No big surprise here, stars/star reviews are in general completely worthless. I don't really even bother with them anymore.

Similar to this guy I haven't used windows to play games for around 2 years now. I have around 30-40 games and I haven't found a game that doesn't work, yet...

Just had a similar issue a few days ago, where my system would freeze and spent 2 days trying to solve it. Ran a memory test, no issues. Tried NVIDIA drivers 470,535 and 550 with different combinations of the kernel including 6.x and 5.x (make sure you're using generic). Issue was still there, grabbed a copy of windows and tried it there, same issue. That narrowed it down to a hardware issue. Started tweaking the bios and found the problem was a pcie gen issue, my motherboard was automatically setting it to 5 which was causing the crash I set it to 3, no more problems. You could use the same techniques to narrow down your problem as well. (Nothing was ever reported in any logs since it was a hard freeze, which made this a huge pain in the ass to fix)

This should be it's own post. Thanks!

Any "Gaming" headphones they are all such trash. Buy a nice pair of headphones with a quality metal headband and get an audio cable with a built in mic.

Ya, i have done that before if I have the option, lol. But if i've gone through the drive through, a lot of the time I don't. I actually make all my coffee at home now, so I don't really have to deal with this anymore.

this 👆 dual boot doesn't always work because windows can be finicky with boot partitions as well as boot partition security issues. Save yourself a headache if you want to go back, just pop your current drive out, and put it in a external case so you can access the files. Hard drives are cheap.

Thanks for the heads up!

Look at all the people that actually came to witness this...🫤

Great article, thanks!

Wow, such a cool concept. I grew up in a city of around the same size, (~100k) it would have been incredible to go from one end to the other without having to worry about being hit by a car on my bike.

I think this is a good conversation to have, I'm assuming there are no security checks to make sure instances connecting to each other are legitimately released and code reviewed by the community? I'm also curious if you could run a malicious instance that garners a lot more information from your users than is necessary or uses security holes to gather information from other instances. This could send this entire experiment down the toilet very fast. For instance HTTPS guarantees you are connecting to who they say they are and are from a trusted source. At the very least it would be nice to be able to have control over your credentials and history, and only release it to trusted instances.
