Blaster M

I’m sorry, but I would have that drive maxed out in a week, even if I only use on demand cloud storage. Go 1TB or go home.

Every single kid in class: “…”

Debian stable let’s goooooo

It’s an option on the latest Android - anti-theft measures. It reboots / locks your phone if it detects grab and go activity - using your phone and thief grabs your phone and runs. It also does it if the internet is turned off.

Go Pro, and get the most amount of RAM possible. That guarantees longevity by minimizing obsolesence.

Microsoft Flight Simulator: A whole airplane on the couch

It does, as DDR5 comes with rudimentary ECC protection builtin.

My problem is this is an AM4 system using DDR4 memory… already outdated.

Turns out vehicle simulations are hard. You either have games that play like a cabinet arcade or require a “simmer” setup (control cockpit) to really be good at.

And then there’s the work that goes into the level of detail. Example, Forza Horizon 5 doesn’t even have the underside of most cars modelled, to save on polys and performance, but there’s still a lot of little details that have to be modelled, textured, and sound recorded. This is even more important when a driving game goes into VR, because you will notice when something in the interior is missing or offmodel.

Also shoutout to Live For Speed, the active-since-Windows-XP open beta / early access mediumcore simulation that’s had VR support for a long while, and a release date that will probably coincide with Half Life 3.

last access time

If you’re running it thru the FUSE driver perhaps…proprietary ntfs drivers absolutely rip

Also make sure last access time is turned off, that is a nice auditing feature for opsec, but it slows things down for the normal user. It should be off by default above 256GB drive sizes.

“But daaad, I wanna be a three phase”

Interesting to see how many features NTFS does support

So basically if Elite and NMS had EVE’s player economy…

… and here I just upgraded my windows / linux laptops to 32gb unified memory ram…

edit: salty downvoters don’t know I used to run intel macbooks and would always max out the RAM on them… it made them run good.

Also Windows ran faster than macOS on the same systems.

Well it definitely isn’t Chicago

Yeah, it’s quite the Poison to experience.

The whole point of this option existing is to keep the system from auto install/reboot in the middle of work. You’re telling the machine when it’s not okay to do this… so you’re the one in control.

Going from the bleeps and bloops of the 8-bit gaming era to VR is quite a leap. VR was the realm of scifi, and now it exists as a reality. Is it perfect? No, and the steep psychological learning curve can be off-putting to some, but it’s really good even as it is now.

So… no one’s about Battlestar Galactica?
