The playstation sticks are better positioned at the center, but the x360 controller is more comfortable to use.
Personally unless you play only on playstation, on PC the only controller that works in all games is the xbox one.

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

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.

I got 64GB of spare ddr4 3200mhz
should I sell or should I hold?
what is your expert assessment?

>>107544577
Maybe in the current market having spare RAM is a good thing if your current hardware fails.
>>
>>107545031
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.

they've effectively made Tor/VPN mandatory with the recent age verification law. i literally don't know anyone who actually scans their face every time they need a wank.
>>
So here's what we do. Create an American company for the sole purpose of selling VPN access to British children. Accept crypto currency as payment. Advertise for free via word of mouth on Discord and other chat groups. Change the domain name every time the UK government forces ISPs to block us. Send all complaints from OFCOM to /dev/null.

What can they do about this?

>It's the other languages who have no compatibility with established languages like C.
C broke all the compatibility with established languages like FORTRAN, COBOL, ALGOL, BASIC, and PL/I. For example VMS has descriptors for arrays, strings, labels, procedures, and other data types that work for all the languages that were around at the time, and are similar to how newer languages like Common Lisp, Python, Java, and JavaScript do strings, arrays, and functions or procedures, but C can't use them. These descriptors were designed for natural interop between languages, but C had to be a special snowflake and force everyone who wants to interop with C to do things the unnatural C way, when the other languages were just naturally compatible by picking the same convention for the same data types they all shared.

(((They))) like opinionated UX, using burgers, carousels, accordions, popups because the app/site seeks attention and there is a need to hide important information under click to reveal. The users are not supposed to complain that it is time wasting.

Not him but it's true, Go is a language specifically designed to make use of cheap labour and get low iq monkeys to program half working websites without php.

A good language is Standard ML, fully specified without strange corner cases in the specification where compilers could disagree. Clean design without awkward feature bloat or pointless restrictions, for example in go const only works at the toplevel for some random reason. Superior module system. The compiler doesn't make web requests, etc. it's just infinitely better. Only problem is nobody uses it and there are few libraries, so go is probably more pragmatic for most.
