Funny how half a year changes things. I'm definitely switching to Linux for the new computer. Enough is enough. And I don't even use full windows, I'm always on the LTSC variety.

What Ya' Playin' ? I'm starting this thread so that people can tell others what they are currently playing. Perhaps, even join an online game with someone else if they desire. Discuss said game that is being played (or popular) The key concept is what you are currently playing. This will change of course over time. This thread is also not intended for a review of the game beyond some basics. For a real and proper review of a game, please feel free to create a post on said game, unless one is already created for that game. PLEASE, IF THERE IS ANY INFORMATION ON ACTUAL GAME PLAY OR CHOICES, PLACE THESE IN A SPOILER SO AS TO NOT SPOIL THE GAME FOR OTHERS. For those that are new and don't know. Push the icon of an eye, then place your comments or other things inside the box that is created. Thank You.

First time I've LMAO in months, lol.

I mean.. we're all in a transitional phase right now I think. Most countries are getting older population wise and this creates a need for workers (general labor) to come from somewhere. But the amount and where they come from being allowed are just completely disproportionate to what's actually needed. Effectively, the globalists want to overwhelm every country in an effort to destroy national identity/culture. PPl finally realized this and are rightfu;lly deeply upset about it. What's baffling is where this problem came from in the first place. I have a lot of theories on this. One of them is that this "plan" has been in place for decades now.

I'm so excited not to care!

I knew it. I just didn't think I'd see it so soon. Literally a surprising percentage of our world that cannot (and absolutely refuses to try) to think for themselves. Thank you ChatGPT. Oh, and all that's left is mariage of A.I. "sexbots" to some really hot chassis already available. Now that part I can get behind, lol. Not as a replacement mind you. Just for "experimentation" purposes only. Really!!

New idea: You receive a quest from a powerful wizard who cured a master vampire of vampirism. The problem is that he still has the power to enthrall people, and he has created a small harem of female servants with his power. Your job is to kill him and free the women. If you're playing as a man, it's a simple quest: kill him, get a cool two-handed sword, and go back to killing dragons. If you're playing as a woman, you'll be enthralled, and that's where the fun begins. Due to your dragon blood, you randomly snap out of the charm, which gives you an opportunity to permanently break the mental hold he has on you with the help of the wizard who gave you the quest. However, your freedom from the vampire is temporary, and you will do quests for him while under his spell. Actually, you will be doing quests for both sides, and if you complete one side's quests before the other's, you may free yourself or become permanently enthralled by your new master.

for those that might want to start to learn without an added computer to test on.

Quick tip: if you need to use the Steam console with Bottles, add steam.exe (if it's not there already) to your program shortcuts. Click the vertical ellipses on the right to show the options menu, then click 'Change launch options'. There is a field called 'Command Arguments'; enter -console and save. The next time you launch Steam with your Bottle, the console will appear in your Steam menu. Now that I have figured this out, I can downgrade Fallout 4.

I tried multiple virtual machines. The one that supported GPU passthrough was QEMU, but I couldn't quite figure it out. I found another one that supported GPU passthrough, but I was too burnt out to give it a try.

There is new bullshit happeing now. I am getting a warning about windoze being outdated and giving a countdown. Now if that happened on the actual windoze computer that would be one thing but it is happening on a windoze 11 computer. A WINDOWS 11 computer. Now lets fill in some background. This is a work computer. At work they have NO WINDOWS 10 MACHINES. Get that. So it can't be that they are seeing my computer and knowing there is a windows 10 machine on the system. There aren't any. I had to shut that down mutiple times today when I opened anything related to microsoft. (I believe mostly Outlook) for work. A blue bar across the top that messes with the information and other stuff. You have to address it if you want full control and get to business. Seriously, they need to go out of business and their source code released so that other operatiing systems that respect people can access it and make it compatable for older windoze software.

Currently playing Drive Beyond Horizons. I decided not to post it in the gaming thread because it's full of bugs. Still early access. Similar to beth games as it adds objects with physics. You can imagine how weird shit happens ingame... Currently editing a video to upload tomorrow or so. The game itself is linear. It's about driving on a highway and finding parts for your vehicle. There are a moderate amount of vehicles to choose from. You start off with one car, find points of interest and sometimes they will have a vehicle. You can mix parts between vehicles. it uses procedurial generation, but also seeding so that every time you start over, the POI aren't always in the same spots. Currently these are the vehicles you can use in game. Based off of real life cars. Also a small trailer is added. There are plans for more classic cars. It has about 4 radio stations you can tune into. Those were A.I. generated except for the music as it is produced by their sound designer, akadz. https://drivebeyondhorizons.wiki.gg/wiki/Cars Hoping they will add more genres. I would add suggestions, but i don't do discord.

I'm giving up on the virtual machine for now. I can easily set one up, but GPU passthrough is too complicated for my monkybrain to understand. Instead, I'm going to resurrect my old ASRock 970 PC and install Windows 7 on it. Basically, I'm only going to run two programs on it. Interestingly, when I took a look at the CPU to see what it was, I noticed some bent pins. That's probably why it was randomly shutting down on me. The good thing about old hardware is that you can get better parts cheaply. I'm basically doing a mini upgrade with parts that would have been out of my price range over a decade ago.

I will start. I recently started playing The Walking Dead. Only played the first episode. (it was free on Xbox). It is pretty good but can get boring pretty quickly. Didn't have the profound changes due to your actions as I was under the impression that it was going to be. However, There are many episodes and perhaps the choices compound across the many episodes. There were a few changes that were noticeable. I enjoyed the game but only briefly. Not worth the full price that they had the game at when it was released years ago IMO, but good for free or if you find you like it, 5 bucks or less. I'm bouncing around and might play a different game today. This episode was very short. Not wanting to pay for the next one, at least now. Maybe later?

Check your emails if you are concerned.

I'd rather have Linux problems than Windows problems.

Dumb ass clout chasers... Good for Japan. They don't need to tolerate this crap.

LOL. I posted this thinking I would hate the Garuda Linux default theme, but it turns out that I actually like it.

It's the year of Linux... at least for Denmark — here's why the country's government is dumping Windows and Office 365 https://www.windowscentral.com/software-apps/windows-11/its-the-year-of-linux-at-least-for-denmark-heres-why-the-countrys-government-is-dumping-windows-and-office-365

Dam... you need flux when you solder. Even I know that. lol Jokes aside. Smart kid indeed. The dude make a pipboy.
