Thanks. Discontinued since 2019 lol… I’m kinda late on the news.
- Comment on The Steam controller was ahead of its time 6 days ago:
I still use my 2 steam controllers. I want to game on couch so this is the most mouse-like thing I’ve found, back in 2016. What’s up, why don’t they sell these anymore?

Dude, you’re the one who wants to win an argument here. I use both computer daily. I also have an Amd 5950x, an i7 6700, a 2012 MB pro at my studio that I use a couple of times week. I’m not exactly a computer illeterate, it’s part of my job to work on different systems I don’t do a ton of multitasking on the i5, no need for 42 tabs open on a media and gaming system lol, but I can assure you if there’s any lag on firefox with a few tabs open and an office suite running, it’s not enough to bother the vast majority of people. Seriously I cant count the number of times I’ve add this discussions with “gamers” that believe they know everything about computers because they play AAA and upgrade their gpus every 2 years. I’m should really do a freaking video of my i5 doing the normal stuff people do and playing a few games, just so I can stop having this discussion lol. In the end, I dont care if you dont believe me, but you really should work on optimizing your system if you can’t do normal stuff on it. Btw, if a computer is good enough for pro audio, it’s good enough for browsing and office work lol.

I suspect it’s all the OS bullshit that makes you experience laggy. Obviously having an SSD and 8gb ram is essential. I made a super light install of Win 10 on my i5 750, years ago, and any office works is still 100% smooth on it. Even editing and mixing audio is not much different than on my M1 Max, I still open some old projects from time to time. I teach computer science in an audio engineering program, and I’m convinced that in the field of audio, we won the battle of computing power a very long time ago. On the other hand, for video processing, game engines, etc. it’s another story. But in the field of sound, power gains are marginal these days.

Has mentioned, I just finished It takes 2 with my nephew. Might subscribe to Gamepass to try Doom The Dark Age. Not everyone needs 4k or competition performance.

I think people tend to forget that the vast majority of people don’t even play games on their computer. Like when I mention this computer, I always get “Nah, this wont play Elden Ring at 4k 120 fps, just throw it to the garbage”. But my parents, sisters, most of my friends dont give a damn about gaming. And this computer is definitely fast enough for all my personal gaming need, I actually have
Another thing, is that gaming streaming services are now super efficient. I could literally play Doom the Dark Age at 1080p on Xbox Game pass with this PC, and I sometimes subscribe to PS+ to play Playstation exclusives.

I don’t play online games, but otherwise I have a library of 200+ games and they all work fine so far. At 1080p, sometimes I put it at 720p to get higher fps.
Lately, I’ve been playing It takes 2, Little Nightmare 2, Fallout 4, Hades, Sable, Doom 2016 among others, no issues.

I mean, it’s not my work PC anymore, but this one has been my main entertainment system for years now. I really don’t need to upgrade and create e-waste to gain a little bit of performance. I haven’t even installed Linux on it yet, still on win 10, but that will make it even faster. It’s my firm belief that like 80% of the people would be fine with 15+ years old computers.

I keep repeating this, my i5 750 (2009 pc), oc at 3.6ghz can do any fucking thing most people do with their computer. With a 1060 gpu, It plays like 90% of the games , I’ve made pro audio and video projects on it, even a small vr game.

I mean I guess so. But I dont think this is a really common lifestyle.
- Comment on Life after 30 be like 3 weeks ago:
Idk. If you’re always tired and need 10 hours of sleep everyday, there might be something wrong with your lifestyle. Being active is what gives me energy.
- Comment on Life after 30 be like 3 weeks ago:
People who made these memes seems to have such boring lives.
I’m in my forties, went to see my 4th show of the month yesterday, I have a diner friday, a party saturday, and 2 more shows next week. Most of these are free events btw.

I mean, I’m in my early 40s and I’ve started with ms-dos. According to this meme what am I? A fucking dinosaur? Am I that old?
- Comment on The city is so lively 1 month ago:
I’m in Valencienne right now, small city in north of France, just got here for a project, and boy people are on fire. Had no clue about the game before today lol, but I feel this was the was the day to arrive in France. I watch the game from my Hotel, but I went out when the fireworks started. It’s almost midnight and the streets are full of people.
Funny thing is my partner is litteraly from Paris (but we live in Montréal) and even her didn’t really know about the game… I guess we’re not sport people lol.

That game is something else. Music by Pauline Oliveros is half of the game’s magic.
- Comment on Anon blames millennials 2 months ago:
I almost never pay more than 5$ for a game, get the free game from epic each week since last year, and I have hundreds of amazing games in my livrary. I litteraly could stop working and play super fun games 24/7 for the next 2-3 years without spending a dime. Up to a last year, I was litteraly playing on an overclocked i5 750 (16 y/o cpu) with a 1060i gpu, and can’t think of a game that wasn’t playable. I even worked on a small VR project on that computer lol.
- Comment on Anon blames millennials 2 months ago:
There’more great games now then ever there ever was. So many choices. Plus, the older games didn’t disapear and there is no such thing as “the Golden Age of gaming” lol. It’s just that a bunch of low- losers are spending their days on the internet crying about “woke runing my videagame” because they see a woman not having huge boobs and a bikini armor.

I’ll try to help… But that might imply cutting my monthly donation to Wikipedia, which seems like a bad timing since they are under attack by the the tech oligarchs.
Keep up the good work. Thanks!

As an alpha male, I can only cum when I look at another alpha male straight in the eyes while holding an alpha male’s cock in each of my hand. We call it T-blast, you need to do it at least twice a week to keep your level high.

Mix it with cool aid powder. Don’t thank me ;)

- Comment on Should we boycott games with loot boxes? 2 months ago:
They have been the most profitable business *per employee" for a long period, and they definitively are in still in the top. They have under 200 employees and generate billions in revenu because of loot boxes and because they take 30% on every games, while many studios have hundred of employees on a single game lol.
Now I had that conversation dozens of time with gamers and I won’t do it again, but steam fucking sucks. At this point, it’s basically like arguing with a trump voter, nothing anyone can say will make them change their mind.
- Comment on Should we boycott games with loot boxes? 2 months ago:
I dont know what Fut is and I don’t really care. Steam is the most profitable business in the US, they shouldn’t get kids addicted to gambling is my point, nor should any other game.
- Comment on Should we boycott games with loot boxes? 2 months ago:
Yes.
