If the ping rate is irrelevant, then the good old sneakernet is a great way to transfer large amounts of data.

I have no idea why Pulse is so bad. During my last foray into Linux, I created a shortcut for killing and restarting Pulse and pinned it to the dock. I also replaced all my game shortcuts with scripts that reinitialized pulse, then ran the game, then reinitialized pulse again when the game was closed.

A new take on the Steam Machine could potentially knock Xbox out of the market in their current state, and I’m okay with that.

Skyrim had their best gameplay loop, but Morrowind’s writing carried the entire series. Very excited for Skywind to give me the best of both.

The bad cheese is orange, the good cheese is yellow or white. More seriously, the orange cheese melts at lower temperatures and doesn’t separate after melting. It can be good for grilled sandwiches and I’m told you can add small amounts to cheese sauces to prevent them from separating when stored in the fridge without impacting the flavor.

I think back in 2016 a lot of his supporters didn’t feel comfortable telling people they wanted to vote for him, even with anonymous polls. Trump supporters are much more open and vocal now.

Devs have gotten pretty lazy with file size optimization these last couple console generations, now that they don’t need to strictly fit everything on the disc.

Unless it’s a 24 hour clock.

Looking at release dates, just a couple days before Bookworm came out. I’ll have to try that one.

The ‘printer of fire’ error used to be a legitimate and important concern. Ye olde printers really could light their paper on fire under certain circumstances and they would typically be huge devices in dedicated rooms rather than something right next to your system. Letting people know to check on it when specific things went wrong probably saved a few buildings from burning down with people in them.

Yes, but it’s significantly less automatic. Testing distros on an old laptop, Debian wouldn’t support the network card out of the box and I had to use USB tethering from my phone to get the necessary drivers off the internet. Ubuntu just had them in the image and installed them automatically.

The pro upped the storage to 2TB, but I really feel like when the PS5 launched we were at the point where they should have shipped with 4TB drives.

Not really an English thing so much as a math thing that makes too much sense to not use elsewhere. For instance, in math you might have x[3 - 7{3y + (a * b)}]. I haven’t actually seen them go deeper than three sets, though, so I’m not sure what would be next.

Or he could have used brackets.

Do you have tips for someone used to newer Civ games? I know I played Civ2 as a kid, which should be similar, but I only remember back to 3 and only clearly back to 4. I tried AC and had difficulty just figuring out basic controls.

I want them to launch a Deck v2, Controller v2, and a new take on the Steam Machine simultaneously with a goal of knocking Xbox out of the market and replacing them as the third console. A new Steam Machine right now would play all of Xbox’s exclusives on day one and some of Sony’s.

So you can send the robot back in time, obviously.

Nowadays I mostly think of it in regards to how much control you have over the hardware. If you can Ship of Theseus your way to a completely different machine with completely different specs, that’s a PC to me. If you’re stuck with what you paid for, then it’s something else. A Mac Mini is not a PC in my book, but a Hackintosh is even though it’s the same OS and general hardware architecture.

But that’s just how I use the term.

I’m running a 4090 on PCIe 3. Apparently I’m only losing about 5% off the potential frame rate, which is barely noticeable.
