Battlezone 2: Combat Commander. When I started playing that, my brother and I had to face each other and use our laptops’ infrared ports.

Oh, interesting. I was not familiar with Bazzite. I have a tiny Dell Optiplex hooked up to my living room TV, I was going to put Linux on there soon anyways. I wonder if that would be a good candidate for Bazzite.

Hah, nope it isn’t an Intel. I’m currently fighting with my wife’s old workstation that I’m trying to use as a Linux gaming rig. It has an i7 9700 in it, and it just does not want to run under 82C in game. I replaced the old thermal paste, added two (larger) case fans, and moved the HDD to improve airflow. I can try a better low-profile cooler, but I really don’t know if that’s going to do it either. Short of water cooling, which would mean new case as well, I don’t know what to do.

A fellow Steelcase fan. Awesome. What’s yours?

I’d just get a chair that’s comfortable without any add-ons. I have a Steelcase Leap V2 at home, and a Steelcase Amia at work. I can and have sat in these for 16hrs plus in a day. Tempurpedic also has nice, thick butt cushions in their chairs at a fraction of the price.

I have nipples, Greg, could you milk me? I mean… would you? Please…?

I love Moonlight. I just switched over to Linux and haven’t gotten my Moonlight host set up yet. But it’s on my to-do list. What do you use to stream it? I’m rocking a Powkiddy RGB30. The square screen squishes stuff a little, but it’s pretty cool to play Astroneer on something so tiny.

For me, it’s a several hour process. I enjoy the cable management, for one thing. I like to handle each component as carefully as if I’m assembling a nuclear bomb. Idk, it’s a fun therapeutic process that I like to take my time with.

Well, except for the last one I built. Which is basically just crammed in however I could get stuff to fit. Had to bust out the angle grinder for the graphics card to make it in. Had to relocate the hard drive cage. Cable management is just enough so they aren’t rubbing on any fans. I have rubber shims wedged under the Blu-ray drive to prevent rattling in the stupid tool free drive bay. It’s a disaster in there. But it usually doesn’t get over 70C in game, so I’m not going to mess with it.

That would require making a reddit account. Ew.

I’m sure somebody had to watch that. Not me, but somebody.

I still have one of those somewhere!

Then post into the void until some other like-minded degenerate finds you. You need to create the meeting point!

Please go stand by your stairs.

I wish that had an accurate view count, and upload date. But it’s another pre-YouTube classic, and I’d rather link the upload to the creator’s rather than the first re-upload somebody did.

At least there is dinner and dancing.

So be it. I should be able to text one handed without stretching my thumb through inhuman effort to reach the “a” key.

I have a Galaxy S24 Plus. My three gripes with it are that it is too big, no headphone jack, and no SD card slot. Really, being too big is the worst. I miss smaller phones. Like the Galaxy S6. My favorite phone was probably either my ZTE Axon 7, which had fantastic front facing stereo speakers and a nice aluminum body, or my HTC Vivid with its horizontal dock.

For an extra 20, you can put Gulikit hall effect joycon sticks in it. And for a few dollars more, there’s a spot on the board to solder and mount a haptic feedback motor. Still under $100. You want to get extra crazy, you could fit a small usb wireless adapter inside it. Still trying to figure out how to get stereo sound. But at the point of all those mods, you could get an RG35XX.

Automation stealing our jobs again. My grandpa was a penis inspector. He worked long, hard hours to put three kids through school and food on the table.

Just go into a high paying field, and move somewhere that won’t be affected as badly. The apocalypse is BYOB, so start prepping.

At the very least. I’d go so far as to say letters up to and including double G would be desirable.
