t already, 100% look into software modding it, you’ll thank us later!


Do what you enjoy, I’m nearly 30 and I plan to game until some pries this mouse and keyboard or my controller from my cold dead hands! Have fun and don’t worry about it!



Yuzu and the other popular switch emulator, Ryujinx, may run better or worse depending on your PC specs–compiling shaders is normal on boot up but mine never takes more than a minute or two at most so an hour is extremely long.

Each emulator, Yuzu and Ryujinx, have varying performance with different games but run most games well.

Yuzu typically has games running better faster because the project isn’t aimed to be a true simulation of the switch or super accurate like Ryujinx is.

You can checkout both to see which one you like of course.


I NEED IT

I’ve been eyeballing this for a good while guess it’s time to pull the trigger now


A nifty website I’ve been using to learn the basics of SQL
I can't remember where I came across this website, but I love it and wanted to pass it along for anyone else learning SQL right now!
