  • My favorite trick to reviving old computers is trying to find ways to get them to run off of solid state storage. It really makes a huge difference. You will be surprised by how much more tolerable classic computers are when you no longer have to deal with slow storage mediums.

    Mind you this doesn’t make them modern levels of fast and you no longer get the satisfaction of hearing the hard drive grinding away when you open a window but thems the tradeoffs…sigh…




  • Everybody who plays videogames has had this experience

    Pay 70$ for a game:

    • it’s digital only
    • comes loaded with Micro transactions
    • grinding mechanics that have a pay to skip function
    • single player campaign: 13 hours
    • buggy and unfinished glitches and freezes
    • PC port locked at 30fps, runs Denuvo.
    • gets removed from my library in a few years because “It’s too expensive to maintain and licensing reasons”

    “I’m never getting ripped off like this again”

    STUDIO executive “I wonder why no one wants to buy these games… Must be the price.”
