It’s been a trend for quite a while now, “reaction” videos. There was even a YouTube gremlin who wholesale stole content from everyone and did nothing on camera

I’ll have a dose of My Immortal, please

Most preppers are of the “fuck society, I am the most important part of it” mentality, whether they’re aware of it or not.

When shit hits the fan and the urban civilizations collapse, it’s the old nomads that’ll survive (if they haven’t been killed off entirely by then)

Unpowered for how long? 6+ months?

I don’t need nor want to download the damn files in the first place. Most games won’t allow me to delete them either

Which sucks for anyone that doesn’t have a 8GB+ GPU. I’m fine with 1024x1024 textures, I don’t need or want higher res textures, I want good framerates

I bet the general answer from congress would be “Why? It’s not our country’s problem where they end up once out of here”

I remember a similar story some time ago, of another map that was just a big arena filled to the brim with all the enemies. Part of the strategy was circle strafing the whole place while enemies killed one another, then using the ammo to deal with whatever was left. Can’t remember the map name

I find that very likely, which will be extremely on character, as Oblivion was the first single player game to sell cosmetic DLC: horse armor.

Still better than magic in Skyrim, which by level 10 wouldn’t be causing enough damage even on mudcrabs anymore

X4 is a very complex game. You start as a relative nobody in space, but can earn money to create big mining and trading fleets to get more money while you’re busy with other stuff, finally using said money to buy military fleets.

It’s full of eurojank, it’s a huge time sink (I’m a bit over 100h now), but it may be the kind of thing that tickles your neurons just right.

Playing X4, despite the crashes.

But to be really honest, giving drawing lessons to 9-11yo kids. Something I never considered doing in my life, but damn does it make me feel good, though the kids’ progress (or lack thereof) often leaves me wondering if I’m actually being any good

What about committing crimes facilitated by facebook, instagram, tiktok? Those fraudsters (fake ads for high paying jobs, famous people peddling snake oil, etc) rarely get caught.

misskey/sharkey are also very heavy on the client side due to excessive javascript. Great looks on the browser, tho

Same reason people still use Unity after the whole shitfest on “per install tax”: large community, huge knowledge base, tutorials everywhere, professional courses that focus on it.

Kinda ironic that the Unreal Tournament games (99, 2004, 3) were all incredibly optimized.

Probably too many old fart executives that “know better”, plus directors or writers with a pet project that have to drop it and work on a “stupid game movie”

Also Uwe (suck my) Boll for tax reduction

Getting infected with a crypto miner is the more likely outcome for such a computer, which can be a bother

That looks badass and the perfect advert for Firefox (the browser)

If I had a setup like that, I’d start a streaming or video career just to show it off

• Eat all the ram
• Freeze the whole computer
