- Comment on Unexplained crash on real hardware 1 week ago:
If I had to guess, the console was probably not unloading levels properly (software), and was relying on the save/load system to do so.
By playing through 80% of the game without ever saving, you were an edge case the developers never intended for, and the console probably just ran out of RAM.
Trying to load another chunk into already full RAM would trigger an OOM (out of memory) crash.

- Comment on What the Linux desktop really needs to challenge Windows 2 weeks ago:
That’s pretty much what I’ve got yeah… Win-10 LTSE ran through
DeBloatand only Steam installed
It might make sense for me to dual boot *Nix then at some point; last time I did was in the XP Era, and GRUB worked flawlessly
- Comment on What the Linux desktop really needs to challenge Windows 2 weeks ago:
I’m a Windows User (Hello, there are dozens of us)
My laptop is Kubuntu (KDE+Ubuntu)
My college laptop was Linux Mint
My main PC is Win-10 LTSE.
Why: I need exceptional anti-cheat support because I play competitive online PvP shooter games religiously, and Virtual Desktop (VR Streaming Application) doesn’t with under Linux.
Should I think about not doing that and install Bazzite instead?
Well there’s the problem, huh?

- Comment on Steam Replay is live and notes only 14% "of playtime spent by all Steam users" was for 2025 releases 3 weeks ago:
I hate to tell you this, but I had a DDR3 rig in 2011 and two of the four sticks of RAM died in 2021.
That means from regular gaming, the lifespan of RAM is about 10 years.
It’s 2026 next year.

TLDR: I agree with you
It can kill even a AAA game; Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines 2 came out, a sequel to VTM after 12-18 years.
No one had a clue and no one bought it for that reason
The ideal time to release a trailer or promo materials is around 1-2 weeks (4 weeks tops) before the game’s formal release, it gives people time to adjust schedules and/or get word of mouth out or even allocate funds (if they need to)
Half Life 3 could open drop on Steam with zero advertising and people wouldn’t have a clue unless the Steam front page informed them about it
A certain percentage of gamers shamble forwards in a haze of marijuana smoke, whose long term memory or executive function may not be the best

- Comment on RAM is so expensive, Samsung won't even sell it to Samsung 5 weeks ago:
Nope. A couple of them have been built and they’re just sitting there unpowered
Imagine you had infinite money and no consequences
I mean you could like— build entire city size data centers right?
But this infinite money goes away if you’re not building them
So your choices are to build something that you don’t need or to have no money
You see, humans were not very evolved or adapted to their planet, given their own social structures

- Comment on Do you cheat in video games? 1 month ago:
It’s fun cheating in single player games after you’ve already finished them the normal way.
Cheating otherwise robs you of the experience.
Cheating if the game is simply too hard or unplayable, is also acceptable.
Cheating in online games? Especially against other people? You’re an asshole.

- Comment on i enjoy using drugs and that will never change 2 months ago:
I had this exact, acute thought as I was going up the sweaty people filled stairs into a rave hall.
“What the hell am I doing” and also: “Would I do this if I were 53?”
I looked down at my hard abs and skin-tight shirt and had a bit of a Zen moment, thinking: “Youth is wasted on the young. You’re young. Enjoy this opportunity.”
I was 21, I danced and partied my heart out that night and I regret nothing.
