By doing all the things

Which bit?

For CS2, especially around launch, this was advice fed to me multiple times on places like the linux gaming subreddit. And then also through my own experience of trying it out and comparing.

Black Mesa, this was also just known within the Half Life and Linux gaming communities. Plus if you tried playing the native you would start to hit your first set of visual bugs within the first 5mins, switching to Proton solved basically every issue lol.

And just to add on to this, CS2 has been shown to perform better under Proton than running it natively.

And yes I know before anyone points it out that VAC doesn’t work under Proton, but you can still try it out on a private no VAC server. Or, the way some people were doing it around the time CS2 launched (assuming this still works), installing Steam via Wine and then launching CS2 with Proton worked as well with VAC working.

And another example of using Proton over the native version of a game would be Black Mesa, where it was always advised to run the game with Proton due to less bugs and far better performance.

Oh but he will find that mail

Yeah OP definitely needs a better hobby lol

Yeah this is pretty much smack on.

I’m an IT Consultant that works 99% remote (occasionally in the office, but they are trying to get us in more), temp contractors I see tend to have the highest amount of freedom but lose on the job security, us permanent hires have to seek permission to travel and work, but have our job security.

Then there are the client requirements as well, some demand on site consultants every day, others occasionally, then the majority in my experience are more than happy with pure remote work.

We working at the same place are we?

My company will start to give reminders 5 minutes beyond their arbitrary ‘deadline’, but will take months and months and months to sign off on a promotion…

Okay… Want to elaborate on that?

2007 MSN was still very popular for high school students here in Australia

Actual discussion is still possible in the Fediverse, at least for now.

Somewhat recently I was talking to a close friend about their brother and how he has been acting, particularly how he approaches discussions with those around him. My friend was telling me about a discussion they were having, and the only response his brother could give him was “you are uneducated and misinformed”, but couldn’t actually formulate an argument to back up his side. I physically laughed when he told me this and jokingly responded that he “sounds like a standard Reddit user”, my friend paused for a second, chuckled, then replied “he basically lives on that site”.

I’m yet to have this kind of online interaction on the Fediverse, and that is nice ☺️

“Bullshit I missed that parry! These fucking devs”

The Nintendo Wii.

Like so many, I fell to the marketing hype. Was completely bored of the thing after like a week. Where it was definitely some peoples cup of tea, it was most certainly not mine

Have you tried either Summit or Blorp?

Summit is my favourite pick, but Blorp is fantastic and was that for Lemmy for quite a while before switching. Summit feels a bit more modern and clean to me.

I have very fond memories of this game also. And your post made me realise this is another title that I’m missing from my collection… damn

I just made an account on Bookwyrm last week but I’m kind of confused with it. Is it just basically public reviewing of books you’ve read/reading?

They are very clearly “a 40 year old traveling nurses who is a lesbian”

With the added shipping and tax on bringing it into the country, plus postal insurance on an international package like that. Really not worth the time, money and downsides compared to just buying local

It’s already ridiculously expensive for what it is. $700 in store here in Australia

I saw this video show up as well, and it got me thinking what are mine?

I tend to do tonnes of research before buying any tech. But potentially it would be my TP-Link BE6500 WiFi 7 router. Like it works amazingly well, and it solved all of the routing and bandwidth issues with streaming and gaming on WiFi, however I don’t think it was worth the price or headache getting it working.

Otherwise, not sure if we’re regarding this as tech, but I purchased the Illumi Classic IPL device a few months ago. I made the wrong decision here, I should have spent the extra and picked up the Illumi Pro instead.

Not sure of local pricing in your area, but would a ThinkPad T480 or T490 be within budget? The AMD version (I think it might be the T495, someone correct me if I’m wrong) would be my pick personally.
