    so what linux distro do you use?

    Personally I haven't changed, still use Linux Mint (DE: Cinnamon) on my laptop and it works perfectly fine for my school needs, and has the additional benefit of not giving the trouble of how Windows 11 did with my 8 gigs of RAM. Why not join the Linux League group here on GBAtemp? There is an...

    Prefer Operating system?

    Personally I use Windows 11 on my desktop for gaming, might have gone with Windows 10 instead but because I decided to go with 12th gen Intel I had to use the former for e-core support tho it's been pretty good so far so no complaints. As for my laptop I've decided to daily drive Mint mainly...

    Hardware Apple got mac os running....

    Nice hackintoshing, I heard you can learn a lot from the experience and for those hobbyists it can be well worth it. Like to do something of that nature sometime myself once I acquire the proper knowledge to do so.

    Gaming Hardware xbox series x is emulation masterpiece

    Oh yeah, having built my own PC, it makes me giddy playing Super Mario Odyssey or using RPCS3 on my system, not only could it be something that I'd see myself doing five years ago in my wildest dreams, it actively makes me feel so powerful imao.

    This is true, along with Dumbledore I frankly find myself pissing at night thinking about those two, their power to stop my world domination gives me the chills!

    Game deals

    This is good stuff, thank you so much for making this thread and especially omitting gray key sites like G2A, I will be looking forward to see what happens in the future.

    Your Big Dream

    My dream is to be happy, at least have money to afford gaming related stuff and pizza. If I could get that out of life then I'd be content.

    Hacking TheFlow has discovered a major exploit called bd-jb for PS3, PS4, and PS5, can be used to load game backups burned to discs

    I mean if you're specifically taking about people who abuse homebrew to cheat in online games then yeah, you have a point. It sucks because those types of people are ruining online functionality for those who just want to hack their consoles for getting themes or whatever, so I still see why...

    Hacking TheFlow has discovered a major exploit called bd-jb for PS3, PS4, and PS5, can be used to load game backups burned to discs

    Yeah, homebrew is great but one of the biggest unfortunate disadvantages is that it's too risky for most to install cfw on PS5, let alone run backups if you still want online support. Now don't get me wrong, it's still always possible to be careful but overall the better thing when hacking...

    Post a picture of your desktop!

    I mean I know what you're trying to say with DRM free gaming only having one advantage to it but to me at least it sort of rubs me the wrong way, like it's insignificant (even though I know that's not what you're trying to do). This part intrigues me the most, I do like the promise of having...

    Post a picture of your desktop!

    Ohh Fedora, nice stuff Catboy! Meanwhile I've recently switched to Linux Mint Cinnamon as my daily driver on my laptop (for now, at least). On the bottom is what it currently looks like, never did any ricing on it but added a Gray Fox wallpaper to it if that makes it special in any way.

    Post a picture of your desktop!

    It's always nice seeing people supporting physical media, that I'll commend. Nowadays I'm not into physical media as much, (especially with the coronavirus pandemic exacerbating that for me) but I do realize the importance of owning your own media and opposing DRM. Suppose I do host a Plex...

    Primary Web Browser?

    I used to use Librewolf a lot on Windows 11 before switching to Linux Mint (Cinnamon) on my laptop. I've only used Mint for a few days but right now I'm trying to contemplate my opinions as regular Firefox isn't private by default and Librewolf sometimes breaking sites and not saving my...

    Which Call of Duty Game should I play?

    Hell yes. I beat the game a while back and I gotta say it's pretty good, main thing for me is the violence and grittiness of the ww2 atmosphere that I haven't seen in other COD games myself, biting criticism I have is week characters (aside from Reznov and Chernov) imo. Honestly I would...

    Gaming POLL: Do you use a vpn?

    I see then, while speed does matter for me it's also the torrent features that the VPN supports so it's not entirely off the table for me. But that would mean being an actual good company that respects your privacy and why bother doing that when you can make a shitload of cash seeing/selling...

    Gaming POLL: Do you use a vpn?

    Yeah that's what I hear from the communities I follow on Reddit as well. I'd have to do some more research for myself honestly but what I'm looking for is better seeding capabilites and especially faster downloading speeds.

    Gaming POLL: Do you use a vpn?

    Personally I have a VPN mainly because I have a big name ISP in Canada that tracks when you pirate shit (in terms of torrenting) here at least, aren't invested in private trackers/usenet anyways for now. My VPN vendor is expressvpn as of writing although I hear mullvad looks good with it's port...

    Piracy: Common Myths

    I think the fact that it's convenient for you to pirate a film like Dune highlights just how bad streaming services had gotten. In a way streaming services are the very thing they swore to destroy, which was killing off the need to use cable/piracy when you could pay for something so...

    Metroid prime 4 I wouldn't be surprised if that title will be a SwitchU title (here's hoping Nintendo won't go with such a ridiculous name again)
