Does anyone else remember when this board had its anti-gaming phase? People here acted like video games were a waste of time and you're a faggot if you spend even a second playing videogames, but those same people watched hours upon hours of anime, which is no better than video games in terms of productivity or "wasting your time"
You can tell it stemmed from the fact that Linux couldn't really run games. When proton came and gaming on Linux became infinitely easier, people started acting like gaming is fine.
Very odd era

but it's not like there weren't any games before proton
steam on linux was already a thing and most indies were releasing on linux (it was just a matter of hitting a button for most of them)
you didn't have much choice of what to play but if you wanted aaa, feral & vp were constantly doing new releases, it was arguably a more exciting time than now.

A hobby should satisfy advancement of a personal attribute: physical, creative, mental, and/or social.
Depending on the types of PC games you play it can satisfy 3 of the 4, and maybe some day, exergames and VR might actually make an inroad in the physical category someday.
Creative would need be something like learning modeling, CAD, etc or building games.
Social because playing games with comms and games focused on group gameplay.
Mental depending on support can be puzzles or even certain strategy games and management.

>>107548009
>PC games you play it can satisfy 3 of the 4
You're stretching things enormously.
> Mental
Almost all games are absolutely trivial in comparison to real life pursuits and that's pretty much a requirement for popularity and commercial viability. Even your beloved strategy games are almost always trivial and in competitive settings largely come down to quick execution learned through monotonous repetition.
> Social
You're socializing almost exclusively with the worst humanity has to offer.
> Creative
This is somewhat true but the output is worthless by almost any metric.
>>
>>107548110
>Worst humanity has to offer
Get some IRL friends to group game.
>Even your beloved strategy games
It's the variety in the genre and manipulating for outcomes in 4x titles, but can become a game of menus if I'm being honest (which is boring). When you're new to a game you're creating new neuronal pathways, like brushing your teeth with your left hand for the first times. If a game is a challenge to manipulate (outside of false challenges due to RNG retardation), it is beneficial. At the point it becomes monotonous or job-like, it should be abandoned, sure.

open in terminal is under the actions header in that image. however you can also just select dolphin and press alt+shift+f4 as a hotkey.

ctrl+alt+t will also open a terminal with a pwd of /home/$USER

Yes, but a lot of what you'd find the STL, you're stuck with yet another dependency or reinventing. In that sense, it's a better C++ but it's intended to give you as little standard library as C.

>>
>>107546022
Plants use the whole spectrum of RGB green is just less efficient for splitting molecules so they reflect it more often to offset heat. Most colored LEDs are just white ones with filters anyway so it's not like you're saving power.
>>
>>107547827
White is created through a filter.
I doubt anyone puts a second filter to sell colored reds because producing red leds is just a matter of not using a filter in first place. Thats why red leds were the cheapest.
>>
>>107546319
Another benefit of green light, which makes white better than purple, is canopy penetration. And cannabis has a thick canopy.

For all of you out of the loop and that have not heard of Bruce Bugbee, he has many lectures online for free. Watch them and you will see the light.

I hope you get a nice $100 deal on mechmarkets for a barely used set. Maybe put up some WTB posts on your local Discord groups. You can get lucky when you least expect it, I know I did when I got the CDATA base kit in absolute mint condition, original packaging and all, for like $90. Never imagined I'd get it, much less like this.

Share your experiences with trying—or thinking about trying—Linux. What made you switch, or what stopped you from switching? Considering that Win10 died not too long ago and all I've only been hearing bad stuff from Win11

Some things to consider (but feel free to rant about anything else)

Hardware/software issues: drivers crapping out, apps/games not working?

Learning curve: was the CLI or setup too intimidating?

Community: any gatekeeping or confusing forums?

Work/school: stuff forcing you to stick with Windows/Mac?

Fragmentation: too many distros, inconsistent experiences?

Made this thread because I need more data for my graduation thesis lol. Personally, I already made the jump to arch and nixos since August. Honest answers are appreciated

Nigger you have access to /g/, but not an online marketplace? You don't have to go to the dark web to sell ur RAM anon.

>>107544577
In my country marketplace is like wall street stock room. The people buying right now has to be speculators. Which means a few people will have a lot of stock. Therefore I certainly would not be holding a lot of RAM towards the end of the RAMpocalypse, as suddenly people will figure out that they need to be selling. Also a lot of people are probably dusting off old RAM to sell right now.

I'm aiming for the start-mid game to sell mine. It's all driven by official vendors though, so you just watch that. Also any kind of disturbance by MOBO manufacturers.

Most stuff is going up in price though because DRAM is fairly universal, so best deals are probably had to other items.
