With a magnitude of additional potential customers.
- Comment on Playnix: Boutique Linux PC released with better gaming performance than Valve Steam Machine 3 days ago:
My minimum for a games drive is 1TB.
I don’t have a Gbit in download speeds. So I don’r want to download games every 5 days just so I can play something else. - Comment on Playnix: Boutique Linux PC released with better gaming performance than Valve Steam Machine 3 days ago:
Costing…how much?
I can alao compare a city car with a super car.
Obviously has no merit but hey: Who cares ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ - Comment on The person who mounted a spice rack into the fucking studs so a fridge won't fit there 1 week ago:
Who’d need that anyway.

I guess? - Comment on Forza Horizon 6 requirements are out 2 weeks ago:
Never tried but. Why why should it matter from where I launch it?
Maybe it could matter for MS store games as they are super overbearing with locking down the game folder with permissions for “TrustedInstaller” equal to linux superuser

Werent those always slop?

This is how I always pictured those TV tray foods:

Now show how much they cost and the nutrition on top.
If it’s 10€ for those and I crave more sustenance after 2 hours it’s not worth it. Same problem if it’s as healthy as a chocolate bar. - Comment on Hands-on with the Retroid Pocket 6; The 8GB Sweet Spot (my own article/interview!) 2 weeks ago:
The joke is that 90% of the people who buy these don’t either! They just spend all their time setting things up ‘just so’, setting up new front-ends, tweaking settings, scraping covers then curating ROMs lists :P
How DARE you to call me out like that >:(
- Comment on Hands-on with the Retroid Pocket 6; The 8GB Sweet Spot (my own article/interview!) 2 weeks ago:
I always thing about buying the Ayn Thor.
I do have the money to buy it but I debate always if I’d use it more than a more general device like my phone or my already existing SteamDeck.On the one hand, it’s way more portable than a steamdeck but 300€ isnt free money either ;-;
My recommendation: If you’d buy a laptop to play on the couch, etc. etc. that isnt your desk with your PC, than a steamdeck might be worth it.
If you primarily play mouse games like shooters: It’s complicated. IMO it’s more meant for gamepad games or at best in a dock with a mouse/keyboard separatly. - Comment on 2 weeks ago:
My only use case would be to see what is or was going on at the moment. But more for the fun or curiosity of it than actual security
- Comment on [Technology Connections] Don't overthink electric car charging (we should be doing it differently) [52:12] 2 weeks ago:
it’s an IMO valid point to raise if you are very likely to have surprise trips that can take >150km in each direction. Not very hard to achieve in a day of work.
Additionally the fluctuations of summer vs winter range. Our work EV slashes the summer range of >300km by 0.5-0.6 resulting in a range between 200-180km depending on the temperature and street elevation. - Comment on It hurts. 2 weeks ago:

OG says repaints
New one would say essentially removed paint.
- Comment on Forza Horizon 6 requirements are out 3 weeks ago:
Don’t quite believe a 3070 outperforms a PS5 (is the peo a thing?) or the series X.
But I also havent looked into it so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯For anything else: True dat ;)
- Comment on Forza Horizon 6 requirements are out 3 weeks ago:
Don’t consoles include dynamic render resolutions?
And they are also more optimized to run on that hardware vs the general compute targets you can program your API calls to.So just saying the RTX-something is equal in every scenario is a bit of a stretch.
- Comment on Forza Horizon 6 requirements are out 3 weeks ago:
Idk mate…Thwy state pretty clearly that only Windows10/11 are supported as an OS.
Supported being the key word here. Nobody forces you to comply with it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (Just don’t expect support when something doesnt work) - Comment on Search results for “megusta”. 4 weeks ago:
Internet culture ≠ general audience.
There arent that many (compared to the real world persons) that will be able to know those references.Stop assuming everyone is terminally online and wired into the current meme cycle.

Nope…

Now add a kernel, a filesystem and a few more features and you have a full OS.
Dude, this is a browser. Anything beyond the notes feature is uneccessary bloat and can be outsourced to add-ons.

The “Ge” stands for Geheime.
That means secret or covert.They are not very covert.
- Comment on Jeans Vendor, what is my size? 2 months ago:
What I find very weird tbh.
When I buy pants, there are essentially two measurements:
In-seam length and waist circumference (and usually the manufacturer shows where to measure it in a picture).So far I had no issues shopping by pre-measuring before doing the online shopping.
- Comment on Jeans Vendor, what is my size? 2 months ago:
My usual strategy:
Go into the store, try it on, note the sizes of the company you want to buy from, buy wherever you want to (if you can, support your local company and not Amazon or adjacent) - Comment on Did anyone else skip Rayman 1 as a Kid? 2 months ago:
I skipped Rayman.
Except for playing a demo. Not sure if it was on my 3DS (likely) or on PC. - Comment on Steam Hardware: Launch timing and other FAQs - Steam News 2 months ago:
The GPU peices have risen before crypto.
Not as much but it was only a matter of time. - Comment on Steam Hardware: Launch timing and other FAQs - Steam News 2 months ago:
More like 3 years until the market demand is satisfied and the prices can normalize.
Remember, foundries mentioned they were booked well beyond 2026.
