Oh, I hear you...

Filters can make it so the Mastodon feed doesn't force you to want to walk out into traffic.

EDIT: My suggestion probably doesn't work for your use-case, but I'll leave it for anyone else....

I use this to only tunnel the ports I actually need: https://github.com/DigitallyRefined/docker-wireguard-tunnel

My CGNAT'ed home PC is the client, and my public-facing Oracle Cloud instance is the server.

I've tried and failed miserably to use the "official" Wireguard container. Once I start reading suggestions to modify iptables outside of Docker, I know I'm in trouble.

Look at all those downvotes from people who took offense to this comment, and WANT Steam to have a monopoly.

Yes, corporations bad. But don't forget: Steam is a corporation, too.

PC gamers only care about account linking when it's Sony.

If you don't trust...

  • The Associated Presss (citing US Intelligence),
  • CNN (citing Microsoft), and
  • NPR (citing "an Israeli watchdog group" -- okay, I'll give you this one),

...then who do you trust?

It almost sounds like you're brushing off any media report as "a mouthpiece", and only believing random anonymous posts on the Internet.

My daily trickplay task finished in 1 minute after the update. So apparently not.

It's still active -- save the communities that got kneecapped by mods during the revolt (and sadly, most of those are now Discord-based rather than having any appreciable activity here).

The activity there now is a lot... dumber. Like much of the internet, the ratio of real people to braindead bots on Reddit is a lot different than a few years ago.

For me, entirely the opposite.

I just bought the Lossless Scaling app on Steam for my RTX 3070. That shit is magic on the 144Hz 4K TV that my gaming PC is connected to. I play games exclusively with a gamepad, so I notice absolutely zero input latency.

I have fully drunk the frame gen Kool-Aid.

The PS5 Pro is a decent value compared to a PC. It's just not an amazing value like the original PS5 was in 2020.

Take PCPP's Entry Level AMD Gaming Build. Upgrade it to a 2TB NVME and a RX 6800 GPU. That's $830. ⁨ https://pcpartpicker.com/guide/NtFfrH/entry-level-amd-gaming-build

That's pretty similar specs to the PS5 Pro (with a better Zen 3 CPU, but minus a gamepad).

There seems to be a TikTok campaign where certain people desperately want players to hate this game. I keep seeing this same skinny wispy-bearded dude over & over shitting on the game.

I keep seeing the videos, and what I watch just makes me say "It honestly doesn't look bad to me."

Consoles are $500 gaming machines, generally capable of about 30fps in games. It's no different for Microsoft or Sony.

And Nintendo... Well, Nintendo is Nintendo.

The bean counters have decided that people don't want to spend more than that on videogame consoles. If you want more fps, luckily everything gets a PC port nowadays; and your almost-certainly-more-than-$500 rig can handle that.

It is what it is.
