Okay then go use a vpn and buy YouTube premium from turkey it’s £13 a year that’s what I did.

Depends on the time of the year,

During the summer I’d have one before and after work, during winter once a day or once every two days

I wouldn’t consider a 8700k or a 2080 super high level specs or even mid level right now.

Consider that an 8700k is slower than a 13400f today which is considered the absolute lower end of the mid range, realistically 13600k or 13700 is the mid range on the intel side.

To be blunt the 8700k is 5 years old.

The 2080s is well look at this chart and you make a decision

I think a lot of people are just not appreciative of how out of date their hardware is relative to consoles atm

If anything that’s nonsense, iPhones are cheaper and easier to get repaired and far less to failure and I say this as someone who runs a store that sells phones.

Because the phones just fucking work

I’d only change one thing and say most of the problems for Iran started because of the UK/US being imperialistic and has never recovered as a result

So I was one of those back in 06 and I’m in my mid to late 30s now.

I don’t use Facebook anymore and stopped using Facebook a decade ago because of all the timeline changes.

My guess is they’ve continued to make the timeline stuff worse and worse and that’s why people stop posting cause you don’t actually see each others posts half the time it’s filled with random suggested shit.

The 200-300 range has been dead really since the 5600xt and the crypto boom.

Second hand at the 400 mark they’re insane with the 6800XT

I’m half way on that journey, went from Rpi4 to M2 Mac Mini to host docker stuff and god knows how much in hard drives.

Really should look at used ones

I have never understand exactly what it is that people need/desire/require out of Firefox that they find missing but which a Chrome based browser is providing them.

The ability to log into any computer on chrome and load my profile, which gives access to my bookmarks and passwords.

As someone who has 4 chrome profiles due to work remote managing 3 of them that I use daily, Firefox will never be able to handle that.

if Firefox had some sort of cloud sync that wasn’t oh hey you need to have multiple devices to make it work and just gave you a way to do it through the browser properly with even a paid option that would help.

When my m2 air is eventually supported by linuxbproperly the debian installation will happen.

AD Free YouTube is great tbh, it is generally a good experience no matter what device you use then throw in the claim it supports the content creators more seems like win win

Honestly I bought YouTube premium through a VPN to turkey for that price for the entire year. Seems worth it.

I used IRC daily religiously for 15 years, but around 2011 I just stopped and never got back into using it. The client of choice was Xchat.

I don’t think the size difference works in the favour of lmg.

If gamers nexus puts out pretty much industry leading day one reviews out on every launch with 5-6 people and LMG with labs and 100+ employees can’t then there’s something wrong.

GN has a point LMG shits out videos without QC and it’s starting to bite them of late. The water block review is the perfect example of just being stupid. Why not just test the item with the right product and judge it for what it is as opposed to turning it into a joke review where no matter what the product is going to look bad.

The short circuit thing with the mouse is also a bit ridiculous.

But the charts are the main thing, I’ve noticed it myself over the years that lmg charts made no sense relative to gamers nexus or HUb or even jayz 2 cents which meant something was wrong with the testing.

Yeah Steve steve and Wendell would be an amazing trio, Gordon is also really good but he can be a bit rage heavy for me

Apple Pay every day, and before that Google Pay. I haven’t really used cash in years.

There’s a very rare exception for like one store I visit that requires cash with an ATM next-door so I just pay by cash then but otherwise I’m using my phone/watch for all payments.

I got mine on release day and I’m currently at 93% it does seem a bit much.

If you have a pi kicking around or a docker instance of pihole you can use it to take over dhcp of the router and then set the dns servers in pihole.

That’s what I do currently on my home hub

Well there’s the fact that it’s somewhat true as for example if you use a chromium based browser on Linux hardware acceleration isn’t enabled by default and borderline doesn’t work a lot of the time.

Doesn’t sound so bad till you realise what it does to battery life on a laptop.

I love Linux and we are so close but it’s small things like that, which prevent me getting friends and family to use it consistently.
