Try different USB devices. I had a bad mouse do something similar.

They live in their own paranoid delusional world where everyone is out to get them and they are the heroes between bad and good.

The government already knows where most of these people are. They’re just grifting and terrorizing people.

Everything is a special model these days which makes the price higher. You don’t see mid range, average cars anymore.

At the time it would have been worth it to pick up a lot of games over an expensive pc. I’m not sure I would go out of my way to buy one today since most of the good games are on pc and can play on a pc without a gpu. If you find one for $20 at a garage sale then I would probably get it if you’re into collecting games.

I’m so glad that he showed some games that aren’t shooters/sports or pc games. I found there’s a combo Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts / Viva Pinata that I decided to pick up. I’ve had a 360 collecting dust that I picked up cheap years ago and never really played it. I’ll probably pick up a few more games for it if I find them for cheap.

I have zero trust installing pirated software, especially when they go out of their way to break it when using wine on Linux or running it in a vm.

I don’t think most people notice the performance difference when it comes to fps or even resolution unless things are stuttering or slowing down. I definitely think value is something to consider, especially because most people play games that don’t require high performance.

I’m just saying that you can build a decent pc for $100-$300 with older components or even just use a laptop. That’s why the average hardware is so much lower. The steam machine is estimated to be around $750.

I put together a minimum spec pc for $100, so it depends on how much better it is for me. HP Z240 office machine plus an rx480 8gb.

It sounds like he just needs one of these

After having stability issues with Ubuntu I switched to fedora. It just works. If you need to install something with the terminal just Google how to install program fedora and you’ll find some simple commands to copy and paste. Just make sure you understand what you’re inputting.

I wouldn’t equate installing proxmox on an old pc to open heart surgery. It’s pretty basic stuff and you can follow guides on how to install services in a container or vm. People are interested in things like pihole, home assistant, arr stacks, nas, and better control over their network. It’s definitely not rocket surgery.

I wish they would say what platform instead of just “darknet”

You could use a math trade software. Instead of putting in items just have everyone select each other’s names. Or you could just do a math trade where everyone enters an item and then everything gets randomly traded somewhat like a white elephant but anonymized.

Yesterday there was an article stating that Microsoft has more hardware in inventory than they can actually power on.

A billion rubles? The company has been allowing outside actors to manipulate the platform since at least 2016. No way they let them do that for free.

I installed an external antenna for mine pointed directly at the nearest cell tower and it’s fine with multiple streams going. Before I did that it wasn’t very good. The annoying part is that there’s no access to settings in the router. I’m considering going to fiber for an extra $30/mo just because of the router issue.
