Instead of a regular backpack can I just bring a parachute as my carryon?

Go play any modern indie game. You'll need at least a 1050ti for it to run well. The graphics are good, sure. Now go play something that runs on an open source 3d engine such as Ogre or irrlicht. Tux Kart is a good example of a modernized open source game and Xonotic gets mentioned a lot too (I don't know/didn't research what 3d engine Xonotic uses). You'll get playable performance even if your gpu is trash and the graphics are actually pretty good. If the game you picked has potato ass shit graphics then congratulations you only need a pc that's 20 years old or newer to run it. Gpu prices are eating gamers alive and it's getting to the point where the common person isn't going to be able to play modern pc games anymore if system requirements in games just keep getting higher and higher. They can't even figure out how to supply more electricity to graphics cards without the wires melting from all the current. Wtf even is their end game?

If professional game developers don't start making performance a priority the Linux nerds will start developing games the same way they made foss replacements for all the unfair paid software. I'm tired of buying computer parts. Video game graphics are already as good as they're going to get (photorealism for fuck sake), they aren't getting better but system requirements are getting higher. If this trend continues it will radicalize more people into supporting open source projects instead.

I don't think anyone is putting bitcoin miners in their games. I just think it's unfair that system requirements for everything seem to be getting higher, gpu prices are always getting higher but the graphics we actually get for it all aren't even a worth it.

Thank fuck. This won't be the last attempt at this level of surveillance. Pay attention to open source games because some day things will be so enshittified that avoiding AAA games and only playing regular indie games still won't be enough.

Open source games never need the same gpu requirements that indie games need, just food for thought. Unity is respectably efficient but it's no where near as efficient as for example Tux Kart. They really have 3d performance figured out on some of those open source rendering engines.

Maybe stop treating the common person like utter dogshit. Play stupid games win stupid prizes.

I am trying to use wifi for "everything". I know it's bad but there is no honest to goodness way I can get ethernet to anything except the router and modem. It's complicated. Even a 60hz ac to ethernet wall plug transceiver has to go through enough breakers and stuff it's not worth trying.

I forgot which exact router I have but it's basically the highest end Cisco home router that works with dd wrt. It usually costs $300 on amazon. My internet connection is dsl but I'm not trying to get higher internet speeds, just higher lan speeds.

If my low effort network setup only yields me a maximum of 7mbytes/sec I'm fine with it I just want to be able to get more than 1 meg per second on the one system that needs it the most.

Do you want the government to commit genocide or do you want to government to commit genocide but also to some of the American people? Shit sucks either way but I can't vote for someone who might send members of my family to camps.

Is jellyfin good? Several years ago I wrote a very basic php search system and then made another php script to generate a clickable list of every video file in a directory. These 2 put together makes a better than nothing media server that I can use with confidence knowing it's probably really secure and not sending any data to anyone on the internet.

My setups lan transfer speed is slow all the time for reasons beyond my understanding so I have to find a way to fix that first before I can think about changing my media server software anyway. My 1mb/s download/1.2mb/s upload speed on my server and 4-7mb/s for each other pc is good enough to watch some stuff but it really sucks that after overhead and performance losses, that's all that's left of my 400mbits/sec wifi connection. I barely even use it and don't have any non Linux pcs on my network so it's not like it's slow due to actual traffic. Router and wifi card manufacturers are scamming us all. Divide any advertizered wireless network speed by 64 and that's the maximum you can expect in my experience.

There's no reason any military needs more than a 10 round icbm mag

Shrinkflation came for the imperial system, I'm afraid. 10 inches is the new metric foot.

My cats are friends with the opossums and skunks. Fuck the coons though they're jackasses.

This is not how to succeed when fighting a war against marijuana and opioids.
