Thanks for this post. I have been considering getting a steam deck to replace my PC. I would use it in desktop mode for PC tasks. I’m already on Linux, so it wouldn’t really change my work flows.

I think the cpu is about the same or better than my i7-8700. The gpu is only a slight step down from my rx-470 4gb.

That was me the day the ps4 came out. It didn’t deliver until like 8 pm. Packages are never delivered that late.

I didn’t have work that day either and planned to play all day.

It seems like every other day is news of some group organizing. I really love it.

I recently discovered invidious, or however it’s spelled. The reason I started using it was because I wanted to get rid of YouTube shorts. They are too addicting and there is no way to turn it off on the official app.

The lack of ads is so nice, I think I’ll keep using it.

If they only had a way to remove or hide YouTube shorts, then I’d still be using their app watching their ads.

Thanks for these posts.

Just today I realized I was missing out on the free Epic games because I wasn’t seeing these posts on Reddit.

Well I’m not in the states so it has all the shows my wife and I typically binge and leave on in the background while we work.

  • Star Trek
  • friends
  • the office
  • modern family
  • big bang
  • other stuff she watches like cooking shows.

Most of this could be saved to a server and streamed, but Netflix is also dirt cheap in the country where I live. Maybe like $3/month or something like that.

I figure the cost of streaming is less than what I pay in electricity for my home server, so I can just turn that off when not in use to save power.

It’s crazy that a single person put this on hold. I wonder what his grudge with the show was? It’s a really well done show. I only watched it in the past year or two and I really loved it. I binged it pretty hard and needed a little break. I’ll jump back in soon to finish it.

My old roommate, who is now a model, just had the instructor give her the answers to the test and she got her license right away. So maybe you could try that?

I’m not particularly surprised. I think a lot of people are using it for free because they can.

They still value Netflix, but why pay for it if you don’t have to.

For some reason I’ve not been kicked off my parents account, but if I were kicked off, I’d subscribe.

It sounds like he was facing some kind of trouble and maybe thought this was his way to avoid it. Maybe he thinks he can trade military secrets for protection and a decent life? Who knows. Seems pretty strange.

Bring back overwatch one or give me s a refund!

 

I teach English and I need the Reach Higher G4A level and higher. There used to be a store online, but they were banned. I guess they didn’t sell a legit copy of the book.

Can anyone recommend some places where I can search for them or even buy them? I’m not in the US.

 

I am trying to find a series of text books that can be used to teach English. I don't mind paying for them, but I can't find a way to purchase them in my country.

The series I am looking for is Reach Higher, I specifically need the Reach G4A level and higher.

If anyone has any advise on where/how to get/buy them, please send me a message.

 

I see Apollo and I’m not sure if I want to delete it.

I’m not sure why. I guess I’m kinda hoping there is some update to it that adds some functionality, but I guess that’s not really in the cards.

Anyone else not deleting their third party app for a reason?

 

It seems that I am less and less interested in new games and am happier playing older games on emulators. I still game a decent amount, but I don’t even watch gaming news for new stuff.

I loved Skyrim, but I am not even interested in reading about starfield. It just seems that it’s going to be an extremely involved game. But at the same time I’d have no problem playing through Skyrim again and to be fair I just played through tears of the kingdom.

Anyone else have this problem as they are getting older? I’m in my mid 30s btw.

 

This game was my first jrpg as a kid. Well after Mario rpg and Pokémon. But I guess it always classified it different as it was a more serious game.

I was really young so it’s cool to play it now and better understand the story.

But I did not remember the battles being so long. It seems that every encounter so far has been a really long experience.

I just graduated seed training, so not to far into the remake. Im not worried about spoilers as I’ve played through this game when it was new, and watched a speed run of it a few years ago.

 

My wife just got into Tetris and wants to play together. I have been bragging to her about how good I am at Tetris and now she wants to play together

We would like to play side by side on the TV, but we do not want any of that stuff where if person A does well, then person B gets random blocks.

Does something like this exist?

We could play on PC or on Switch.

 

I fail to see the purpose of a MacPro over a Mac Studio.

I know it has pci slots, but can someone tell me how they will realistically be used? Used in a way that can't be done with thunderbolt.

The pricing seems absurd compared to a Mac Studio.

 

I lived Red and Blue as a kid. I think I played Gold on an emulator back in the day.

I really loved the challenge I had playing Red as a kid. I liked getting through an area with just a few hp left.

I never got hardcore into the newer games and have been so disappointed with how easy and hand holding the newer games have been.

I would like to play a romhack. Can someone make a recommendation for me?

 

I have only played with it for a few minutes as I am about to start work. But it seems really great so far. I need to look into the control scheme to learn some of the controls, but it was not difficult to figure out.

I think it also supports controllers as well, I will likely play it that way at some point.

 

It looks like they forgot to finish their homework and submitted it hoping no one would notice, but it really stick out to me.
