  Assuming they meant in their country, and that their country is USA, bottom 10% as of 2023 was $15-18K. dqydj.com/2023-income-percentile-calculator/

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Silent Hill 2 (remake) now on GOG⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think I’ve seen any UE5 game that’s been released with traversal stutter have it fixed… so, I presume not as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows Is Adding AI Agents That Can Change Your Settings⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  No shit… If you want to solve the common frustration of not being able to find settings, maybe don’t put half of them in a settings app and the other half in the control panel, and then rename and move all of them every year.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PewDiePie: I installed Linux (so should you)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Doesn’t change the fact that I would love to get off of Windows but still rely on it! I am a technical person and have discovered that currently Linux is just not an option for my needs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PewDiePie: I installed Linux (so should you)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I DJ on twitch, but haven’t found software that’s compatible with my hardware, and I also do it on VRchat which has anti-cheat and so it can’t run at all. There are other smaller things but that’s the deal breaker.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PewDiePie: I installed Linux (so should you)⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah every thread is basically “lol bro just use Linux, skill issue”… I’m very comfortable with Linux, shell scripting and all those things. Been doing is almost 30 years. There are a wide range of things that are just not supported, which makes it a non-starter for a lot of people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PewDiePie: I installed Linux (so should you)⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Or rely on software that is not available in Linux and can’t be emulated, which unfortunately applies to both my work and personal use

  I can teach you how for $300

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Baldur’s Gate 3 is getting 12 new subclasses next week⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  How can you have that much time without having finished act 1? Is it from multiple saves? You can totally clean out everything there is to do in act 1 in about a third of that time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ubisoft says you "cannot complain" it shut down The Crew because you never actually owned it, and you weren't "deceived" by the lack of an offline version⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Having watched all of Mythic Quest, I had no idea what you meant and looked it up - I didn’t realize there was any connection. How does the show promote Ubisoft?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is this working?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Haha yes vrchat can be a weird and terrifying place. There are normal people, but it takes a lot of work to find them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cloudflare announces AI Labyrinth, which uses AI-generated content to confuse and waste the resources of AI Crawlers and bots that ignore “no crawl” directives.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The problem is, how? I can set it up on my own computer using open source models and some of my own code. It’s really rough to regulate that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Life isn't easy if your last name is 'Null' as it still breaks database entries the world over⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That is something I’ve had to do on rare occasions because people set up and store info in stupid ways…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube ‘Premium Lite’ is for those that already have a music subscription⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  And that’s why I sideload a modified YouTube that includes ad blockers, sponsor segment skipping and background playback, among other things.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why We Love to Get Lost in Games: The Enduring Appeal of Metroidvanias⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s a good point, they all have item or ability gated progression with backtracking and alternate routes. The more I think about the question, the less of an answer I have…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do most people still use computers, or do people only use a smartphone as their main/only device?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Thank you for the detailed response! I have a bigscreen beyond and have occasionally tried to use it with virtual desktop for my two 1440p monitors, though I still vastly prefer a real monitor. Though, it works great when my cats want to be in the way :) I just ask because the refresh rate is 90Hz, snd so that kind of throughput seemed very high. Your point about the micro-movements in a way adding to that resolution makes sense though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do most people still use computers, or do people only use a smartphone as their main/only device?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What headset do you use that can output that resolution at that refresh rate?
