It’s not even clear what changed.

Linux is way easier than it was even 10 years ago and many games run better on Linux than they do on Windows. There’s gaming distros but I’m not sure what the benefit is other than the built-in NVIDIA drivers. I just game on Fedora. You need to enable Proton stuff in the settings and you’re off.

Are these cheaper or is it just Uber etc trying to maximise their profits by cutting out the salary bit?

Let me know if you figure out how to get UO working on Wine. I have to use the online client.

This is just some glitch. They’ve not said anything about watching stuff locally becoming a pay thing.

I’ll probably keep using it and see what happens. To be honest I’ll just go where the content is, and if the new people fuck it up it’ll likely go elsewhere.

I rushed to the comments when I saw a 1.6ghz CPU being called low end but I see OPs already been dealt with. I remember the first ever 1ghz CPU being an overclocked nitrogen cooled AMD Athlon. Me and my mates were all talking about it when it happened.

I spent a few years living in a developing country in Africa so I have some appreciation of what you’re going through. I used to find lots of technology shops on Google Maps, etc, then when I got there they just sold phone covers and SIM cards and knock-off iPhones.

I can’t really offer much advice but have you considered just making something based on a second hand laptop? A lot of them are still pretty powerful just with old batteries and they’re designed to run efficiently.

I have done in the past but it’s not a common thing. It really something I did when I was a kid. In the last 10 years I’ve actually done a bit of sleepwalking. It only really happens when I’m drunk but it’s always been quite fun as I usually just hear the stories in the morning. I’m not just wandering around aimlessly, there’s usually some kind of logic going on. You know when you’re in a dream and you have some kind of weird backstory to what you’re doing but you don’t know how you know it, you just know. I’m kind of walking around slightly conscious of where I am but with some weird backstory. Most of the time I just think it’s daytime and I’m doing something, like going to work.

I always thought it’s kind of odd how frivolous we are with IPv6 addresses given the problems that gave us with IPv4. US DoD has like 200 million IPv4 addresses and they probably only use a tiny fraction of that. There’s also a bunch of old companies like HP, IBM, and Apple, that have entire /8s, so that’s 16 million IPs each. I know IPv6 is ridiculously bigger but we’re talking about giving IP addresses to our lightbulbs now at a time we’re also looking to inhabit other planets.

It looks like the kind of interface they’d use in classic Pokemon or Stardew Valley. I like the colours.

I find that the docs usually consist of a quick start guide covering some ultra tight scenario that doesn’t apply to most people, and reference material that’s just some total brain dump of every possible command without any kind of context.

Maybe let them know how many people skipped their question?

If you like Zorin and want to support it then just do it. Don’t let other people tell you to switch, more people should contribute.

I didn’t want to say this but I can’t help myself.

It’s addictive, not addicting.

I know but it’s cheap.

OneDrive works pretty well on Linux actually. Takes a few lines of config and there’s no GUI but it’ll sync a folder nicely and run as a service.

Is everyone posting about Oblivion simply new to it? Seems weird to me that everyone’s so excited about it but it’s probably just because I played it to death the last time it came round.

I know everyone always says Nestlé in threads like this but what are they still doing? What damage would you save by getting rid of them?

Everyone keeps complaining about smart TVs. I’ve got a Samsung and it gives me no bother. The only thing I don’t like is that when you turn it on, if you don’t do anything, it automatically switches to the last thing you were watching which often means my daughter might end up putting on some horror channel or whatever we were watching the night before after she went to bed.
